Q: 

How to listen for Exceptions in Android?

Some of the analytics packages (for instance, Flurry) will listen for Exceptions and log them w/o actually catching them. How are they doing this?

+1  A: 

Probably via Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler().

+2  A: 

See Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler and the respective Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler which receives the Thread and Throwable involved.
