Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 and Apache Cordova CTP3 Breaking/Stopping on Javascript lines with no breakpoints

Question

I am running Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 with Tools for Apache Cordova CTP3 installed. After creating a brand new Apache Cordova project, and then debugging it, it breaks/pauses

Answer 1

This is a bug that appeared since a recent update to Chrome, and it is being worked on. You can run your app on Ripple by hitting F5 through the debugger breaks (hardly satisfactory), or Ctrl+F5 to start your app without debugging in Ripple. To debug, the better option is to run on on an emulator. The VS Emulator for Android on VS 2015 Preview has been working well for me. In VS 2013, GenyMotion is probably the best option for Android.
