I use OSX, thanks

Same problems here. Anyone got an idea? My terminal is just stopping dead completely at Started reverse TCP handler on -IP-.

Its not going back to msf exploit handler or anything. Its just stopping. I've reinstalled Kali a few times and completely updated it all but I'm getting zilch.

Seems to be a problem with latest version i have downgraded and works fine.
Have posted on thier forums for solution

Follow this video for the issue. This video show 2 method on how to solve the problem.
*RECOMMENDED follow the second method ( 2).

Try this :
Msfconsole
Use exploit/multi/handler
Set your payload
handler -p your payload -H your lhost -P your lport

My listener is sitting but it never seems to kick in. The payload doesn't seem to start when I launch the app on Android. both devices are on the same local network at home.

* Started reverse TCP handler on 0.0.0.0:4444

I'm facing the same issue
