Hi,
I've come across and issue where theframeStack is empty on some Android devices. I'm not sure if this an issue fornativescript-vue-navigator ornativescript-vue or neither and something else is in my code is causing this issue. But I'll explain anyway and hopefully it'll help others at least.

Starting here

Whenthis.$navigate is called we go into its definition athttps://github.com/nativescript-vue/nativescript-vue/blob/c0e6f959096e81dd544cee01f8be4cebfd89eb87/platform/nativescript/plugins/navigator-plugin.js#L69.

On line 77 (https://github.com/nativescript-vue/nativescript-vue/blob/c0e6f959096e81dd544cee01f8be4cebfd89eb87/platform/nativescript/plugins/navigator-plugin.js#L77), we callgetFrameInstance. Then go to its definition athttps://github.com/nativescript-vue/nativescript-vue/blob/c0e6f959096e81dd544cee01f8be4cebfd89eb87/platform/nativescript/plugins/navigator-plugin.js#L37.

On line 32 (https://github.com/nativescript-vue/nativescript-vue/blob/c0e6f959096e81dd544cee01f8be4cebfd89eb87/platform/nativescript/plugins/navigator-plugin.js#L32), when the result ofrequire('@nativescript/core').Frame.getFrameById(frame) isundefined, causingundefined to be assigned to theframe variable.

The later call involvingframe.id (https://github.com/nativescript-vue/nativescript-vue/blob/c0e6f959096e81dd544cee01f8be4cebfd89eb87/platform/nativescript/plugins/navigator-plugin.js#L37) throws an errorCannot read property 'id' of undefined and causes the navigation to never work.

Work around:

/// navigation.mixin.jsimport{isAndroid}from'@nativescript/core';importVue,{navigateTo,NavigationEntryVue}from'nativescript-vue';importComponentfrom'vue-class-component';@ComponentexportdefaultclassNavigationMixinextendsVue{public$navigator_navigate_override(route:string,options:NavigationEntryVue):navigateTo{if(isAndroid){// HACK: Android is broken on some devicesoptions={        ...options,frame:{nativeView:{id:options.frame||'navigator'}}};}returnthis.$navigator.navigate(route,{      ...options});}}

Which will get aroundframe.id being undefined when thenavigator frame should always be defined when using thenativescript-vue-navigator plugin.

Possibly associated to:

• $navigateTo() frame ID issue #55
• When using $navigateTo I get "getFrameById() is deprecated. Use Frame.getFrameById() instead.'" nativescript-vue#591
