npm ERR! code ELOOP
npm ERR! errno -40

It is only in step 3, really?
Can you create a new project and switch steps 2 and 3 so you first install the ionic-native plugin and then the Cordova plugin?

In that case works, but i get other errors related. See:

Are you on a unstable connection? Rerun the same (last) command with --debug added at the end.

Do you have something new about it? Any solution or tip?

Try with an older npm version (pre 5) please.

Ok, let’s go! I changed the node and npm versions using n and downgraded to:

System:

    Node       : v7.8.0
