Ah okay, that makes sense then. You want to see if you can connect and get data, not attempt to actually take over the other device. I don't know how hard either is, but taking over the device is much harder and invasive.
-
Whether this cannot done by any apps?

Really?
@Lakshmana are you trying to gain access to his file with him knowing that you are doing so? or are you trying to do penetration testing to see if you can access his files without his permission/knowledge?
-
Outside of my ken, I'm afraid, I just knew that we needed that clarification before moving forward. I don't have access to Android Mobile and have not attempted to do this before so am not sure how this would be done.
-
@Dashrender I am trying to access the file with the user permission only

This app claims to allow you to transfer files between android devices. Probably need to install it on both phones.

I'm not aware of BlueTooth exposing files by default. Not sure how that would work. As far as I know, files have to be shared out in some way. Actually, obviously that is true, what I don't know is if Android has some protocol for this that is around by default or only if certain apps are installed to expose more than the default.

Your original post says you want to hack a phone.
So while what you want to do is test this - do you want do actually do it completely in the open? Or are you really trying to hack into the other phone like a bad guy would to show what can happen to you?
-
@Dashrender My aim is to hack my neighbours phone with his knowledge only

I know older devices came with a file transferring app (remember the old bump software?). But I haven't seen (or tried to use it) for a long time. That's why I found this app in the Play Store.

@Dashrender It is file transfer app to transfer the files.I need to Pentest

I don't understand.
Bluesnarf looks like the go to application to try to penetrate someone's phone via bluetooth. But according to the Wiki page There are currently no known vulnerabilities that Bluesnarf can take advantage of without the owner of the device first specifically allowing a pairing between devices.
So it sounds like you need to do searches specifically on the phone your friend has, to see if there are any known bluetooth vulnerabilities that you can try to find software that will exploit that security flaw.
-
So Bluesnarf is the answer and the answer is... BT is secure. Plain and simple. Pentest complete, results are negative. Easy peasy.

@scottalanmiller Whether the bluesnarf works in Android phone ????

Doesn't it ONLY work there? Where else is there for it to work?

is Bluesnarf an Android app? I guess I missed that in the Wiki

It's a "thing", not really an app. But apps like that can only run on Android.

Oh, it's a hacking device.
I read a story a few years ago (think I even posted about it here) that the police were purchasing such devices that would hack a citizen's phone when the police officer walked up to a car/person/whatever and download everything it could.
-
I'd be shocked if they did anything other than that. Imagine everything that you worry that someone will do to you, that's likely what the cops are actively doing.
