it was reported by Umar b.al-Khattab(RA): the messenger of Allah(SWT) said:
when the Mu'adhdhin says:

(Reference Sahih Muslim 385)
Note: During the Fajr Adhan, when the Mu'azzin says 'assalatu khairum minannum' (the prayer is better than sleep), there are no significant words mention in the hadiths for the reply. So as the prophet said "Whenever you here the Adhan, say what the mu'adh-dhin is saying." (Sahih Al-Bukhari 611)
so reply the same 'assalatu khairum minannum' when the mu'azzin says it.
Dua After Adhan:
Amr Ibn Al-as narrates that he heard the prophet, Allah send peace and salutations upon him saying, ”When you hear the Muadhin (caller to prayer) then say as he says, then send salutations upon me (once the adhan is finished, as during the Adhan one is replying to the Adhan itself), as the one who asks Allah to send peace and salutations upon me, Allah sends mercy ten mercies upon him. Then ask Allah to grant me Al-wasilah, a place in Jannah, which is only befitting for one slave of Allah, and I hope that I am that one slave. Whoever asks Allah to grant me Al-Wasilah, (my) intercession (for him) becomes binding. (Muslim)
Narrated by Jabir bin 'Abdullah(RA): The Messenger of Allah(SWT) said:
"Whoever after listening to Adhan says,
اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ هَذِهِ الدَّعْوَةِ التَّامَّةِ وَالصَّلاَةِ الْقَائِمَةِ آتِ مُحَمَّدَانِ الْوَسِيلَةَ وَالْفَضِيلَةَ وَابْعَثْهُ مَقَامًا مَحْمُودَانِ الَّذِي وَعَدْتَهُ
"Allahumma Rabba Hadhihi-Dda' Watit-tammah, Was-Salati qa'imah, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wal-fadilah, wa b'ath-hu maqaman mahmudan-il-ladhi wa 'adtahu'
"O, Allah! Lord of this perfect call(perfect by not ascribing partners to you) and of the regular prayer which is going to be established, give Muhammad the right of intercession and illustriousness, and resurrect him to the best and the highest place in paradise that you promised him(of)"
then my intercession for him will be allowed on the day of resurrection."
(Reference: Sahil Al-Bukhari 614)
