Build error when using Cordova google-analytics-plugin

I am trying to add https://github.com/nickdrewe/google-analytics-plugin to my cordova project. But the build failed. Here are what I tried:

1. Install google playservices 21 instead of 19. Edit plugin.xml to point to 21 but still don't work.

2. Remove google playservices completely and use framework instead https://github.com/nickdrewe/google-analytics-plugin/commit/cb8e78f17472ae2c8b4db613273764a7260b4e34 but still build error

3. I also tried android update sdk --no-ui --all --filter "extra-google-m2repository" from https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adt-dev/UXW0Hl0UVXk

The error I got:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Failed to notify build listener.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

I am using Ionic 1.5.5 and Cordova Android 4.0.2

Any help?

I am open to alternative Google Analytics plugin but I found https://github.com/phonegap-build/GAPlugin causing Android app crashing upon start.
