Rayhunter is a new open source tool we’ve created that runs off an affordable mobile hotspot that we hope empowers everyone, regardless of technical skill, to help search out cell-site simulators (CSS) around the world.

      Maybe? The Orbic is fully Linux whereas Android is a locked down heavily modified version Linux with a lot of differences in the codebase.

      Androids only work as a WiFi hotspot. I could be wrong but I am not aware of any with cellular hotspot capability. You would need it running as a cellular hotspot for it to detect the stingrays.

        Ah, I missed that crucial part, apologies. I’m not very well versed with cellular standards: I would assume that Qualcomm is not very OpenSource friendly. Is there any other manufacturer they could use?

        There are no heavy Linux modifications in Android.
