Use original javascript phone cards

Question

we ship Cordova WebApp for tablets with a mini-source using uglify2-compressor via grunt-contrib-requirejs. We generate source debugging cards that work seamlessly with the Chrome Chrome browser through remote debugging on the KitKat tablet.

Now we like to send error reports from our clients to our server. Android WebView doesn't seem to care about our source maps. Therefore, we get an error message like "line 1, char 1231231" - not very useful ...

Question: is it possible to use the source maps with Android (and iOS) Webview, perhaps using the Cordova plugin, or do we need to wait for the update (Chrome and Firefox Desktop can analyze the maps ..) and sends un-minizes code so that we can get the line number an error occurred?

From Chromium Discussion Topic

DevTools loads source maps using an external browser interface, not the one that launches the verified page. So the file: // android ... will never be available. You need to specify the files in your development window.
