Is Android + PhoneGap/Cordova always a headache? -

-

i've been developing mobile app both ios , android. due time/budget constraints, selected phonegap/cordova mobile app framework write once , deploy both platforms.

this plan has worked fine ios, we're finding android's browser/engine kind-of piece of garbage (to put nicely). every time add new feature, find 1 more thing android browser doesn't support, or partially supports, or supports randomly fail time time, etc. once code around android issues , things working smoothly, test on multiple devices/versions, , deploy new app android market, start getting emails , reports customers can't app work on device. have them uninstall/reinstall, reboot phone clear memory, etc., , device still consistently fails (and "fail", mean typically freezes and/or won't respond touch input - doesn't crash, or anything). app works fine people, there still quite few devices inexplicably fail.

i don't mean rant, i'm trying analyze whether android+phonegap path correct path us. specifically, i'd find out following:

  1. are there people out there having success android+phonegap app? or android+phonegap going problem on devices?
  2. am have more luck native android app (i've never attempted one)? or multiple devices/versions problem on android, native app?

1) yes. there are apps based on phonegap , works in devices.

2) depends on features of android going use. few versions not support features that's available new version.

btw, minimum required version have selected app? assume developing app android base version.

when creating new android project, have set minimum required platform version. if set higher , use app in lower version not support feature, results going different.

Android Prevent Bluetooth Pairing Dialog -

i'm developing internal application uses bluetooth printing. want bluetooth pairing occur without user input. have managed working trapping android.bluetooth.device.action.pairing_request broadcast. in broadcast receiver call setpin method, , pairing works ok, bluetoothpairingdialog displayed second or two, disappears - see link below. https://github.com/android/platform_packages_apps_settings/blob/master/src/com/android/settings/bluetooth/bluetoothpairingdialog.java since broadcast non-ordered, can't call abortbroadcast() , , wondering if there other way prevent pairing dialog appearing. can hook window manager in way? i haven't been able come way without modifying sdk. if you're oem, it's easy (i'm on 4.3): in packages/apps/settings/androidmanifest.xml, comment intent filter pairing dialog: <activity android:name=".bluetooth.bluetoothpairingdialog" android:label="@string/bluetooth_pairing_request"
