If you believe that logcat logs are never helpful for tracking down issues, 
we can agree to disagree. 

You stated above that "most of the runtime exception indicate bugs in 
code." Are you to assume that a handled checked exception means that there 
aren't any bugs in the code? I don't, and that's why log messages can be 
helpful.    
An IOException isn't necessarily the end of the story. You could be not 
using the right timeouts, the right credentials, or the right format. The 
user could have problems with DNS. Could you retry more or less times? 
Could you do something different on the server, if you control it? Are 
there some changes on a server you do not control? Is the user choosing an 
invalid path or filename and are you letting them do that when you 
shouldn't?
