EXCEPTION: No provider for ElementRef! (Content -> ElementRef)

Ionic Framework ionic-v3

How can I add the Content provider to my App?

If I register the provider in a specific component it works fine, but when I register it in the ionicBootstrap I get the following error:

EXCEPTION: No provider for ElementRef! (Content → ElementRef)

here is my App.ts:

import {Component} from "@angular/core";
import {ionicBootstrap, Platform, Content} from "ionic-angular";
import {StatusBar} from "ionic-native";

import {BackendService} from "./backend/backend.service";

import {LoginComponent} from "./pages/login/login.component";

@Component({
    template: "<ion-nav [root]='rootPage'></ion-nav>"
})
export class App {
    // We tell our app which is the first page (main, root, or wahtever you like to call it...)
    private rootPage: any = LoginComponent;

    constructor(private platform: Platform) {
        this.initializeApp();
    }

    private initializeApp() {
        this.platform.ready().then(() => {
            // Okay, so the platform is ready and our plugins are available.
            // Here you can do any higher level native things you might need.
            StatusBar.styleDefault();
        });
    }
}

ionicBootstrap(App, [BackendService, Content], {});

Content is a component, not an injectable. It’s not something you can use a provider.

Why does it work when I inject it in the constructor of other components? It only does not work when I use in the ionicBootstrap.

Nevertheless, if this is not the way to use it, do you have any sample of how to use Content?

Yes, we have examples.

That is brilliant. Thank you very much.
