It could be because `adb shell cat` is appending a newline to the output. `adb 
pull` won't do that.

The use of StreamWriter was just to easily write text. The actual "solution" is 
the use of Context.OpenFileOutput(string, FileCreationMode), which does allow 
use of `adb pull` and `adb push` as long as you know the filename:

        $ adb push some-file.txt /data/data/Scratch.PublicFiles/files/foo.txt
        72 KB/s (2752 bytes in 0.037s) 
        $ adb shell cat /data/data/Scratch.PublicFiles/files/foo.txt
        # get updated file contents

As long as it's acceptable to "just  know the filenames" (i.e. `adb shell ls 
path` won't work), then using Context.OpenFileOutput() should be fine. It's 
only if you need to permit directory listing that you need chmod(2).
