Description

At startup of an app on Android 4.1:
07-19 10:14:43.341: E/Web Console(935): XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://127.0.0.1:37440/f97c255c-2ede-4165-9fb8-f2d613736c14. Origin null is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. at null:1

Every request with XMLHttpRequest gets the same error. It doesent matter what origin is set in cordova.xml.
On older android versions all works fine.
Tested with Cordova 1.8.1 and 2.0.0rc1
Tested with emulator and Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean.
