Answer 1

If you are using SQLite correctly you should be able to do a "order by id" when you query up the DB.

If thats not the case then what I would do is build out your data into a collection.

Have your generic object implement the comparable interface.

like so http://www.java-tips.org/java-se-tips/java.lang/how-to-use-comparable-interface.html

When you call Collections.sort(contentfromtheprovider); It will sort based on the ID like you wish to do.

just format your query, here's the page that helped me.
