Answer 1

I normally create a separate log class where i set a static DEBUG variable. Now all i need to go before getting a production build is to set that DEBUG variable to false.

public class Log {
     public final static String LOGTAG = "APP NAME";

      public static final boolean DEBUG = true;

      public static void v(String msg) {
        android.util.Log.v(LOGTAG, msg);
      }

      public static void e(String msg) {
        android.util.Log.e(LOGTAG, msg);
      }

      public static void d(String msg) {
          android.util.Log.d(LOGTAG, msg);
      }
}

For logging -

if(Log.DEBUG) Log.v("In some function x. Doing y.");
