I'm building an app for Android using Cordova & html,JS. And using the Android emulator from the plain SDK Manager. I seem to have a lot of isues with my code, but I can't figure out what. So I need to check for errors in the console log like we do with browsers.

The only thing I've managed to do is use is the adb -e logcat > logcat.txt mand. Yet the output file is way too convoluted for me. And when I filter the output using adb -e logcat > logcat.txt io.cordova.app:D *:S, the output file contains only

--------- beginning of main --------- beginning of system

What can I do about it? Is there any other way learning the errors of my code?

If you have started the emulator through Eclipse you can see the logs in Logcat.

Window -> Show View -> Android -> LogCat
