I am using ADT plugin in Linux os .I am creating an android application which uses Sqlite database. I have viewed my database table many times using SQLite Browser .But now in file explorer when I click the Data it is not listing the data/your package name/databases/yourdatabse.db .How can I get the package name in file explorer?
I want to view my database table.Is there any other way to find it?
If its Real device we can not See Data folder inside data
but if its Emulator
Go to
data>data> Search for your package name>database>yourdatabse.db
Search your package name. Then inside database folder yourdatabse.db will be created.
Go to
data>data> Search for your package name>database>yourdatabse.db
Search your package name. Then inside database folder yourdatabse.db will be created.
If it is non-rooted real device then you can not See Data folder inside data.But all the emulators are rooted device .So in Emulator
Go to
data>data> Search for your package name>database>yourdatabse.db

I am new to alloy mvc framework.I was working in projects using SQLite.I kept SQLite file in asset folder and did query works in application.
An instance of SQLite file is created in simulator folder. My question is can we see database file in ios ,android device and where it is stored in device.
Please suggest me ..
Thanks in advance.
In Android, you can find your database at this location
/data/data/your.package.name/databases/your_db_name.db
for iOS simulator, you can find the database at this location :
/Users/USER_NAME/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/NOW_SELECT_YOUR_DEVICE/data/Containers/Data/Application/SELECT_YOUR_APPLICATION/Library/Private Documents/
Normally USER_NAME/Library the Library folder is hidden, you have to unhide it first.
You can use the Xcode's Organiser to access the database on the device.
First open the Xcode's organiser, then select your device, then choose your application, now download container from below settings icon, you will get an .xcappdata file.
Now select the downloaded container i.e. .xcappdata file and Show Package Contents. Now go in AppData/Library/Private Documents. Here you will get the database of your application.
Hope this will help you.
I am creating a sample application which will create a database, Inserts data and finally displays it in a spinner.
For testing I am using my android phone instead of Emulator (As I am fedup with its slow response).
My problem is application running succesfully but spinner is not displaying any result also I am unable to view any folder structure under DDMS->data.
I am confused whether database created or not, Please suggest me how to view the database if we use real device instead of emulatpor
You must start you emulator, browse the emulator files in the DDMS view then select File explorer then go to data > data > com.your.package > databases > your_database_name and a new tab will appear with your data! It won't work on a real device.
You can even pull/export the database and analyse it more effectively with SQLite Browser
enjoy !
You can't get SQLite databse file from an Android real device if it is not rooted. Because to access the data folder of your application you have to provide the permission for it.
But you can run your application in an android emulator and following is the way:
From DDMS, in Devices menu select your emulator.
You can see data folder in File Explorer.
Path is: data->data->Application Package Name->Databases->Database Name
U just goto File Explorer
Windows>show view>File explorer>data>package>database name to see your database
in emulator
I implemented my first app using Xamarin Studio (Mono for Android). This app stores some data in a SQLite db, which works fine on a Sony Tablet S device.
My question is: is there a way to get db file and see, for example, its size?
I looked up to the following path
/data/data/My-Application-Package-Name/databases/My-database-name
but it doesn't seem to exist.
Thanks for any help!
You can use Eclipse to go right to it using the sqlite manager plug-in (http://www.coderzheaven.com/2011/04/18/sqlitemanager-plugin-for-eclipse/)
Download the *.jar file from the website I reference above to the
"dropins" folder in eclipse (open your eclipse folder and you should
see it)
Then restart eclipse and go to the DDMS. You may have to do
windows->views-ddms if it isn't already being displayed...
Select your device from the left panel then use the file explorer to go to your data
directory/YOURAPP/databases. Hopefully there will be an icon that
shows up when you select your database. If not, rename your database to use the "db" ext.
Click it and it should open in the manager tab.
This is a valid database location (//data/data/My-Application-Package-Name/databases/My-database-name), but you can access it from file managers if you have root access only.
Look how it can be done here. Otherwise, if you want to get some info trough the code, you're doing something wrong, so publish the code and logcat.
How can I browse the SQLite database that I am creating in my app on my Android myTouch phone?
When I log in through adb shell, sqlite3 gives me a permission denied. Is there another way to check if my database and tables are actually being created, and if rows are being inserted?
I am not able to use the emulator, since it doesn't play videos etc. very well that is the main feature of my app, so I can only test on phone.
The entire database is a single file, so via the DDMS view in Eclipse or via the command line you can pull that file from the phone. You can then use SQLite DataBase Browser to view the contents, for example.
Using this library you can browse your SQLite database directly from your application

Its a single java activity file ,just add the java file to your source folder you can view the tables in your app database , update ,delete, insert rows to you table .Everything from your app.
When the development is done remove the java file from your src folder thats it .
It helped me a lot .Hope it helps you too .
