Ian Clelland commented on CB-6050:
----------------------------------

I think, though, that the root problem is that what used to be an absolute file 
path on the device ({{/sdcard/testCordova/file/file.pdf}}) is now treated as a 
URL, which doesn't resolve.

One solution is to change the download location to 
"file:///sdcard/testCordova/file/file.pdf" -- that should work with the current 
versions of File and FileTransfer.

Another solution, which has been discussed before, is to treat any url 
beginning with a "/" as an absolute file path, for backwards compatibility. 
That makes it difficult to upload a file using a relative URL, but there should 
be a way around that.

> FileTransfer.download always return error 3
