Cordova Android app has no internet access on SOME devices

Question

I ran into a strange problem and I can't find any solution how to fix it.

On some devices (not all), the app has no internet access. I can't reproduce the problem with any emulator configuration.

The list of devices with problems: - Galaxy S6 Edge, Android 5.0 - Galaxy S5, Android 5.0 - Galaxy Note, Android 4.1 - TrekStor tolino tab 8.9, Android 4.2 - Xperia L, Android 4.2

Anyone else there with such a strange problem? And please remember, only SOME devices has the problem, must of the installations runs as expected.

In the config.xml:

<access origin="*" />

In my manifest the settings are correct:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Answer 1

finally I solved the problem.

In config.xml I had a min. Android version included

<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="15"/>

which corrupted my Android build. After removing this, the app runs fine on all devices.
