My cordova version is 5.0.0

I am getting a 404 error for the all ajax request made when the app is deployed on the device. On the web browser, it works fine but same app when deployed on a device does not work.

I tried adding following to solve the issue but it hasn't helped.

Config.xml

<access origin="*" />

AndriodManiest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />

I also added following in my index.html file but it didn't make any difference either.

<script>
    $.support.cors=true;
</script>

Anyone here has another trick to solve this issue?, Seems to be a quite common issue with phonegap but the fixes above worked in older vesion of the phonegap/cordova but non of them has worked in my case.

Any help would be great.
