Phonegap application doesn't work on Windows phone

I have developed an app in apache cordova aka phonegap. My application is working on android and ios platform properly but does not work on windows phone 8. I am using latest version of phonegap framework(3.5). Console Output of Visual Studio 2013:

A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorageException' occurred in mscorlib.ni.dll ****>>>(OK)
Updating IsolatedStorage for APP:DeviceID :: 65253133-611e-4bfc-89d6-cf7924246d63 ****>>>(OK)
Falling back on PROMPT mode since _cordovaNative is missing. Expected for Android 3.2 and lower only.
CordovaBrowser_LoadCompleted 
deviceready has not fired after 5 seconds.
Channel not fired: onNativeReady 
Channel not fired: onCordovaReady 
Channel not fired: onPluginsReady

Please help me, I am frustrated.

Unfortunately, JQM 1.3 does not supports windows phone 8 or 8.1. It supports windows phone 7.5-7.8 as mentioned in its documentation: http://jquerymobile.com/gbs/1.3

I will suggest to upgrade your JQM framework to the latest version (currently 1.4 is available on their website). Your output error seems likely due to this J-Query Mobile framework compatibility issues and due to this, it does not fire the JQM events which you may have use in you code. Apache Cordova is successfully loading in you device by analyzing your console output. Deviceready, onNativeReady, onCordovaReady, onPluginsReady events fail due to the JQM and I bet that compiling your project in latest JQM framework version will solve this problem.

Secondly, Database compatibility issue is also there. W3C Web SQL Database does not support the Windows Phone platform clearly stated in phonegap documentation. http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.2.0/phonegap_storage_storage.md.html

You may also use IndexedDB for windows phone platform or any other which supports windows phone. Check availablity from: https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/edge/cordova_storage_storage.md.html#Storage

I hope so this will solve your issue.
