Answer 1

I had the same problem on Eclipse 4.5.0(Mars Release), i tried @claganga 's solution but didn't work for me at first.

Here is my addition to the solution that worked for me :

1. Exit eclipse
2. Open up the file

~/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms.prefs

3. Just add those lines save, close it. Restart eclipse, wait for it until loading workspace. Then Exit.

ddms.logcat.auotmonitor.level=error ddms.logcat.automonitor=false ddms.logcat.automonitor.userprompt=true logcat.view.colsize.Level=54 eclipse.preferences.version=1

4. Open up the file at step 2 again, add the lines below step 5 one at a time. After adding one line save&close it. Restart eclipse, wait for it until loading workspace. Then Exit.

5. Repeat the process at step 4 again for the second line, third line etc.

   logcat.view.colsize.Application=169 logcat.view.colsize.PID=54 logcat.view.colsize.Tag=198 logcat.view.colsize.Text=619 logcat.view.colsize.Time=182
