I assume you want to do this at runtime, so your app can read its own package_id w/o having this hardcoded. For that you need to use PackageManager's getPackageInfo() method:

protected String getPackageName() {
    try {
        PackageInfo packageInfo = getPackageManager.getPackageInfo(getPackageName(), 0);

        return packageInfo.applicationInfo.packageName;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStacktrace();
    }

    return null;
}
