Unexpected value from nativeGetEnabledTags: 0
AndroidAdtAndroid LogcatAndroid Problem Overview
I installed the latest version of the SDK (r21) and ADT 21.0.0. I tried simple code, and it works well, but now I get a warning in LogCat that did not appear in the previous versions:
> Unexpected value from nativeGetEnabledTags: 0
I googled it, and I found Issue 39723: Emulator spams LogCat with "Unexpected value from nativeGetEnabledTags: 0" message.
What does it mean?

Solution 1 - Android
I just ran into this problem, too. As a workaround I'm filtering the LogCat
output with the following expression on the by Log Message
field of the filter:
^(?!.*(nativeGetEnabledTags)).*$
Otherwise it is so spammed it's almost useless.
Following Laksh suggestion, if you want to filter this always without having to always write it on the Search for messages
field:
- Goto your
Logcat
- In the
Saved Filters
part on the left, click on theEdit selected logcat filter
(If Saved Filters is not visible then click on Display Saved Filters View in the Logcat) - There, in the by Log Message field, enter
^(?!.*(nativeGetEnabledTags)).*$
.
Solution 2 - Android
It's a bug in the emulator System Image for API 17.
At the moment, your workarounds are the following:
If you DON'T need API level 17
- Use an emulator with API 16 (or lower)...
- ...or higher (API 19 for instance, tested to solve the problem too).
If you DO need API level 17
- Use a real device: Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Nexus 10.
- Use the LogCat filter suggested by Hendrik. You'll have to edit every single filter you have, though (If you want to fix them all).

The link which you referred to has the answer. It is a bug introduced in the latest revision of the tools. In the followup comments you can read that a google representative says a fix is on the way.

Update the ARM EABI v7a System Image
from Android SDK Manager
and the warning wont be seen any more .. !! :)
Yes. This works only for ARM EABI System Image and not for Intel image.
Update
Seems like there is a Update available for the Intel x86 Atom System Image
for API 18 which fixes the issue (I have not tried it though). A link
to manually install the system image. Ofcourse its also available in Android SDK Manager.
But its only for Android 4.3. The 4.2.x developers might still have to wait for a fix..!
Solution 5 - Android
The problem with Intel x86 Atom images and "nativeGetEnabledTags: 0" is fixed with the release of the Android 4.3 (API 18) Intel x86 Atom image. I just tested it and can confirm that.
With ARM images this was fixed some time ago, I know ...
Solution 6 - Android
Since these mesasages are tagged with the Trace
tag, you can use simpler expression to filter them by Log Tag
field:
^(?!Trace)
That's it.
Btw, I also see these messages on the real device (Fly IQ4410).

I was getting lots of similar messages, so I needed better filters. Add these filters to the LogCat:
By log tag:
^(?!.*(GN_FW_TextView|GN_FW_Editor|SurfaceTextureClient|skia|AbsListView|Provider/Settings|InputMethodManager|jdwp)).*$
By log message:
^(?!.*(nativeGetEnabledTags)).*$
Solution 8 - Android
I have added the ^(?!.*(nativeGetEnabledTags)).*$
filter, but you can see how few it helps me:
from 1157 is filtered a few and 799 bypassed same ratio, but a bit bigger numbers:
I needed to add the "SpamFilter" to be able to use the Logcat:
by Log Tag:
^(?!Trace|ADB_SERVICES|BufferQueue|wpa_supplican|SurfaceFlinger|Settings/BW|Bluetooth HS/HF)
by Application Name:
^(?!com.android.systemui|system_process)
For me it made a bit usable the Logcat.
