$cordovaFile not going well with cache of Ionic resulting in showing wrong picture

@moere wrote:

Following scenario

1. going to main.admin.emergencyDetail.photos
2. loading every image and showing as list view
3. clicking one image in the list opens a modal which enables with ionic slider to slide through the image list
4. going back to main.admin.emergencyDetail
5. going back to main.admin and choosing a new emergency from a list (going to another main.admin.emergencyDetail.photos
6. opening a photo from the list to show in modal: Now the old pictures from last time being on this view showing and from now on only those loaded from point 3. are showing in every main.admin.emergencyDetail.photos state
7. closing app and reopening enables me to reset this bug. as soon i am on point 3. it takes again this image i opened now in every main.admin.emergencyDetail.photos state

The funny thing is: when I inspected the filesystem file:///data/data/<appname>/cache then the photoCache folder got deleted successfully by going back one state (as I do in 4.) deleting it successfully which means the old picture is cached somehow by ionic. I think I can put somewhere window.cache.clear() but am not quite sure where to....
