[ x] bug report

[ ] support request => Please do not submit support requests here, use one of these channels: https://forum.ionicframework.com/ or http://ionicworldwide.herokuapp.com/

Current behavior:

Create a new project using ionic start.
Run ionic emulate|run android -l -c -s
Edit page
Save

Android emulator reloads app, however there are no console logs.

If I connect ddms and run logcat I can see the log statements appearing.

Expected behavior:

Android emulator should reload and console logging should appear in terminal.

If I update the scripts section of the package.json to look like this:

"build": "ionic-app-scripts build --dev",
"watch": "ionic-app-scripts watch",
"serve:before": "watch",
"emulate:before": "build",
"deploy:before": "build",
"build:before": "build",
"run:before": "watch"

Then console logs appear and reloading works but is flakey and the app won't reload properly and hangs with white screen of death.

Steps to reproduce:

Related code:

ionic run android -l -c -s
ionic emulate android -l -c -s

ionic run android -l -c
ionic emulate android -l -c

I'm using Chrome -> Inspect Devices. It's way better for debugging on android than the standard console. But you're right - the standard console logs are not working here, too
