Prereq: Developer mode
Sometimes you (or someone like you) wants to develop android application on Jolla.
Even the blind 'adb logcat' might not work out of the box, it's not all bad news. Once APK is built, transfer (scp) that to device into directory: /data/app.
Now begins the interesting stuff. Shutdown alien-dalvik on command line as root:
systemctl stop aliendalvik.service
then enhance LOG settings:
export ANDROID_LOG_TAGS="*:d"
Finally start it:
systemctl start aliendalvik.service
Now alien puts out a lot of debug stuff. You can read them on device with logcat:
/opt/alien/system/bin/logcat
It's recommended not to make the change permanent into alien dalvik's scripts as there will be a lot of traces flowing.
Thanks a lot for this tip! This is exactly the information, I needed.
In order to fulfill "Prereq: Developer mode", I did
And typed all those commands.
