This is the current Development Status of our Android IMSI-Catcher Detector.
- Development Roadmap with ALPHA & BETA stage as well as GOLDEN age.
Views (short explanation of the main views):
- Main Screen: Information about Device, Network and SIM-Card
- Cell Information: Relevant variables using public AOS API calls (LAC, CID, Signal Strength)
- Database Viewer: Data collected by the phone and from public DB of Cell Towers
- Map Viewer: Shows Cell-Towers from the public database that are in your area
Functions:
- Cell-Monitoring: Collects information about the cell towers you are/were connected to and saves it in the local database
- Cell Tracking: Tracks your position while you are connected to the cell-tower and saves it with cell data in the local database
- Download data from public cell-tower database (right now only from OpenCellID)
- Position Tracking: Using the GPS-Sensor and Google Location Service
Detection:
- Check Cell-ID’s collected by the phone against public Cell-Tower Database.
- Check for "Changing LAC" of each Cell-ID that is collected by by the phone.
- Neighboring Cell Info: #100
- AT-Command Processor: Send AT-Commands to the Baseband Processor #23
- Detection of Silent SMS (Type-0): #69
- Specifications of code modularization (for development clarity)
- Restructuring of DB to allow for more Network variables (for development clarity)
- Separate Debugging menu with much better way to create useable logcats: #164
- Detection of changing Signal Strength: Besides implementation, this needs lot’s of research and testing, if this is a possible way for detection and how it works on different phones (measurement of signal strength) (more details)
- Check BTS for the NC List #264
- Switch from Google Location Service (Google Play Service) to another API
- Implement the use of other public Cell-Tower Databases API‘s
- We are preparing further working packages of this Detection List As soon as they are ready, we will add them to this list.
