HI! i' have a phonegap application and for android-targetSdkVersion 27 works well. For android-targetSdkVersion 28 crash with background plugin. I put permissions in my config.xlm and dosen't work. Any someone have a solution?

config.xlm Head: `

 <platform name="android">
         <edit-config file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge" target="/manifest/application">
             <application android:usesCleartextTraffic="true" />

         </edit-config>


 </platform>

 <platform name="android">
         <edit-config file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge" target="/manifest/application">
             <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />

         </edit-config>


 </platform>`

This plugin doesn't update anymore. https://bitbucket.org/TheBosZ/cordova-plugin-run-in-background/src/master/ this fork works on android 9.

What is the change compared to this version?

[JohannesPertl]

This one works for me https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-background-mode-fixed

[ThorvaldAagaard]

On both IOS and Android? I have been testing a lot, and it seems that on Android it works for some time 5+ hours and then it suddenly stops for no apparent reason

[JohannesPertl]

Only on Android, I only use it for a simple timer app and didn't test it for more than a few minutes

[ThorvaldAagaard]

Could be interesting if you could test it running 24 hours

I think it is also related to what device you are using. https://dontkillmyapp.com/

I tried running it for 24 hours, it crashed after about 6. I'm using a Huawei phone, so that might be the reason

[ThorvaldAagaard]

It seems to be webview that is the problem. I have had an android native application running in the background for 3+ days now. But when starting the backgroundservice from a webview I ndver have seen it running more than 6-8 hours

So the Plugin is Buggy.

Ok but this new plugin are compatible whith phonegap?

[ThorvaldAagaard]

I am using the plugin https://bitbucket.org/TheBosZ/cordova-plugin-run-in-background/src/master/ and it has the same problems. It is working fine for some hours, then it stops

@JohannesPertl @ThorvaldAagaard it should work properly if this was used in your tests:

cordova.plugins.backgroundMode.on('activate', function() {
   cordova.plugins.backgroundMode.disableWebViewOptimizations(); 
});
