Android SplashScreen Autohide FALSE not working

ionic-v1
1

AutoHideSplashScreen=“false” works on iOS and we then hide when ready. But whatever we do we can’t get android to keep the splash screen showing until we tell it to go.

Any ideas? Is this a problem with the android variant of the splash screen plugin?

Struggling with this on android.
Stupid workaround -
Increase the default splashscreen timeout in config.xml to an insane number say 120 secs (A number before which you will finish your background tasks and would want to hide the splash screen)
Now in ready function call when you done with your tasks.
$cordovaSplashscreen.hide();

Already tried setting it to 15 seconds - but will try going to a crazy extreme.

Same issue here,

I tried with a 60s delay,

    <preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen" />
    <preference name="splashScreenDelay" value="60000" />
    <preference name="SplashMaintainAspectRatio" value="false" />
    <preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false" />


// with in the code a navigator.splashscreen.hide();

I can see my image, but only for an instant and then it desapears…

I ended up with something like

  <preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen"/>
  <preference name="ShowSplashScreenSpinner" value="true"/>
  <preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false"/>
  <preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="150000"/>
  <preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="20"/>
  <feature name="SplashScreen">
    <param name="android-package" value="org.apache.cordova.splashscreen.SplashScreen"/>
    <param name="onload" value="true"/>
  </feature>

and I close the splashscreen

$cordovaSplashscreen.hide();
