AndroRat
AndroRat is a free and open source remote administration tool designed for Android. This tool allows the attacker to control a wide variety of features within the infected smartphone. Some of the AndroRat's innovative features include the ability to make phone calls, send messages from the infected phone, access the GPS coordinated of the phone, activate the microphone, access stored data and much more.

AndroRat APK Binder
AndroRat APK Binder is a malware tool that allows you to bind AndroRat directly to an app. The APK Binder is currently being sold at about $37 through various underground forums. The tool AndroRat is available in the APK format and when combined with the APK builder will allow any user with minimum expertise to infect a legitimate app and trojanize it. When a user installs the trojanized app, they also install AndroRat unknowingly. The attacker can now access the infected phone remotely and use it for their benefit.

Adwind
On similar lines as the AndroRat, a Java based RAT that has been named as Adwind is also making rounds on the Internet. This tool can be used in multiple OSes as it is a Java based tool. This tool too can assume control of an infected device remotely. However, it is not yet known if the tool has been bound to any of the legitimate APKs.
