[android-developers] Re: How can i access the /data/data//files/my_file.txt on a real android device

You do not have permission to browse a listing (read) of the /data
directory, but you do have permission to access it contents (execute
for a directory). And you may have the r permission on the
directories and files your app creates.

So if you use something that lets you type in the full path, such as
the adb shell, you may be able to get down to a directory that you can
see.
