Note down your gateway IP.
- Open any web browser and copy paste the gateway IP in web address bar and hit enter. It will ask for router login details; username and password. You can find out it’s username and password under your router. For most of the router’s it’s admin for username and password by default.
- As you login to router settings page, you’ll see all the router settings. Navigate to the Port Forwarding section. Click on Add a Port and enter port 1337 and save. Do it again for the port 1334. Usually for most of routers, Port Forwarding comes under Security tab, but it may vary from router to router.
- All set for now. Let’s build an APK server for the android. Extract and open the downloaded SpyNote. Run the application named as SpyNote.exe. As you open it, will prompt up for the port to listen. Enter 2222 port here and we’re in the SpyNote GUI.
- Next, navigate to the Tools tab and click on Build button.
- Once you click over the Build button, you just need to change your host name that you just created on noip.com website. Just change it and other settings you can change if you want to. And hit the Build button. And it’ll create APK server in the output folder.
- Once it’s done creation of APK, send it to victim through any medium. As the created APK gets installed, you’ll be able to see the client connection notification in Spynote.
- Bingoo..!!! You are into your target’s phone now. To perform any action on the remote device, Right click on the user that just appeared in the SpyNote window and play with a plenty of remote options.
