Joshua Walsh commented on CB-6991:
----------------------------------
In my testing this issue occurred on all mobile platforms.
Make a simple webpage. No external scripts, no dependencies or includes. In the
body, make a div with an id of 'test' and immediately below that make a script
block:
document.getElementById('test').innerText = typeof(window.console);
Execute this on a desktop browser. You should see 'object' on the page. Execute
on a mobile device and you should see 'undefined' instead.
I was able to reproduce this issue on all of operating systems above. I used
the Firefox app on Android, and it's irrelevant which browser I used on iOS and
WP as they are all forced to use the same engine anyway.
As for buying a cheap device, you can use Windows Phone 8.0 SDK to make a WP8
emulator for free. Install the SDK, launch Visual Studio, make a new Windows
Phone 8.0 App project and click on the launch emulator option. The browser is
properly emulated to use the exact same engine as present on a real Windows
Phone.

> Key: CB-6991

> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: weinre
> Environment: Windows Phone 8.0, iOS, Android
> Reporter: Joshua Walsh
> Assignee: Patrick Mueller
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: easyfix, javascript
> Original Estimate: 10m

> I couldn't work out where to submit a pull request, so I'm doing an issue
> report instead. Additionally, this issue applies to version
> 2.0.0-pre-HH0SN197 of Weinre, but I don't know which version of Cordova that
> maps to.
> This issue has been a massive pain to debug, as the issue is not present on
> desktop computers and there are no debugging tools on mobile devices, hence
> why I need Weinre in the first place! In fact, the issue is even more
> specific than that: The issue affects all browsers WITHOUT debugging tools.
> The error is: "Unable to set property __original of undefined or null
> reference." The issue occurs on line 172 of Console.amd.js. In order to fix
> it, I added the following lines of code above line 168:
> if(!window.console)
> {
> window.console = {};
> }
> I'm sure there's a more elegant way of solving this, but it does the trick.
> Good luck!
