  • Maybe you could tell us what you are doing – Rob Nov 29 '14 at 23:32
  • If you are trying to access db in `system/data/app` - its not possible – Toumash Nov 29 '14 at 23:32

It's possible via adb:

adb -d shell 'run-as com.your.package cat /data/data/com.your.package/databases/dbname.sqlite > /sdcard/dbname.sqlite'
adb pull /mnt/sdcard/dbname.sqlite

  • hi Petr, Thanks for that but could its not working.. should i use commas as well ('') and what is use of cat ? .. Thanks – user1808596 Nov 30 '14 at 01:51
  • One non-rooted android device you can navigate to the data folder (containing the database) only using the run-as command with your package name. So you have to copy database file to sdcard (cat command ) and then you can read sdcard via mass storage or use adb pull for get your database. – Petr Duchek Nov 30 '14 at 02:08
