Hi,

I've just set up a new handset.

Since changes ive made over night im getting;
- unfortunately, 'app name' has stopped.

I'm trying to generate a logcat, having no joy.

- handset; SGSV
- rom; XTRESTROLITE
- kernel; blaze


I have turned logging on via 'pimp my rom' tweaks.

Upon adb logcat command i get;
- Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': No such file or directory

So i set about tying to manually ensure logcat is enabled.

First with ADB;
> adb shell
> logcat-enable
Result;
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell
shell@klte:/ $ logcat-enable
logcat-enable
/system/bin/sh: logcat-enable: not found

Then via USSD code;
> *#*#2846579#*#*
Result;
Number dialled, no code.

Then i attempted to follow as per these instructions;

http://bitmote.com/index.php?post/2013/02/19/Enabling-Logcat-in-Custom-Android-Roms

I found system set to ro, remounted rw ok.

But ran into a dead end here;

"First you need to locate the logger kernel module...
logger.ko located in...your /system folder...
Try these locations:
/system/lib/modules/logger.ko
/system/modules/logger.ko"

The folder "modules" does not exist in system or lib/system.


Help would be much appreciated.

Cheers.
