Description

Migrated from Issue #99

from lkounadis:

I have a problem when trying to use this plugin with inappbrowser plugin.
The web app is originally set to portrait, and at some point I am trying to open an inAppBrowser and unlock the screen orientation.

I have tried to open and set using the code bellow, but both cases put the inAppBrowser to the background:

screen.unlockOrientation();
cordova.InAppBrowser.open(url, target, options);
OR
cordova.InAppBrowser.open(url, target, options);
screen.unlockOrientation();

The only way I have got it to work correctly is by setting the inappbrowser to open using a timeout:

screen.unlockOrientation();
setTimeout(function(){
cordova.InAppBrowser.open(url, target, options);
},100)
