I just uninstalled 4.2.1 because I couldn't find the developer options any more in the settings, and thus was unable to use adb.  Why do they make that so difficult?

However, it will not work on Android 4.1 and higher. aLogCat can only
report its own LogCat messages, not ones from other processes. That's
because READ_LOGS can no longer be held by normal SDK apps (it is
signatureOrSystem now).

The hidden Developer Options on a 4.2+ device has a "Take bug report"
option that emits the same report as does the magic key combination.

Other than POWER + VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN, I am unaware of a way to
collect the bug report on 4.1 without a copy of the Android SDK
installed.
