Can't start Android app after updating to beta.4

Assuming that you created a new JS project from scratch with the latest beta and then updated the files as in the workaround from the link that you provided, then I would suggest you to make sure that you imported es6-shim in app.js (see step 4 above), i.e. make sure to add the following line at the top of app.js:

import 'es6-shim';
