`Ionic run android --livereload` Not working. Ionic 2

When trying to use Ionic run android --livereload I keep getting this error message on the device :point_down:

Application Error
There was a network error. (http:// 192.168.1.xxx:xxxx/)

Has anyone else had any trouble with this? It makes it really hard to work with Cordova plugins when you cant see the server logs while running the app… :pensive:

When running this command with an Ionc v1 app it works flawlessly.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I discovered the solution.

Just add this plugin :point_down:
$ ionic plugin add https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-whitelist.git

Thats it. No configuration or anything else was needed.

@icarus_31 It seems that it’s a bug in the latest version of Ionic CLI (v2.0.0-beta.24):
