I answered the same question in mailing list, but answer here too, just in case.

You can open a prepared database file by SQLiteDatabase class. Please see the following test case as an example: https://github.com/robolectric/robolectric/blob/robolectric-2.1.1/src/test/java/org/robolectric/shadows/SQLiteDatabaseTest.java#L704

Note that disk based SQLite database on 2.1 has some issues e.g. It only works for existing database file, does not create new database file. Those issues are fixed on the master by this pull request: https://github.com/robolectric/robolectric/pull/654
