Hello all, i'm still trying to understand the full potential pf android and
the hardware used in it.
I was wondering if it's possible to turn an Android phone into a fully
fledged penetration testing platform.
i'll try to elaborate a bit:
 -I know it's possible to use a cellphone jammer to jam the signal from
other phones, but is it possible to turn an android phone into a jammer or
even a "proxy" for cellphone signals, allowing in a sense the tampering and
sniffing of communications?

 -Is it possible to reverse the USB process when connected to a computer,
and make for ex adb work from phone to the computer. It's possible to
achieve something like this trough wifi, but i want a wired and faster
solution to allow a more practical approach.

-Also was wondering if its possible to turn an android phone into a web
server, no need to be a powerful one a scrap powered one would be fine.

-Was also wondering if its possible to install linux packaged applications
on android, ones that are not meant to be used on phone.



if these things are not possible with the standard hardware already in an
phone can also be using some extra hardware or out of the box techniques.


Any help/feddback or question is welcome ^^

Best regards
