Android Forensic Toolkit allows you to extract SMS records, call history, photos, browsing history, and password from an Android phone. It currently uses adb to pull the databases and photos from the phone and the rest of the processes are performed by python.
- Python 2.7
- pyexiv2
Nothing for now, but keep checking this space.

The databases extracted from the device will be present in the databases folder and can be viewed using SQLite Database Browser or SQLiteSpy (I personally prefer the SQLiteSpy as SQLite Database Browser hasn't been updated in a long time).
A detailed explanation on what each database contains will soon be available in the wiki.
Tested only on Android virtual machines, has support upto Android version 2.3.6. Please message me with the devices you have been able to get this working on.
- Python 2.7 comes with sqlite3 version 2.6.0 while Andriod 2.3.7 uses sqlite3 version 3.7.2, which causes it to return a "DatabaseError?: file is encrypted or is not a database" error. A workaround is to compile Python with the lastest version of SQLite Library. If anyone has suggestion, please feel free to log an issue with the solution.
- Start the adb server separately (use adb start-server) before you use the script. Added code to check and start it automatically before rest of the code is executed but it doesn't seem to work.
The ADB implementation is from Ryan Brady's python-adb code.
