I can see the device, but not any applications bellow it

[koyan]

So there is nothing to click "inspect" on to.
I have installed the plugin (using phonegap though, but it should be the same), and I can install the app to my device with adb install, and I can see the device in the devices of chrome://inspect , but there are no applications bellow it

(I can see applications just fine when I run the emulator).

Any ideas?

Do you have USB debugging turned on in the developer settings?

Of that's not the problem, I honestly don't know. I experienced something
similar with a Galaxy S4 yesterday. Adb drivers installed and everything,
but still nothing.

I have USB debugging turned on. I am waiting for a friend to bring me a different android device, to test it with that one.
Next step (tommorow) will be that I will try to find how/if I can add the code manually to the webview, to see if how it behaves from there. I will update here when I know more.

Thanks

Are you able to debug webpages in the Chrome browser with it?

I had not checked before. I downloaded chrome on it and checked it now, and it I can debug fine from the web browser when I open web pages in chrome.

One other thing came to mind (forgive me if it is this and I wasted your time):

I have not installed cordova, I have installed phonegap.
I installed your plugin with:
phonegap local plugin add https://github.com/jrstarke/webview-debug.git
(like I have installed all other plugins , no matter if the instructions were for phonegap or cordova).

According to the phonegap documentation it should not make any difference, since it is not a different product (yet).

I thought of one other thing. In the developer settings, there is a debug
app selection. I've never used it myself, but it's worth a try?

I only have 3 settings there on the phone I am testing:
a) Stay in normal condition (screen does not go to screen saver)
b) Debug via USB
c) Allow false locations

[koyan]

So, came back to this. I got hold of two more devices (a noname tablet and an htc vision). In all of them the same. I could debug chrome, but no app made from phonegap.
I will try to compile and install from a windows pc where I have the environment ready.

What version of Android are you running on the devices? This only works on 4.4 or higher for webview debugging.

[pille72]

Dont't know if this helps but, I was able to debug my phonegap application in chrome on an Nexus 5 with Android 4.4, without this plugin. On another device (Samsung Galaxy W 4.4 custom rom) I can't debug the app within chrome, only webpages...I wonder what your phonegap plugin does because it should work without in 4.4 ?

[jrstarke]

Thanks Philip,

Great catch. This plugin is really simple. All it does is sets the remote
debug flag on the webview. I looked into this yesterday for someone else,
and it turns out that the Cordova team added the same thing in 3.3.0, so
absolutely, not needed for >= 3.3.

Hello!!!!

I have the same problem here, but this are my results:

I am working on a Sony Xperia E, with Androind 4.1, now this is the thing, I am able to debug anything from the CHROME application in my phone to the CHROME in my computer, but I can't see the application I am developing, I added your plugin from phonegap build, I am compiling with Cordova 3.4.0 and still nothing, do you have any idea of why this might be happening? any help would be highly appreciated!

Anyone figured this out?

Can I debug release builds also using the chrome://inspect method?

I can see the device when I open the chrome://inspect window but I cannot see the app

Having the same problem, too.

Hello everyone I am using a local installation of WEINRE, that's how I can debug my code, I was never able to run this application

[MikeyBeLike]

found this issue trying to figure out why I could debug before and couldn't debug later via chrome. Problem was my build with a key (which is required for play store) didn't work, when I built with no key, could debug again
