Description

**Description:**

I'm using Ionic cordova [BLE plugin](https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/ble). When I run

> ionic cordova run android

Everything is fine. However when I run

> ionic serve --devapp

The first time it works. When I restart DevApp application. It tells me that the plugin is not installed although it's well installed and it works fine.

**Steps to Reproduce:**

**Output:**

> [INFO] DevApp connection established from SM-G965F
>
> [ng] [console.log]: "Angular is running in the development mode. Call enableProdMode() to enable the production mode."
> [ng] [console.warn]: "Native: tried calling BLE.startScan, but the BLE plugin is not installed."
> [ng] [console.warn]: "Install the BLE plugin: 'ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-ble-central'"
> [ng] [console.warn]: "Native: tried calling BLE.stopScan, but the BLE plugin is not installed."
> [ng] [console.warn]: "Install the BLE plugin: 'ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-ble-central'"
> [ng] [console.error]: "ERROR" "plugin_not_installed"
> [ng] [console.info]: "[WDS] Live Reloading enabled."
> [ng] [console.log]: "calling _sync"
> [ng] [console.log]: "calling _reload"
> [ng] [console.log]: "done _reloading"
> [ng] [console.log]: "Ionic Native: deviceready event fired after 2673 ms"
