About a week ago I cleared logcat with the "clear logcat" button on the top left of the logcat screen. Since then, nothing shows up in logcat.

This may sound like some duplicate question, but I have tried every accepted answer with no change. I need some ideas or solutions. Don't close this saying it's a duplicate please.

I have invalidated caches/restarted.

Restarted Android Studio.

Restarted my phone.

Killed, Restarted, updated the adb.

Restarted computer.

Pressed alt+6 multiple times to restart logcat.

Hit the restart button in the logcat panel. Then changed options like debug/verbose as other solutions say.

I have also checked and rechecked every field in logcat (verbose, no filter, etc) and have tried every possible combination, including the usual "fix" of verbose + no filter. I can't even get logs (Log.i, eg) to show up.

Another solution was to go to Tools>Android>Enable ADB integration. This option no longer exists.

More info: Windows 10, newest version. Android Studio 3.4.2.

Edit: My question is DIFFERENT because NONE of those solutions have worked, as stated originally.

I have also now done a complete clean reinstall of Android Studio and still no working logcat.

Edit 2: So I guess this must be a bug of some kind? No solutions after weeks of trying everything. I'll contact Android support I guess? Hopefully it works out.

  • What do you mean "newest version" for Android Studio? There are beta and canary versions too... – SnakeException Aug 09 '19 at 21:51
  • on the right side of the logcat window, have you changed the dropdown between `No Filter` and `Show only selected applcation` ? – a_local_nobody Aug 09 '19 at 21:58
  • @a_local_nobody yes, I have tried every default logcat configuration, on the right with no filter, only selected, etc, as well as the left-center panel (verbose, error, etc). – therealone Aug 10 '19 at 00:37

  • @SarthakJoshi I have tried every reply in that thread, and did so before making my own question. – therealone Aug 10 '19 at 22:27
  • Then re-install your Android Studio @therealone. – virusarthak Aug 12 '19 at 03:55
  • @SarthakJoshi thanks, but I have three times so far. Twice being total clean installs (deleting anything and everything to do with AS on the computer, appdata stuff, etc) – therealone Aug 13 '19 at 04:28
  • I am asking you to Un-install your Android studio and Re-install it had you tried that.I am not saying to clean the project and re-build it. @therealone – virusarthak Aug 13 '19 at 04:34
  • @SarthakJoshi yes, I meant uninstalling and reinstalling Android Studio. – therealone Aug 13 '19 at 07:48

Try adding debuggable: "true" to the application tag in manifest. Compile your project now and you'll saw every log in the logcat. Hope it may help you.

  • Late reply, but it turns out my ZTE phone is notorious for not allowing logcat. Many people report the same with this phone. – therealone Mar 20 '20 at 11:24

My model of ZTE phone does not allow logcat. People have reported the same issue with this phone. So it's the phone and not Android Studio or my app.
