I don't quite remember this either, but have you tried.... adb shell logcat > log.txt
I believe its:
adb logcat > name of rom.txt

i just use adb logcat and it comes out. use control c to exit
If on Linux/Mac:
Code:
adb logcat > ~/logcat.txt
If on Windows:
Code:
adb logcat > %userprofile%\Desktop\logcat.txt
I'm running a script and want to log the terminal as the script is running. How do I do this?
Grab alogcat from the market or use 'adb logcat > FILE.TXT' advanced logcat has a switch to output it to a file but I do not know what it is.

install adb on your computer and do the adb logcat command adb logcat -d > logcat.txt and then upload to pastebin or dropbox

How do you provide logcat if phone dont boot??? For example you just flashed a fresh custom rom and it wont boot, how do you get logcat cause you cant even open terminal in phone to input those commands

here is a method that worked for me.
1. Turn off your phone (if stuck, just remove the battery).
2. At your command prompt, do "adb logcat > logresult.txt".
3. Plug your phone to your usb and power it.
4. After at least 1-2 minutes or until the phone has fully booted up, terminate your logcat session (ctrl+c)

Yes I think you are wrong.. It can show log generated during installation.. That too if the dev has written any "echo" commands.. It also generates some info like about any problem occurred while installation.. In advanced section has show log option..
hit thanks button! if above post helps u..

bro logcat and kmsg u cnt turn it off its for debugging stuffs like it stores all the info aba os live but don't worry it dose not use any system resources btw logcat keeps a track of your all java VM activities like apps loading crash connection etc and kmsg keeps the debug msgs from ur kernel like cache oom and many but u can force turn it off there is a way if ur rooted than only try make a small script for deleting file logs r always stays inside your emulated drive where kernel is loaded u can find it inside root directory /dev/log there u can c 4 files radio system etc if u del all u will find logcat stopped working i mean this is the only way 2 turn logcat off bt on everyboot those files will come so u need to make a script on boot using script manager or boot shell etc put commands like
Code:
busybox rm /dev/log/system
like that :highfive::good:
