Solution

  • If you install the app AppXplore from Google Play, you can inspect your installed applications and learn the package name and the Activities in the APK.

    I've verified it just now and it worked by starting Adobe Reader from adb shell:

    am start -n com.adobe.reader/com.adobe.reader.AdobeReader
