How to build an Report column in Force close. Anyone having samples for this method? How can i done like this? Anyone knows this mean reply me.
You get a Report button automatically when your published application crashes. It's a default feature of all applications published on the Android Market.
For developing, I would suggest BugSense. Just grab their library, insert one line of code into your application's entry point and you get error reports with stack traces and cool graphs on the website.
Use ACRA then. Its easy to use and convenient
ACRA is a library enabling Android Application to automatically post their crash reports to a GoogleDoc form. It is targetted to android applications developers to help them get data from their applications when they crash or behave erroneously.

This is an information question rather than a technical question. I have an app in Google Market. I need to know stracktrace of errors happens in other phones.
I have investigated but I have not seen anything about it. Does anyone know if Google offers some service to look at the errors that your application is giving in the market and thus to be able to reproduce it?
Thanks in advance!
Well google offers one really powerful tool "Firebase" it provides great analytics and crash reporting. In addition to analytics and crashes it provides others utilities like Cloud-Testing, Push Notifications and many others.
Other popular solution is Crashlytics offered by twitter.
Open your app at the developer console and select "disruptions and ANR". Here you can select on of disruptions you have, then you can see error stack trace!
Or you can use appmetrica from yandex. Link to yandex.metrica It's very simple to integrate yandex.metrica to your app and get all data about crashes and statistic (country, city, android version and so on).
Link to console
I hope title itself says what my question is.
My app is crashing at very rare scenarios like nearly 1 out of 100 times.
I am not using any crash log tools and not logging exception causes.
I want to know does Android system maintains any crash log report when the app is crashed either in System level or in App level.
Thanks
Android system maintains a crash report and sends to the developer but the user has to allow this.
And then you can check it here in Android Developer Console:
As an alternative you can use third-party loggers like Liquid, Crashlytics (mention in another answer), Splunk MINT Express (ex-Bugsense) or any other from this links
I don't think so, if you can't debug it in real time with the IDE (DDMS and LogCat), you must use Crashlytics or any other similar tool.
I use it in all my apps, it is very useful.
My application is going to be published in the market. I want to know if is there any standard lib or procedure we can follow for collecting logs of published apps.It should not only collect the crash logs but also have to log apps critical events and send to a predefined backend server. And my source code is obsucated using proguard.
Please suggest an efficient way if anyone has done it.
If you're after free and open source check out the following lib: ACRA.
What is ACRA?
ACRA is a library enabling Android Application to automatically post their crash reports to a GoogleDoc form(now deprecated, but they instead use Acralyzer, which is much better). It is targetted to android applications developers to help them get data from their applications when they crash or behave erroneously.
Here you can find their GitHub page which lists all the features of ACRA if you want to decide if this is for you.

There is an open Source Library called Apache log4j. So by using this Api you can store the all kind of Log into a Text or .Xml file and will be stored in your given path.
You can find the document Log4j
You can download jar from Here
And if you released your application then you can get the Crash log on Google Play Developer Console.
Or else you can use Android Crash report using ACRA to get the Crash log in terms of Excel
Hope this will help you.
You can use Hockey App for retrieving crash reports from users. You can use this link also
I am developing android application for client. Now client testing my application in various device. While testing, my application is crash at times. Now I need to know when and where the application crash.
How can I get the crash report from the device? Since my client does not have sdk and eclipse to view logcat error report.
There are mechanisms like ACRA that will let you obtain the crash reports from Android apps.
Instabug is a bug & crash reporting service and it’s just what you’re looking for.
It automatically sends a report containing all crash and device details once a crash occurs, plus it only takes a line of code to integrate in your app.
For full disclosure, I work at Instabug. Let me know if I can help.
By adding the Crash Report SDK in the project, You can view the released application crash log, which will help to locate problems.
Here is a demo page
Many of my beta testers are non-developers and don't know how to use Eclipse. Is there an EASY way for non-techies to send me stack traces after a crash?
Is Eclipse the only way to see a stack trace for an Android app?
Thanks,
Barry
Integrate ACRA into your app. All crashes (unhandled exceptions) will be posted to a Google Spreadsheet (or a web app you provide) and you can get realtime notifications by email. If you add the required permission, it can also collect logcat automatically.
Bugsense does something similar with a much nicer interface, but report
details are somewhat limited.
