How to capture logs
Taking logs for bug reports
These instructions will generate a logcat
file which you can then attach to a bug report.
That file basically consists of a log of system messages, including stack traces when the device throws an error, and debug messages from apps.
With a computer
NOTE: This method requires that you have
adb
installed.
If you don’t have it installed, please do that before continuing.
- Open Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Linux/macOS).
- Connect your device via cable or over WiFi
-
Type
adb logcat -d > logcat.txt
. This will save the log tologcat.txt
.Additionally, the radio buffer can be viewed or stored with
logcat
. If needed or requested, typeadb logcat -db radio > radio.txt
to save it toradio.txt
.
