REPORT_ID

Since: 4.0 - Default: Yes

A unique identifier for this report. If you receive 2 reports with the same ID then ACRA sent the same report twice. Most of the time this happens on poor network conditions.

APP_VERSION_CODE

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Application version code. This is the incremental integer version code used to differentiate versions on the android market.

See PackageInfo.versionCode.

APP_VERSION_NAME

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Application version name.

See PackageInfo.versionName.

PACKAGE_NAME

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Application package name.

See Context.getPackageName().

FILE_PATH

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Base path of the application's private file folder.

See Context.getFilesDir()

PHONE_MODEL

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Device model name.

See Build.MODEL.

BRAND

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Device brand (manufacturer or carrier).

See Build.BRAND.

PRODUCT

Device overall product code.

See Build.PRODUCT.

ANDROID_VERSION

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Device android version name.

See Build.VERSION.RELEASE

BUILD

Since: 4.0 - Default: Yes

Android build details. Here is an example for the NexusOne with official Android 2.3.3:

BOARD=mahimahi
BOOTLOADER=0.35.0017
BRAND=google
CPU_ABI=armeabi-v7a
CPU_ABI2=armeabi
DEVICE=passion
DISPLAY=GRI40
FINGERPRINT=google/passion/passion:2.3.3/GRI40/102588:user/release-keys
HARDWARE=mahimahi
HOST=android-test-1.mtv.corp.google.com
ID=GRI40
MANUFACTURER=HTC
MODEL=Nexus One
PRODUCT=passion
RADIO=unknown
SERIAL=HT019P801851
TAGS=release-keys
TIME=1297306326000
TYPE=user
UNKNOWN=unknown
USER=android-build

See Build.

TOTAL_MEM_SIZE

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Estimation of the total device memory size based on filesystem stats.

AVAILABLE_MEM_SIZE

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Estimation of the available device memory size based on filesystem stats.

CUSTOM_DATA

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

Contains key = value pairs defined by the application developer during the application execution.

STACK_TRACE

Since: 1.0 - Default: Yes

The Holy Stack Trace. Details of the exception that caused the application to crash.

INITIAL_CONFIGURATION

Since: 3.0 - Default: Yes

Configuration fields state on the application start.

Example:

locale=fr_FR
hardKeyboardHidden=HARDKEYBOARDHIDDEN_YES
keyboard=KEYBOARD_NOKEYS
keyboardHidden=KEYBOARDHIDDEN_NO
fontScale=1.0
mcc=208
mnc=10
navigation=NAVIGATION_TRACKBALL
navigationHidden=NAVIGATIONHIDDEN_NO
orientation=ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT
screenLayout=SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_NORMAL+SCREENLAYOUT_LONG_YES
seq=117
touchscreen=TOUCHSCREEN_FINGER
uiMode=UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL+UI_MODE_NIGHT_NO
userSetLocale=false

CRASH_CONFIGURATION

Since: 3.0 - Default: Yes

Configuration fields state on the application crash.

Example :

locale=fr_FR
hardKeyboardHidden=HARDKEYBOARDHIDDEN_YES
keyboard=KEYBOARD_NOKEYS
keyboardHidden=KEYBOARDHIDDEN_NO
fontScale=1.0
mcc=208
mnc=10
navigation=NAVIGATION_TRACKBALL
navigationHidden=NAVIGATIONHIDDEN_NO
orientation=ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE
screenLayout=SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_NORMAL+SCREENLAYOUT_LONG_YES
seq=120
touchscreen=TOUCHSCREEN_FINGER
uiMode=UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL+UI_MODE_NIGHT_NO
userSetLocale=false

As an example of how this field combined with initial_configuration can help you debug your application, you can see here that the "seq" field has been increased from 117 to120. This means that 3 configuration changes occurred between the Application start and the crash. You can also see that the orientation changed from PORTRAIT to LANDSCAPE. There could be lots of issues regarding orientation (and other configuration) changes handling, so if you don't understand how a bug happens, having a look at this values can help you understand what the user did with his device.

Though, having seq value increased does not mean that these changes occured while your application was active. There can be lots of things happening between your application start and the crash. For example, a user can start your application and use it on day 1 without any issue, use many other applications in between, reopen your application on day 2 (which was still started but paused) and then the crash occurs. All the configuration changes that happened in between introduce a change in the seq value.

DISPLAY

Since: 3.0 - Default: Yes

Device display specifications.

See WindowManager.getDefaultDisplay()

Example:

width=480
height=800
pixelFormat=1
refreshRate=60.0fps
metrics.density=x1.5
metrics.scaledDensity=x1.5
metrics.widthPixels=480
metrics.heightPixels=800
metrics.xdpi=254.0
metrics.ydpi=254.0

USER_COMMENT

Since: 3.0 - Default: Yes

Comment added by the user in the dialog displayed in NOTIFICATION mode.

USER_APP_START_DATE

Since: 4.0 - Default: Yes

User date on application start.

USER_CRASH_DATE

Since: 3.0 - Default: Yes

User date immediately after the crash occurred.

DUMPSYS_MEMINFO

Since: 4.0 - Default: Yes (?) Requires DUMP permission for device running Android 4.0 (ICS) and later.

Memory state details for your application process.

Example (taken from android 2.3.3, content may vary with android versions):

Analysis of these data require a high knowledge of internal system memory handling. You can get some clues in this StackOverflow answer from Dianne Hackborn.

DROPBOX

Since: 4.0 - Default: No

Requires READ_LOGS permission.

Content of the android.os.DropBoxManager (introduced in API level 8).

The DropBoxManager is an alternative logging system which allows platform developers to persist data (text ot binary). There is small chance that these logging events are really useful for debugging your app... but you can add your own tags to be retrieved by ACRA. So if you ever can find some usage for it (maybe related with StrictMode?) then ACRA is already ready to collect them.

A few details were given about the usage of the DropBox by Brad Fitzpatrick in this StackOverflow answer.

If properly configured to retrieve system tags, here is the kind of content you can retrieve after a fresh boot on a Nexus One (with android 2.3.3):

Tag: system_app_anr
Nothing.
Tag: system_app_wtf
Nothing.
Tag: system_app_crash
Nothing.
Tag: system_server_anr
Nothing.
Tag: system_server_wtf
Nothing.
Tag: system_server_crash
Nothing.
Tag: BATTERY_DISCHARGE_INFO
Nothing.
Tag: SYSTEM_RECOVERY_LOG

LOGCAT

Since: 4.0 - Default: Yes

Requires READ_LOGS permission.

See configuration details.

EVENTSLOG

Requires READ_LOGS permission.

Logcat eventslog extract.

The eventslog is a lower level logging buffer. Its content looks like this:

THREAD_DETAILS

Since: 4.3 - Default: No

Retrieves details of the failing thread (id, name, group name).

Here's what is provided when the main thread crashes:

id=1
name=main
priority=5
groupName=main

And here is when a secondary thread which has been given a name (DoSomeBackgroundStuff) crashes:

id=91
name=DoSomeBackgroundStuff
priority=5
groupName=main

BUILD_CONFIG

Since: 5.0 - Default: Yes

All constants defined on the BuildConfig class as a list of constant name=value pairs. This will at a minimum contain a boolean DEBUG constant that states whether this is a debug or release build. The Gradle Android Plugin populates several other constants and provides a way to add custom constants during the build.

Here is an example:

BUILD_TYPE=debug
DEBUG=true
FLAVOR=
PACKAGE_NAME=com.android.sample
VERSION_CODE=10
VERSION_NAME=5.0
CUSTOM_FIELD=custom value

With the corresponding Gradle script fragment to set the value for CUSTOM_FIELD:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        buildConfigField 'String', 'CUSTOM_FIELD, '\"custom value\"'
    }
