Comment (by eighthave):

 For a concrete example, my specific case was failing on "Could not bind to
 127.0.0.1:9050: Address already in use. Is Tor already running?".  Tor was
 outputting no messages because `add_android_log()` is executed after Tor
 binds to the ports.  So even moving it a little earlier would be helpful.
