An application when installed on a device or on an emulator will install at    data data APP PACKAGE NAME   The APK itself is placed in the  data app  folder   These paths  however  are in the System Partition and to access them  you will need to have root  This is for a device  On the emulator  you can see it in your logcat  DDMS  in the File Explorer tab  By the way  it only shows the package name that is defined in your Manifest XML under the package  APP PACKAGE NAME  attribute  Any other packages you may have created in your project in Eclipse do not show up here
