Android Evidence
What we examine across the Android ecosystem
Android fragmentation — many manufacturers, OS versions, and security models — makes acquisition and interpretation highly device-specific.
Acquisition method
Logical, file system, and physical extraction distinctions across device models.
Device state
Locked, encrypted, rooted, or modified — and the impact on what was obtainable.
Messaging databases
SMS/MMS and app chat stores (WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and others).
Google account & sync
Distinguishing on-device data from synchronized Google cloud content.
Location History
Google Location History and app logs — precision, accuracy, and meaning.
App artifacts
SQLite databases, shared preferences, and caches across third-party apps.
Backups
Local and cloud backups as independent evidentiary sources.
Timestamps
Time-zone normalization across Android sources and reports.
Manufacturer variation
How OEM software changes where artifacts live and how they behave.
Interpretation
Device and version context is decisive
What an artifact means on one Android device may not hold on another. Reliable opinions account for the specific manufacturer, OS version, and security model — and state the resulting limits.
