"currentDBPath" contains the path of the DB. You can copy it as a file and save it some where else using the following steps.

String currentDBPath = "/data/"+getApplicationInfo().packageName+"/databases/db_name";

FileChannel src = new FileInputStream(currentDB).getChannel(); // source
FileChannel dst = new FileOutputStream(backupDB).getChannel(); // destination
dst.transferFrom(src, 0, src.size()); // to copy from source to destination
src.close();
dst.close();

Hope this is what you are looking for.
