[Q] - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear Experts,
I am using Samsung Galaxy III , Android 4.1.2 , model is GT-I9300
I want to locate the file where the Personal Language Data is stored (Predictive text)
The Keyboard I use is Samsung keyboard.
I went to Samsung Keyboard Setting > Predictive Text > Personalized Data is check on. I can not find any clue how to export this data to a text file or database file so i can browse / edit it or transfer it to another device.
Thanks to any help!

Seems like that info is stored in data/data/com.android.providers.userdictionary (you can use Titanium Backup, for easier migration).
PD. For the next time, please use a descriptive title.

location of personal data language gti9300
I searched the root but there is nothing of com.android.providers etc...
The data is definitely there... because I can switch it on and off... but how to access the file storing it... any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks

TalkBox - how to get voice messages from iphone to pc
In order to copy voice messages created by talkbox app from your iOS device all you have to do is to gain access to your device file system with any free software (I used iExplorer ). acess your device and you will see at the root file system the directory User->Applications and there all you application data is stored - one of them is TalkBox (you will recognize it by enter every folder and check for the folder that finish with '.app' or see the icon of the application inside it). all the messages are in [talkbox-folder-id]->Documents->Audio at caf files (Core Audio Format). export it easily with your software to your pc. Cheers and Good Luck !

SMS Database Android

Hi,
I'm trying to create a desktop (java based) application that extracts SMS from an android device and prints the SMS onto a relational database. I just have a few questions......
/*Answer Found*/
After research I found out that the SMS are stored in a database. I've been pointed in various directions, but the most common is directory is com.android.provider.telephony.SMS although I can't actually find it on my phone. My phone is rooted and I'm looking for the file using a "File manager" app from the Play store.
So my first question would be "Where is the SMS database stored"? I'm assuming it's the same place for all phones as long as it's android based. Please correct me if I'm wrong......
I'm aware the database will be encrypted. Does anyone know what type of encryption is on the database, and if so - is it easy to crack?
Thanks in advance,
Wazza
Update: OK - So it turns out the file explorer I was using was a bit......naff. I've downloaded another and am now able to see the relevant DB.
My idea was to run the developers USB debugging mode onto the computer and extract the DB like that - However, the folders / files being shown when it's plugged into the PC are those on the SDCARD. (I believe this is the level above root?).
Update 2: Seems as if I jumped the gun posting this topic. A few more hours research and I've got to where I need to be.
For those who don't know - this is how I did it.
Plugging your phone into the PC and selecting USB Debugging mode temporarily disables the "SDCARD" on your phone so you can't tamper with it whilst uploading files via the PC.
I downloaded a file manager that allows the user to view root access files / folders. I then found the mmssms.db, copied it and pasted it into a folder on the "SDCARD". I was then able to plug the phone into USB Debugging mode and transfer the database file from the phone onto my desktop.
My next challenge is viewing the database. As started in the OP, I'm aware the database is most likely encrypted. How would I go about breaking this encryption and viewing it on a database.
:good:
If you want to make backup of SMS, just use SMS Backup & Restore. It will export your database to xml file.

Move Swiftkey Dictionary to New Phone

Hello,
I recently upgraded my S9+ to Note10. Everything transferred over fine except for the Swiftkey dictionary which houses all my learned words.
Apparently there was never a way to do this.
I am able to download the list from their backup on Google drive as a zip file.
Dose anyone know where the contents can be dumped on my new phone to enable all the old saved words? I havent been able to find a "swiftkey
" directory to do this.
Thank you

Is there a way to export your history on Opera mobile for android? (Please help I need it)

TLDR: Is there a workaround to view and export my Opera history on android?
What happened: I am on a Samsung Note 10 running Android 11. I accidentally closed a tab and deleted it from the reopen tab section. I want to retrieve the history of that tab. I know Opera has it saved somewhere because when I look at my history I can see some of the searches from that tab. However Opera on Android does not have a way to search or export your history.
What I tried: First, I tried finding my history file. On Opera for desktop you can find your history file and copy it somewhere else to export it. According to this post Opera for android also has a way to export data such as bookmarks using a file manager so I think there should be a way to export your history. However when I view my Opera data folder with ES file manager the folder is empty with no history file. I think you need root access to view those files but rooting your phone requires you to flash the bootloader which wipes all your data. Is there a way to access these files without rooting or can I root my phone without data loss?
Next, I tried to view my history using Opera's sync function. However according to this post Opera's history sync does not save all the pages you visited.
At this point I don't know what else to do and I can't figure out how to get my full history even though I can see it in Opera's history section. If anyone knows something that could work even if it is unlikely please tell me. Any help would be appreciated.
Also if you know any other forums I can post this question to please let me know.
