Please help me with the error below which I get on Huawei devices only. I assume these devices store the database somewhere else... or...?
Error message: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: no such table: places (Sqlite code 1 SQLITE_ERROR): , while compiling: SELECT pl_web_id FROM places ORDER BY pl_web_id DESC LIMIT 1, (OS error - 2:No such file or directory)
