There is no utilites like find, grep , "ls -laR" to find files in Android os. IS there a way or is there a list of current default files in the os file system hierarchy?

A: 

Make a local copy of the files using adb pull /system system; adb pull /data data and use your favorite tools to search on your development machine. Or you can install BusyBox on the emulator, which gives you something intermediate between the extremely limited built-in command line and a full unix command line.

Busybox seems better: Ihave managed to do it:Find File system list<pre>Get http://android-dls.com/files/apps/busybox.xxxPS adb push busybox.xxx /data/local/# /data/local/busybox.xxx find / > /mnt/sdcard/fileslistPS adb pull /mnt/sdcard/fileslist android22-fileslist919 KB/s (1038142 bytes in 1.102s)</pre>
