Description

When I run something like this:

window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL('file:///storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/1394726081689.jpg', function(entry) {
    console.log(entry.fullPath);
    console.log(entry.toURL());
    entry.file(fileSuccess, fail);
});

The logcat shows this result:

I/chromium( 3022): [INFO:CONSOLE(28)] "file:///storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/1394726081689.jpg", source: file:///android_asset/www/js/pdf.js (28)

As you can see the second console.log has the cdvfile protocol with the file protocol appended to the end. I'm sure this is causing the following error. Seems that the same code runs perfectly on iOS returning the correct URLs:

[Log] /cdv_photo_001.jpg
[Log] cdvfile://localhost/temporary/cdv_photo_001.jpg
