Android Quirks
In your config.xml, you need to add the following preferences:
<preference name="SplashScreen" value="foo" />
<preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="10000" />
Where foo is the name of the splashscreen file, preferably a 9 patch file. Make sure to add your splashcreen files to your res/xml directory under the appropriate folders. The second parameter represents how long the splashscreen will appear in milliseconds. It defaults to 3000 ms. See Icons and Splash Screens for more information.
splashscreen.hide
Dismiss the splash screen.
navigator.splashscreen.hide();
BlackBerry 10, WP8, iOS Quirk
The config.xml file's AutoHideSplashScreen setting must be
false. To delay hiding the splash screen for two seconds, add a
timer such as the following in the deviceready event handler:
setTimeout(function() {
navigator.splashscreen.hide();
}, 2000);
splashscreen.show
Displays the splash screen.
navigator.splashscreen.show();
Your application cannot call navigator.splashscreen.show() until the app has
started and the deviceready event has fired. But since typically the splash
screen is meant to be visible before your app has started, that would seem to
defeat the purpose of the splash screen. Providing some configuration in
config.xml will automatically show the splash screen immediately after your
app launch and before it has fully started and received the deviceready
event. See Icons and Splash Screens
for more information on doing this configuration. For this reason, it is
unlikely you need to call navigator.splashscreen.show() to make the splash
screen visible for app startup.
