I'm currently developing on an Android 2.3.4 device. I've got root access to the file system, and I'm looking for the location of the system log files (like /var/log) so that I can delete them, but could not find these files on Android.

Does someone know where these files are located?

Shouldn't this be over at SO? – Demizey Apr 11 '12 at 22:21

Here is an old question on StackOverflow about the same thing. It doesn't look like there's any way to view them directly, but there are various apps that can do it.

Thank you, but sorry that doesn't help. I don't want to view it, I want to delete it. – truell Dec 14 '11 at 9:17
@truell Delete what? The logs? Why? As far as I know, they don't persist for very long (reboot or max log line count, I think) – Bryan Denny♦ Dec 14 '11 at 14:31
