 Imagine that this is a forensic investigation and you want to find
 possible incriminating evidence. This is the scenario I have to work with.
 So far the only evidence I have managed to find is the file in which the
 WiFi passwords are stored. And that is not located in the home directory.
 
 Could you please be a bit more specific with your answer?

Look a little deeper, including into hidden directories. For example:

You could start doing this, for example:

find / -writable -ls

this will print out a list of every user-writable file on the device.

 All such data is stored underneath the home directory (~/phablet). Most
 of the data is stored in XDG directories, for which the environment
 variables are modified for each confined application, so that data is
 not accessible by other applications.

 Dear Developing Team,

 My name is Alex Stavroulakis and I am working on an class project
 performing forensics on the new Ubuntu Phone (BQ Aquaris E4.5). The
 device
 has turned out a bit problematic and due to time restraints I am
 emailing
 you for some assistance.

 My task is to find where User Data is stored on the device. By that, I
 mean Call information, SMS logs of conversation, Emails (if such are
 stored on the device), maybe even Telegram secret chat conversations
 etc.
 I am mainly interested in which directories of the filesystem some of
 this
 information is saved and if it can be accessed in a forensically sound
 manner.

 I hope you can help me. Thank you in advance and I am looking forward to
 your answer.

 Sincerely,

 Alex Stavroulakis

Thank you! This was very helpful! I was also able to find email and
facebook information. But I still can't find something on Phone Call
History. Would you happen to know where this information is stored?

Thank you for the answer, it sure provides a lot of info that I need to
filter.

 find / -writable -ls

 this will print out a list of every user-writable file on the device.

Alex Stavroulakis said he's working on a class project. So we're
trying to give him pointers so he can find the information he needs,
without actually doing his homework for him. Your quite comprehensive
description of the phone's filesystem is probably as far as we can go.
