How to Hack Wi-Fi Using Android | How To Hack Any Wi-Fi in Android Phone And Mobile without using PC Laptop.

Do you want to test your network security? It used to be that you needed a desktop OS such as Windows or Linux installed on a computer with a specific wireless network card. Now, however, you can also use certain Android devices to scan and crack wireless networks. These tools are available for free as long as your device is compatible. Hacking routers without permission is illegal. These steps are provided to test the security of your own network.

 

 

Method 1  WEP Routers

Run bcmon. After installing the APK file, run the app. If prompted, install the firmware and tools. Tap the "Enable Monitor Mode" option. If the app crashes, open it and try again. If it fails for the third time, your device is most likely not supported. Your device must be rooted in order to run bcmon.

Note the MAC address that appears. This is the MAC address for the router. Make sure that you have the right one if there are multiple routers listed. Jot this MAC address down. Also note the Channel that the access point is broadcasting on.

Start scanning the channel. You will need to collect information from the access point for several hours before you can attempt to crack the password. Type airodump-ng -c channel# --bssid MAC address -w output ath0 and tap Enter. Airodump will begin scanning. You can leave the device for a while as it scans for information. Be sure to plug it in if you are running low on battery
  • Replace channel# with the channel number the access point is broadcasting on (e.g 6)
  • Replace MAC address with the MAC address of the router (e.g 00:0a:95:9d:68:16)
  • Keep scanning until you reach at least 20,000-30,000 packets.

Crack the password. Once you have a suitable number of packets, you can start attempting to crack the password. Return to the terminal and type aircrack-ng output*.cap and tap Enter.

Note the hexadecimal password when finished  After the cracking process is complete (which could take several hours), the message Key Found! Will appear, followed by the key in the hexadecimal form. Make sure that "Probability" is 100% or the key will not work.
  • When you enter the key, enter it without the For example, if the key was 12:34:56:78:90, you would enter 1234567890.

Launch Reaver. Tap the Re aver for Android icon in your App drawer. After confirming that you are not using it for illegal purposes, Re aver will scan for available access points. Tap the access point you want to crack to continue.

  • You may need to verify Monitor Mode before proceeding. If this is the case, bcmon will open again.
  • The access point you select must accept WPS authentication. Not all routers support this.
