My Pixel 2 is stuck in the boot loop. I will send it for a replacement but I would like to recover some files that weren't backed up in the cloud.
I can see the phone using adb devices and I was hoping to use the abd pull command but I can't due to permissions. I am using a Mac and my phone is not rooted.
adb shell ls -lah

Is it possible to pull all files from the phone or mount it on my Mac? I'm only interested in the pictures really.
