what are the best Android tools? I have dSploit, which seems to be the most popular one, what else is there?

The Android SDK is a pretty great Android hacking tool. If you're just looking for tools you can run on your phone, pretty much anything that's been ported to ARM devices. Nmap works on Android, as does Metasploit (sorta). Last I checked Nessus had an app out there that would let you connect to a Nessus server. WifiFoFum is ridiculously useful for wardriving, but I don't know if it's around anymore. Also +1 for virtual or chrooted Linux as u/yeahyoushookme said. Since the Nexus 5 is a fairly powerful phone, I'd wager you could run the ARM version of Kali or Backtrack as a VM inside Android, as crazy as that sounds.

Wow, didn't know you could run VM's on Android, that's amazing! Can't believe how much better I thought iPhones were, iOS literally has nothing on Android. I'll have a look into them, thank you!

Actually, iOS has a lot on Android, but I'm not going to start a shitstorm.

Running Backtrack in chroot is pretty much it.

What is chroot? Is it a VM, or dual booting or built in to Android? Can you use Kali too?

Since there's already a Linux kernel running under Android, you don't need to virtualize hardware to run the GNU userspace. You have to setup a root file system hierarchy (/bin, /lib, /usr, /etc and so on), mount the /dev, /proc, /sys directories, and change the rootfs path with chroot. Programs that are run from this environment will see a usual GNU/Linux system, and you can even use hardware directly, like a USB Wifi or ethernet dongle if your mobile can be USB Host. There are apps that automate most of the process. They usually write into an image file of an ext4 fs, and loop mount that somewhere within /data, and mount the system directories as well. Try Linux Deploy for example. If you run Cyanogenmod, you should use ssh instead of chroot-ing your terminal, because the current su binary trashes the tty and renders it unusable.

It appears that Piik has been abandoned by the way.

What are you trying to do? Or do you just want 'hacking tools?'

Nothing in particular, just wanted to see what I could get on Android. I've only just moved over from iOS, and with root it seems like you can do a LOT!
