Hello people. Good afternoon, how are you?

I’m new to this area, I just got to chapter 11 of the **Autopsy Basics 8 Hours** course, which deals with the module for analyzing _Android_ devices. I am very interested in this point and would like to know how I create an image from my Android device to analyze it in _Autopsy_. I did some research and found this:

Well, I found other links whose information is basically the same. The Android in question is a not-rooted Samsung Lollipop 5.1.1 without a memory card. That’s right, without an SD / MicroSD card. Would anyone have any suggestions on how I create an image to analyze it?

Thank you very much and I’m sorry for the silly question. ☹

My quote from other posts:

> Section 11’s video mentions ADB which is from the Android Developers Kit.  
> It has a backup command as well as a pull command, both of which allow you to get data from the device.
