Will not work on Android 4.1 Jelly Beans

[GoogleCodeExporter]

READ_LOGS permission on Jelly Beans (Android 4.1) will not be granted anymore 
to normal apps.

Apps are only allow to read their own logs.

See for more information 
https://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/e94e00e6

You could try to implement a function to grant yourself READ_LOGS permission 
with for users with rooted devices.

users to manually allow this.

I used titanium backup to change to a system app and that seems to fix the 
problem.

I followed the tip to use Titanium Backup and changed it to a system app. That 
also fixed the issue for me. Bummer I had to do this, but at least it works 
now!

You could do as in that app and request Root permissions for aLogCat:

You also have to use execute a Shell with su instead of the default sh. See 
https://github.com/nolanlawson/Catlog for a working logcat implementation with 
superuser access.
