## Start contributing :hammer\_and\_wrench:

Make sure you read [SETUP.md](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/blob/master/SETUP.md) and [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) before you start working on this project. But basically: fork this repository and contribute back using pull requests to the master branch.
Easy starting points are also reviewing [pull requests](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/pulls) and working on [starter issues](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22starter+issue%22).

### Getting debug info via logcat :mag:

#### With a linux computer:

*   enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
*   open command prompt/terminal
*   enter `adb logcat --pid=$(adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client') > logcatOutput.txt` to save the output to this file

**Note:** You must have [adb](https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html) installed first!

#### On Windows:

*   download and install [Minimal ADB and fastboot](https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-2-9-18.2317790/#post-42407269)
*   enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
*   launch Minimal ADB and fastboot
*   enter `adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client'` and use the output as `<processID>` in the following command:
*   `adb logcat --pid=<processID> > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt"` (This will produce a `logcatOutput.txt` file in your downloads)
*   if the processID is `18841`, an example command is: `adb logcat --pid=18841 > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt"` (You might cancel the process after a while manually: it will not be exited automatically.)
*   For a PowerShell terminal, replace `%USERPROFILE%` with `$env:USERPROFILE` in the commands above.

#### On a device (with root) :wrench:

*   open terminal app *(can be enabled in developer options)*
*   get root access via "su"
*   enter `logcat -d --pid $(pidof -s com.nextcloud.client) -f /sdcard/logcatOutput.txt`

or

*   use [CatLog](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nolanlawson.logcat) or [aLogcat](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat)

**Note:** Your device needs to be rooted for this approach!

## Development version :hammer:

*   [APK (direct download)](https://download.nextcloud.com/android/dev/latest.apk)
*   [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.nextcloud.android.beta/)
