Android Question Reading logs remotely [SOLVED]

[AHilberink]

Check whether your app is killed while it is in the background. You can see it in the logs.

May be a simple question: How can see it in the logs, while the device is remote? I do have Crashlytics active.

Kind regards,

You´ll find a stacktrace in Crashlytics Console when your app crashes.

You can not see the complete log in the console. At least i don´t know a way.

Thanks DonManfred.

That is my problem. The App does not crash.

The following is happening:
The user is starting an order to drive to a location. His appointment is active in my form. From this he can start an Intent to Maps. During running maps, my App seems to be reset (killed?) after a while. It is still selectable on the square button, but the form is empty and also my background service (AutomaticForeground_Always/PartialLock) for GPSLocation is stopped.

Erel mentioned my App is killed in the background during to long inactivity and mentioned to look the logs.

I now changed my service with:

StartServiceAt(Me, DateTime.Now + 30 * DateTime.TicksPerMinute, True)

to restarts the service.

Now my service looks like:

#Region  Service Attributes
    #StartAtBoot: False
    #ExcludeFromLibrary: True
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.
    Dim lock As PhoneWakeState
    Dim LatLonOud As Location
    Dim GPSTrack As FusedLocationProvider
    Dim Route As List
    Dim RouteTijd As List

End Sub

    If(LatLonOud.IsInitialized=False) Then LatLonOud.Initialize

    If(GPSTrack.IsInitialized=False) Then GPSTrack.Initialize("GPSTrack")

    lock.PartialLock
End Sub

        End If
    End If

    If(OpnemenRoute) Then
        If(Location1.DistanceTo(LatLonOud)/1000>0.5) Then '500m
            DateTime.DateFormat="dd-MM-yyyy"
            DatumTijd=DateTime.Date(DateTime.Now)&"/"&DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now)
            Route.Add(Location1)
            RouteTijd.Add(DatumTijd)
        End If
    End If

    LatLonOud=Location1
End Sub

Will this prevent also my Activity (Form) from being killed?

Kind regards,

probably no. This is expected and you need to adapt your app to work with this situation.
The app must be able to reinitialize anything needed when started again.

This is probably not the case.
