I have an app that works 100% when running the phonegap windows program and then the phonegap app on my iphone.
However when I upload it to phonegap build then add the app to my phone via itunes the app is just a blank white screen.
Im using jquery mobile, socket.io and geolocation if any of that matters. Is it a whitelist issue?
What could be causing this?
I'm zipping the folder of my app that has a directory like this:
.cordova
hooks
platforms
plugins
www
config.xml
and here is my config file:

I need to blog this, so i don't have to repeat this answer again and again.
You cannot use Phonegap Desktop App with Phonegap Build.
Phonegap Desktop App uses Phonegap CLI, so if you want to use Phonegap Desktop App you need to stay with Phonegap CLI.
If you want to use Phonegap Build, then forget what you have done and start over OR make Minor modifications to move Phonegap Desktop App to Phonegap Build. To be clear, the difference is minor, but enough to keep tripping you.
Also, you will not be able to use Phonegap Developer App as that is meant to work with Phonegap Desktop App. You cannot use either CLI or Build with Developer App.
FWIW: I've been trying to get Phonegap to fix this. Here is the report on the issue.
Here are the minor modifcations:
For Phonegap Build, index.html and config.xml both sit in the root directory and there is no www/ directory. No other items are required, and infact you want to remove anything not list in index.html before uploading to build.phonegap.com.
For Cordova/Phonegap CLI, config.xml is in the root directory and index.html sits in the www/ directory

I have a Nuxt JS / Cordova 8.0.0 project with a few plugins. I'm trying to add custom splash screens to the project, and have added them inside of res/screen/android/
Every time I try to compile the project, I get the following error when building for Android:
`Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/project-beacon/cordova/platforms/android/app/src/main/res/drawable-xhdpi-portrait: Error: Invalid resource directory name`
This is really frustrating.
I have my config.xml file setup as follows:
<platform name="android">
<preference name="SplashMaintainAspectRatio" value="true" />
<icon density="ldpi" height="36" src="res/icon/android/icon-36-ldpi.png" width="36" />
<icon density="mdpi" height="48" src="res/icon/android/icon-48-mdpi.png" width="48" />
<icon density="hdpi" height="72" src="res/icon/android/icon-72-hdpi.png" width="72" />
<icon density="xhdpi" height="96" src="res/icon/android/icon-96-xhdpi.png" width="96" />
<splash density="port-xhdpi" src="res/screen/android/screen-xhdpi-portrait.png" />
<splash src="res/splash/android/Default#2x~universal~anyany.png" />

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS" />
</custom-config-file>
</platform>
Originally, I had a load of splash screens, but due to the error, I've removed them to see if it would fix it. I have tried changing the file names and everything.
You have 2 <platform name="android">
Also you have <splash src="res/splash/android/Default#2x~universal~anyany.png" /> which has no density, remove it.
I have an iOS app developed using Cordova (ios engine 4.4.0) in TestFlight. It all works great, except with the latest iOS 12 beta.
Users reported that the app restarts itself randomly on iOS 12 (iPhoneX). This happens randomly, possibly triggered by user interaction with the DOM, but not always.
I've tested on my own iPhone6S with iOS 12 and haven't reproduced it, so I wonder if it's specific to iPhoneX + iOS 12.
Users don't have a crash report for the app, which makes me think it's the WebView reloading the page (it's a single page app), rather than an actual app crash.
This doesn't happen on any other device or iOS version - has anyone else experienced this or have a solution?

We also hit this issue with our Cordova app, and it took us ages to solve.
After recently switching to wkwebview, a file uploader page in the app started reloading often before the file uploads completed. It only happened for users with iPhone X & iOS 12. In our case, changing a Bootstrap spinner control resolved things. Seems crazy... but once we modified the component, the problem went away.
What is wrong with my config files (OR ionic cordova setup); it can't find any platforms but I do have ios installed already, PLUS ionic tries to add and fails because it exists... The example below is from emulate, the same errors are generated by $ionic cordova platform add ios as well.
$ ionic cordova emulate ios

Ionic can't find the platform because the <engine> tag is missing in config.xml. Try cleaning up your setup a bit:
Run cordova platform rm ios (you may get an error that the platform is not added)
Remove the platforms folder if it still exists
Maybe also remove the plugins folder if you want them reinstalled
Remove all references related to the ios platform in package.json
Delete node_modules and package-lock.json
Then make sure cordova and ionic CLIs are up to date:
(sudo) npm install -g cordova#latest ionic#latest
Then restore everything step by step:
npm install
cordova platform add ios#4.5.1
I personally like to run the cordova commands just through the cordova CLI not via the ionic CLI (when running ionic cordova ... the ionic CLI just forwards cordova related commands to the cordova CLI, which can lead to errors). Just for building and running the app I use the combined commands because its more convenient.
I also noticed that you are using an old version of #ionic/app-scripts with the newest ionic-angular version. You should upgrade this too.
launch-external does not seems to work for iOS. but it works perfectly for android.
I am looking for a 'launch-external' equivalent for iOS, i am using cardova (version 3.7.0) and phoneGap online build tool.

I am using location.href in index.html to open the url in separte browser. This is working in Android as expected but not in iOS
In the documentation, launch-external is only mentioned in the Android section. That's probably why it doesn't work for iOS.
As an alternative, you could use the InAppBrowser plugin (don't be fooled by its name) to open certain links externally, but this requires you to rewrite those links to window.open calls, with the target parameter set to _system.
I tried all of these suggestions in a recent iOS build and the only thing that worked for me was the InAppBrowser plugin and changing the code to window.open(href,"_system");
I have an app that was rejected form the iTune store for:
We found that your app uses the iOS Advertising Identifier but does
not include ad functionality. This does not comply with the terms of
the iOS Developer Program License Agreement, as required by the App
Store Review Guidelines.
I have not put iAds in my app at all. I used PhoneGap Build to create the app. My code config.xml is:
