i9300t, rooted stock 4.1.2. loads fine but doesnt log anything or show any ciphering indicator. Clicking refresh reloads the window but thats all. SuperSu shows a root access granted popup after every call/sms so it must be doing something. Darren and Chris, the right people to complain to are the baseband developers. They are the ones who decide to hide important info from users. Its a near miracle that this app is possible at all on such a modern device (compared to nokia 3310 or motorola c123). The telcos are also guilty for limiting the capabilities of phones, eg disabling tethering and disabling the ciphering indicator. Harry, it needs root in order to talk to the baseband.

Why make an app that only runs on outdated hardware and firmware? Let me know when you get to the s4 and 4.4.2 version and I'll download it.

But the S4 has been out for some time now. Please keep up the hard work for us S4 users, then the S5s. Thanks and I'm keeping this app just in case updates may come. Even if it does crash on any call. I don't mind. Just want it to work and I'm sure someday soon it will :-)

Installed this on an S3 running stock 4.1.2 rooted, thinking it would be a good safety net. Less than a day later, my phone was complaining about being completely out of sdcard storage space. I uninstalled some apps I don't use much and called it good. A few hours later, sdcard was full again (0.00 bytes free), so I had to root-explorer-hunt every directory to figure out why. I found tens of thousands of log and dump files (.bin) in /data/log and /data/log/err that had never been there before, and deleted them (6.4GB free again). An hour later, it was down to 4GB free again. I uninstalled Darshak, and the log files stopped. YMMV, but I think this app needs some TLC before it's ready for prime time.
