How to get logs
Milind Goel (telegram - @MilindGoel15)Wondering how to take logcats/crash logs and too lazy to search google, there are three methods you can use to get them:
Method 1 :- Needs a pc/laptop with adb installed.
1. Connect your phone to pc/laptop with USB debugging set to ON.
2. Open cmd from the directory where adb is installed.
3. Type "adb devices" to make sure your device is recognised
4. Type "adb logcat > name of problem.txt" and press enter.
5. Then begin reproducing the issue and the log file will be generated
6. Share the log file with us or put the text in dogbin or pastebin and share link with bug reports

Method 2:- Using logcat reader apps(might need root)
Use any logcat reader app from play store such as matlog/catlog/logcat reader and capture the error, save the text file and share with us or paste the error codes in dogbin or pastebin and share link.

Method 3:- Needs either adb permission or root
If you are getting app crashes and your system didn't generated any logs and you can't do the logcat, scoop app helps you in getting the logs only relating to that specific app which is crashing.
• First install this app
• Reproduce the crash
• Upload/Copy the stacktrace to dogbin/pastebin
• Paste link of the crash log in the chat
(The scoop app link can be found in the note button or tap on "scoop app" above)
NOTE: If you don't have adb installed in your laptop/pc, use this link to download the simple installer and follow it's instructions. Then just follow this guide to get logs and share with developer's/moderators/admins.
