UPDATE: It is now solved!!! make sure all armv7 and armv7s for ios 6 on all in xcode. It worked.

Answer 1

For your project, set the build setting "Build Active Architecture Only" to yes.

(Maybe also set the the Architectures build setting to "Standard (armv7, armv7s)" for CordovaLib project.)

Answer 2

Had (as many others) the same problem, here's what I did:

1. Redid the Getting Started guide from Phonegap (including downloading and extracting the source again)
2. Same problem with the HelloWorld app
3. product - clean
4. Changed both the 'HelloWorld' and 'CordovaLib'-project (so not the Targets) according to james0n's answer, settings:

Architectures: Standard (armv7, armv7s)

Build Active Architecture only: Yes

and then it magically worked, I think steps 3 and 4 did it however.

Answer 3

Only need to remove armv6 from both YourProject and CordovaLib:

The consequences of doing this? Apparently, it's still working on iPhone 3GS, but not the previous versions..
