device checklist
Use observable device facts, not assumptions
Available storage, update state, architecture and permissions are separate facts. Record what the phone shows and leave undocumented requirements unknown.

What to check on this route
On this device checks page, treat storage, system state and permissions as separate evidence checks. Compare their results before deciding what the next action should be.
Storage
Use Android storage tools instead of relying on a claimed file size.
System state
Apply normal security updates and keep protections enabled.
Permissions
Review camera, contacts, location and notification access individually.
