[KERNEL] Kali NetHunter for the Galaxy S7 Edge WORKING

ALL CORES WORKING FULLY WORKING 3 g935 KERNELS TO CHOOSE FROM LOOK BELOW
THAT THIS IS FULLY WORKING AND UPDATED TO NETHUNTER 3.1.0
ZIP MODDED FOR S7 EDGE FOR 1440X2560 WITH NEWEST BUSYBOX AND SUPERSU
WARNING: This is completely untested, highly theoretical, and possibly dangerous. Flash at your own risk.
Back up your original boot image in TWRP before attempting to flash this! If it doesn't boot, you can simply restore your previous boot image.
This is Kali NetHunter 3.1.0 for the Galaxy S7 Edge.
If you don't know what Kali NetHunter is, well, it's the entire Kali Linux operating system in a chroot on your phone, plus a bunch of awesome apps for executing exploits, fixing things, doing cool things. It goes on, I suppose.
I'm gonna be honest guys, I'm not a security person. When it comes to security, I'm more of a Paul Blart.
What I do know though, is that there is apt-get, and apt-get is life.
Find much more information here: https://github.com/offensive-securit...nethunter/wiki
The answer to all your questions, generally the answer is YES, IT CAN DO THAT.
Most ROMs should be supported, as our installer uses a dynamic patching method on your current boot image!
The updater zip will add a few files to your /system partition, and install all of the NetHunter apps to your /data partition.
The chroot is located in /data/local, so you don't have to worry about your system partition being full. It's full read/write capable.
Understand that the zip will replace your current kernel with a completely different one.
This is necessary because most stock or custom kernels don't provide the drivers needed to operate most of Kali NetHunter's features.
DOWNLOAD
https://mega.nz/#!3QIHzQ5b!x77Wad9OUAyQqAtJJucak3C_3twfFFwZqJ77Wt1j6-c
Current version: 3.1.0 (beta, 07/03/2016)
Please be careful to download the right version based on this table:
SM-G935F, SM-G935FD, SM-G935X, SM-G935W8: hero2lte
SM-G930F, SM-G930FD, SM-G930X, SM-G930W8: See proper forum.
All others be sad.
Download is available at: kernel below
Grab the 700 MB+ zip.
Kernel-only zip is for upgrading your kernel, or just using the NetHunter kernel by itself. (yes, you can do that!)
BEFORE INSTALLING
Currently, Samsung encryption is not supported by TWRP, so we have to disable it.
Sorry security freaks! There's a lot of irony here, isn't there?
The Kali chroot and apps are installed on your data partition (in /data/local for chroot). To initialize the chroot and install Kali Linux, you need to start the Kali NetHunter app.
The NetHunter installer will automatically install SuperSU (2.76) in system mode, which I consider to be more stable. Since NetHunter already modifies your system partition, there is no need to use systemless SuperSU anyways.
Also included is an extra Busybox that gives you full large file support and some extra applets.
FULL FRESH INSTALL STEPS
Install Team Win Recovery Project to your recovery partition.
If your data partition doesn't mount in TWRP:
Go to [Wipe] -> [Format Data] (not advanced wipe) -> type "yes".
WARNING: This will wipe your internal storage, disable encryption, and factory reset your phone!
Once your data partition is formatted, go to [Reboot] -> [Recovery].
Download dm-verity and force encryption disabler.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
If you wiped your data partition in step 2:
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Set up your phone by following the Android setup wizard.
Once it's set up, reboot back into recovery.
Download Kali NetHunter.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the NetHunter installer zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Wait 5-15 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.
Open the NetHunter app to initialize the environment
You're done!
* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.
UPDATING TO A NEWER BUILD
Going from 3.0.0 and up, all you have to do is flash the new build in recovery and wipe dalvik cache.
UPDATING YOUR ROM
To get all your NetHunter and SuperSU functions back after flashing a new ROM, just flash the ~700+ MB update-nethunter-* zip again.
THE KERNEL
The NetHunter kernel for the Galaxy S7 Edge is based on Samsung's OSRC G935FXXU1APF2 kernel sources.
It has the following changes:
F2FS updated to Jaeguek Kim's latest kernel.org f2fs-stable sources
F2FS formatted system, data, and cache partition support
UKSM Ultra Kernel Same-page Merging KSM support
Updated and enabled USB (OTG) Atheros, Ralink, and Realtek WiFi drivers
Simple IO (SIO) scheduler as default IO scheduler
USB HID Gadget keyboard support
mac80211 packet injection support
DriveDroid compatibility
Additional drivers built in for the full Kali NetHunter experience
Data partition encryption changed from forced to optional (disabled during installation)
Disables dm-verity and allows you to boot modified system partitions
RAN INTO AN ISSUE OR BUG?
In order for me to help you, you have to at minimum reply with:
The link to the exact zip you downloaded
Your device model (it better not be something other than G935F, dangit!)
The name of the ROM you're flashing it on
The version and build date of the ROM you're flashing it on
A complete description of your problem
Optional: An audio recording of you reading this entire post
If your issue is with a specific app, it might be better to contact the developer of that app.
If your issue is during the installation (ex. flashing the NetHunter zip), then please collect a TWRP recovery.log for me.
If you found a problem and were able to fix it, and no one's mentioned it in the thread already, it would be kind to state the issue and your fix for others to make use of as well.
You can join me and the other NetHunter developers on IRC at the #nethunter room on freenode to more handily diagnose problems together.
I apologize, but I can't do house calls at this time.
KNOWN ISSUES
USB Keyboard - The keyboard is unusable when using Google Keyboard as your input method. Switch to Hacker's Keyboard.
NetHunter Terminal - It doesn't automatically set the columns/rows, so you need to type "resize" sometimes to fix the display.

So I'm good to just flash this with TWRP over the current one I'm using?
CPU core 6 and 7 still stopped as with previously used kernel.
Kali still working, everything seems the same so far. Will see with time.

ya i cant seem to get them to work as i dont know , this is compiled from a old source , me and a other are trying to fix it no , BUT this is way faster then ael kernel , and im no way a professional kernel dev so this is my first shot at kernel i compiled my self which was a pain

Are you using that AEL kernel as a base or the stock kernel?
Since the stock kernel or even Jesse kernel have all cpus active maybe use those and add support for the USB wifi adapters.
I'm also working on this with stock kernel but fixing compiling errors.

Just post when there is a new one to test, the current one seems stable other then the 6 core problem.

Fixed the cores being off line they all come online at boot , but now facing maybe CPUFreq driver initialization failed ?? Which causes now all cores to go offline and stay off after a few seconds . And makes kernel unusable

I thought the unusable kernel term would explain that , its not good for upload if you want to join group on telegram you can test if you want

good news jcadduono back working on this again , he first trying to fix his patcher zip , i told him how i got mine working but its different then what he doing , so once he gets that fix we see if its a issuse with original Samsung source or nethunter patches the core issues

The best way to use terminal in this since Hacker keyboard has so much **** on it you can't type properly.
1. Open Nethunter, Menu, Kali services, add check mark to SSH start at boot, and check it to turn on.
2. Go into Kali terminal(last time you'll need to use this crap) type; passwd "whateveryouwant", this will be used for your user in the next step.
3. Download Juice SSH and add user root with password what ever you made.
4. Create a connection using IP 127.0.0.1 (this is the local loopback address) leave port blank, it will use 22 by default.
5. Connect with one click and enjoy using any keyboard with bonus juice addon keys for terminal use.
JuiceSSH also give you a nifty little extra keyboard ontop of the one you use with the tab function, making bash autofill work.
I use swiftkey keyboard and have been using JuiceSSH for years to access my CentOS 7 servers and its been a dream to work with.
The one packaged with Nethunter is just terrible, and most of the other one found on app store are terrible as well.
Also, Ohap, you don't have to reboot after formatting the /data, just go back and clear the dalvik, cashe, etc, and other stuff like the guide I posted in your other thread.
Feel free to use the one I posted in the last thread.
Great work so far. The last kernel is still going strong, with no random reboot or other problem other the the 2 cores we all know about.

This was a poorly edited post for newbies , i know hacker keyboard sucks , and you dont have to wipe ect .. thanks for support & feedback

awsome update coming i have fixed the core issue !!! with the power of superkernel "luca" source ,plus nethunter patches, and a make shift ramdisk !!!! i got it to boot and all cores online plus all the goodys of superkernel !!
Now Need to just include patch for hid keyboards now I do that latter

Hacker's Keyboard is there for use with USB keyboard app and editing configs and stuff in the NetHunter app.
As for terminal in NetHunter...
As you said, I recommend JuiceSSH as well. You can create a Local Terminal profile to get into Android console, then type:
Code:
su -c bootkali_login
You can also purchase JuiceSSH premium features and create a snippet that does all of that for you!
This way, you don't need to use SSH and waste battery!

New kernel out built from superkernel check it out . Recommend the super ramdisk ver I posted

Yes I saw. I'm using it already. I like seeing the 8 cores back. Time will tell how stable it is. Good work guys.

is it work with superman rom?
please tell me how to flash

How to flash is in first post . It should work with any rom with system root not systemless

Anyone having issues with call forwarding? Since I flashed King rom my call forwarding has been messed up, even going back to stock. Not sure if it's cuz of root, rom, or kernels.
Still running stable btw.

[TESTING] libhoudini for Android N ROMs (7.1.0a_y.49344 / 8.0.0_y.49374)

NOTE: This is only for Nougat (7.1) custom ROMs (such as Lineage 14.1 based)!
Make sure you do a proper nandroid backup before flashing!
I made a flashable zip for updating the libhoudini stuffs for Nougat (7.1) ROMs to 7.1.0a_y.49344. Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere before, though.
Before flashing, check your current libhoudini version by typing "houdini --version" either from adb shell or from terminal emulator. (UPDATE: Use the built-in Terminal as it doesn't work in Termux)
You should only try to flash this if your houdini version is below 7.1.0a_y.49344. Current custom ROMs usually have a houdini version of 7.1.0_y.48901 (DotOS 1.2 for example).
Flashable zip (It's about 34MB in size) (Dropbox link here)
The original source is from here, apparently taken from Nexus Player (fugu).
After flashing, "houdini --version" should report something like this:
Code:
[14902]
[14902] Houdini version: 7.1.0a_y.49344
[14902]
TESTING NEEDED: I'm not sure what this version of houdini might fix or break, so try this at your own risk. If you're currently not having problems with apps then there's no need to flash this. Compared with existing device files (7.1.0_y.48901, in /system/lib/arm/), several library files are changed, plus an additional "libgate.so" which I could identify it as being an ARM library file (so it'll also be placed in /system/lib/arm, although I'm not sure where it might be used).
EXPERIMENTAL (UNTESTED!): Here's another version in case someone might be interested. This build is 8.0.0_y.49374, and the version number literally means it's to be used for Oreo, so I'm not sure if it'll work on a 7.x ROM. The original source of this version is from Android-x86.
Flashable zip (Dropbox link here)
If the zip works, it should report the following version:
Code:
[19729]
[19729] Houdini version: 8.0.0_y.49374
[19729]

What is the use for this ?

It's just to put updated libhoudini libraries into the device, in hope that those updated stuffs might help with fixing some native libhoudini crashes on certain problematic ARM-only apps.
I had some ARM-only apps that always FC with native crashes (SIGSEGV) from libhoudini on Zenfone 2. Although the updated binaries unfortunately could not fix the problems entirely, at least the they work as intended as I haven't discovered anything broken by the updated stuffs yet.
However, this won't help if your app crash is due to the developer shipping an incomplete set of x86 native binaries (this can happen). You need to sideload it through adb and force it to use ARM abi, like this:
Code:
adb install --abi armeabi xxx.apk
Note that the abi name varies among apps, armeabi is just an example, it might be arm, or armeabi-v7a, depending on the app itself.
EDIT: Say, is there a way to report device incompatibilities to Play Store so I can explain the device's situation and let Play Store always ship the last known good version for our device? There seem to be some apps that previously worked, but not now due to updated native libraries that would cause native crashes on libhoudini (Play Store will still treat our device as compatible due to the device exposing the ARM abis thanks to libhoudini), and I often need to disable the app in question's auto-update to prevent Play Store updating it to the native-crashing version.

Are you using Termux? It seems I'm getting the same result there as well, but houdini outputs just fine in the built-in Terminal as well as in the T-UI launcher.
And as for file lists:
In /system/bin there's the "houdini" binary.
Then there's "libhoudini.so" in /system/lib/ (this is the main library which is of i386 architecture).
And the rest of the files (ARM libraries) in /system/lib/arm/. These consist of the exact same set of files as the ones provided by the custom ROMs, plus an additional one (libgate.so).

I am not sure what is meant by "the built-in Terminal" (I don't recall any ROM coming with one?) but I did use Termux as well as the terminal in TWRP. I figured out if you type "su" to get root access first, then the command works fine in Termux.
Flashed the .zip file. So far, I haven't noticed any changes, good or bad. I don't remember which apps would FC (maybe the Amazon Echo app and Disney Infinity 3.0?) but I'll keep you posted.

Some ROMs do have built-in terminal app. However, you need to enable it, which can be done in Settings -> Developer Options (assuming you know how to enable Developer Options as well). There would be an option to enable "Local terminal" which is the built-in terminal app.

libhoudini is Intel's ARM binary translator that helps x86 devices run ARM apps, albeit with some limitations and performance reduction due to overhead. Without it, most apps won't be able to work at all, as they don't have x86 native libraries.
Zenfone 2 already has houdini included, that's why it could run as many apps as any other devices. The flashable zip here contains updated files (for 7.1 ROMs) in hope it could help with some problematic ARM-only apps that refuse to work with libhoudini, though in most cases the differences are barely noticeable.

something's wrong I can not download it. I need another link. thank you

My device is running Groovy Android 7.1.1, 18 May Build.
so i have successfully upgraded houdini version using your flashable file. Thank You for your work.

what if i want to revert to the houdini version that comes preinstalled with the rom, will dirty flash rom zip work?

The zip is meant to be flashed every time you reflash the ROM, so yes, dirty flashing should be able to revert it.
But again... you're supposed to do a nandroid backup before flashing, and there's no need to flash this if you aren't encountering any native code crashes from arm-only apps at the moment.
Unfortunately, as Intel had already left the mobile market and no more Intel-powered smartphones produced anymore, some developers started to "move on" and use libraries or compiler options incompatible with houdini in order to make their apps run more efficient on modern ARM smartphones, without having to be "constrained" for compatibility reasons...
The houdini binaries I found only seems to be a minor update, and I'm not sure if Intel is still working on this or if there are possibilities to obtain an even newer houdini version with "y" suffix, which our phone uses.

Added an experimental (UNTESTED!) version found from Android-x86 (8.0.0_y.49374). This version was originally meant for Oreo, so I'm not sure if this would work on a Nougat ROM.
Currently on Android-x86 only the "y" version (which our devices use) is available. The other versions ("x" and "z") are not present, and the link would simply give you a "not found" error.
Although I don't mainly use the phone anymore, I could still conduct some tests with the device if I have time.

Bit the bullet and tested the 8.0.0_y.49374 build. Does not work. Evie force crashes right off the bat. Haven't tested further than this, but if I cannot even use my launcher of choice, that isn't a good sign.

[ROM][Pie] Unofficial LineageOS 16.0

This is an unofficial build of LineageOS 16.0 for the Motorola razr I, (XT890/SMI).
Lots of thanks to Hazou. This rom is based on his los-14 rom and I got help from him with los-16.
This rom has full hardware support and should run stable. It has been tested by me in daily use. I'm using the rom without google apps, but with microg. Installing google apps requires some apps to move to data partition because of limited system size. See install description for more info.
Special Features
-All features of Hazous 14.1 rom
-MicroG signature spoofing patch is included.
-Adaptive icons can be disabled in homescreen settings.
I can include more features if requested
Known Bugs
-The camera preview image sometimes shakes at random

Update
If you already run an earlier version of this rom, just boot to twrp and install the latest flashable zip file
Install
1. Backup everything you don't want to loose.
2. Download and install TWRP 3.2.3 (download in attachments. Can be flashed with fastboot or with another recovery)
3. If you come from another rom do a full wipe with twrp
4. Download and install the rom flashable zip (download from mega.nz link is in section download)
5. If you want to install opengapps or need system partition space for other things. Install the move_to_data.zip file from the attachments. This will move the Webview and the LatinIME app to data partition.
6. Choose one of the following options:
-either install google apps (download form https://opengapps.org/. Choose x86 9.0 nano or pico)
-or install MicroG (can be installed with the unofficial installer https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/microg-unofficial-installer-t3432360) this is lighter in ram and cpu usage but you will get problems with google chrome and other apps
7. If you want root access install the addonsu-16.0-x86.zip (download in the attachments)
8. Reboot the phone. First reboot will take some time

DATA Encryption
If you want to enable data encryption this would break the pds partition backup. To prevent this, the cache partition can be used as backup location:
-edit /system/bin/pdsbackup.sh
-change PDS_FILE=/data/misc/pds/pdsdata.img to PDS_FILE=/cache/misc/pds/pdsdata.img
-resize data partition in TWRP:
Code:
umount /data
umount /sdcard
e2fsck -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
resize2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 1367079
-reboot the phone

This if I did not expect it, I'll try to see how it goes. Thank you.

Download links and install description are up now. Download from mega.nz because xda download section is broken at the moment. I'm waiting for your test reports

It's really great works, thank you!!
I quickly tried and found several points.
- USB connection with PC
All USB connection option including File Transfer, USB tethering, PTP are grayed out.
Disabling/Enabling android debug in setting didn't work.
- Wifi with storage encryption
When you enable storage encryption, WiFi always become disabled, not be able to enable.
Just FYI, it required deleting /system/bin/pdsbackup.sh AND reducing partition size of 'data' (/dev/block/mmcblk0p17).
- SElinux
Although it is designated as permissive in device.mk, it's actually worked as "disabled".
I'm not sure it's related or not, however, when building "user build", it's failed with "ERROR: permissive domains not allowed in user builds".
I know "user build" is not officially supported in Lineage release, however, it's really helpful if we can do it for AFW usage.
Previously I could use Lineage 14.1 smi build for AFW and safetynet app with user build.
BTW, performance is really great, seems to be almost same as Lineage 11.

I also noticed that. Will see how this can be fixed. It is just a problem with the option dialog. Usb connection works fine. As a workaround you can set a default USB configuration in developer options

I think lineage trust doesn't differentiate between permissive and disabled. Selinux support is planned for future releases

Thank you for quick check.
Regarding USB connection, I also confirmed that Ubuntu can recognize as external storage with above option, besides Windows still does not recognize. Maybe depending on my environment.
Also I noticed that Chrome, Chrome Beta and Chrome Canary (therefore another Chrome based apps such as Maps Go) always crash. This is also maybe my environment only, though. BTW, I could install MicroG, besides couldn't install OpenGapps 9.0 pico due to partition size limit.
Additionally, I couldn't find any LED settings, currently LED is always off during charge or any notification.

Notification Led should work. Can be configured under settings->apps and notifications->notifications->notification light. I don't know what happened with the battery light. It will hopefully come back if I upgrade the driver to hidl.
Google Chrome is a known problem with MicroG. It requires official gapps. I will check if some of the unprivileged lineage apps can be moved to data partition to make place for google apps

Newbie question
Hi all, I know someone who's selling her old RAZR i XT890 and I'm interested (for experimental reasons but also the oddity that it's Intel powered). I've never owned a RAZR i so I've got some questions:
-The phone is from 2012 so quite old and has 1GB RAM, does it work well with this Lineage 16? Because usually newer software would perform bad on older SoC (I used to have iOS 7 on iPhone 4 back in the day and it was painfully slow compared to 6).
-On Lineage 16, can it run any Android app as a standard new Android Pie phone? I ask because this is an Intel x86 CPU, so can it still run Android apps as normal or are most of them only designed for ARM and therefore unusable?
If I get the good news, I may buy the phone and try this Lineage OS custom ROM.

Regarding LED, maybe it became working after modifying some option of notification light. Battery connection light is still always off.
Regarding opengapps, I moved webview and LatinIME from app directory to external SD in TWRP, then installed as normal app after system boot. Webview worked fine besides LatinIME always crash. I'm using different IME, so it's no problem. With this environment, opengapps nano can be installed, then Chrome, Maps and other google apps worked.

That's good. Than we can make a flashable zip to automatically move and symlink them to data partition.
I will provide a new build till end of the week with improved usb and notification LED implementation. I already got it working in my local setup

Newer android versions have been designed while keeping low ram devices in mind. Ram hungry special features like the picture in picture mode are excluded from builds for older device. So the situation is much better then on iOS. But a newer phone would run better thought.
Most android apps are available for x86. But some are still arm only and get automatically emulated. The intel houdini emulator integrates these apps natively into the system but they are a bit slower then x86 apps. These are for example Skype and a few unity based games

Thanks for the response. So I should be alright with it then, hopefully. I just hope it won't lag on that old SoC. I'd love if you could upload a quick video of it in action.

-All features of Hazous 14.1 rom
-MicroG signature spoofing patch is included.
-Adaptive icons can be disabled in homescreen settings.
I can include more features if requested
Known Bugs
-Mobile cell connection doesn't connect after boot. You have to turn airplane mode on and off to let it work.
-selinux is set to permissive for now (reduced security)
Please report more bugs if you test this rom

Yes, system partition size is limited on this phone. To install GApps some files need to be moved to data partition.
I created a flashable zip to automate this process. Take a look at the modified install description in the first post

New build is up now.

I could confirm that notification LED and USB storage works fine with lineage-16.0-20190713-UNOFFICIAL-smi. Thanks.
Still WiFi with storage encryption does not work.

Alright, thanks. I bought my friend's RAZR i and I am planning to use it as a daily driver with this ROM (I'm a light user anyway), I can't thank you enough for making this LineageOS for such an old device. I wonder if such a recent Lineage has been developed for the 2011 Atrix, haven't seen one.
I have questions though, firstly I've never used a custom ROM before, can I simply follow the instructions on this thread to get it working, or is there anything that has to be done beforehand like rooting? Secondly, are any other OSs successfully booting on this x86 phone, as I can't find it on XDA? (it surprisingly hasn't gotten much attention as a hackable device like HTC HD2 or Nokia N900 got).

If the phone never had a custom rom yet, you have to unlock the bootloader first. Description is in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928551

I'm not sure if I misunderstood but when you said "it required deleting....." and "reducing partition size of data", did you mean you can get WiFi to work if you do those things? I'm no expert at these but I can atleast apply the "fix" (if it really is) given that you guide me, if it's okay with you. Thanks!

fix system warning on startup

what version its android 12 ??? thanks
regards

Can the pixel-3a deauth WPA networks?

the kernel versions are labled according thier corresponding letter in alphabetical order. p is 9, q is 10, r is 11 and 12 is s.
yes the pixel 3 is capable of de-auth of wpa networks although it will take longer than it would on a pc. if the tools are available the device can use them

all updated kernels will be found on my github page from here on out.
major update now for A12-S and A11-R kernels. the system warning at startup has been fixed. enjoy

can you make one for pixel 4a. i tried but failed

@Duhjoker
Ayy first off thanks for putting the kernal together! After tinkering with trying to get nethunter functional on my pixel 3a for about 3 days I figured it was time to reach out haha.
I did follow your instructions the best I could multiple ways. I now have re flashed lineage os many times and followed the guide from their site (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/sargo/install). I am running the p3a R kernal since I have android 11 running on the pixel. The kernal seems to be functional as it shows up as expected when looking inside of the nethunter app. I have magik v23 installed with root access and all is fine there. I did run into a hicups with the terminal throwing the error " "Required key not available"." when trying to run any commands from zsh from the kali terminal app.
I was able to resolve this problem by doing the following
SSH Bash: Required key not available
Hi guys, When I connect to my Nethunter through SSH from my laptop, (tried both root and kali as user). It seems the SSH bash environment is limited. with most commands I type in, the SSH terminal returns: -Bash: /usr/bin/TheCommandIJustTyped Required key not available I looked everywhere...
forums.kali.org
I've been able to solve the problem commenting the line:
#session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke
in /etc/pam.d/sshd and /etc.pam.d/su-l files.
After restart chroot environment, write operations from chroot to Android encrypted data partition is working.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I can get to a point where It appears that I have a "fully functional" nethunter app / terminal the problem arises when I actually try using it. I cannot seem to get any of the hardware functional. For example bluetooth interfaces listed under "bluetooth arsenal" show up as none. When trying to run the wlan1 or wlan0 in monitor mode it is not functional. I am not even able to scan for SSIDs of networks broadcasting.
I know you stated the following.
also included are some libs and binaries and other such materials needed to get a fully working version of Kali-nethunter on your pixel 3A and 3A XL device. just unzip the kali-hacks.zip place in proper directories using twrp and give proper permissions.

After many attempts and learning how the android filesystem / chroot are laid out I managed to copy the files from "kali-hacks.zip" into the "/system" directory. This made the most sense to me after poking around on the phone and online. This leads to my first question. Is this the correct file path to copy the files to? I applied a chroot 755 on the files and then ran "mount -o rw,remount /" to make root writable and simply copied all of the files over by doing "mv * /system" from the kali-hacks directory. This was all done as the root user from TWRP. I would assume if I did this correctly everything would be functional hardware wise. So either I am going about it all silly like or something is funky.
My second question is the following. Did you do anything to make sure that your file system is NOT encrypted? I know thats why zsh was giving me there error "Required key not available". Therefore, assuming that I did infact copy the kali_hack.zip files correctly I feel this may be the cause of my woes. When checking the kali nethunter documentation it does list that you need to make the system non-encrypted.

6. Flashing Universal DM-Verity & ForceEncrypt Disabler​IMPORTANT NOTE for Android 9, 10, & 11 users: Please ensure that you flash the Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt Disabler and format the data partition prior to installing NetHunter. Magisk does not support user context changes on encrypted data partitions, which leads to errors when connecting to the Kali rootfs via ssh (i.e. “Required key not available”) if the data partition is encrypted.

Although funny enough when following the official docs the link from the site redirects you to "https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ncrypt-disk-quota-disabler-11-2-2020.3817389/" which then sends you to "https://github.com/Zackptg5/Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt" which is depreciated and last updated 14 months ago... I still tried anyways out of desperation with a fresh install of lineage os using the method he provided to get a non encrypted filesystem. The outcome was not successful. (instructions I followed can be found in the XDA link above).
Thanks in advance if you get around to reading this. I have bashed my head against this for probably 20ish hours now over the last couple of days and exhausted all of my ideas. Any help is appreciated.
Recap on Questions (TL;DR)
1. How / at what time during install / where should I be copying the files in "kali-hacks.zip" to?
2. Did you do anything to make your file system not encrypted as recommended per the kali nethunter docs? If so how did you manage to do so?

The kali-hacks should be unzipped and copied to /syatem and i usually install them after getting the apks and rootfs installed.
As far as encrypted.... i do not know what you mean by that. Its best to let the gui app download the roots from thier server during install.

create for pixel 3 pls

Has anyone made this to use on pixel 3 XL yet?

hey guys i just updated the kernel to 12.1.

attached is a Mad-Kali-MaxHunter kernel for blueline and crosshatch pixel 3 (xl) only. let me know what you think

Super stoked for Kali-Touch! lmk if you need a tester - I've got spare phones.

PSA -
For anyone running the newest linage OS (19.1) on the pixel 3a and are struggling to get the nethunter app to boot properly after providing it root perms using magisk. Try the following, it worked for me.
get the app to boot properly you need to do the following
The issue was of Permissions - to solve the issue run the following commands in AndroidSU
Code:
pm grant com.offsec.nethunter android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
pm grant com.offsec.nethunter android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
pm grant com.offsec.nethunter android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Hey guys, I'm trying to make it work but I'm out of luck
this is what I did:
1. I unlocked the phone and installed twrp recovery
2. I flashed the "Mad-Kali-MaxHunter-P3A-S.zip" using twrp
3. I used twrp to install magisk
4. Installed "KaliNethunter-v8.2(22).zip" using magisk modules
5. after reboot after updating the Nethunter app from the Nethunter Marketplace and giving it all the permissions that it requested it gives this error in the notification:
```
Nethunter: Startup
Root: OK.
BusyBox: OK.
Chroot: Chroot is not yet installed.
Make sure the above requirements are met.
```
and the Nethunter app keeps crashing as soon as it opens....

Possible to build some modules for this card?

[Rom] Ubuntu touch [halium 9] with waydroid [11] support

This is an update to the Ubuntu Touch build that I shared a while back.which was based on halium 7. Now we are moving to halium 9. Even with quite a few unsolved issues ,these builds are marginal improvement over the previous ones.
This port had been no means easy, in reality, the initial builds was even more buggy compared to previous gen ,but most of them were much easier to fix, as I got lots of help from the porting community.I was able to get it to a booting state in about 3 months time as compared to more than a year with halium 7 , to be fair the delay was also due to the fact that I was not exactly an android developer or a developer for that matter, and had to read a lot at first .
anyways I share it here as I have reached a point where further bug fixing is beyond my capability . or in other words, Googling error codes and testing all possible methods /solutions don't seem to yield any meaningful full result, I do really wish someone better than me would look into it and make it even better ;- )
In the meantime let me add more Verbose ;-P
What is ubuntu touch
ubuntu touch is different from other oses as it is fork of Linux as compared to all our favorite mobile oses being forks of android. in other words, it is a fully functional Linux os optimized to run on arm64 device in a touch environment.The original idea was conceived by canonical and later they stoped their work and open-sourced the project and transferred the assets to the ubports community, the community is actively improving it, and trying to bring it to feature parity with Android .
whats working on this port
calls,data ,wifi
sound, vibration
auto rotation
auto, manual brightness
Offline charging
GPS
and other misc things
whats partially working
camera (preview and take video works clicking picture not working)
fingerprint (fingerprint wakes the device but cant enroll fingerprints)
Bluetooth (everything works except file transfer)
what does not work
adb,mtp
one of the feature improvements amongst other things is the support for waydroid
Waydroid
waydroid is a containerised approach to get an android environment running in a Linux system with the added advantage of full hardware access.so we can android apps and games natively. more details can be found here. to install way droid open terminal and paste the following
sudo -s
mount -o rw,remount / && apt update && apt install waydroid && waydroid init
It also need a fix as waydroid is intended for treble devices which can be found in this post. Thank you @erfanoabdi for enabling support for non treble devices.
Installation
- flash the halium-boot and the following zip file
- clean flash recommended
- reboot after the initial setup is done

For me the fix was to firstly install old ubuntu touch, load it and configure. After that,flash bootimage of new Ubuntu Touch with Halium9, then flash .zip with new Ubuntu Touch. It will give error, it is normal - go to /data/ and delete dir "ubports", then try again.
After that - just reboot, system will start with configured profile "Ubuntu"
The password is just "a"

Also, for me sound not working.

For me deleting ubports helps to end without error-
When i don`t delete and get error, the system just don`t want to boot.
No animation, just black screen and when reboot

um that for me sound dont work too..
if not delete ubports in recovery and install, it 'll show a short black screen with a small mouse and reboot.
Also there are strange permission issues in the system dirty flashed from halium 7

Can I ask for some clarification? I managed to install the alpha version from your previous post, but how do you flash these update zips? I tried flashing them via TWRP on the device but I keep getting "recovery busybox setup failed" error.

An update on this, after two more tries of reinstalling old ubuntu touch > flashing halium-boot through fastboot > Flashing zip through TWRP. It flash without issue and booted. Initially the sound isn't working, but after several weird restarts (select poweroff but it restarted, select poweroff but it froze on boot logo, etc etc), sound is working. This is a fun project

updated the flashable zip .. thankyou for the fix @Kn8Ryder
