Description

It is our recommendation that you bind to all of the Cordova events (pause, resume, etc.) in your deviceready callback so as to ensure that cordova.js and all your plugins are done being loaded. This is mentioned in the events guide in the documentation

However, we include a bindEvents method in the template which implies that all event binding should happen there. We should probably just remove bindEvents altogether and add the event listener for deviceready in the initialize method since the other events we mention seem to be out of date. We should also add a comment explaining where Cordova related events should be bound to.
