I solve question like this code

public ArrayList<String> getAllTable() {

    ArrayList<String> arrTblNames = new ArrayList<String>();
    Cursor c = ourDatabase.rawQuery("SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table'", null);
    c.moveToFirst();
    while (!c.isAfterLast()) {

        arrTblNames.add(c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("name")));
        c.moveToNext();
    }
    // make sure to close the cursor
    c.close();
    return arrTblNames;
}

Try this code sample

ArrayList<String> arrTblNames = new ArrayList<String>();
SqlHelper sqlHelper = new SqlHelper(this, "TK.db", null, 1);
SQLiteDatabase DB = sqlHelper.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor c = DB.rawQuery("SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table'", null);

        if (c.moveToFirst()) {
            while ( !c.isAfterLast() ) {
                arrTblNames.add( c.getString( c.getColumnIndex("name")) );
                c.moveToNext();
            }
        }
