    });

    fs.writeFileSync(locations.themes, themes.write({ indent: 4 }), 'utf-8');

    events.emit('verbose', 'Wrote out Android application themes to '   locations.themes);
}

on the splashScreenTheme.find function on foreach, can someone help me please?

CodePudding user response:

you must delete splash screen from config.xml from your app this link below

Actually, i did NOT solve the problem by now, but made a little step forward.

The error occurs in node_modules\cordova-android\lib\prepare.js in the method: updateProjectSplashScreen(...), because var splashScreenTheme is null, because theme (= style[@name="Theme.App.SplashScreen"]) is not found or var themeTargetNode is null, because theme item is not found.

I added the theme manually in themes.xml in platforms/android/app/src/main/res/values dir with the following content:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<resources>
    <style name="Theme.App.SplashScreen" parent="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.NoActionBar">
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/white</item>
        <item name="windowSplashScreenBackground">@color/cdv_splashscreen_background</item>
        <item name="windowSplashScreenAnimationDuration">200</item>
        <item name="postSplashScreenTheme">@style/Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar</item>
    </style>
</resources>

This solved the error during build, but the app crashes on splash screen, if it is started. I think i misconfigured the theme. I hope anyone here can correct the themes.xml file.

P.S.: Same problem was posted in ionic forum: https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/ionic-android-12-splash-error-while-adding-cordova-android-11/225896.
