The following assumes you have a rooted device, ADB configured, sqlite database knowledge, and basic command line skills. If you don't know what any of those mean or are uncertain about something, turn back now. Not promising this will work for everyone. Just sharing what worked for me.
Connect via ADB & run commands:
bashsu
cp /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/phenotype.db /sdcard/phenotype_m2.db
cp /data/data/com.google.android.apps.messaging/shared_prefs/PhenotypePrefs.xml /sdcard/PhenotypePrefs_m2.xml
exit
exit
Terminal
bashadb pull /sdcard/phenotype_m2.db
adb pull /sdcard/PehnotypePrefs_m2.xml
