Phonegap can't use whitelist

Question

I've just finished making a mobile application with phonegap. I'm using adobe build so i don't really have anything installed on my pc(Except for phonegap desktop app). My problem is, none of my ajax calls work because they can't reach my api and throw a 404. Here is my config.xml

    <widget xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:gap="http://phonegap.com/ns/1.0" id="com.phonegap.helloworld" version="1.0.0">
  <name>netter</name>

Here is one of my ajax calls

$.ajax({
            url: 'http://somesite.com/api/getData?id=' + code + '',
            type: 'GET',
            contentType: 'application/json',
            success: function (data) {
                var dtx = JSON.parse(data);
                for (var i = 1; i <= dtx.length; i++) {
                      // Do stuff
                }
            }
        });

I've also added this at the top of my scripts

$.support.cors = true;

Edit: Ajax error details.

I'm really lost right now.

Thanks

@Arefi,

1. CORS is not available on Phonegap and does NOT apply. CORS is for webbrowsers and servers
2. You can fix your issue one of two ways.
   1. Add a version to your config.xml , like this:
      <preference name="phonegap-version" value="3.5.0" />
   2. You can add the white list , which is the proper way after Cordova/Phongap 4.0.0 (or if you did not use a version - like you did)

You can add the white-list by reading the Phonegap Build Whitelist Guide

But you also want to read:
Top Mistakes by Developers new to Cordova/Phonegap
10. Not adding the new "white-list", "white-list plugin" parameters in config.xml AND "Content Security Policy"

Best of Luck
