database - How to Open/Close SQLite db in Android Properly

I have an app that functions properly and does not force close or crash. But when I look at LogCat, it occasionally gives me this:

05-20 15:24:55.338: E/SQLiteDatabase(12707): close() was never explicitly called on database '/data/data/com.---.--/databases/debt.db' 
05-20 15:24:55.338: E/SQLiteDatabase(12707): android.database.sqlite.DatabaseObjectNotClosedException: Application did not close the cursor or database object that was opened here

a little ways down...

05-20 15:24:55.338: E/System(12707): Uncaught exception thrown by finalizer
05-20 15:24:55.338: E/System(12707): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Don't have database lock!

I am not sure when I should be opening and closing my Database?

I have a Main activity that is simply a splash screen. It then goes into an activity that calls a ListView using info from the DB; so it is at this activity where the DB is first opened.

There is also one other Activity where the DB is required that branches off the one with the ListVeew. When am I supposed to be opening and closing this? Word seems to be that I simply need to open once, and then close when the app is "paused", "stopped" or "destroyed".

If this is the case, where do I put the db.close() method... in the Splash Screen Main Activity where onStop, etc is located? or the same Activity as the one that opens the DB? or.. is there another place?

UPDATE:

This is the line in code that the error keeps pointing to:

public void open() throws SQLException {
    database = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
}

If you're using an instance of a DatabaseHelper class, and after you initialize the DBHelper object, every time you do work in the database you should call the open method before you do work, then create a new cursor, query the database, do work with the information you just stored in the cursor, when you're done close the cursor, then close the database. For example if you wanted to grab every item in a database you would do something like :

...    
DataBaseHelper db = new DataBaseHelper(this);
... 
db.open();
Cursor cursor = db.getAllItems(); 
maxCount = cursor.getCount(); 
Random gen = new Random();
row = gen.nextInt(maxCount); // Generate random between 0 and max
if (cursor.moveToPosition(row)) {
    String myString = cursor.getString(1);  //here I want the second column
    displayString(myString); //private method
}
cursor.close();
db.close(); 

getAllItems is a public method in my DatabaseHelper, it looks like this in case you were wondering

public Cursor getAllItems() {
    return db.query(DATABASE_TABLE, 
        new String[] {
            KEY_ROWID, 
            KEY_NAME
        }, 
        null, 
        null, 
        null, 
        null, 
        null);
}

This is how I access my database and I haven't gotten any of the errors you've got, and it works perfectly.
