---------------------------------
No, the chromium bug is a different one, the chromium bug is related to the new
android 4.4 storage framework ( same problem as this phonegap bug I've opened
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5398, and affects chrome too, and any
other app that try to get an url from the result of an
Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT ).
the problem here is the file picker isn't even called because overwriting
openFileChooser private function isn't working on android 4.4
the file picker is opened on chrome and chromium, but not on the webview
> File input element not opening file picker in Android 4.4

> Key: CB-5294
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5294
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0
> Environment: Android 4.4 (emulator and Nexus 5)
> Reporter: Paul Kane
> Assignee: Joe Bowser
>
> The file input field doesn't respond when clicked/tapped in Android 4.4.
> Works fine in previous Android versions. This is regardless of whether the
> Target Level is set to 18 or 19.
> To reproduce, I created a fresh Cordova 3.1.0 project for Android. The only
> modification I made to the default (placeholder) index.html file was adding a
> <form> element with a single <input type="file"> element inside. Clicking the
> "Choose File" button does nothing. No Logcat output or errors. Normally at
> this point a dialogue would open allowing me to select an image from the
> gallery or take a picture, which is what happens in older Android versions.
