thread exiting with uncaught exception: NO stack trace

问题

My application is causing a force close somewhere but instead of getting a FATAL EXCEPTION with the usual (and very informative) stack trace in my LogCat, I only receive only the following 4 lines:

06-27 07:08:54.546: D/dalvikvm(14351): GC_FOR_MALLOC freed 9923 objects / 657416 bytes in 21ms
06-27 07:08:54.769: W/dalvikvm(14351): threadid=20: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d7f0)
06-27 07:08:54.796: W/dalvikvm(14351): threadid=21: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d7f0)
06-27 07:08:54.796: I/Process(14351): Sending signal. PID: 14351 SIG: 9

This is in DEBUG mode with NO FILTERS applied on the LogCat!

What could be causing this behavior?
Is there a way to tell what's causing this exception?

Update: Thanks to @assylias below, I've been able to implement:

final UncaughtExceptionHandler subclass = Thread.currentThread().getUncaughtExceptionHandler();
Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(new Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler() {
    @Override
    public void uncaughtException(Thread paramThread, Throwable paramThrowable) {
    Log.getStackTraceString(paramThrowable);

    subclass.uncaughtException(paramThread, paramThrowable);
    }
});

Which produced these added lines:

This is certainly much more useful information, but now I'm struggling with the following:

The application doesn't force-close now, despite the call to subclass.uncaughtException(). Why?
What is the meaning of all those stack overflows? What could I be doing that's so taxing on my poor Android test device?
How can I tell which part in my code causes this?

Update: Log.getStackTraceString(paramThrowable); wasn't actually printing anything. The extra print that I received was from the bogus subclass.uncaughtException(paramThread, paramThrowable); The right way of logging the full stack trace is by using Log.e(TAG, "uncaughtException", throwable).

The only question remaining now is how do I re-throw the exception? Just do a throw paramThrowable?

Answering my last question: Eclipse won't let me throw without surrounding with try/catch, which led me to understand that what I want is not a re-throw but a killProcess(). Problem solved.

You could set a default uncaught exception handler at the beginning of your app and log some data in there (example below is using a java logger but easy to transpose to Android):

private static void setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler() {
    try {
        Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(new Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler() {

            @Override
            public void uncaughtException(Thread t, Throwable e) {
                logger.error("Uncaught Exception detected in thread {}", t, e);
            }
        });
    } catch (SecurityException e) {
        logger.error("Could not set the Default Uncaught Exception Handler", e);
    }
}

this is going to be tedious, but i would single step through until it breaks with the debugger. then you can add a more general catch

catch(Exception e){ }

All exceptions extend from Exception so that may help you further diagnose you're problem.

One more idea, perhaps you're app is running up the device memory. The JVM could be killing you're app without telling you because of a JVM shutdown on memory error.

I know this is old but if anyone else wants to know about exiting as normal after dealing with the uncaught exception:

final Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler androidDefaultUEH = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler();

Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(new Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler() {
            @Override
            public void uncaughtException(final Thread thread, final Throwable ex) {
                // Handle exception however you want, then:
                androidDefaultUEH.uncaughtException(thread, ex);
            }
        });
