I made some changes to your exception handler so that the user will see the standard force close dialog on unhandled exceptions. What I am doing is getting the default android handler and passing it to the your default handler so that it can call the android handler after it is done. This is

Oops not finished. I made these changes in the Thread run method. // Get android default exceptions handler Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler orgHandler = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(); // Register default exceptions handler

1) When an exception occurs, the application will just drop back to the home screen and the user won't actually know that an exception has occured. Any luck on sorting this out? A dialog that informs the user of the error and a report this problem button that opens the email app would be

Well, I am using a workaround currently, which means that the application will restart. On application restart a dialog will then notify the user that a problem has occurred. The problem here is that I cannot get a context in the default exception handler (where I dump the stack trace) and thus I

Okay, I have started out with a very simple and not at all streamlined implementation. Some documentation and a binary can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/android-remote-stacktrace/ I'll be updating it, as I go along, but if you have anything you want to add, please let me know. The idea

I do this in my beta applications and it is incredibly valuable. I am not aware of any existing implementations, so I built it myself. I'll store the stacktraces on the phone and upload them to a webserver, where I have a PHP script which will store the stack trace to a plain text file and also

Mads, Thats exactly what we all need. How do you get unhandled exceptions or do you put try...catch in all your code blocks? Do you submit stack traces individually or batch them up? Any chance of sharing some of the code? We really need a generic component for this - it will be a huge boost

Yes, you are right. It could probably be helpful to others and I'd be happy to share - I'll see if I can create a component somehow over the weekend. I don't have the code with me right now, but I'll be back ;) Basically I just have a default exception handler, which will catch all unhandled
