From the adb shell you can do logcat > some_file

You can probably also issue this shell command from an application which has the necessary permission to read logs

open the cmd prompt

set up the path of our platform tools in android sdk

eg:

c:\android-sdk\platformtools > adb logcat > log.txt

This is the command to store the log in a file:

adb logcat > log.txt
