How to Save a SQLite/Room Database that uses SQLCipher into a Filestream?

Question

I've just learned how to use SQLCipher here and I want to be able to save it to an SQLite file and I stumbled upon this approach where the file is saved via FileOutputStream. However, the FileOutputStream approach only worked when the database file isn't encrypted. Is there a workaround that you can recommend?

If not, my ultimate objective is actually the following:

1. Create an encrypted database using Room
2. Create an encrypted backup for this database
3. Give the user the ability send this file either via Google Drive, email, or some other means so that I can also view the database's contents if they need me to look over it
4. Make this process as seamless and as invisible, but also as elegant as possible

Thanks a lot!

Here's what I tried to do and it is pretty much a copy-paste of those two links I referred above:

For the database:

public abstract class MyDatabase extends RoomDatabase {
    public static MyDatabase myDatabase;
    
    // based on https://github.com/sqlcipher/android-database-sqlcipher
    public static synchronized MyDatabase getInstance(Context context) {
        if (MyDatabase == null) {
            final byte[] passphrase = SQLiteDatabase.getBytes("userEnteredPassphrase".toCharArray());
            final SupportFactory factory = new SupportFactory(passphrase);
            MyDatabase = Room.databaseBuilder(context.getApplicationContext(),
                    MyDatabase.class,
                    "my_database")
                    .addCallback(roomCallback)
                    .openHelperFactory(factory) // WHEN I REMOVE THIS LINE, THE ENTIRE DATABASE GETS SAVED AS A FILE INCLUDING THE TABLES, BUT WHEN THIS LINE IS ACTIVE, THE FILE IS REDUCED TO ABOUT 4kb WITH NOTHING IN IT
                    .build();
        }
        return MyDatabase;
    }
}

How I tried to save the database using FileOutputStream:

public void saveDatabaseToFileOutputStream() {
    File dbfile = this.getDatabasePath("my_database");
    File sdir = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS),"DBsaves");
    String sfpath = sdir.getPath() + File.separator + "DBsave" + String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis());
    
    if (!sdir.exists()) {
        sdir.mkdirs();
    }
    
    File savefile = new File(sfpath);
    
    try {
        savefile.createNewFile();
        
        int buffersize = 8 * 1024;
        byte[] buffer = new byte[buffersize];
        int bytes_read = buffersize;
        
        OutputStream savedb = new FileOutputStream(sfpath);
        InputStream indb = new FileInputStream(dbfile);
        
        while ((bytes_read = indb.read(buffer,0,buffersize)) > 0) {
            savedb.write(buffer,0,bytes_read);
        }

        savedb.flush();
        indb.close();
        savedb.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

The difference in saved file when the database is ciphered and not ciphered
