Android - Add data to SQLite database, with SimpleCursorAdapter updated dynamically

Work on the article "A simple example using Android's SQLite database, exposes data from Cursor to a ListView", it was modified to add ui for user to add data to SQLite database. Once SQLite database updated, simple call cursor.requery() to update ListView dynamically.



Modify main.xml and row.xml to update our ui
