    <p>I am using this code</p> <pre><code>public class PeopleDBHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper { public static final String TABLE_NAME = "Person"; public static final String DB_PATH = "/data/data/com.machinarius.labs.preloadedsql/databases/"; public static final String DB_NAME = "preload-test.sqlite"; private static final String DB_PREFS = "whyDoIHaveToDoThisAgain?"; private Context parent; public PeopleDBHelper(Context context) { super(context, DB_NAME, null, 1); parent = context; SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences(DB_PREFS, 0); if(prefs.getBoolean("firstRun", true)) { prefs.edit().putBoolean("firstRun", false).commit(); onCreate(null); } } @Override public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase) { Log.i(getClass().getSimpleName(), "onCreate()"); InputStream source; OutputStream destination; byte[] buffer; try { source = parent.getAssets().open(DB_NAME); destination = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(DB_PATH + DB_NAME)); buffer = new byte[512]; while(source.read(buffer) &gt; 0) { destination.write(buffer); } source.close(); destination.flush(); destination.close(); } catch(IOException ex) { Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), "IOException", ex); } } @Override public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase, int i, int i2) { } } </code></pre> <p>And i have been wondering... why do i have to implement that silly hack with SharedPreferences in order for onCreate to fire? Even after wiping application data from the Settings menu and calling getWritableDatabase() onCreate would not fire, leading to crashes coming from the persistence layer. What did i do wrong?</p>

    3. COMy guess is that onCreate is called only once when you first open the DB. If you are testing your code, then, may be you can put the code in onUpgrade and keep changing the DB version so that onUpgrade gets called everytime you start debugging your app.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
