Analyzing Logs and Debugging Errors in Android Devices

Once the application is deployed on the device, either through the App store or as an adhoc or enterprise build, to debug problems you need to analyze the crash logs and console output from the device.

To get crash logs and console output with Eclipse, you need to:

  1. Plug in the device and open the Eclipse.
  2. Go to menu bar and select Windows > Show View > Other... > LogCat
  3. LogCat logs appear and are highlighted in red color.
