Android studio logcat nothing to show

Solution 1:

Restarting logcat helps me always.

Solution 2:

I get into this state often. Logcat is blank. Debugging works, I can hit breakpoints. No filters are set. Log level is on Verbose. I fix it by repeatedly looping through the following:

• Restart logcat (see Zatziky's answer above)
• Change the log level to Debug (or anything else) and back to Verbose.
• unplugging and plugging back in the device
• running adb kill-server && adb start-server
• Close Android Studio and launch ddms on the command line.
• Restart Android Studio

And finally restarting the computer if all else fails.

The problem is intermittent, I think Android Studio is just buggy.
