window.plugins.touchid.isAvailable never returns on android device

[kevinswartz]

Thanks for this awesome plugin!

I'm having an issue calling isAvailable() for a certain android device. Neither of the callbacks ever get fired, so my app just hangs while waiting for it.

The device is a Samsung Galaxy 4 mini. Here's the device info (as reported by ionic.Platform.device() {"available":true,"platform":"Android","version":"4.4.2","uuid":"{...omitted...}","cordova":"6.1.2","model":"SAMSUNG-SGH-I257","manufacturer":"samsung","isVirtual":false,"serial":"{...omitted...}"}

Here's the code I'm using to make this call

      var checkSupport = function () {
        var defer = $q.defer();
        if (window.plugins) {
          window.plugins.touchid.isAvailable(function () {
            defer.resolve(true);
          }, function (msg) {
            defer.resolve(false);
          });
        }
        else {
          defer.resolve(false);
        }
        return defer.promise;
      }

Here's what comes back from ionic info Cordova CLI: 6.5.0 Ionic CLI Version: 2.2.2 Ionic App Lib Version: 2.1.7 ios-deploy version: 1.9.1 ios-sim version: 5.0.4 OS: macOS Sierra Node Version: v4.2.3 Xcode version: Xcode 8.3.3 Build version 8E3004b

It seems to work on all my ios devices, and some other android devices I've tried, just not this one. Thanks again for your help!

Hi Guys, Any word here? Thanks!

Hi guys, Here's my current workaround to this. There are some obvious issues here. Any word on a fix? Thanks!

     var checkSupportAndroid = function(){
        var defer = $q.defer();
        if (window.plugins) {
          var timer = $timeout(function(){
            defer.resolve(false)
          }, 200)
          window.plugins.touchid.isAvailable(function () {
            $timeout.cancel(timer);
            defer.resolve(true);
          }, function (msg) {
            $timeout.cancel(timer);
            defer.resolve(false);
          });
        }
        else {
          defer.resolve(false);
        }
        return defer.promise;
      }
