I have pulled some databases from Firefox OS device (SMS, Contacts) and I've opened them in SqliteBrowser.
in table "object_data" there is a "data" with blob type. My question is: Is there a way to convert this blob to a plain text? Which decoding is used? Regards, Nino V.

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no way to do this easily. The blob in the 'data' column is an internal encoded representation of a JavaScript object/value that is then compressed.
The only way that I know of to look at this data is to import the sqlite database (and its corresponding files directory) into a local Firefox profile. Then you can use the built-in Developer Tools Storage Inspector to look at the database.
