Security analysts use emulators to detonate older Android malware strains within an isolated sandbox that perfectly mimics the vulnerable targets of that era.
It is not possible to simply take a Samsung stock ROM (firmware) and run it directly on a standard Android emulator. Device ROMs contain drivers for very specific hardware, which the generic emulator does not support. While projects like SamsEmung attempt to solve this problem, they are not yet mainstream.
It allows developers to test app layouts, performance, and API compatibility ( KitKat) without owning the physical hardware.
