Before we move on with the discussion on any particular topic, it is mandatory for us to be aware of the basics or the terminologies used in that topic. Similar to this, before we know how to hack android phones, it is mandatory for us to know what is meant by the word hack, and we also need to know what is meant by the term hacking too.
So, the word hack carries the following meaning –
“gain unauthorized access to data in a system or computer” – By dictionary meaning.
Putting it simply, the word hack means to gain unauthorized access.
Now, the term hacking carries the meaning –
“Hacking can be defined as the process by which an unauthorized access in made into someone else’s system, that is, without his or her consent” – By definition.
Therefore, the term hacking is a process by which a person can gain unauthorized access to a system, a computer, or even a phone.
So, we hope that the term hacking and hack is clear to all the readers. Now we shall see who is termed as hackers.
Hackers are those individuals, who have the knowledge of hacking into a system, and they mainly hack into that system with or without consent. Now, you must be thinking that why are we mentioning ‘with consent.’ This will be understood when we see the types of hackers.

Basically, we have 3 types of hackers based on their purpose of hacking; they are:
- White Hat Hackers – These are the security officers who are hired by different companies, mainly to check their software or systems for existing vulnerabilities. White Hat Hackers hack into a system with permissions and try to find vulnerabilities, report it to the company so that the company can patch those vulnerabilities before anyone exploits them.
- Black Hat Hackers – These are basically the bad guys. They use their hacking knowledge to hack into the systems with the intent to cause damage to the company or people or with the motive of stealing money. Black Hat Hackers also find the vulnerabilities, but by gaining unauthorized access. Also, they exploit these vulnerabilities to defame the company.
- Grey Hat Hackers – These are the individuals in between the white hat hackers and the grey hat hackers. They also use their knowledge to find vulnerabilities in systems; however, they may or may not exploit those vulnerabilities. That means at times, the grey hat hackers act as white hats and report vulnerabilities to the company and, at times, as black hats, that is, exploit vulnerabilities.
Now we hope that you all understood why we mentioned ‘with consent’ in the previous sub-topic. Let us now see the 2 different types of hacking.
Types of Hacking
There are two types of hacking, they are :
- Ethical Hacking – The type of hacking that is done with consent for the company to patch their vulnerabilities is termed as ethical hacking.
- Unethical Hacking – The type of hacking that is carried out without consent in order to bring harm to a company is termed as unethical hacking.
Hacking – Good or Bad?
After going through all the basic terminologies, you must be wondering if hacking is good or bad. Well, let us understand it. Hacking is considered to be a crime when a hacker gains unauthorized access to a system or computer.
However, hacking with consent, that is, after having permission from the owner of the system or computer, hacking is not a crime.
For this reason, whenever a security official is hired by a company to hack into their system, he or she has to sign several agreements. These agreements act as proof showing that the company has allowed the official to hack, and hence it is no more a crime.
But suppose you are browsing your college website and suddenly you thought of finding vulnerabilities in the website and report it to the college for fame. But you do not take permission from the college and hack the website. Then you will be held liable for punishment. Why? Because although your intentions were good, you did wrong by hacking without proper agreements. Here, hacking becomes a crime.
As a matter of fact, we again warn our readers not to hack android phones by the process mentioned in the article if you do not have the proper agreement with the owner of the phone. If you fail to follow this request, your hack will be considered a cybercrime as per Laws.
Now let us finally see how to hack android phones.
