I am not using lazy loading

If you are not using lazy loading , it is not an IonicPage . Adding IonicPage decorator allows you to use string names to handle pages.

This will automatically create a link to the MyPage component using the same name as the class, name: 'MyPage'. The page can now be navigated to by using this name.

Since you are not lazy loading, you cannot use a string to navigate or create modals and popups. You have to use the actual page/component.

Import the page.

import <path_to_page>;

  this.openModal(SosPopPage);//create the modal.
