### Getting debug info via logcat
#### With a computer:
- connect the device via USB
- open command prompt/terminal
- enter `adb logcat > 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 a device (with root)
- open terminal app *(can be enabled in developer options)*
- get root access via "su"
- enter `logcat -d -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!
