title: Android ADB access to application databases without root
body: <p>Can anyone tell me, is it possible to use the ADB to pull and push a database from an app, without root privileges on the phone?</p>
  
  <p>For example, I know the location on my rooted magic and dream is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/data/data/com.xxxx.xxxx/databases/xxxx
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I know that you can use ADB without root, but when trying to use the shell - you can't view that location without root privaliges. But I have been told you can use push and pull if you know the file you want?</p>
  
  <p>Basically I want to pull a database from MY app on a non rooted phone modify it and push it back on.</p>
  
  <p>Only trouble I have is, the two phones I have are both root and I don't have access to a non root one to try it out.</p>
