I have build an app and installed in my android studio emulator. One of the activity contains a recycler view which loads contents from database. The database was in localhost and I fetch the contents using php code. I have used "http://192.168.1.101/fetch.php" to fetch the contents. But the app is not able to load the contents while running in emulator on the other hand when I run it in my android phone it runs smoothly.
I am using WAMP. I can access internet in emulator (checked some websites using chrome etc). But problem occurs in case of this database content retrival.
I am a beginner in app development. So it will be very helpful if you provide the answers in an easily understandable way.
Please help me how to solve these problem..
I have created an SQLite database in Android Studio and would like to view the data in a table form, for which I have installed the DB Browser for SQLite. Unfortunately, I am not able to open up Android Device Monitor to access the data file. I have tried running Android Studio as an admin, but that doesn't work either. It is my understanding that most components of the Android Device Monitor are deprecated, but I am not able to find out what else to use.
you can use stetho, using this you can view your DB from chrome

I have created an Android application with an SQLite database. Now I want to view the contents / or the data stored in my database. A few weeks ago I used to able to enter the Android Device Monitor, export the database to a file and view it used a third party program called 'My Database Browser'. Now when I try to open the Android Device Monitor, it crashes and displays the following error:
An error has occurred. See the log file /Users/Mark/Library/Android/sdk/tools/lib/monitor-x86_64/configuration/1498057715134.log.
Can anyone help me get around this, or explain a different way of exporting my SQLite database so I can view the data stored within my database?
You can use Facebook Stetho library. One of it's features is database inspection for Android apps.
I am using android studio to develop my first android app.
I am plugging in my phone, and testing my app on there to test changes as I go.
I am using a sqlite database. How do I view this database, the tables, and the contents (rows) of those tables?
Upon Google searching I found that this can be done when you root your phone. But surely you dont have to root your phone to view your databases when your developing an app?
Update:
People are using terminology assuming knowledge. If you want me to copy a database, explain how, if you want me to use adb, explain what it is. Otherwise it means not much to me. Thanks
Pull the sqlite database named as XYZ.db from your simulator or device using adb shell command or GUI interface provided by the AndroidStudio. Then Open it using The Sqlite Browser. It's a killer app for sqlite browsing.
As android is shipped with the sqlite3, you could use command line to view the data base saved inside the device / emulator. Command reference is Listed Sqlite3 android command
If you feel lazy enough to discover how to pull files from emulator / device using adb pull, following answer may help you.
how to pull
At least in my case I needed to root my device. After that I installed SQLiteEditor. With this app you can modify and view your database. Or if you don't want to install a new app you can use a root explorer and enter directly into your installed app in the DB. Is inside /data/data/{yourapp}.
Copy your database to your system
Using copy or paste Or
Using adb pull command
Then Googled for sqlitestudio-2.1.4, download and run , browse your database ,,then you can see your database rows, column, value etc.
So i have been looking for this answer for the past 2 days. all of them want to know how to extract the database file .sql from the device your testing your app on. What i want to do is use a manager, like fire fox's sqlite manager, to open the location of the file and view the data base as information is being entered. I did this once when i was using titanium, but now have switched to eclipse. So what i want is, when i am running my virtual machine, android emulator, i want to fine the location that it is reading the sql file from. doing this i can open it with my fire fox manager and as info is going into the file the manager will show me whats going in and out. Basically i want to see real time info from my internal database, either from emulator or phone. PLEASE HELP!
Go to this link and get the SQLiteManager plugin for eclipse.
