I have wrapped a Vue app into a Cordova container and deployed on Android via Android Studio. Each request that goes out to my server is failing with the message Error: Network Error.

This is not an issue in browser or iOs.

I have researched this issue and tried various solutions:

  1. I have installed the cordova-plugin-whitelist plugin and configured as described in the documentation

  2. I have set permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml file:

<edit-file mode="merge" parent="/manifest/uses-permission" target="AndroidManifest.xml">
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
</edit-file>
  1. I have setup a "Content-Security-Policy" tag in meta:
<meta data-n-head="1" http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="default-src * 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; script-src * 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; connect-src * 'unsafe-inline'; img-src * data: blob: 'unsafe-inline'; frame-src *; style-src * 'unsafe-inline';">

  1. I have changed my server address from localhost:3000 to my server's IP address as instructed in this answer: Network error with axios and android emulator - I also tried to run it via a local-tunnel to have a "real" API URL - same issue

  2. As instructed in the thread above, I have also added headers:

"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
  Accept: "application/json"

Still Error: Network Error. I am almost sure this has to do with permissions but there is nothing more I could configure to make it work.

I am testing this on Android 10.0+ device using Cordova 10.

Axios on 0.20.0.

I found a solution for my problem. It looks like Android is not allowing requests to http by default, as stated in this thread: Internet permission not working in oreo and pie

Changing the localtunnel to https solved the issue for me.
