Ultimately, you need to have the SQLCipher open instance inside of a
Service, not an Activity, so it stays open. Then you can close/lock it
as the user requires, or based on a timeout.
Otherwise, for less paranoid options, you can temporarily persists the
users passphrase in the Activity memory and use it to transparently
re-open the database onResume, etc.
