PhoneGap AJAX Calls NOT Working - December 2015
Question
Cross posted here: http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/topics/jquery-ajax-calls-all-of-the-sudden-do-not-work
This is a completely new bug as of the past week or two. Basically, I have an ajax call in the head of my index.html file in PhoneGap that errors out with a status code of 0. This was working as of ~2 weeks ago from this date (12/30/2015) and is suddenly not working. I have also confirmed that all AJAX calls are NOT working.
I have tried so many solutions and nothing is working.
I have tried:
meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="default-src *; style-src * 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; script-src * 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval';">
Added $.support.cors = true;
Added Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" to the htaccess file on the server
Tried different versions of the whitelist plugin.
Tried different forms of access origin settings.
Tried moving inline JS from index.html into a separate JS file.
Verified that the line of code works both in localhost and from a different web server through Chrome.
Please help.
Here is my config.xml:

Here is the script that is grabbing a page via AJAX:
<script>
var dev_mode = true;
if (dev_mode) {
alert('Development Mode Active - You will see popups used for debugging purposes.');
var scripts_url = 'http://dev.xxxxxxx/app/scripts';
} else {
var scripts_url = 'http://xxxxxxxxx/app/scripts';
}
jQuery.ajax({
type : "POST",
url : scripts_url,
success: function(html) {
jQuery('head').append(html);
},
error: function(xhr, status, err) {
if (dev_mode) {
alert('error getting scripts: ' + status);
alert('error getting scripts: ' + err);
alert('error getting scripts: ' + xhr.responseText);
alert('error getting scripts: ' + xhr.status);
alert('error getting scripts: ' + xhr.statusText);
alert('error getting scripts: ' + JSON.stringify(xhr));
}
}
});
</script>
The AJAX call errors out with a status of 0.
Answers:
Is this your first App?
Not my first PhoneGap app, but my first really complex one.
What is your target platform and their target versions?
Targetting all platforms besides Blackberry (tested working on iOS, Android, and WP before this AJAX bug)
Are you using CLI, SDK or Build ?
Build

Not sure if it helps in your problem, but for someone else having similar issue, this may be helpful:
I had exact same issue a few weeks ago. My solution was to add the following to my server:
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*";
"Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "X-Requested-With"
"Access-Control-Allow-Credentials", "X-Requested-With"
As I am using Express (NODE) server, I did by adding cors NPM package. And then, adding this before the server starts:
app.use(cors({credentials: true, origin: true}));

NOTE TO ALL: This app use an unrestricted whitelist filter, intended for development only.
THIS APP EXAMPLE IS INSECURE. IT IS UP TO YOU TO SECURE YOUR APP.
In addition, your app maybe reject by Google and Apple.
Thank you everyone for your help and I am glad to announce that I have fixed the issue. I am not 100% sure what fixed the issue as I have tried a number of solutions and I suspect that it was a little bit of everything. However, the first time I noticed the code actually work was when I removed the permissions line in the config.xml.
In summary, to fix the issue, I added:
- CSP
<meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="default-src *; style-src * 'unsafe-inline'; script-src * 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'"> - Removed permissions and features from config.xml. (New Config below)
- Waited for deviceready event before firing AJAX call
