[android-developers] Re: how to read the app package under /data/app
Hi all,
I just find a solution on get app package binary:
first, the manifest.xml should have permission: INSTALL_PACKAGE
then:
PackageManager pm = this.getPackageManager();
Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
mainIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
ListResolveInfo appList = pm.queryIntentActivities(mainIntent,
0);
Collections.sort(appList, new
ResolveInfo.DisplayNameComparator(pm));
int count = appList.size();
for (int i = 0 ;i count; i++){
new File f = new
File(/data/app/+appList.get(i).activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName+.apk);
if (f != null){
read file binary here
}
}
My question now is why the application's name under system/app have
different format from the app under /data/app. For example, the app under
system folder is looks like AlarmClock.apk, while the app under /data/app
fold is com..xxx.test.apk.

Seems like, you don't know what you need.
Use WallpaperManager to get wallpapper. Why you need filename from
package o_O?

Yes you can.
Just read it with
File apkfile = new File(/data/app/com.package.name);

[android-developers] Re: how to read the app package under /data/app
Because in /data/app they added automaticaly, and to keep file names
clear, they uses package name as file name.
Any way you can get all files in data/app and system/app:
for (int i = 0 ;i count; i++){
File f = new File(appList.get
(i).activityInfo.applicationInfo.sourceDir);
if (f != null){
read file binary here
}
}
p.s you don't need INSTALL_PACKAGE permission ;)

[android-developers] Re: how to read the app package under /data/app
The contents of /data/app and /system are private implementation details of
the platform and you should never touch them directly or make assumptions
about what they contain.
The PackageManager is the API for accessing all information about installed
applications. Please don't directly access .apks. (And in the code posted
previously for querying the main activities, there is absolutely no need for
the INSTALL_PACKAGE permission for this. In fact, third party apps can't
get that permission, period.)
