Well I ve tried all of the other answers and nothing is working for poor logcat  My issue with logcat is that it never worked to begin with  From the time I installed Android studio and finally was able to connect a device to adb it never gave me output  It s probably caused by my borked 32 bit Windows 7 setup though    So I wrote a batch script to run through the terminal to run apps with logcat   adb shell am start -n  com package name com package name Activity  -a android intent action MAIN -c android intent category LAUNCHER adb shell pidof com package name  gt  pid for  f   i in  pid  do  set pid   i  echo  pid  adb logcat   V --pid  pid  ENDLOCAL   Put this with corrected directory paths and package names into a logcat bat or whatever bat  file   place the file in your AndroidStudioProjects package name  folder then you can run      C  User me AndroidStudioProjects package name logcat or whatever    in the terminal   Note that you can change what the logcat displays by changing        V   In the adb logcat command   example   E shows only  E rror tags    I hope this was helpful to someone else

Full nuclear solution  ONLY USE THIS AFTER TRYING EVERYTHING ELSE because this will erase all your settings and preferences as well as stored images and everything that makes your emulators run until you reinstall and reconfigure  In my case it took about 20 minutes for both steps because I didn t customise a lot except for using Darcula    Delete your  AndroidStudioBeta config files directory   For linux users this is found under  home  username   AndroidStudioBeta For windows users  I m not sure  The documentation on it is rather vague in my opinion  Probably somewhere under C  Users your user  Application Data   Check to see if it works yet  if it doesn t then also reinstall the SDK    Rather drastic but I tried all the other things on this page  connected device  no filters  restarting the service  everything on this page and it just didn t work

Some custom rom s disable logging for performance reasons  squeezing   s wherever they can  Check your rom s in-built apps or tweak menu of your rom to enable this   I was running Kushan s Galaxy S4 Rom on my i9505 and I wasn t aware that it had disabled logging by default in order to gain the most minute level of performance increase  but apparently this isn t uncommon on custom built  performance  oriented roms   Took me an age to discover this - very annoying as it would show me how many messages were logged  just not their detail

In Android studio 0 8 0 you should enable ADB integration through Tools -  Android  before run your app  Then the log cat will work correctly  Notice that if you make ADB integration disabled while your app is running and again make it enable  then the log cat dosen t show anything unless you rebuild your project

Logcat can fail if you are using more than 1 version of adb at the same time  One in Android Studio  and one in the terminal   You might have different version of adb from   sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb  which will create  usr bin adb the Android SDK which contains  android-sdk  platform-tools adb  or from the output of an AOSP build which creates out host linux-x86 bin adb  To see if this problem effects you  open idea log using  Help -  Show Log in Files  and look for a line like  Initializing adb using  home repkap11 android-sdk platform-tools adb   Compare this path with  which adb  in your terminal  If they don t match  this problem effects you   Android studio looks for  android-sdk  platform-tools adb and doesn t care about your PATH  I replaced the version of adb in android-sdk using a symlink  but simply  sudo apt-get remove android-tools-adb  would work as well

Easy fix that worked for me  after trying some of these other suggestion    My logcat was sitting blank in a separate window  on my second screen    Just had to drag the Logcat tab back to it s original place in the debug panel next to the Debugger and Console tabs  and VOILA    it began immediately updating and showing all processes verbose   So   If your logcat is anywhere outside of the debugger panel  i e  the logcat tab isn t sitting nested alongside the debugger and console tab  then it won t receive updates and will sit there blankly   Don t know if this is an issue with older versions of Android Studio   But again  easy to try and if it works    it works

I just fixed it on mine  Look for tiny icons on the far right of the DDMS display which restore the Devices Logcat view and the ADB View    When the DDMS first came up with both the  ADB Logs  and the  Devices   logcat  tab showing  The  Devices   logcat  is the one that should be showing the device output  but was blank  Somehow I managed to hide one or the other of those tabs  I forget exactly how  But  off to the right there was a tiny icon that said  Restore ADB  view  and I clicked it and it came up  Then there was another tiny icon that said  Restore Devices logcat view   I clicked that  and all of a sudden it appeared and was showing the device output again

This may not be your issue  but I ve found that when having multiple windows of Android Studio open  logcat is only directed to one of them  and not necessarily the one that s running an active application   For example  Window 1 is where I m developing a Tic-Tac-Toe app  and Window 2 is where I m developing a weather app   If I run the weather app in debug mode  it s possible only Window 1 will be able to display logcat entries

It s weird to still encounter this problem even on a recent version of Android Studio  I read through the long list of solutions but they did not work for me  The accepted answer worked on an earlier version of Android Studio   I guess it was v2 3   I did the following to get Logcat working again    Logcat   Show only selected application   No filters      Logcat   No filters   Show only selected application     I expected resetting logcat should ideally give me the same effect but it didn t  Manually toggling filter was the only thing that worked   This is on Android Studio 3 0 1  stable   I can t update it before finishing the current project  The issue occurred when I started Android studio in the morning to continue the work I left at night  I hope the devs will look into this  It was painstaking to try over 15 solutions from stackoverflow and still see no result  It s even irritating to reveal another solution for future victims of this issue

Read this if you are still stuck with logcat being empty       I ve just solved this after MONTHS of annoyment and trouble  Nothing helped  the device monitor worked fine during debugging but the standard logcat view was always empty     The reason was annoyingly simple  The logcat view was there but it had been moved to 0 width by an update     You are in  ALT 6  Tab  you see two tabs in there  ADB logs  and  Devices   logcat  Devices   logcat really means that it consists of Devices AND logcat  split by a vertical border  The vertical border can be moved and during an update it seems to have moved to 100  right     This results in the logcat to be collected but not displayed  move your mouse pointer to the right of the tool window and just DRAG logcat back into view     This solution won t help everyone but I found many people with working ADB connection and still no logcat output  those might be hit by the same problem

I get into this state often  Logcat is blank  Debugging works  I can hit breakpoints  No filters are set  Log level is on Verbose  I fix it by repeatedly looping through the following    Restart logcat  see Zatziky s answer above  Change the log level to Debug  or anything else  and back to Verbose  unplugging and plugging back in the device running adb kill-server  amp  amp  adb start-server Close Android Studio and launch ddms on the command line  Restart Android Studio   And finally restarting the computer if all else fails   The problem is intermittent  I think Android Studio is just buggy

Nothing from all of this helped  my logcat was disfunctional     After a lot of angry searching I found a solution that seems to work  1  Make sure logcat itself is working  use DDMS from Tools- Android  and if it does close DDMS window again 2  Now go to Tab 5  Debug   there select Logcat  this is not the same logcat as in Window 6   3  The window is empty just like Window 6  but now start a debugging run  For me logcat in the Debug window now started to show all the stuff again  Also when normally running the application the Debug- logcat view is still functional while the Tool Window  6  logcat  is disfunctional as before    This is a hack  however it leads to the normal logcat behaviour with highlighted lines and syntax you need for debugging and developing  Just from now on you need to access it through the debug Window

When everything else didn t work  here s what I did  Since adb logcat worked nicely  I decided to rely on it  Running adb logcat -v color in the Android Studio s embedded terminal produced outputs similar to the normal logcat  and allowed code links to work too   But this came with a few issues   You can t specify a package to watch  Using the --pid  lt your PID gt  option  you can watch the output of a single process  But since every time you restart your app the PID changes  you have re-run this command with every restart  The colors are annoying  in my opinion   The output fields are not aligned with previous messages  the whole thing is not well formatted which makes following the logcat much harder than it should be  the same happens with the embedded logcat  though    So I decided to make my own tool to automatically watch my package PID s  and prettify the logcat output  import java awt AWTException  import java io    import java util ArrayList  import java awt Robot

this code   code             Override public String toString     return code             Just dump this code into Logcat java and compile using  javac Logcat java  And run inside the Android Studio s embedded terminal  java Logcat  lt your package name gt   For example  java Logcat com nomone vr desktop  The result looks like this   It s highly customizable  I ve separated most of the options in the first section of the app  so you can tweak the colors and formatting easily  If the adb tool is not in your PATH environment variable  just set its full path in the ADB FILE PATH variable  in the code  before compiling  When the application is running  you can type the following shortcuts   c to clear the screen and local buffer  v  i  d  w  e to change the logcat level  q to quit gracefully  Ctrl c works too   Unfortunately  you have to press enter after pressing these keys  Seems like Java doesn t allow single character input from console without writing system specific code  Sorry  Disclaimer  This doesn t work if multiple devices are connected using adb  I haven t thoroughly tested this  I ve only used it for a while on a few devices  I haven t tested this on Windows or Mac  but I tried to avoid using anything system specific  so it should still work   I hope this solves your problem

That occasionally occurs to me while using emulator  I just plug in a device and run the app  The Logcat gets back to work and so it does when I get back to the emulator   I guess that just switching two devices and or emulators does the trick as well

Not a technical answer but you might want to check the search box for the logcat  If there is any character inputted  your logcat will be empty as it will be searching for that certain character or word  and then if its not present  your logcat log will be totally empty
