Answer 1

Solution:

Add in your application tag:

android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"

As follows:

<application
    ....
    android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
    ....>

Answer 2

You can use the regex filter to hide the log message flooding your log:

^((?!isSBSettingEnabled).)*$

You can also hide more than one offending log by using |. For example

^((?!isSBSettingEnabled|OtherLog|OtherLog2|Annoying Messages).)*$

If you are using HttpLoggingInterceptor on the application that runs on a Samsung device, just set the loglevel to the body, it will fix everything. Something like this should work fine:

HttpLoggingInterceptor loggingInterceptor = new HttpLoggingInterceptor();
loggingInterceptor.setLevel(HttpLoggingInterceptor.Level.BODY);

A better solution is offered in Android 7.0 through network security configuration file. How to use it? 1. Add a network security config file under res/xml. 2. Add a domain config and set cleartextTrafficPermitted to “true”.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<network-security-config>
    <domain-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="true">
        <domain includeSubdomains="true">your_domain.com</domain>
    </domain-config>
</network-security-config>

3. Add your network security config to your Android manifest file under application.

   <application
       android:name=".MyApplication"
       android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config">

You are probably using a HttpUrlConnection or a HttpsUrlConnection. Maybe you can find out which class is logging by calling getClass() on the corresponding connection and turn it off with the Logger.getLogger("...").setLevel(Level.OFF);
