I’m getting the same problem with ios as well

Yea … it seems like they haven’t updated the checksum information in the latest release

This is a Cordova problem, there is a ticket on their jira.

I love the last entry from Cordova’s JIRA ticket.

“This has got me thinking that between this snafu, and the 3.6.0 rc snafu, we need to amend the release process to always publish to a test registry first and validate there before publishing to registry.npmjs.org.”

What do they do over there? Faith-based development and deployment?

They probably do what I do.

After speding some more time in the Googlesphere, here is what I found as workarounds…

11

I was able to repair my Ubuntu 14 terminal.
In my terminal setup a file, .bash_profile was some how created.
Once I renamed that file and opened new terminal all is working now.

Here’s the workaround that worked for me:

cordova platform --usegit add android
