Auto Hide Splashscreen issue in android in phonegap cli 7.0.1

[mobileias]

Hello

We are creating build using phonegap web site.

We use below phonegap cli <preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-7.0.1" />

also use latest splashscreen plugin

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-splashscreen" source="npm" version="4.0.3"/> <preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen" /> <preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="100000" /> <preference name="SplashShowOnlyFirstTime" value="false" />

We hide splash screen manually using js code. as we checked in android OS only device plugin prompt for Manage calls related permission. we use below plugin <plugin name="cordova-plugin-device" source="npm" version="1.1.3" />

when it shows below type http://prntscr.com/gg6trn

then splash screen automatic hide.

So can you please help us to resolve that issue ?

Hi @mobileias,

I am still not sure what your issue is. Could you explain further what is going on?

Issue is we have added code like in config file like

AutoHideSplashScreen false.

So as per plugin documentation we need to hide manually using js code like

navigator.splashscreen.hide();

Now in android when any permission prompt like https://prnt.sc/gg6trn

then splash screen automatic hidden . even we not call this function. navigator.splashscreen.hide();

Thanks in advance

Ok, I understand now. Unfortunately the way splash screens work it is essentially an alert box. So when the device permissions prompt comes up it will remove the splash screen, this is the expected behavior.

Another thing you could try is instead of prompting the permission on start up, you could try asking the user's permission when you actually need to access that functionality. This might help to resolve the issue with the splash screen.

Lastly, what is really concerning here is that the device plugin is requesting access to make phone calls. It does not do this in any of our tests and could possibly be a bug in the plugin.
