I just struggled for a few days with a related and pretty annoying issue,
and my conclusion might help to isolate the case. Everytime I run the "cordova
run android" command line, it detects some non-existent conflict for the
AndroidManifest and deletes one by one every permission added by the
phonegap-barcodescanner used by my app, along with one of the "edit-config"
from the cordova-plugin-push (this is what made me question everything)
I thought that maybe I add something written in my config.xml file that
really made a conflict, but I have no permission change in it, so the content
of the config.xml alone is not the issue here.
I tried the verbose option but it does not explicitly tell what is in
conflict, so i tried to comment everything I have in my config.xml file, and I
figured out that the conflict comes from trying to merge config into the
application as follow :
```xml
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge"
target="/manifest/application">
<application android:theme="@style/AppTheme"/>
</edit-config>
```
It seems also relevant to say that I do not use the option "--force" when
adding a plugin, but I still only have this small warning line "Conflict found,
edit-config changes from config.xml will overwrite plugin.xml changes"
everytime I use the "cordova run android" command, ONLY when I have the
previous merge in my config.xml file. If I comment it, no conflict is detected
and all my permissions/edit-config stay in the generated AndroidManifest.
So, **TLDR**, my permissions are deleted when doing `cordova run
android`command by the fact that I have an edit-config trying to merge an
atrribute to my application tag. The edit-config is then done, but every run
command deletes some line from the generated AndroidManifext.xml.
**EDIT ** To solve my problem, but it might not be possible for everybody, I
moved my "faulty" edit-config from the config.xml, to the plugin.xml of one of
my home made utils plugin. With that and so far, I have no warning when adding
the plugin and everything is in my generated AndroidManifest.
