Unfortunately, Cordova has stopped.

[Kenneth]

Android S6 Active, Telerik App and Cordova app have been working fine for weeks, now Telerik app runs normally but Cordova app crashes on opening.  I have three beginner sample apps (photo, grocery, and books) and an mobile app I developed, all crash the cordova app.  No entries are made in the log file.  All apps run on browser IDE and Visual Studio.

Uninstalled and reinstalled, rebooted phone, no help.

What to do?

Same issue here, I'm trying to open my project from the Platform Companion App, and when it redirects me to the Cordova Developer App I get "Unfortunately, Cordova has stopped." (Using Moto X Pure Edition, Android 6.0)

Any help is appreciated.

Also note I can build the app and install it with the QR Code and it works fine, so it is just the cordova app itself.

Hello Kenneth,

It sounds like a known issue which should be addressed in the near future.

In the meantime, you could build an application package and deploy it on a device. This will give you access to all the functionality the Developer app would and more.

Let me know should you have further questions or considerations.

Yes, I was able to build and deploy onto my device, but the Log view (colsole.log) is not populated in the telerik app with that method.  Is there a way to view to log?

Hello Kenneth,

I am unable to reproduce this faulty behavior on my end. Have in mind, that It is not possible to see device logs in the browser IDE, but you should be able to see them inside Visual Studio.

Having said that, can you acknowledge that your device is connected via cable and the Output window is set up to show output from your device? When testing I am able to see the console.log output in the Visual Studio Output view. For example:

[chromium] 10-12 12:55:09.297  1888  1888 I chromium: [INFO:CONSOLE(49)] "Testing console.log()", source: file:///data/user/0/com.telerik.mytestapp/files/12590FAA-5EDD-4B12-856D-F52A0A1599F2/app.js (49)

Additionally, to continue my attempt to recreate this behavior I would ask you to provide me with more information:

• Model of your testing device.
• Android version of your testing device.
• Visual Studio version.

I look forward to your reply.

Samsung S6 Active
Model: Samsung-SM-G890A
Android Ver: 6.0.1
VS is 2010 Ultimate.

I have not tried to connect via cable and debug on the device from VS, that is interesting...

Hi Kenneth,

To be able to see the console.log() output in Visual Studio you must use a cable connected device. Additionally, I am glad to inform you that we have updated the Cordova developer app and you should not be experiencing the original issue anymore. To make sure that you are using the latest version of the developer app you should:

1. Delete the Cordova developer app from your device.
2. Open the Telerik Platform Companion app.
3. Select Help & About and under Cordova select Install Dev Application.
4. In Google Play, you should select Install.

After following this steps you should have Cordova Developer app version 3.5.1 installed on your device.
 
Please, let me know if this is helpful and you can use the Developer app once again.

In my case, after the October 14 update of Cordova Developer App everything it's working again.

Thanks

RESOLVED - Yes, this is now working for me also.
