Answer 1

Go to ionic.io to create a new app. Then create ionic.config.json file in your app's root folder with content like

{
  "name": "your_app_name",
  "app_id": "your_app_id"
}

Then run the command "ionic build android", it should work.

Answer 2

After the recent update to the ionic-cli look for a file,
so just rename the file named ionic.project to ionic.config.json

I had the same problem once, all what I've come up with, is to create a new project, then replace the www folder with my own one, add all plugins. seems to fix the problem.
