Follow the instructions from this blog

It will walk you through all the steps you need to use to get a pre-created db into your app.

EDIT

You didn't mention that your db was large in the initial post. In that case you might want to try android-sqlite-asset-helper

I don't see where it says it, but I know I've seen Mark from CommonsWare comment that it will transfer any size file for you. You zip up the db, put it in your assets/databases folder, and follow their directions to code your db class and you should be good to go.

yes i am following the same blog but as i have mentioned that my database is big so that is the problem. is there any alternative instead of breaking database into part or keeping into asset folders

@Gaurav Sharma, updated my answer with something that may be more helpful than my first attempt. :)
