Answer 1

android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: SQL logic error or missing database

Your problem is your query and exactly MATCH , it won't work ¹ . So change it to:

"... LIKE ?", new String[] {"f%"}

and now it should work.

¹ Match is introduced only with FTS3 and FTS4 tables so your table must be virtual and not ordinary as you most likely have.

Answer 2

By default, MATCH is not implemented :

The MATCH operator is a special syntax for the match() application-defined function. The default match() function implementation raises an exception and is not really useful for anything. But extensions can override the match() function with more helpful logic.

Looks like you could use GLOB instead of MATCH .
