Can you provide the actual error?
That only means Java failed to compile, but should also say why and that’s the important part.

[WilcoVertegaal]

I think I ran into this issue, so I'll provide the error messages:

`line 40: error: package android.support.v4.content does not exist
import android.support.v4.content.FileProvider;

line 303: error: cannot find symbol
this.imageUri = new CordovaUri(FileProvider.getUriForFile(cordova.getActivity(),`

and that error line on line 801.

I think it is related to Android 4 being deprecated in Cordova Android 10 - if I understood all of this correctly?

[jcesarmobile]

That error is because you are using AndroidX dependencies and the plugin doesn't support AndroidX yet (because cordova-android wasn't using it by default neither)
Now that cordova-android 10 is out with AndroidX enabled, it will be fixed in #751

Also, as workaround, you can use tools such as jetifier, or cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter or similar tooling that patches the plugins to use AndroidX

Closing since the issue creator didn't provide any information
