adb logcat - no output, adb shell works though

Question

I have a strange problem after Oreo update - 'adb logcat' stopped working.

Note that device is properly connected - I can debug, I can view logs in Android Studio, even I can start adb shell and do logcat but no direct logcat out from the adb command.

So in short,

# adb logcat

Absolutely no output. However, following works (logcat from the adb shell)

# adb shell
logcat

Any idea?

Answer 1

try these steps (even though your logcat is open) in android studio go to

        View->Tool Windows->Logcat

see if it works
