Answer 1

Take a look to the SQLCipher project. It is an open source library that provides transparent, secure 256-bit AES encryption of SQLite database files.

The web site offers a tutorial for Android.

Answer 2

SQLCipher + user's password could be the right implementation. We need user's password to encrypt the db rather than using the hard-coded strings.
