I'm developing an app using phonegap. I want to get contacts from yahoo after logging in, and I got stuck at this. I want to know that, whether it can be done with JavaScript. But don't know where to start.
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
As of this date (2015-08-11), there are NO plugins to support the Yahoo API for contacts. This is a link to search for such plugins http://plugins.cordova.io/npm/index.html?q=yahoo

Hey does anyone knows about an api for retrieving information about mobile phones like (ram, rom, processor, camera ,etc).
i have tried web scraping but it is not helpful for different products.
Assuming you are using an android phone you can take help from the below URL.

In my Phonegap Application, I have to fetch Google Advertising ID. For this I have been trying with some plugins which are not working properly. Can any one suggest some plugin for getting Google Advertising ID using phonegap.
Thanks in advance.
An easy solution would be to use this app (or another similar app - several apps exist) on the device you want the ID from:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.t3d.detectdevice
I am currently integrating our cordova app with social networking apps such as twitter, linkedin and yammer. The first two apps provide uri scheme in directly opening the user's profile. E.g. twitter://user?screen_name=SREEN_NAME and linkedin://profile/PROFILE_ID respectively.
Now, I am trying to figure out for yammer. There doesn't seem to have much information in the internet. I managed to download the IPA file and extract the info.plist file. There, it shows yammer:// and it does open the ios app. I played around with the combination for opening a profile but did not have much luck. I am wondering if anyone had figured it out already. Would love if there's a yammer developer around here.
Unfortunately at the moment we don't support a way to do this
I have done this in a xamarin.forms app in both iOS and Android environment using Jordan Hewitt's example here: https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/48089/how-to-open-other-apps-from-xamarin-forms
The URI schema would be defined in Xamarin.forms in MainPage.xaml.cs as:
Xamarin.Forms.Device.OpenUri(new Uri("yammer://threads"));
For native iOS and Android the schema would be same: "yammer://threads"
Hope this helps.
Can i create smth like this with JavaScript? Thank you very much for help
Create an Android application that allows to: 1. login to user's Facebook account and retrieve friends list. The list should be then displayed as given friend's profile image + username.
Cordova would assist you in developing mobile applications for various platforms using javascript, html css. Here is their site url http://cordova.apache.org/
For facebook related stuff, You can use facebook's graph api.
I just discovered PhoneGap and was wondering if there's a way to access the SMS inbox from Javascript with it. Or if there's another easy way to do it in an app created from a HTML/CSS/JS solution.
There's no info about SMS access in the phonegap docs, but maybe the inbox is avaliable as a url or a folder?
I would like to stick with phonegap so that the app would work on many devices, but an android only solution is satisfactory too.
This functionality is not currently in PhoneGap though it might come in a future release. This is something that whole community would probably appreciate!
I think you will want to create a plugin to achieve this functionality for the moment. Some examples of plugins are here: https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins.
Here is an example of using an Android ContentProvider to interact with the SMS inbox How to delete an SMS from the inbox in Android programmatically?
There is a plugin for doing it with phonegap,
