Im on android right now…havent tested it with ios yet.
I could be completely off with this but i think it is caused because my app got too big to be loaded by wifi in less than 5 seconds because when i watch the server logs files are still transfered when the error message is thrown
I would also like to increase the timeout period if that parameter is configurable. By adding Crosswalk to the project I increased the size, so (I suspect) that the app can’t load within 5 seconds.
Finally managed to resolve this! In my case it was caused because I was trying to access the device plugin before device ready was called. I am not sure if this can be caused by trying to access other plugins too early but it is definitely caused with the device plugin. Enclosing the call in $ionicPlatform.ready(function () { … }) has removed the problem both in osx and windows platforms.
