Extract Android Logs

Step 1: Install ADB tools

Download the ADB Tools

Go to the Android SDK Platform Tools page and download the latest version of the SDK Platform Tools: https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
Extract the ZIP File
Extract the downloaded platform-tools.zip file to a folder of your choice (e.g., C:\ADB).
Optionally, set up system path for ADB 
Verify ADB installation by opening a command prompt and execute the ADB executable from the platform tools folder

Step 2: Connect your Android Device

Enable Developer Options on your Android device

Open the Settings app.
Scroll down and tap on "System" then "About tablet"
Find the "Build number" entry and tap it 7 times in succession to enable Developer Options.

Enable USB Debugging

Go back to the main Settings menu.
Tap on "System".
Find and tap on "Developer options".
Scroll until you find "USB debugging" and toggle it on.
Connect the device to your computer using a USB cable. On the oomnis tablet, this is the Micro-USB socket called OTG.

Step 3: Open a Terminal or Command Prompt

Windows: Open Command Prompt (cmd) or PowerShell.
macOS/Linux: Open Terminal.

Step 4: Capture the Logcat Output

To capture and save the logcat output directly to a file on your computer, execute the following command:
Quote
adb logcat -d > my_logcat.txt

Step 5: Capture the GetProp Output

To capture and save the getprop output directly to a file on your computer, execute the following command:
Quote
adb getprop > my_getprop.txt
This command will save the entire tablet properties information to my_getprop.txt in the current directory.
