Ionic 2 : "Error: Failed to transpile program" on "ionic build iOS"

I've been working on setting an existing Ionic 2 project on a Apple Mac machine.

I've duplicated my project as it is described here.

After solving some Xcode issues, finally the app opens on an iPhone iOS physical device but shows a blank screen after the splash screen.

I found how to get some log displayed here. The log input lead me to that SO thread: "cannot find module ionic-native".

I concluded that I had to update my project code to match the new settings to handle ionic-native plugins.

For each plugin I applied the following process: ionic plugin rm [plugin name], ionic plugin add [plugin name], npm install --save @ionic-native/[plugin name].

I reviewed my code to change where needed, in some components and providers from: { NativePlugin1, NativePlugin2 } from 'ionic-native'; To: { NativePlugin1 } from '@ionic-native/native-plugin-1'; { NativePlugin2 } from '@ionic-native/native-plugin-2';

I modified my [ionic project folder]/src/app/app.module.ts and added:

// all declaration as it was like "import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';"
//plus declarations added to match new rules and add plugin in providers section
{ NativePlugin1 } from '@ionic-native/native-plugin-1';
{ NativePlugin2 } from '@ionic-native/native-plugin-2';
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    ...
  ],
  imports: [...
  ],
  bootstrap: [IonicApp],
  entryComponents: [...
  ],
  providers: [
    NativePlugin1,
    NativePlugin2,
    ...
  ]
})
export class AppModule {}

I deleted from my package.json the line "ionic-native": "^2.7.0", as it is suggested in the solution of the SO thread I am referencing to:

You need to remove "ionic-native": "^3.5.0" from your package.json and after that run npm i.

Then I launched in that order: sudo npm cache clear, sudo npm install, and finally ionic build ios, for which I get:

"Error: Failed to transpile program"

And above this error I see plenty of errors related to the ionic-native like this one:

[14:22:15] typescript: src/services/custom-http/custom-http.ts, line:XX

       Property 'type' does not exist on type 'typeof Network'.

 LXX:     return Network.type;

I feel stuck now so if anyone has a hint it would be welcome.
