Hi at all! We all know that Android Studio has always been nowhere close to Xcode for App development, there are hundred of bugs in every stable version I try to download.Īnyway, a problem I have since Android Studio 2, is that logcat shows nothing, unless I restart the emulator continuosly until it shows. Now you can see only the application related logs under this filter when you select the same. Now last and final step is filtering out the log ,Go to the drop down menu displayed top right corner of android monitor window and select Edit filter configuration In the filter window press the + button to add filter and in the PID field provide the previously copied pid and press OK(if you cant to capture the entire log make sure you have selected verbose as log level option )

Now in the memory usage dump,find out the application package name (in this case its google maps ) and copy the pid displayed

Before that make sure you have opened the application in your device. Once this is done your device will get listed in android monitor window ,click on “system information” button in android monitor window and select “Memory Usage” options. Open android studio click on android monitor iconĬonnect your device ,make sure adb drivers are installed and also USB debugging is enabled in the device under developer options Note : I have used android studio and make sure “Enable adb integration ” is checked (Tools>Android>Enable Adb Integration) The following are few simple steps in getting the process id of the application and applying filter. Many a times i found it hard to extract log for application that are not debug enabled or cannot be filter with package name ,so the easy way to filter the log is through process id a.k.a PID.
