[jira] [Comment Edited] (CB-8584) InAppBrowser Unusable on Android 5.0.x Devices

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8584?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14351618#comment-14351618 ]

I'm now confident that it's a re-painting issues, not a reloading one.

It seems as though the in-app browser screen is repainted as (large?) resources are loaded into the DOM. For example, these resources might be  images, ad banners, embedded videos, etc. 

Excessive repainting also occurs on Android 5 after scrolling. 

On Android 4 devices this is not the case. The same resources might take a moment to be inserted into the DOM, but when they are, they just appear. No full browser re-paint.

Also, I noticed that this Plugin makes use of "setUseWideViewPort" which has issues in the current version of Android. This may or may not be related. See Android issue track issues:

>          Components: Plugin InAppBrowser
>         Environment: Android 5.0.X. Observed on a LG G3 running Android 5.0.1 as well as on the Genymotion Nexus 10 Android 5.0.0 emulator. Cordova version is 4.2.0. Cordova Android platform is version 3.6.4. In-App Browser plugin is version 0.6.0.

> The in-app browser continuously refreshes the page. These refreshes occur starting when the page is initially loaded but can also be trigger when attempting to scroll the content.
> I can't tell if the page itself is actually being re-fetched or if the screen is just re-painting itself over and over.
> These refreshed have made the in-app browser unusable on the tested Android 5.0.x devices.
