Contact the people who supplied you with the rooting instructions,
which I am reasonably certain did not come from this list.

Test on the emulator, where you have access to internal storage.

Or, add a database backup feature to your app that copies the database
to external storage.

Or, put the database on external storage in the first place during
early development.
