Question

I use PhoneGap 1.5.0 Cordova for Android,
I modified PhoneGap Android official test/example project and tested it on two different phones.
I send Google geocoding requests but after a few iterations it just stops working.
the same code was ok with PhoneGap 1.4.1

Can you please explain this? Did you already found a solution?

Here is the code:

Geocoder: function() {
    var serviceurl = 'http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json', geocode, geocodeCoords, geocodeAddress;

    geocode = function(req, cb) {
        $.extend(req, {
            sensor : true,
            region : 'it',
            language : 'it'
        });
        var qs = $.param(req);
        $.ajax({
            type: 'GET',
            url : serviceurl,
            data : qs,
            success : function(d) {
                cb(d.results, d.status);
            },
            error : function(xhr, status, e) {
                alert('geocode error: ' + status);
                console.log(e);
                cb([], status || 'http error');
            }
        });
    };

    geocodeCoords = function(coords, cb) {
        var req = {
            latlng : [coords.latitude, coords.longitude].join(',')
        };
        geocode(req, function(arr, s) {
            cb(arr, s);
        });
    };

    geocodeAddress = function(addr, cb) {
        var req = {
            address : addr
        };
        geocode(req, function(arr, s) {
            cb(arr, s);
        });
    };

    /*
     * 1: obj.coords => { latitude: 0, longitude: 0 } 2: obj.address =>
     * string
     */
    this.geocode = function(obj, cb) {
        if (obj && obj.coords) {
            geocodeCoords(obj.coords, cb);
        } else if (obj && obj.address) {
            geocodeAddress(obj.address, cb);
        } else {
            throw new Error('geocoder failure: nothing to geocode');
        }
    };

    return this;
}

Answer 1

here the explaination and the fix:
Override Android Backbutton behavior only works on the first page with PhoneGap (last post: link to google group post).

The problem is in the cordova scripts for androids, line 4831:
change

channel.onNativeReady.subscribe(_self.boot);

with

channel.onNativeReady.subscribeOnce(_self.boot);
