I'm trying to write a file in my app's android internal storage space. After so many trials, I was finally successful using this method Writing/Reading Files to/from Android phone's internal memory . However, when I go to data/data/package_name/files, I cannot find my package, and cannot even find the MyFile.txt. In fact, I can't find them anywhere in internal memory. Why is that?

1yes, my phone is not rooted. That makes sense then, but how come I can see other folders/files for other applications installed on my phone? What is the code that I can write to allow me to have a visible folder for my application? – McKenna May 02 '15 at 16:28
