I can't really make out what you're doing.

You have a 'bos.write(myByte);' line that references bos, with no clue
what that is.

I don't know what myvals or x are intended to be.

I don't see a filecon.close() anywhere, or a try/finally block to
ensure it's closed (and preferably deleted) in the event of an
exception.

So I'm afraid I can't offer any insight into your code.

But I can answer your last question. In non-Eclipse DDMS, you have to
invoke the file manager from the Device/File Manager... menu item to
get the window with the Push and Pull buttons.

The equivalent in Eclipse is the Android 'File Explorer' view. Go to
Windows/Show View, and choose the File Explorer view. It will have the
little android lower-case 'a' icon next to it. This view has the push/
pull icons over on the right on its icon bar.

DDMS shows a subset of the filesystem; you can see the rest if you go
in via 'adb shell'. But it's probably everything you're likely to need
to look at.
