Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hi there,

one of my apps always crash on android and i would need the logfile from my users

but as jelly bean, all that nice logfile collectors do not work anymore.

anyhow has an idea, how i could do so the logfile is written somewhere so the user can access it.

some have rooted device, that may help…

any idea is welcomed, it should just work… so i can get the logfile from later Android

or even amazing a simple tool look adb to work over USB ( i just dont like that my users have to install

the whole eclipse with sdk etc… just for that tiny ADB… if there is something similar. would be great)

thanks

I was with that problem too, to fix it you just have to go to Settings > About (it’s at the end) and then hit 7 times on the build version of the frmware. With that you unlock the developer menu because it’s hide.

Then use adb logcat Corona:v *:s to track the dump of your phone, also adding the line > file.txt you export dump to a file.

Also in some phone’s you need the driver for the adb utility, I have a Xperia Z1 and the sony developer site give what you need to start debugging.

thanks , but for that it would need the users have all the sdk installed to use adb!

and i tried to avoid that my non developer users have to install the whole sdk story,

or am i wrong? :slight_smile:
