I have a SEMC X10 Mini Pro, which has a tendency to randomly reset itself for no apparent reason.
I would like to inspect the Android system log file just prior to the reset, however I am unsure how to do this.
I have tried the app "Log Collector", however, the logs produced by this app only contain information from the last start-up, ie they don't contain the logging I'm interested in - before the "last start-up", around the "last shutdown".
Any advice out there?
You will probably get better luck on Android Stack Exchange, unless you are looking to do this programmatically. In which case take a look through the Log Collector source code and see if you can modify it to save you a txt file that will persist through a restart so you can go back through it once the device is rebooted.

Is it possible to enable a driving mode like that found on the Galaxy S phones when the user presses a button?
Or is this not built into all android phones?
You can create such a "mode" using Tasker (found in the Play Store). Basically you set up actions that occur based on certain events (such as a button press). Actions include changing brightness/volume settings, triggering apps etc...
For example, I created a button that sets me "Available"/"Unavailale" for phone calls - it doesn't just turn the ringer off, it shoots the callers right to VM...
It takes a bit of work (and isn't free), but Tasker is pretty powerful & you can typically find help online fairly easily.

Is there somekind of log (like an OS event log or something) that could maybe give me an idea as to why an application crashes on start?
The specifics (irrlevant to the question itself):
I have recently purchased a copy of Final Fantasy Dimensions for my Android phone (Motorla XT615 with Android 2.3.7) and everytime I click on it I get a flicker (black-screen) and then it goes back to the home screen.
Does anyone have any suggestions or am I way off base with this one?
Thanks,
There are apps a user can download from Google Play that can grab log files to be sent to a developer. For example: Log Collector and CatLog.
Note: With Jelly Bean and later, root access is required for an app to access the logs of another app, so the log-grabbing apps listed above may not be useful for the average Android user.
If you have Android development tools available, see How to get Android crash logs?
You could read the log using apps such as CatLog or Log Collector, but it probably isn't going to help you find the FC issue, unless you actually had the code for it right in front of you, which you wouldn't have unless you were a dev of the game. But, anyways, good luck!

We've been testing the idea of running a tablet (or anything) as a display for long periods of time, and things are MOSTLY ok, but every couple days it seems like the tablet just crashes. No power issues, I assume no memory issues. When I look at it, its obviously powered up, but the screen in blank, and clicking power to wake it up does nothing. Must long-press the power button to get a hard reboot (no confirm dialog).
Totally confused by what's happening. Not SURPRISED so much. I actually would've been a little surprised if this was all trouble free.
However, wondering where I should look for info. Even if we can't get this to work out, I'd like to send some sort of error report. I looked in /data/dontpanic, but it was empty. Any other places for system crash logs?
Never figured out root cause. Seems like a strange hardware issue. Is there a way to remove questions?

I was looking for an app for phones (iPhone, Android and SmartPhone - any or all) that would simply run in the background and place any scanned upc code digits into the currently active textbox.
I've Googled for quite a while and only found an Android app that actually replaces the keyboard of the phone.
It seems like it should be easy (I have many for PCs) but I haven't done any handheld programming since Windows CE days so I don't know if this is possible (can apps see other apps controls in these phones).
Has anyone ever come across an app like this?
use the iphone sdk from zbar and you can do it inside your app.
You cannot do this system wide. You can only add this functionality to your apps.

I have a phone that was rooted for me by one of the cleverest guys I know. Sadly, I've since lost all contact with him. I've decided to try to port cyanogenmod to this phone, however I'm completely on my own here: no tools, no recovery image, no nothing. All I have is the official LG updater, and my phone in its ideal rooted state.
So then, here is my question. I want to be able to fall back on something when I inevitably screw up this phone in my quest to port CM to it. Should I expect the LG updater to replace the awesomely rooted bootloader my friend put on for me? If so, then I would lose the ability to play with this phone.
Have to answer my own question here: Yes.
I performed an update with the hopes of grabbing an updated system image, and bam! Unlocked bootloader is gone.
