SQLite problem on Samsung Galaxy

[Andras]

Testing a new app on a variety of devices has thrown up an odd result on a Samsung Galaxy; attempting to access data gives the following error message:

SQLite Exception: file is encrypted or is not a database; while compiling.

It doesn't seem to be related to the SD card; at least, demounting and remounting it have no effect. Other devices (and the emulator) have no problem.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Stange...
Once I had problem with my sqlite db on Samsung Galaxy, stating that the db was locked. I quit my app, then cleared RAM of device, actually this was the problem, db was locked by my app still running. Perhaps, you can give it a try?

Nope, doesn't seem to be that, but thanks for the idea.

Anyone got any other ideas? I'm tearing my hair out here, and I really don't have enough to be able to do that with impunity!

And is it my impression only, or do the Samsung devices in particular seem to come with a lot of problems?

I have a problem with Samsung devices (I5500, I9100G) entering USB debugging mode. Generally they do not behave like standard Androids should do. Very annoying.

I have a Galaxy S2 I9100 running android 2.3.6 and haven't had any problems

cheers Ricky

Thanks Ricky; I suspect it's an OS problem in the particular phone; but as it isn't my personal device (borrowed from a staff member for testing!) it's going to take me a little while to sort out. I'll get it back from her on Tuesday and start some fairly detailed checking on what's going on there.

As I have observed elsewhere, Ah, the wonderful world of computing!
