   @domingosl @alex-steinberg @RonCan 
   Try this:
   ```
   const justTheNameOfTheFile = "file.txt";
   window.requestFileSystem(window.LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, async fs => {
         window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(window.cordova.file.dataDirectory, async dirEntry => {
             dirEntry.getFile(justTheNameOfTheFile, { create: true, exclusive: false }, fileEntry => {
                    // what you want to do
               }
         });
   });
   ```
   It is because ```window.cordova.file.dataDirectory``` returns ```file:///data/user/0/...``` and ```.getFile``` checks if there is a ```:``` in the string and throws the encoding error then. But with the solution above it worked for me.
