APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Software Environment:
  Mac OS
  MFP 7.0 and 7.1
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  -Create studio hybrid project (ios)
  -add in 'navigator.vibrate(3000);' call
  
  Expected Result:
  -Should cause phone to vibrate
  
  Actual Result:
  -Nothing happens, no crash or error
  

Local fix

• The issue here is that there was a change to the
  cordova-plugin-vibrate that was not taken into account for
  cordova_plugins.js. This change needs to happen in the
  cordova_plugins.js:
  
  FROM:
  {
          "file":
  "plugins/org.apache.cordova.vibration/www/vibration.js",
          "id": "org.apache.cordova.vibration.notification",
          "merges": [
              "navigator.notification"
          ]
      }
  
  
  TO:
  {
          "file":
  "plugins/org.apache.cordova.vibration/www/vibration.js",
          "id": "org.apache.cordova.vibration.notification",
          "merges": [
              "navigator.notification",
              "navigator"
          ]
      }
