I’ve created fork to solve this problem https://github.com/darron1217/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation/tree/bugfix
You can install it by
npm install https://github.com/darron1217/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation.git#bugfix@LgArcida this is how you fix it
I’m not a maintainer of the project (or connected to it). In the workaround that worked for me I physically copied the file to plugin’s location for string.xml
Can’t really help you more than that, I do not know plugin’s internals.
In our case it was a bit of a pain to make it work with capacitor/ionic combo.
Awesome work @darron1217 that saved the day!
I had the same issue while trying to sign the app. It was working without signing. Can we get this merged @mauron85? 🙏
In appflow now I have progress, and getting the same thing mentioned here https://github.com/mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation/issues/562#issuecomment-588174021
