Solution for the dreaded 'Force close' dialog.
When exception occurs in main thread, new activity is started with exception's stacktrace. You can add 'Send' button to your liking.
See test project in attachment.

Device owners: please test and report

This is excellent! Can this be set as a service so it will detect all "force close" situations or does it only work with the application it's placed in?

Yes, it only works for application that called CrashHandler.attach() on its threads.
About "force close" service: I think the only possibility is to periodically analyze logcat for crashes. Though I don't know whether it can be done. Also there is that 'Exception viewer' program in DevTools, which also can give pointers.
