AFAIK, yes.
If the device was shipped with Android at some point, you can bet it is.

To clarify the answer from Lionel, the android based ports can use ADB. This is not the case for the PinePhone.

@keneda I ran it in terminal also with one less history.sqlite. same result

Are you running it from your PC ? ( your device must be connected through usb cable, and developer mode enabled to access it from adb)

Try adb pull /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite

As i said, too much "history.sqlite" in the command you quoted (misstaping from @lduboeuf ^^)

By the way do you know how to use adb ?

In your first command there is too much "history.sqlite" ^^

backup the history database

adb pull /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite

restore:

adb push history.sqlite /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite

reboot your device

Note that i'm not sure if the database is 100% fine when switching to another device, as you can have some account id change
