Android: Retrieve logcat before crash (reboot) on a real device

Question

I am developing an application and during my testing on a real device I have found that it will crash and cause the phone to reboot (worrying I know...)

Is there any

Answer 1

From slashfoo's blog, (check the logcat page for exact syntax) hook up your computer to start off the logcat process in the background. adb shell nohup logcat -f /dev/[your sdcard] -n60 -r3600

Although it means logcat will be saved to the sdcard but every time you reboot, you must perform the procedure again.
