From a remote shell to your device or from your host machine, you can use the sqlite3 command-line program to manage SQLite databases + created by Android applications. The sqlite3 tool includes many useful commands, + such as .dump to print out the contents of a table and .schema to print + the SQL CREATE statement for an existing table. The tool also gives you the ability to execute + SQLite commands on the fly.

+ +

To use sqlite3 from a remote shell:

+ +
    +
  1. Enter a remote shell by entering the following command: +
    adb [-d|-e|-s {<serialNumber>}] shell
    +
  2. + +
  3. From a remote shell, start the sqlite3 tool by entering the following command: +
    sqlite3
    + +

    You can also optionally specify a full path to a database that you want to explore. + Emulator/device instances store SQLite3 databases in the directory + /data/data/<package_name>/databases/.

    +
  4. + +
  5. Once you invoke sqlite3, you can issue sqlite3 commands in the + shell. To exit and return to the adb remote shell, enter exit or press + CTRL+D.
  6. +
+ + +

Here's an example:

+
$ adb -s emulator-5554 shell
+# sqlite3 /data/data/com.example.google.rss.rssexample/databases/rssitems.db
+SQLite version 3.3.12
+Enter ".help" for instructions
+.... enter commands, then quit...
+# sqlite> .exit 
+
+ +

To use sqlite3 locally, instead of within a shell, + pull the database file from the device and start {@code sqlite3}:

+ +
    +
  1. Copy a database file from your device to your host machine: +
    +adb pull <database-file-on-device>
    +
    +
  2. + +
  3. Start the sqlite3 tool from the /tools directory, specifying the database + file: +
    +sqlite3 <database-file-on-host>
    +
    +
