I've been looking into issues and I have seen this one:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8180
Right now the code to handle the tel links is inside the onPageStarted
if (url.startsWith(WebView.SCHEME_TEL)) {
try {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(url));
cordova.getActivity().startActivity(intent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException e) {
LOG.e(LOG_TAG, "Error dialing " + url + ": " +
e.toString());
}
}
But the problem is, it launchs the intent and try to open the web page, so
when you come back from the intent you see a "couldn't load the url" page
on the app.
I've tried to use the view.stopLoading() but it doesn't seem to stop it.
The issue only talks about the tel links, but I suppose that will happen
with sms, mailto and some other links.
So, I think a solution might be to move that code to
shouldOverrideUrlLoading function.
Is there any reason of doing this on the onPageStarted instead of using the
shouldOverrideUrlLoading?
