   > Hi! I have good news!
   > 
   > After searching all day on internet I found a solution for this problem.
   > 
   > All you have to do is include on AndroidManifest.xml the following 
key-pair-value on the application tag:
   > 
   > android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
   > 
   > On API 28 this attribute is set false for default(for security reasons), 
in previous Android API is was true.
   > 
   > As follow in Google documentation:
   > 
   > android:usesCleartextTraffic
   > Indicates whether the app intends to use cleartext network traffic, such 
as cleartext HTTP. The default value for apps that target API level 27 or lower 
is "true". Apps that target API level 28 or higher default to "false".
   > When the attribute is set to "false", platform components (for example, 
HTTP and FTP stacks, DownloadManager, and MediaPlayer) will refuse the app's 
requests to use cleartext traffic. Third-party libraries are strongly 
encouraged to honor this setting as well. The key reason for avoiding cleartext 
traffic is the lack of confidentiality, authenticity, and protections against 
tampering; a network attacker can eavesdrop on transmitted data and also modify 
it without being detected.
   > 
   > So, I think the apache cordova could anticipating this information for 
developers... And the most important is to update the whitelist plugin with 
this information.
