To make sure your environment is setup properly for android, go to the root of your react-native project. Open the android project(folder) in the Android Studio IDE.

All errors with your environment will show up, and that will automatically start the Gradle Daemon to sync and configure the build for you. Once it finished, close the Android Studio and come back to command-line and run: react-native run-android

This works fine.
