Cannot find name 'ClassName'

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

I have to use certain plugins in my Ionic 3 Application but it gives Cannot find name error. I imported

import { AndroidPermissions } from '@ionic-native/android-permissions';

and on on declaring in constructor (public androidPermissions: AndroidPermissions) , it gives an error ([ts] Cannot find name 'AndroidPermissions'.) .

On declaring the same plugin in app.module.ts and declaring in Provider, it gave the error

[ts]
Type 'AndroidPermissionsOriginal' is not assignable to type 'Provider'.
Type 'AndroidPermissionsOriginal' is missing the following properties from type 'FactoryProvider': provide, useFactory [2322]

After reading forums, I imported the plugin with ngx.

import { AndroidPermissions } from '@ionic-native/android-permissions/ngx'

Error got resolved, but on invoking it throws the error

Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: Object(...) is not a function

Similar error happened when using Network plugin and SMS plugin.
