android database file not loading on real device, Basic Computer Science

Assignment Help:
i have an android app which uses a database file called question db which is stored in the assets file. I have tried a database example called android application development but for some reason it doesnt seem to work on the real device

Here is the database code

package net.learn2develop.Databases;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.SQLException;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.util.Log;

public class DBAdapter {
public static final String KEY_ROWID = "_id";
public static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
public static final String KEY_EMAIL = "email";
private static final String TAG = "DBAdapter";

private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "MyDB";
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE = "contacts";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 2;

private static final String DATABASE_CREATE =
"create table contacts (_id integer primary key autoincrement, "
+ "name text not null, email text not null);";

private final Context context;

private DatabaseHelper DBHelper;
private SQLiteDatabase db;

public DBAdapter(Context ctx)
{
this.context = ctx;
DBHelper = new DatabaseHelper(context);
}

private static class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper
{
DatabaseHelper(Context context)
{
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
}

@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db)
{
try {
db.execSQL(DATABASE_CREATE);
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion)
{
Log.w(TAG, "Upgrading database from version " + oldVersion + " to "
+ newVersion + ", which will destroy all old data");
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS contacts");
onCreate(db);
}
}

//---opens the database---
public DBAdapter open() throws SQLException
{
db = DBHelper.getWritableDatabase();
return this;
}

//---closes the database---
public void close()
{
DBHelper.close();
}

//---insert a contact into the database---
public long insertContact(String name, String email)
{
ContentValues initialValues = new ContentValues();
initialValues.put(KEY_NAME, name);
initialValues.put(KEY_EMAIL, email);
return db.insert(DATABASE_TABLE, null, initialValues);
}

//---deletes a particular contact---
public boolean deleteContact(long rowId)
{
return db.delete(DATABASE_TABLE, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null) > 0;
}

//---retrieves all the contacts---
public Cursor getAllContacts()
{
return db.query(DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_ROWID, KEY_NAME,
KEY_EMAIL}, null, null, null, null, null);
}

//---retrieves a particular contact---
public Cursor getContact(long rowId) throws SQLException
{
Cursor mCursor =
db.query(true, DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_ROWID,
KEY_NAME, KEY_EMAIL}, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null,
null, null, null, null);
if (mCursor != null) {
mCursor.moveToFirst();
}
return mCursor;
}

//---updates a contact---
public boolean updateContact(long rowId, String name, String email)
{
ContentValues args = new ContentValues();
args.put(KEY_NAME, name);
args.put(KEY_EMAIL, email);
return db.update(DATABASE_TABLE, args, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null) > 0;
}
}
