 Searched in the following locations:

Upgrade you system, see if it helps. The current Cordova Tools version is 5.3.3. Here is a blog post that should help with the upgrade. – Inpour 16/10, 2015 at 2:56

unless your respond in a message box, I do not know if you have responded. Forums that support Cordova/Phonegap ------ Ionic forum – Inpour 18/10, 2015 at 3:16

Were you able to install the Android Support Library in your SDK Manager? – Samuels 18/10, 2015 at 12:53

I've installed SDK Manager with Android Studio. – Tripetalous 19/10, 2015 at 9:13

The location https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/android/support/ does not exist anymore (404). So the maven configuration seems to be the issue.

I found a GitHub issue about the same problem you encountered and it was solved by running updating the SDK (which you did already) and readding the Android platform to the Ionic project:

# Update Android SDK
android list sdk
android update sdk --no-ui --filter extra

# Refresh Ionic Android configuration
ionic platform remove android
ionic platform add android

Before removing the android platform: Be sure to backup any ressources like icons, translations...! – Honshu 24/10, 2015 at 10:24

If above answer not helped please see this #40383823 – Whisker 1/4, 2017 at 15:57

Please see my answer in this related question.

In short: the source of the error maybe an plugin that depends on the com.android.support:support-v4 support library.

If you use cordova >= 5.0.0 update to the new official plugins.
