Mono for Android provides a window to view all Android log messages directly in Visual Studio. However, you can’t copy these log messages.

Since I’m a well-behaved programmer, I filed a bug report for this.

For now, I have to use monitor.bat from the Android SDK’s tools directory to work around this issue.

For me, Windows Server Backup (2012) is actually a huge bug itself. Just have a look at my backup history:

Best of all: Every failure gives a nice cryptic error message (without any details), like:

• “There was a failure in creating a directory on the backup storage location.”
• “None of the items included in backup were backed up.”

• “The specified component was not reported by the VSS writer.”

So far, I haven’t been able to get a reliable backup via Windows Server Backup.

So, until I get this fixed, let’s start with something light:

Take a good look on how the dates are sorted. Nice, isn’t it?

Today I got this error when I tried to install an extension in Google Chrome:

After some searching I found the solution: I needed to go to google.com and log me in with my Google account. *sigh*

The screenshot’s message reads:

OKI-LPR service program is active

and it asks me: Yes or No?

Where the heck is question in this message???

Yet another bug in Mono for Android: The app doesn’t terminate on uncaught exceptions in OnCreate().
