How do I get the logfile from an Android device?

Question

I would like to pull the log file from a device to my PC. How can I do that?

Answer 1

Logcollector is a good option but you need to install it first.

When I want to get the logfile to send by mail, I usually do the following:

• connect the device to the pc.
• Check that I already setup my os for that particular device.
• Open a terminal
• Run adb shell logcat > log.txt
