I have this problem on ionic 3:

When i run this: 

ionic cordova run android --device

i see this:

> cordova run android
Error: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting setting it manually.
Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'. Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.

[ERROR] Cordova encountered an error.
        You may get more insight by running the Cordova command above directly.

[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova run android (exit code 1).

I do not know what the solution is. I would like to know the link to download sdk for android and the way I have to set the path variable, I tried but I can not

You may want to confirm that your development environment has been set correctly.

Quoting from spring.io:

Set up the Android development environment

Before you can build Android applications, you must install the Android SDK. Installing the Android SDK also installs the AVD Manager, a graphical user interface for creating and managing Android Virtual Devices (AVDs).

  1. From the Android web site, download the correct version of the Android SDK for your operating system.

  2. Unzip the archive to a location of your choosing. For example, on Linux or Mac, you can place it in the root of your user directory. See the Android Developers web site for additional installation details.

  3. Configure the ANDROID_HOME environment variable based on the location of the Android SDK. Additionally, consider adding ANDROID_HOME/tools, and ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools to your PATH.

Mac OS X

export ANDROID_HOME=/<installation location>/android-sdk-macosx
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

Linux

export ANDROID_HOME=/<installation location>/android-sdk-linux
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

Windows

set ANDROID_HOME=C:\<installation location>\android-sdk-windows
set PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools

The Android SDK download does not include specific Android platforms. To run the code in this guide, you need to download and install the latest SDK platform. You do this by using the Android SDK and AVD Manager that you installed in the previous section.

  1. Open the Android SDK Manager window:

    android

    Note: If this command does not open the Android SDK Manager, then your path is not configured correctly.

  2. Select the Tools checkbox.

  3. Select the checkbox for the latest Android SDK.

  4. From the Extras folder, select the checkbox for the Android Support Library.

  5. Click the Install packages... button to complete the download and installation.

    Note: You may want to install all the available updates, but be aware it will take longer, as each API level is a large download.
