[root] live logcat lite (v. 3.0) Разработано Chainfire |
live logcat is the one and only boot animation replacement that shows the actual logcat log (Android debug messages). It looks a bit similar to a BIOS boot. Handy for developers too! Unlike other similar apps, the information you see on screen is real and live, not a pre-recorded fake.
The paid version price is aimed at being "one beer" (at the bar, not the supermarket). Google does the price conversion, but if it comes out way above that in your area, let me know.
!! requires a fully rooted device !!
!! install on DEVICE, NOT on SD-CARD !!
The paid version adds features to hide the copyright notice, enlarge the text size, and rotate the display. For the ultimate geekgasm, get the paid versions of both live dmesg and live logcat, and display both in split screen mode during boot. In that case you can also switch between the three modes during boot by tapping the screen.
The application uses some (root) trickery to get itself installed and running, and it may not be compatible with all devices. It also requires writable /system in many cases ("S-OFF"). It has been tested and found working on the following devices (though it may not work on all firmwares and kernels for a specific device):
- Samsung Galaxy S
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- Samsung Galaxy S III
- Samsung Galaxy Note
- Samsung/Google Galaxy Nexus
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7"
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1"
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7"
- Asus/Google Nexus 7
- Samsung Vibrant
- Samsung Captivate
- HTC/Google Nexus One
- HTC Thunderbolt
- HTC Desire
- HTC Desire Z (T-Mo G2)
- HTC Desire HD
- HTC Incredible
- HTC HD2
- HTC Evo
- HTC Hero
- Motorola Droid
- Motorola Droid X
- Motorola Cliq
- Motorola Milestone
- Motorola Atrix 4G
- MyTouch 4G
- LG Optimus 2X
It is likely to work on many more devices, if you use a non-listed device and it works, please leave a comment! Note that it will never work on ALL devices, so please don't just rate it 1-star if it doesn't work for you.

[2012-08-05] sfot: Not working on my Asus TF-101. OK on LG Optimus V On my ASUS TF-101 has a brief flash of text, then just a black screen for the rest of the boot. Could be something to do with the custom ROM I'm running. Uninstalled. It works fine on my LG Optimus V. |

[2012-05-05] Mike: Awesome Idea I have been looking for something that would let me see what was going on during the boot process on my Xoom. Unfortunately, this does not work on it. All I get is the Motorola logo until the boot up is complete. I gave it 4 stars for concept and the fact that it does work on other devices. |

|
[2012-03-02] Cory: Love it but Causes to many fc's on many apps. Even after deleting. Optimus v backside iho |
|
[2012-02-25] NN: Works on defy! -ALMOST!!! (Breaks Camera preview ) When you try to perform a hot reboot as the screen just turns blank before it shows the lockscreen. The embedded reboot option does not show the logcat either because it's a hotboot. I think this may be the reason why many users on other phones are unable to use the app. Just do a NORMAL reboot ;-) EDIT: IT SCREWED UP MY CAMERA PREVIEW!!!! Uninstall and camera will work normally. Please add this to the app description because its hard for users to find this out by themselves! ROM: CM7.2 |
|
