Ionic 3 - Android build - Android SDK

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hi everybody! When I try to build a new app (ionic 3) for android, the terminal shows this error:

Error: Failed to find ‘ANDROID_HOME’ environment variable. Try setting setting it manually.
Detected ‘adb’ command at /usr/local/Cellar/android-sdk/24.4.1_1/bin but no ‘platform-tools’ directory found near.
Try reinstall Android SDK or update your PATH to include valid path to SDK/platform-tools directory.

I changed many times the ANDROID_HOME path (with all the posibilities) and nothings happens, anyone have the same problem?
Thanks!!

Regards
Armando
