Start contributing :hammer_and_wrench:

Make sure you read SETUP.md and CONTRIBUTING.md before you start working on this project. But basically: fork this repository and contribute back using pull requests to the master branch. Easy starting points are also reviewing pull requests and working on starter issues.

Getting debug info via logcat :mag:

With a linux computer:

• enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
• open command prompt/terminal
• enter adb logcat --pid=$(adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client') > logcatOutput.txt to save the output to this file

Note: You must have adb installed first!

On Windows:

• download and install Minimal ADB and fastboot
• enable USB-Debugging in your smartphones developer settings and connect it via USB
• launch Minimal ADB and fastboot
• enter adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client' and use the output as <processID> in the following command:
• adb logcat --pid=<processID> > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt" (This will produce a logcatOutput.txt file in your downloads)
• if the processID is 18841, an example command is: adb logcat --pid=18841 > "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\logcatOutput.txt" (You might cancel the process after a while manually: it will not be exited automatically.)
• For a PowerShell terminal, replace %USERPROFILE% with $env:USERPROFILE in the commands above.

On a device (with root) :wrench:

• open terminal app (can be enabled in developer options)
• get root access via "su"
• enter logcat -d --pid $(pidof -s com.nextcloud.client) -f /sdcard/logcatOutput.txt

or

• use CatLog or aLogcat

Note: Your device needs to be rooted for this approach!

Development version :hammer:

• APK (direct download)
• F-Droid
