Cordova启动画面未隐藏在Android设备上，但应用程序在Chrome Webview中正常运行

Question

When running my Ionic 3 application on my Android (6.0.1) device, the app is stuck on Cordova splash screen, although I can use it through Chrome WebView (and it works just fine).

To make it even weirder the problem does not appear the first time I run the app after installing it, only after I close it and run it again (back button or swipe from task list).

Of course there is no error in the Chrome WebView console. I also tried to run:
navigator.splashscreen.hide();
in the console it does not work.

What I realized also is that any preference I set in config.xml regarding the splash screen is ignored when the problem happens. For example on first run:
<preference name="ShowSplashScreenSpinner" value="false" />
does work properly, there is no spinner and the splash screen hides after some time. If I run:
navigator.splashscreen.show();
in the console the splash screen shows again, and .hide() does hide it.

On subsequent runs the spinner shows regardless of the preference. Also even weirder:
navigator.splashscreen.show();
does show the splash screen without spinner (on top of the existing one I guess), and .hide() goes back to the splash screen with spinner.

What I tried so far without success:

• npm install -g cordova@latest
• npm install -g ionic@latest
• Updated dependencies in package.json to latest versions
• Remove node_modules and platform folder & run npm install again
• Run cordova platform rm android && cordova platform add android
• Delete package-lock.json and run npm install again
• Removed the splash screen plugin completely from my code, Cordova and package.json (and removed node_modules & platform folders), but the splash screen of death still shows!

Here is my environment:

cli packages:
    @ionic/cli-utils  : 1.13.1
    ionic (Ionic CLI) : 3.13.2
global packages:
    cordova (Cordova CLI) : 7.1.0
local packages:
    @ionic/app-scripts : 3.0.0
    Cordova Platforms  : none
    Ionic Framework    : ionic-angular 3.7.1
System:
    Android SDK Tools : 26.1.1
    Node              : v7.2.0
    npm               : 5.5.1
    OS                : Windows 10

And my package.json and config.xml if it helps.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

After starting from a new project, copying my src/ folder, carefully installing all plugins and testing the app I found out that the issue was caused by Ionic Pro plugin.

The following fixed it: ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-ionic --save
