@rapropos and @Sujan12,
Problem solved now.

The problem was not the plugin… It was the package-lock.json! :astonished:

This small patch is the solution.
Then the plugin will be installed directly from package.json and not via package-lock.json.

I don’t know if the integrity hash is wrong or the resolved path. Maybe the version or the name is wrong. I don’t know.
I only know that it is fixed without this line.

package.json

"dependencies": {
    "cordova-plugin-device": "^1.1.6"
}

Thank you for your help and ideas!
