Location of SQLite Database when application is executed on real device

Question

I have trouble with finding my SQLite Database.

As we can access the SQLite databases on a running emulator like below:

 adb -s emulator-5554 shell
 sqlite3 /data/data/package_name/databases/database_name

But what if I am testing my application on real device(HTC Here-Android) ? where does i find my database?

Answer 1

It's at the same location on the device as on the emulator. Although you can only see it with root access (su).

Answer 2

Usually, it will be in the same directory. For example, in my HTC Tattoo:

Of course, if you want to access that directory, you will have to have a rooted handset. Also, keep in mind most of the production handsets does not include the sqlite3 tool.

Answer 3

It will be present in the same location that is present in the emulator .If it is in /data/data//databases/ , it usually is in the same place in the real device also.

You should access it with root privileges .. :)
