Andrew Grieve commented on CB-6564:
-----------------------------------

I do understand the confusion, but I don't know how to go about fixing this.

The intention is that serve be used by setting your config.xml start page to 
your server, not by loading the page up in a desktop browser. Desktop browser 
is what cordova-browser is supposed to be about. Maybe we should warn based on 
user-agent?

> `cordova serve` should report that it is unsupported

> See CB-5475
> The docs say it should work, and users will trust the CLI documentation that 
> they can "cordova serve" and test with Android. This is especially 
> problematic as it works fine with iOS. If there is not a fix planned for 
> this, then the CLI should clearly warn folks (especially since the bug causes 
> Chrome to lock up pretty fiercely) and I'd even suggest that the code behind 
> serve specifically block a call to /adroid/www. Or even better, return a 
> simple static message saying it is not supported.
> Basically my problem is that users have no way of knowing this isn't working, 
> and until a proper fix/alternative exists, we should be more proactive about 
> letting the user know
