Android Question DB SQLite doesnt modified

[mrjaw]

Hi!
I have an app that uses a sqlite database to store information about sales. The problem is that when I install the app the db cant be updated the info doesnt stored. I read that the DB is localized into a directory that is just for reading.
How to store info into my DB ? Where I must put ?

Are you distributing an existing database or do you want to create a new one?

Is your database in the projects Files directory which means in the code File.DirAssets ?
If yes, you must copy the database somewhere else, File.DirAssets is read only.
Either in File.DirInternal if the database is used only by your application or File.DirRootExternal.

and of course don't copy it anew every time the App restarts...

As already suggested in post #3, in File.DirInternal if the database is used only by your application or File.DirRootExternal.
Have a look at the beginning in the Activity_Create routine in the SQLiteLight2 example in my signature, it uses File.DirInternal.
Or read chapter 4 SQLite Database in the User's Guide.
