You could combine above answers like this:

 Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("chmod 700 "+getBaseContext().getApplicationInfo().nativeLibraryDir + "/ffmpeg ...");

You should use getBaseContext().getApplicationInfo().nativeLibraryDir instead of "/data/data/com.example.ffmpegnew/files/"

Try using this:

Process proc = null;
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder();
proc = pb.command("String...yourCommand")
                    .redirectErrorStream(true).start();
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                    proc.getInputStream()));

This code work for me for get system wakelock details in android.may be this will useful to you.
