Description

In version 3.0.0 the command navigator.splashscreen.hide(); works fine.

With the new version 3.1.0 it simply doesn't close the splashscreen. The splashscreen keeps on being displayed for the time set in the config.xml.

config.xml:
<preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen"/>
<preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false"/>
<preference name="ShowSplashScreenSpinner" value="false"/>
<preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="20000"/>
<preference name="SplashMaintainAspectRatio" value="true"/>
<preference name="SplashShowOnlyFirstTime" value="false"/>
<preference name="FadeSplashScreen" value="false"/>

JS:
$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
// Hide splash screen
if (navigator.splashscreen)

{ navigator.splashscreen.hide(); }

});
