Description

On android platforms the inappbrowser plugin not manage at all http errors, instead load the error page as a normale one.

If browse on a link that thrown 4xx or 5xx code, the loaderror event is not thrown.

After some investigation I've founded cause, it's caused by an Android missin callback to manage this, but they have introduced a new callback from API23.
