Steve created CB-5446:
-------------------------
Summary: Custom URLs not supported since Cordova 3.0
Key: CB-5446
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5446
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Android
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Environment: Any Android device! Tested on Nexus S (2.3.6), Nexus 4
(4.3), Samsung Galaxy S (2.3.3), HTC One X (4.1.2)
Reporter: Steve
When I add a custom URL in my html page, for example:
<a href="myapp://test/testing.html">Link that opens another Android app</a>
If I click on the link, I am getting an error "Application Error" with the
content:
"The protocol isn't supported. (myapp://test/testing.html)"
This issue does not exist in Cordova 2.x. You can try this by cloning the
following github repo (https://github.com/Icenium/sample-custom-url-scheme) and
install the app on your Android device. Then from another Android app, create a
hyperlink that uses the custom URL scheme that the first app listens to e.g.
"myapp://".
Note: The sample app uses WebIntent plugin. The plugin itself works fine with
Cordova 3.0 and can be downloaded from
https://github.com/Initsogar/cordova-webintent.
P.S. I saw similar problem in this Jira issue
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3902. The fix to hardcode market://
seems to avoid fixing this GENERAL problem.
