Guest fonix232 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 Does anyone know if it is possible to get the log view of the system startup, instead of the android logo? I really want to get it (it was in the first beta releases of Android Emulator, and even the iPhone port of Android has it), it is simply so cool :unsure: On the old G1 there was a mod what made it possible, so I hope there is an option for the Blade too!
Guest Hopelessness Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 Seconded, this would be cool.
Guest ergo911 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 +1 it would be useful to debuging also, you'll see why it's not booting or boot loops's :unsure:

Guest lordofangels Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 can this will be help? nobootanimation Wasn't there a wallpaper that did just this, it was with the one of the android pissing on the apple, can't find it now, it's around here somewhere
Guest ergo911 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) can this will be help? nobootanimation Deleting the bootanimations just gives us a black boot screen but they just fake that verbose part. We can start up emulator with verbose output with -verbose string... can we add strings to phone kernel startup? Edited January 2, 2011 by ergo911
Guest Tom G Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 No great modifications needed. With the kernel options for the rs232 console enabled it also will display the console output on the screen (but it is hard to read when scrolling quickly). I don't think it works without enabling some kernel options. I'll look into it tomorrow.
Guest Arr Too Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 With the kernel options for the rs232 console enabled it also will display the console output on the screen (but it is hard to read when scrolling quickly). Ooh! -- cool! It'd be even nicer if it could be made to log to SD card, especially for debugging when the boot was unsuccessful -- is something like that a possibility at all?

It will only work if it gets far enough to start init, but at the start of init.rc put in something that does a 'cat /proc/kmsg > %somefile'. I've had problems calling cat directly so I usually put a script in the root and call that. I usually right the file to /data as init already auto-mounts that fairly early. Then reboot into recovery to read the file.
