Access Android Application Database On Device (permission Denied)

I can't access my application database on my device. I tried these commands: /# adb shell /# sqlite3 /data/data/ANDROID.SQLite/databases/notes.db but I always get a permission den

Solution 1:

You can only do that on a rooted android device.

Alternatively, you may do this on the emulator which gives you access to that data for debugging SQLite database entries.

Solution 2:

I had the same problem with the permission. If you only need to read the database and not modify it or store it, you can do it in a easy way. First root your device. You can find a ton of tutorials to how to root your device. I prefer KingRoot. Afterwards go to the Play Store and download a SQLite Reader or Manager to access the database directly from your device. Since I only need to read the databases on my project and confirm their existence, I prefer SQLite DB Reader by AndroLd.
