Sencha Touch 2 + PhoneGap are not working on Android 4

[testvogel]

Hi,

my app is properly working on Android 2.3.x but not on Android 4. The problem is that every controller throws an

Unknown chromium error: -6

and I dont why this happens and how I can figure out what exactly it is.

Here you can see how Im starting my app and controllers:

function mainLaunch(){
    console.log("mainLaunch");
    Ext.Loader.setConfig({ enabled: true });

    Ext.application({
        name: 'MyApp',  
        appFolder: 'app',
        models: ['Customer'],
        controllers: ['MainController','ProfileController']    ,
        launch: function() {
            console.log('launch:');

        }
    });
}

I see the "mainLaunch" output but never see the "launch" output. If I delete the controllers the app launches properly (I see the "launch" output). However, I'm confused why this is working on every 2.x Android device but not on Android 4 (emulator as well as real device).

Are the files loading?

Tell me how I can debug this?

You can easily reproduce this issue by using any sencha example (I have it tested with the kiva example) and phonegap 1.2

Create a new Android project and try to start the sencha example in any webview:

import com.phonegap.DroidGap;

import android.os.Bundle;

public class EasyPaymentAppActivity extends DroidGap {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        super.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/index.html");
    }
}

any ideas or hints? Is this a sencha touch or phonegap issue?

ok... The problem is that the controller files cannot be found but I dont know why, because on android 2.3 they will be found

log output:

Sounds like a PhoneGap/Android issue. The files probably are not dynamically loading correctly (no permission, looking in the wrong place).

To rectify this, you could use our tools to build your application (which is what you should do in production anyway).

My application needs some device capabilities like nfc and camera, so i have to use phonegap :/

[rdougan]

Yes, the above blog post explains how to package your application, as in, compress all the files into one. Not 'package' as in, natively.

I could only find the mac os version. Is there any windows or linux version available?

[rdougan]

Sorry, there is only a OSX version at this time as it is a beta.

Hi,

the SDK tools are not working for me :/ I always only get an empty app.jsb3 file without any error messages

I'm trying to create the app.jsb3 file like this:

sencha create jsb -a http://192.168.137.1:800/index.html -p app.jsb3

The result is an "empty" app.jsb3 file with

...
files: 
    all-classses.js
    app.js
...

My app uses some native functions by using phonegap and also a phonegap plugins. Maybe this is a problem? I dont get any error output but the app.jsb3 file looks wrong and also the build command only creates an empty .js file

happy new year!

greets,
testvogel

edit:

I'm initlizing the sencha app in a function which is called after the "deviceready" event of phonegap.
