Logcat is not Printing

Question

I am trying to Print some messages using Log.i but it doesn't print anything, the problem starts after I updated the Android studio.

How can I solve the problem?

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        Log.i("check","**************checking");
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    }
}

Add some screenshoot or something so we can see verything which device are you using, etc... — Skizo-ozᴉʞS ツ, May 08 '19 at 12:57
Check to see whether it prints when using `logcat` via a terminal session, `adb logcat -v color check:I *:S` — PPartisan, May 08 '19 at 12:58

Make sure you select the device you are using, you can do it on the top left side of the Logcat.

for example if you used an emulator and than a device make sure the device is selected.

An alternate solution, but it's not the best.

System.out.print();

Using this will make it difficult to search, as it does not have tag. – dcanh121 May 08 '19 at 14:28
@dcanh121 I was just providing an alternative. Searching was not something the question stated was a necessity.. Why the downvote? – Dylan May 08 '19 at 14:33

You can always just incorporate the tag into your message – PPartisan May 08 '19 at 14:38
Using "Log" class has many advantages, rather than using System.out.println(). https://stackoverflow.com/a/2220559 – dcanh121 May 08 '19 at 14:41
@dcanh121 Sure it does, but again, I was just providing an alternative suggestion. Why downvote an alternative suggestion that works (for better or for worse).. To deter new contributors to the site from trying to help? – Dylan May 08 '19 at 14:58
@Dylan I appreciate the alternate solution even if it's not the best. Cannot remove downvote unless the answer is edited. – dcanh121 May 08 '19 at 15:28

Try using the tag constant

public static final string TAG = "MainActivity"

Then do

Log.d(TAG, YOURMESSAGE)

Also as an alternative you can use System.out
