SysLog File Managers app for Android description
Records various log types and compresses them as a zip file. The logs are saved in the applications private cache directory named by the date and time.
You can access the zip files through the system document picker:
- Select the SysLog app to view collected log zips.
Log types supported:
- Kernel logs (dmsg)
- Last kernel log (last_kmsg, if device supports it)
- Main log (Logcat)
- Modem log
- Event logs
- SELinux audit logs
To enable access to some logs (Logcat and Radio) to SysLog, you will need to grant the READ_LOGS permission using a computer with ADB.
From a command line with adb available, you can grant the READ_LOGS permission via the following command:
adb shell pm grant com.tortel.syslog android.permission.READ_LOGS
This command tells the phones package manager to grant the READ_LOGS permission to SysLog.
