Answer 1

There is not specific error logs what you mentioned that shows any error with your code.

There may be some ionic/cordova configuration miss-match while add platform.

please remove and add platform with one of following code and try for work again.

1) cordova platform rm android and cordova platform add android

or

2) ionic platform rm android and ionic platform add android
