Xamarin Forms - Highlight route for WinPhone 8.1 part - windows-phone-8.1

Question

Since a long time, I'm trying to make work a polyline for crossplateform using.
I did it and it works well, I followed the Map Control tutorial in first, and then Highlight a Route on a Map tutorial.
I then update the code to make it reloads if a any changes comes, however, I'm getting an issue and I couldn't figure it out... It does works for Android & iOS.
polyline.Path = new Geopath(coordinates); throws Catastrophic failure (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))
The problem is that my two others renderer (Android & iOS) works.. Maybe something isn't possible because I work with WinPhone8.1 unlike the tutorial, which is UWP.
public class CustomMapRenderer : MapRenderer
{
MapControl nativeMap;
CustomMap formsMap;
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Map> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (e.OldElement != null)
{
nativeMap = Control as MapControl;
}
if (e.NewElement != null)
{
formsMap = (CustomMap)e.NewElement;
nativeMap = Control as MapControl;
UpdatePolyLine();
}
}
protected override void OnElementPropertyChanged(object sender, System.ComponentModel.PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
base.OnElementPropertyChanged(sender, e);
if (this.Element == null || this.Control == null)
return;
if (e.PropertyName == CustomMap.RouteCoordinatesProperty.PropertyName)
{
UpdatePolyLine();
}
}
private void UpdatePolyLine()
{
if (nativeMap != null)
{
var coordinates = new List<BasicGeoposition>();
foreach (var position in formsMap.RouteCoordinates)
{
coordinates.Add(new BasicGeoposition() { Latitude = position.Latitude, Longitude = position.Longitude });
}
var polyline = new MapPolyline();
polyline.StrokeColor = Color.FromArgb(128, 255, 0, 0);
polyline.StrokeThickness = 5;
polyline.Path = new Geopath(coordinates);
nativeMap.MapElements.Add(polyline);
}
}
}
I also read that a key is needed, so maybe I doesn't use this key in a good way.. I tried with UWP Public Key and WinPhone8.X and earlier Key, but without success too..
Does someone has an idea? This part a really big problem in my app..
Thank in advance !

After a long time, I found why it didn't works...
If you're doing like me, if you do a HttpRequest to something as Google Direction API, then the result will comes after the first passage in the OnElementChanged().
Because formsMap.RouteCoordinates isn't null but empty, the Catastrophic failure (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED)) is thrown..
This is the good CustomMapRenderer for PolyLine use

using PROJECT.UWP;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Windows.Devices.Geolocation;
using Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.Maps;
using Xamarin.Forms.Maps;
using Xamarin.Forms.Maps.UWP;
using Xamarin.Forms.Platform.UWP;
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(CustomMap), typeof(CustomMapRenderer))]

public class CustomMapRenderer : MapRenderer
{
MapControl nativeMap;
CustomMap formsMap;
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Map> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (e.OldElement != null)
{
nativeMap = Control as MapControl;
}
if (e.NewElement != null)
{
formsMap = (CustomMap)e.NewElement;
nativeMap = Control as MapControl;
UpdatePolyLine();
}
}
protected override void OnElementPropertyChanged(object sender, System.ComponentModel.PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
base.OnElementPropertyChanged(sender, e);
if (this.Element == null || this.Control == null)
return;
if (e.PropertyName == CustomMap.RouteCoordinatesProperty.PropertyName)
{
UpdatePolyLine();
}
}
private void UpdatePolyLine()
{
if (formsMap != null && formsMap.RouteCoordinates.Count > 0)
{
List<BasicGeoposition> coordinates = new List<BasicGeoposition>();
foreach (var position in formsMap.RouteCoordinates)
{
coordinates.Add(new BasicGeoposition() { Latitude = position.Latitude, Longitude = position.Longitude });
}
Geopath path = new Geopath(coordinates);
MapPolyline polyline = new MapPolyline();
polyline.StrokeColor = Windows.UI.Color.FromArgb(128, 255, 0, 0);
polyline.StrokeThickness = 5;
polyline.Path = path;
nativeMap.MapElements.Add(polyline);
}
}
