I am following this Facebook tutorial, and when running react-native run-android from AwesomeProject dir, I am getting a red screen on the android emulator, with the following text:
Unable to download JS bundle. Did you forget to start the development server or connect your device?

I don't know if it's related, but I'm also getting a bunch of SyntaxErrors on the server regarding const not being valid in strict mode (I did not change anything in the original code) and getting the following error on START:
< START> request:/index.android.bundle?platform=android
TypeError: Cannot read property 'root' of null

Update
Upgrading to Node v4.1.1 got rid of the const syntax error, but I still get the same result with the following error on React Packager:
