Stuff like this you'd have to have your own code to read the device
settings. If you're hoping for some automatic way to log all this
information, I doubt you're going to find it.

You are free to create and write to files on your own app's space (or even
the SD card) for logging purposes. I have a log class that not only writes
to the LogCat in debug mode but generates an internal log that I can send in
bug reports if and when the app crashes on user devices. It has been *far*
more useful than the generic stack traces in the developer console in
resolving issues that crop up in the wild. You just have to be careful about
logging only what's actually useful and keeping the log file size to
something reasonable for a mobile device.
