Mobile devices suffer daily threats of various kinds, in particular in a digital form, where users without consent receives and installs malware on their mobile devices via wireless networks, getting their information vulnerable to unauthorized persons. Aiming to learn more targeted attacks on mobile devices, this paper presents a mechanism that emulates services and protocols within a mobile device with the Android OS. Our work is inspired by the idea of a Honeypot and its use is to learn from the invader. Thus, we first propose a Framework for mobile devises for reuse purposes. Then, we use the Framework itself to propose a honeypot that emulates services such as telnet, http and SMS in the application level of the Android operating system
