I have had trouble recently while reviewing the Build an Android App and just changing some of the attributes and using my own facts. I was going fine then I hit an error. I know where to look, but the error messages mean nothing to me. I don't know how to interpret the error in order to fix it. Any help on how I can learn to understand the error messages in logcat, so that I could actual figure out what is wrong and what to fix.
