I'm building an app using cordova, which is just an webview from my website.
I just want to refresh my website when the user resume the app.
I followed the documentation from phonegap, which says I need to wrap my resume event in a SetTimeOut function: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/cordova_events_events.md.html#resume
Here is my code:
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
document.addEventListener("resume", onResume, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
var ref = window.open("http://m.estadao.com.br/?load-all=true", "_self", "location=no", "closebuttoncaption=Return", "EnableViewPortScale=no");
}
function onResume() {
setTimeout(function() {
onDeviceReady();
}, 0);
}
I do know why, but it's working properly in Android, but iOS seems to do not regonize this "resume"
Any idea ?
I solved it just changing "_self" to "_blank".
When we use "_self", the Javascript loose the context of window.

I have a webview from my website working very well in my app. What I'm trying to do now is asking users when they hit Android Back Button if they really want to leave the app.
I'm using the InAppBrowser plugin. Here's my code.
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
// Cordova is ready
function onDeviceReady() {
navigator.splashscreen.show();
var ref = window.open("http://m.estadao.com.br", "_self", "location=no");
ref.addEventListener('loadstop', function(){
ref.executeScript({
code:
document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
function onBackKeyDown() {
navigator.notification.confirm(
"Tem certeza que deseja sair?",
function(buttonIndex){
confirmExit(buttonIndex);
},
"Aviso",
"Ok, Cancel"
);
}
function confirmExit(stat){
if (stat == "1"){
navigator.app.exitApp();
} else {
window.open("http://m.estadao.com.br", "_self", "location=no", "zoom=no");
}
};
});
});
}
And here is the link of plugin
http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/2.7.0/cordova_inappbrowser_inappbrowser.md.html#executeScript
Any idea what can i do to make it work ? Thanks!
I am assuming that your problem is back-button event is not getting triggered once the webview loads. This is a common problem with using in-appbrowser plugin for webview. It loads page but we loose control over the page. Use the following plugin
https://github.com/Wizcorp/phonegap-plugin-wizViewManager/ for webView. It creates a custom webview inside your phonegap app and you still have control over back button and you can also define the size of the webView
I am developing a phonegap application in ONSEN-UI, in which I want to disable the android back button handler. I've tried Phonegap's backbutton hadler code to disable it. But I am unable to do it. Is there any other way to do it?
My Code:
document.addEventListener('deviceready', onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
document.addEventListener("backbutton", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
}, false);
}
This works for me in onsen2...I have it in my app.js
ons.ready(function () {
ons.disableDeviceBackButtonHandler();
document.addEventListener('backbutton', function () {}, false);
});
This is explained in Onsen UI docs: http://onsen.io/reference/ons.html#methods-summary
Just use the method ons.disableDeviceBackButtonHandler() and it will be disabled. You can use ons.enableDeviceBackButtonHandler() to enable it again.
Try to leave the function empty. This works perfect for me.
document.addEventListener("backbutton", androidBackKey, false);
var androidBackKey = function(){
//stay empty
};
Try this:
function onLoad()
{
document.addEventListener("deviceready",onDeviceReady,false);
}
function onDeviceReady()
{
document.addEventListener("backbutton",noth,false);
}
function noth()
{
}
Use this if you're using a navigator:
myNavigator.getDeviceBackButtonHandler().setListener( stopButton );
function stopButton(e) {
try{
myNavigator.popPage();
}
catch (err){
// event.callParentHandler();
console.log( "Stopping...." + e);
}
}
It's another listener handled by ONSEN-UI itself that quit the app. So add a listener attached to document will not stop the app from exiting. To understand it's flow, you may check out onsenui_all.js to check out the source code.
If someone useing onsenUI with VueJS
put this code in app's created or mounted method.
this.$ons.ready(() => {
this.$ons.disableDeviceBackButtonHandler();
document.addEventListener("backbutton", e => {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
}, false);
});
If you've been looking for what I'm looking for, that is disable Android back button exiting the app altogether back to launcher, but preserve back button functionality across the app (to back out to main menu or close a dialog for example), you may do it using that method:
ons.setDefaultDeviceBackButtonListener(function(event) {});
This method overrides default action (which would be normally executed if there's nothing other action to execute), which is normally to close the app in case of Cordova.
Source and more examples: https://onsen.io/v2/guide/cordova.html#device-back-button (there's example there that can show confirmation dialog and exit the app if user says yes)
I have a sencha app and launch in Android with phonegap. In my controller config.js I do window.open() when the user push a button and I add the Event Listener for 'loadstop' but I don't receive the event never.
onDeviceReady: function(){
var manual = window.open('resources/manual/manual.html', '_blank', 'location=no');
manual.addEventListener('loadstop', function() { alert('start'); });
},
goToManual: function () {
document.addEventListener("deviceready", this.onDeviceReady, false);
}
thanks for the help and sorry for my English
I guess that you are using the default JS method window.open. Since sencha mixes up things
in that case, I don't think you can add listeners or make changes if you are working on a mobile device.
So use this instead to make sure your call uses Cordova plugin:
var manual = null;
Cordova.exec(manual = window.open('resources/manual/manual.html', '_blank', 'location=no'));
The app crashes for me a few seconds after opening the page though.
I am having problem with Android's back button in my phonegap application.
Each time i press back it closes the whole application. Below is the codes that I have written. I refered to Phonegap API documentation for 2.2.0 here : http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/cordova_events_events.md.html#backbutton
In the JS file:
function onLoad() {
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
}
function onDeviceReady()
{
document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
}
function onBackKeyDown() {
alert("back button");
}
HTML File:
<body onload="onLoad()">
All of the other functions are working except for the android physical back button. When I press back, it does not prompt me with an alert of "back button" but it just exits the whole application.
What am I doing wrong or did I miss something out?
Thank you.
Regards,
Amanda
Are you certain that the onDeciveryReady() is invoked? Try adding a console.log(""); and check in logcat that you actually get to the onDeviceReady.
I had no problem overriding the back button with your example.
Make sure your javascript file import is correct and that you are using the cordova.js file for Android and not some other platform.
As a side note, overriding certain buttons, like the Back button may be confusing for the user, if you plan to add some sort of "Exit Confirm?" dialog that should be fine but making it to something completely different than what is usually does is not recommended.
Do this.
function onLoad() {
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
}
function onDeviceReady()
{
document.addEventListener("backbutton", function(ev){
ev.preventDefault();
ev.stopPropagation(); // ev is event
}, false);
}
I am developing a phonegap android app, where I have initially disabled the back button of device using this, its working
document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKey, false);
function onBackKey(){
}
But, when I click on a button in my app to goto facebook login page, I want the back button to be enabled. I tried to remove event listener but it didn't work
funtion f_click(url, width, height){
document.removeEventListener("backbutton", onBackKey, false);
//some link to start facebook
}
I also used
document.removeEventListener("backbutton", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); }, false);
But I am getting this error every time, cordova is not defined. Why?
Don't forget to call the "deviceready" event.
From phonegap doc :
This is a very important event that every Cordova application should
use.
Cordova consists of two code bases: native and JavaScript. While the
native code is loading, a custom loading image is displayed. However,
JavaScript is only loaded once the DOM loads. This means your web
application could, potentially, call a Cordova JavaScript function
before it is loaded.
The Cordova deviceready event fires once Cordova has fully loaded.
After the device has fired, you can safely make calls to Cordova
function.
Try something like this :
var deviceReady = false;
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady()
{
deviceReady = true;
}
function f_click(url, width, height)
{
if(deviceReady)
{
document.removeEventListener("backbutton", onBackKey, false);
//...
}
}
