Answer 1

Nothing strikes me as wrong in your code.
Did you increment the DATABASE_VERSION field to make sure your onUpgradee() method is called ?
If you did that already, maybe try to uninstall the app from your device. That will erase the existing database. If this work, that would probably mean that your onUpgrade() method does not work.
Good luck.
EDIT : Check your onUpgrade() method. You don't have a space after "EXISTS". You need one otherwise the query won't work.

Answer 2

The new Logcat shows that you are having a different error. I think what it tells you is that you should have at least one column called "_id" in your table.
This is sort of a must have when working in SQLite on Android because some of the convenience methods look for this column name.
If you search StackOverflow, you will find some answers tell you that you can Alias this row and don't have to change the design of your table, but I'd say go ahead and change your design.
