PhoneGap Ajax call to HTTPS server with self-signed certificate fails

I am not sure if this is a bug with Cordova with Android Lollipop but previously an AJAX call to a HTTPS server with self-signed certificate on older versions of Android worked fine.

I even tried this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8977226/phonegap-ajax-call-to-https-server-with-self-signed-certificate-fails by adding the (android:debuggable="true") and did not work either.

This is not a big issue, it is just for development as I will never use this in production.

Thanks in advance.
