Answer 1

if you are trying to get database which is stored in applicaiton package from device thn you will not get direct access from device /data/data/app packagename/databases/ ..you can access and modify using helperclass bt direct export nt poss AFAIK ... bt from emulator u cn gt

If you to export database from in sd card from application package

try this

private void copyFromDataPackgeToSdCard() throws IOException {
    try {
        File sdCard = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
        File appDataDir = Environment.getDataDirectory();
        if (sdCard.canWrite()) {
            String currentDBPath = "//data//" + getPackageName()
                    + "//databases//"
                    + DatabaseImplementation.DATABASE_NAME;
            String backupDBPath = DatabaseImplementation.DATABASE_NAME;
            File currentDatabase = new File(appDataDir, currentDBPath);
            File backupDatabase = new File(sdCard, backupDBPath);

            if (currentDatabase.exists()) {
                FileChannel src = new FileInputStream(currentDatabase)
                        .getChannel();
                FileChannel dst = new FileOutputStream(backupDatabase)
                        .getChannel();
                dst.transferFrom(src, 0, src.size());
                src.close();
                dst.close();
            }
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("copyFromDataPackgeToSdCard", e.getMessage());
    }
}
