Hello!
I have created application with just one event Device ready. I test on iPhone4 iOS5,6,7, but alert is never showed. startScreen - Device Ready - alert("Alert");
Load works well, but not Device Ready Can anyone help with that? Many thanks!

Hello Ivan,

Better not to use Device Ready event in this case. The Device Ready - is used for other purposes before the page is shown.

You can use Load page or Show page event for this.

Alert was for test only.
I have to download file with FileTransfer and it has to be created when device is ready. I have tried to download after 30 sec screen was loaded, but error "FileTransfer is not defined" appears.
The problem is - I cannot get Device ready event.

Please explain with more details what you are trying to do?

I want to download image file with this javascript code:

var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("some_url");

var filePath = 'some_path';

//download a photo!
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
filePath,
successDownload,
failDownload
);

function successDownload(entry) {
alert("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
}

function failDownload(error) {
alert("An error has occurred: Code = " + error.code);
alert("upload error source " + error.source);
alert("upload error target " + error.target);
}

But I have error "FileTransfer is not defined".

Where do I have to add this code:
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, true);
function onDeviceReady() {
alert ('123');
}
?

Also I wanted to show alert when Device Ready event. I did following startScreen - Device Ready event - javascript with alert only. But alert was not showed, that means, that event was not called. I test on iPhone iOS 6,7. I have created new project and added following to get event startScreen - Device Ready event - javascript with alert only. But no result. It seems to me, that event is not catched for some reason. Load event works...

Are you testing with .ipa files on all these devices? Or how you testing this?

I test using barcode. I downloaded Barcode scanner application - scan code and run application with it. Is it wrong? Should I run .ipa file?

Hi Ivan,

Yes. For now, you just test on browser.

Yes, it was the problem. I downloaded XCode code and test on iPhone simulator and it works.

Thank you!!!
