phonegap deviceReady not called in android
I found several other folks via a google search that experience the same problem. To summarize, the deviceReady function IS being called, it just is being called super-fast, before your handler is setup to respond to the event.
Here is how I fixed it for the spotmouth android app. I test for the presence of the navigator.device object. If it's not there, I register my callback. If there is already present, than the deviceReady event has already been called, and I just call it myself.
Html:
<body onload="onBodyLoad()">
</body>
Javascript:
function onBodyLoad()
{
//if phonegap, need to toggle these
if (typeof navigator.device == "undefined"){
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
} else {
onDeviceReady();
}
}
/* When this function is called, PhoneGap has been initialized and is ready to roll */
function onDeviceReady()
{
// do your thing!
runApp();
}
