I was under the impression that 'adb shell' just gives access to the phone shell. But I just noticed that results of commands run via adb shell or locally on the phone (I an using this terminal if it matters https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm) differ in a way that cannot be explained just by using a different account e.g. 'uname -m' reports armv8l on the phone but aarch64 in adb shell or 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' shows
in adb shell (only the first core) but
locally - more features, extra 'model name' line. So what gives?
