Answer 1

Looks like You can't have more than one helper for each DB. Here's explained why: http://blog.foxxtrot.net/2009/01/a-sqliteopenhelper-is-not-a-sqlitetablehelper.html

Answer 2

Add the TABLE_CREATE statement to onOpen(SQLiteDatabase db) to ensure that the second table gets created in case the database connection is already opened. Further, the TABLE_CREATE statement should include IF NOT EXIST in case the table already exists.
