hoe you are looking for this try this code :

String line;
        while ((line = r.readLine()) != null) {
            int ind = line.indexOf("package: name=");
            if (ind >= 0) {
                String yourValue = line.substring(ind + "default =".length(), line.length() - 1).trim(); // -1 to remove de ";"
                System.out.println(yourValue);
          }

Try this code..

Get package name of application from apk file.

All information from manifest

aapt dump badging <path-to-apk>

Get only package name and main Activity Create applicationInfo.sh file with below data

package=`aapt dump badging $* | grep package | awk '{print $2}' | sed s/name=//g | sed s/\'//g`
activity=`aapt dump badging $* | grep Activity | awk '{print $2}' | sed s/name=//g | sed s/\'//g`
echo
echo package : $package
echo activity: $activity

execute command as

<span class="skimlinks-unlinked">applicationInfo.sh</span> <path-to-apk>

This will print package name and main activity. You can modify .sh file as per your need.
