Solution 1:

I've seen devs use the lib folder, in the built application, as a destination for .jar files. This post looks helpful: How to include jar files in phonegap android application?

Quoting the answer:

<source-file src="libs/mylib.jar" target-dir="libs" />

"libs" is the default folder for storing .jar files so your lib will be linked.

Take a look at an existing plugin using an external lib.
