I am able to view the database from eclipse(from file explorer), but I want to view the whole detail, I mean the data that I have inserted, which I am unable. And my complete Android installation has made on F Drive.
You can access this folder using the DDMS for your Emulator. you can't access this location on a real device unless you have a rooted device.
You can view Table structure and Data in Eclipse. Here are the steps
Install SqliteManagerPlugin for Eclipse. Jump to step 5 if you already have it.
Download the *.jar file from here
Put the *.jar file into the folder eclipse/dropins/
Restart eclipse
In the top right of eclipse, click the DDMS icon
Select the proper emulator in the left panel
In the File Explorer tab on the main panel, go to /data/data/[YOUR.APP.NAMESPACE]/databases
Underneath the DDMS icon, there should be a new blue icon of a Database light up when you select your database. Click it and you will see a Questoid Sqlite Manager tab open up to view your data.
*Note: If the database doesn't light up, it may be because your database doesn't have a *.db file extension. Be sure your database is called [DATABASE_NAME].db
*Note: if you want to use a DB without .db-Extension:
Download this Questoid SqLiteBrowser: http://www.java2s.com/Code/JarDownload/com.questoid/com.questoid.sqlitebrowser_1.2.0.jar.zip
Unzip and put it into eclipse/dropins (not Plugins)
Check this for more information
Dowlnoad sqlite manager and install it from Here.Open the sqlite file using that browser.

Launch the compatible emulator or device
Run your application.

Choose the running device.
Go to File Explorer tab.
Select the directory called databases under your application's package.
Select the .db file under the database directory.
Then click Sqlite manager icon like this .
Now you're able to see the .db file.
I recommend the firefox plugin(SQLLite Manager) if you always use firefox.
Here is the link
If you are able to copy the actual SQLite database file to your desktop, you can use this tools to browse the data.
1. Download SQLite Manager
2. Go to your DDMS tab in Eclipse
3. Go to the File Explorer --> data --> data --> "Your Package Name" --> pull file from device 4. Open file in SQLite Manager.
5. View data.
Open DDMS than in DATA>DATA>"Select your package like com.example.foo"> than select your database folder than pull that data
in eclipse you can see the pull an push icon on top right side ...
If you don't want to download anything, you can use sqlite3 tool which is provided with adb :
Examining sqlite3 databases from a remote shell
and :

The sqlite base file is stored in path data/data/my-package-name/databases/mybase.db
(Where does Android emulator store SQLite database?)
Sometimes, i get this file on a remote real device and i would like to copy it to android emulator on my Android Studio for debugging. In other words, i want that my application on Android Studio uses this base. How can i do it?
Another possibility: how to copy this base to a my real device who is connected to PC by USB cable
thanks a lot,
regards
Start your emulator.
Open Device File Explorer (a tab button at the bottom right side of Android Studio).
Go to the folder data/data/my-package-name/.
If there is no subfolder databases then create it by right clicking on the my-package-name folder and then New->Directory where you type databases and click OK.
Now right click on the folder databases and click Upload....
Navigate to the SQLite file that you want to copy, select it and click OK.
The .db file is generated from eclipse(android) form DDMS-->File explorer-->data--->data-->package name-->database. Then I select the database and click "push a file from device", and save it as .db file. How can I view this database?
If I Understood correctly you need to view the .db file that you extracted from internal storage of Emulator. If that's the case use this
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/
to view the db.
You can also use a firefox extension
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
EDIT: For online tool use :

One of the way to browse your database is to use questoid sqlite manager.
# 1. Download questoid manager from this link .
# 2. Drop this file into your eclipse --> dropins.
# 3. Restart your eclipse.
# 4. Now go to your file explorer and click your database. you can find a blue database icon enabled in the top right corner.
# 5. Double click the icon and you can see ur inserted fields/tables/ in the database
Download this Sqlite manager its the easiest one to use
Sqlite manager
and drag and drop your fetched file on its running instance
only drawback of this Sqlite Manager it stop responding if you run some SQL statement that has Syntax Error in it.
So i Use Firefox Plugin Side by side also which you can find at FireFox addons
Depending on your platform you can use: sqlite3 file_name.db from the terminal. .tables will list the tables, .schema is full layout. SQLite commands like: select * from table_name; and such will print out the full contents. Type: ".exit" to exit. No need to download a GUI application.Use a semi-colon if you want it to execute a single command. Decent SQLite usage tutorial http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2012/09/sqlite-command-examples/
I downloaded the jar file and placed it in /plugins directory. Restarted eclipse as asked for eclipse to load new plugin. Opened file explorer and navigated to /package.name/databases/file.db but not able to open it in the plugin. It appears unclickable. What to do here? Check screenshot.
From the emulator unistall the app.
Then in the code, when you create the database, name it with extension.
For e.g. if your database name is MyDB, then write it as MyDB.db
This will enable the Open File Icon on sqlite manager on eclipse.
As from your Screenshot it is clear that your database doesn't have an extension currently.
Therefore it is not allowing to open the database file but if you can see here
You can delete the database from here using the "-" option delete both the database and .journal file.
Add .db extension where you are creating the ordersManager database and run the application again.(Remeber to create the database)
when you will again come to DDMS to see your database and click on ordersManager.db file the icon which i have circled will become enabled then click on it and you will be able to read data.
Also you can pull the database from device and use something like SQLLiteBrowser
Here are thr few useful links :
1) Link 1
2) Link 2
The mistake that you are doing is that you didn't mention the ".db" extension with your db name. Delete your previous db and name a new db with .db extention i.e. "Sample.db" try it i hope it will solve your problem.
You have to mark the database like you did in your screenshot but then you have to click the database icon in the top
also its better to place the plugin in the dropin folder because you haven't loaded it by a url
Try this download SQLite3 manager from this http://sqlitemanager.en.softonic.com/ . And install it.And pull your database (i.e. file.db ) from DDMS to now location and try to open it with using Sqlite3 manager.
And you will be able to see your database contents.
I think this is what you want.
Try this..
Download the Android Sqlite Manager here.
Add it to your eclipse > dropins Directory.
Restart eclipse and go to DDMS.
Select .db file in DDMS Perspective
click Sqlite Manger icon.
Now you're able to open the .db file.
I am creating an Android Application and I recently downloaded a SQLite Database Browser. I have created a database which has 3 tables. Now I'm wondering on how to import the created database into Eclpise IDE.
I hope someone could help..
You have to put your SQLiteDatabase file inside the assets folder of your project.
Open the DDMS perspective in Eclipse. There you should have a tab saying File Explorer (remember to select your emulator device in the Devices tab). You can use this to browse to your database file on the emulator. The database should be located in \data\data\[name_of_your_app]\databases. You can then select the database file (.db) and copy it to a local folder (there is a Pull a file from the device button in the upper right corner of this tab).
Also note that this is only possible on an emulator, since you're not allowed to browse the content on a real device this way.
i am new in android database.i downloaded sqlite database browser.
can u give me the steps how to use already generated database in android sdk with eclips.
give me proper structure where to store database in eclips folder structure
When you create a database in your application, it is stored in
/data/data/com.zenika.droidcontact/databases/nameOfYourDatabase.db
You can find this file by going in the DDMS perspective in Eclipse, in the file explorer view, select the emulator and then, follow the path here above to your file. Then, select it and you can use the "Pull a file from device" to get this database on to your computer. Then you can start SQLite Database Browser. now you can open your file, modifiy it in the software, execute request with the 3rd tab, browse tables and data with the first and second. Then, you can save the database modified and push it back onto the emulator just the same way as you pulled it, but with the push button.
Is this clear or do you need more explanation?
