I am writing an app that would look for other services (each in its own apk) installed on the phone and would start them. To achieve this, I was thinking of listing the /data/app directory and find the name of the installed APKs and start them as a service using StartService function with the name of the APKs as the intent.
When I try to list the data/app directory the list comes out to be empty. Probably it is the security issue and the application is not allowed to list this directory. Is there any other way I could achieve what I am trying to do? I don't want to specify the names of all the services to start in the activity trying to start these services so that I can install any additional service to be started later on without modifyng the main activity. Could I achieve this uisng intent filters somehow?
