phonegap run android not working and no error message

Question

I had worked with Phonegap for a period of time and it workd good but yesterday I got stuck in a problem with installing the app on my device using command line:

\>>phonegap run android  
it return
[phonegap] executing 'cordova run android'...
[phonegap] completed 'cordova run android'
and no error message

But nothing happened the app as it does not get installed in my device nor open the emulator.

I try to create new project, update Phonegap, update android platform, update SDK and uninstall the phonegap and re-install it but nothing changed.

Answer 1

I was having the exact same problem. Adding this line to the config.xml file solved it for me:

<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="10" />

I found this solution after running it as a Cordova command cordova run android instead of a Phonegap command. The Cordova command gave the error below error:

Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared in library C:\Users\ecarriger\Desktop\test\platforms\android\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\android\CordovaLib\unspecified\debug\AndroidManifest.xml

Changing the minSdkVersion to 10 in the Android manifest that the error pointed to didn't work because the run process overwrites it.
