Answer 2

Use LogCat, you can lookup its method on the Android Dev Guide to see which one works for you. I chose verbose so my debug statements look like

Log.v("MyAppName", "Inside my function now, its so dark");

To show the content go to Window -> Show Views -> Other... -> LogCat and watch for where your errors occur.

NOTE: I am on my phone and could not provide the link for you and the path to view LogCat may not be 100%, my apologizes

Answer 3

You can also view the debug info created by Log.x(tag, yourString) (where x is the type of output, v = verbose, d = debug, e = error etc) using ddms, which will also highlight the different types of output differnt colors, very useful!

Answer 4

Use logcat, but if it "Works on My Machine" and its on the marketplace you can have users install "Log Collector" and then have them email you the log if you have a user who is willing to help troubleshoot the problem. Then you can read your logcat outputh and the exception details in the log they send to you (which is from their phone).
