I am running a server on localhost:8080 and when I run the client on the browser it is able to connect. But when I run this on the tizen wearable(2.3.1) emulator it does not connect.
I have tried using my mac's local ip and even 10.0.2.16. Nothing seems to work.

<access origin="*" subdomains="true"/>
By adding privilege, it allows the application to access the Internet. This privilege is for both native and Web application.
By <access> element in config.xml Developers can specify protocols, domains, and sub-domains.
