Answer 1

Set the debuggable=true in the manifest, export, install and sign the the app. Connect the device via USB, enable USB debugging. Then open the DDMS perspective, select the device and attach to your app's process (you will see the package name listed). If you have a rooted device, you can connect to any process if adb is running as root.
