Android Question How do I get a LogCat file?

[rleiman]

Hi Everyone,

I'm starting to use AdBuddiz and the B4A library which they had was not working so I was sending emails to their account manager.

They told me to send them a LogCat file. I have no idea what this is and how to get a copy of it.

Please tell me what to do to get it.

Thanks.

Did you look at this:

Hi Giga,

According to that post it can't be done.

Maybe there is a stand alone utility that will do it so I can send that file to Clara at AdBuddiz.

Have a look at android-sdk\tools\monitor.bat

Hi Don,

I have the monitor running but I don't see my phone listed in the devices. How do I get the monitor to see the phone as a device?

Thanks.

You probably need to use usb connection and usb debugging enabled in your device. I don´t know...

You need to ask google how to get the monitor work.

Hi Don,

From your screen shot I see it connected to your device. I looked on the menu system of the monitor and did not find anything to connect the device like B4A does. If B4A can connect, I was hoping the monitor can also do the same. I guess wishful thinking because I got spoiled using B4A which is the best.

How is your phone connected? As @DonManfred said is the phone in USB DEBUG mode?

Hi Giga,

It's using WIFI and the b4a bridge app.

Hi Giga,

Connect it through a USB cable and verify USB Debugging is enabled. I don't believe the monitor tool will work through B4A bridge
