+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Calling of 
<code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionsResult</code></strong></p>
+
+    <p>Updated <code>CordovaInterfaceImpl.onRequestPermissionsResult</code> to 
call the new <code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionsResult</code> method in 
addition to the exisiting 
<code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionResult</code>.</p>
+  </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Fixes</h3>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Keyboard Layout and Page Scrolling when Input Fields Receive 
Focus</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes a UI layout and scrolling bug, that was introduced in 
<code>cordova-android@15.0.0</code>, where focusing on an input field while the 
soft keyboard was open could cause the WebView to shift upwards, leaving an 
unrendered space at the bottom of the Activity, and prevent the page from 
scrolling. This update restores the expected layout and scrolling behavior when 
interacting with input fields.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Handle Permissions for <code>getUserMedia</code></strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes <code>getUserMedia()</code> permission handling to correctly 
check for and request the required native camera and microphone permissions 
before proceeding. This aligns the WebView permission flow with the native 
platform, improving compatibility and ensuring media requests behave as 
expected.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Back Button Handling After App Launch</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where the back button would not respond immediately 
after the app launched. Back button events are now handled consistently from 
startup, including on devices that support the Android back gesture, ensuring 
expected navigation behavior throughout the app.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Properly Handle CSS Color with Alpha</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where <code>window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()</code> 
incorrectly interpreted 8-digit hexadecimal CSS color values, which could 
result in the wrong status bar color being applied.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Status Bar Appearance Styling for Edge-to-Edge</strong></p>
+
+    <p>When Edge-to-Edge was enabled, apps could not adjust the status bar 
text and icon appearance, which could make them difficult to see against 
certain backgrounds.</p>
+
+    <p>This release exposes the exisiting 
<code>window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()</code> JS API for Edge-to-Edge 
layouts. Although the API is used to set the status bar background color, it 
also determines the appropriate status bar text and icon appearance, allowing 
apps to maintain proper contrast. In Edge-to-Edge layouts, the background color 
itself is not applied as there is no status bar, but the calculated appearance 
is still applied.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Fix Status Bar Background Color Handling for Opaque 
White</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where the valid color <code>#FFFFFFFF</code> was 
incorrectly treated as an invalid status bar color, preventing fully opaque 
white from being applied. This restores support for all valid status bar 
background colors.</p>
+  </li>
+</ul>

+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Calling of 
<code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionsResult</code></strong></p>
+
+    <p>Updated <code>CordovaInterfaceImpl.onRequestPermissionsResult</code> to 
call the new <code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionsResult</code> method in 
addition to the exisiting 
<code>CordovaPlugin.onRequestPermissionResult</code>.</p>
+  </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Fixes</h3>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Keyboard Layout and Page Scrolling when Input Fields Receive 
Focus</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes a UI layout and scrolling bug, that was introduced in 
<code>cordova-android@15.0.0</code>, where focusing on an input field while the 
soft keyboard was open could cause the WebView to shift upwards, leaving an 
unrendered space at the bottom of the Activity, and prevent the page from 
scrolling. This update restores the expected layout and scrolling behavior when 
interacting with input fields.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Handle Permissions for <code>getUserMedia</code></strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes <code>getUserMedia()</code> permission handling to correctly 
check for and request the required native camera and microphone permissions 
before proceeding. This aligns the WebView permission flow with the native 
platform, improving compatibility and ensuring media requests behave as 
expected.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Back Button Handling After App Launch</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where the back button would not respond immediately 
after the app launched. Back button events are now handled consistently from 
startup, including on devices that support the Android back gesture, ensuring 
expected navigation behavior throughout the app.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Properly Handle CSS Color with Alpha</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where <code>window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()</code> 
incorrectly interpreted 8-digit hexadecimal CSS color values, which could 
result in the wrong status bar color being applied.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Status Bar Appearance Styling for Edge-to-Edge</strong></p>
+
+    <p>When Edge-to-Edge was enabled, apps could not adjust the status bar 
text and icon appearance, which could make them difficult to see against 
certain backgrounds.</p>
+
+    <p>This release exposes the exisiting 
<code>window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()</code> JS API for Edge-to-Edge 
layouts. Although the API is used to set the status bar background color, it 
also determines the appropriate status bar text and icon appearance, allowing 
apps to maintain proper contrast. In Edge-to-Edge layouts, the background color 
itself is not applied as there is no status bar, but the calculated appearance 
is still applied.</p>
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    <p><strong>Fix Status Bar Background Color Handling for Opaque 
White</strong></p>
+
+    <p>Fixes an issue where the valid color <code>#FFFFFFFF</code> was 
incorrectly treated as an invalid status bar color, preventing fully opaque 
white from being applied. This restores support for all valid status bar 
background colors.</p>
+  </li>
+</ul>

+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keyboard Layout and Page Scrolling when Input 
Fields Receive Focus&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;Fixes a UI layout and scrolling bug, that was introduced in 
&lt;code&gt;cordova-android@15.0.0&lt;/code&gt;, where focusing on an input 
field while the soft keyboard was open could cause the WebView to shift 
upwards, leaving an unrendered space at the bottom of the Activity, and prevent 
the page from scrolling. This update restores the expected layout and scrolling 
behavior when interacting with input fields.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Handle Permissions for 
&lt;code&gt;getUserMedia&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;Fixes &lt;code&gt;getUserMedia()&lt;/code&gt; permission handling 
to correctly check for and request the required native camera and microphone 
permissions before proceeding. This aligns the WebView permission flow with the 
native platform, improving compatibility and ensuring media requests behave as 
expected.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Back Button Handling After App 
Launch&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;Fixes an issue where the back button would not respond 
immediately after the app launched. Back button events are now handled 
consistently from startup, including on devices that support the Android back 
gesture, ensuring expected navigation behavior throughout the app.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Properly Handle CSS Color with 
Alpha&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;Fixes an issue where 
&lt;code&gt;window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()&lt;/code&gt; incorrectly 
interpreted 8-digit hexadecimal CSS color values, which could result in the 
wrong status bar color being applied.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Status Bar Appearance Styling for 
Edge-to-Edge&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;When Edge-to-Edge was enabled, apps could not adjust the status 
bar text and icon appearance, which could make them difficult to see against 
certain backgrounds.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;This release exposes the exisiting 
&lt;code&gt;window.statusbar.setBackgroundColor()&lt;/code&gt; JS API for 
Edge-to-Edge layouts. Although the API is used to set the status bar background 
color, it also determines the appropriate status bar text and icon appearance, 
allowing apps to maintain proper contrast. In Edge-to-Edge layouts, the 
background color itself is not applied as there is no status bar, but the 
calculated appearance is still applied.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+  &lt;li&gt;
+    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fix Status Bar Background Color Handling for Opaque 
White&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+    &lt;p&gt;Fixes an issue where the valid color 
&lt;code&gt;#FFFFFFFF&lt;/code&gt; was incorrectly treated as an invalid status 
bar color, preventing fully opaque white from being applied. This restores 
support for all valid status bar background colors.&lt;/p&gt;
+  &lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
