[Q] Kali Linux NetHunter project porting? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

will it be possible for anyone here to port kali linux nethunter project from the nexus 5 to the oneplus one? some information is here http://www.kali.org/kali-linux-nethunter/ and from their FAQ about porting they say this:
"How can I install NetHunter on my xyz device? Does it work on any non Nexus devices?
It is possible to build “rootfs” NetHunter images only, which don’t include our custom kernel, so features like HID, Wi-Fi injection, and BadUSB will not work, and in general, “Your Mileage May Vary”. We do not provide support for this though, so you’re on your own."
I just really want a good pentesting suite and with bcmon only working with broadcom chips a suite like this would be awesome for our device, the nexus 5 isnt too different so a good porter should be able to get the job done right? something else that looks interesting is this https://www.pwnieexpress.com/. what do you guys think of porting a pentesting suite or creating an alternative? what is the best penetration testing solution for android on our oneplus one's? i personally just use an app called dsploit but i want to broaden my surroundings with a full featured rom like this one.

[Q] Modifying Stock Tab2 (GT-P5100) Kernel to Integrate Mocana Products

All,
Sorry of the post in the Q&A but as a new user, i cant post into the development forums where this should possibly sit.
I am currently working on a project that is deploying an enterprise use tablet, but we have some requirements to lock the device down, and enhance some of the crypto / DAR stuff.
We are looking at products from Mocana - to do this, now some of their products require swapping out parts of the android kernel. I was just wondering on what the best approach would be for us to achieve this?
At the moment we have the stock firmware running on the device out of the box, i am aware of the Samsung Open Source website. I am not really too fussed with the "TouchWiz" enchancements, i just need a working / bootable ICS build on this device, which i can compile and build out with the Mocana replacements.
Any ideas as to a good starting point / where I can find some more information?

[Q] Multi-Boot Linux Project

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone had any tips. I'm converting my son's HP Mini 110-1012nr into a multi-Linux project just for fun. I have Ubuntu 12.10, Chromium OS and am attempting to add Android-X86. The problem is my son's wifi adapter: It's a Broadcom 4312 and does not play nice with Linux. I was successful with the Ubuntu and Chromium builds, but just can't get it set up on any x86 version of Android I can find. It helped that I could get the ethernet working in Ubuntu and program on USB before actually installing Chromium. Anybody have any tips? Builds? Pointers? Or if you would just like to discuss my project (which I am having fun with in my quest to move my family out of the Bill Gates dependency), then feel free. Thank you in advance.

Well it is going to be hard to get Android x86 working with a WIFI Adapter especially BCM4312
Anyways here you go.

You may have to remove specifics about Dell Lattitude XT and simply
use the script that download the driver from Broadcom web site and
patches the build system...
In-short, you have to compile your own Kernel to get it working
Thank you for the reply. I was thinking that too, but am hoping to avoid building my own. It might be fun to take on though. Your link is one I hadn't seen before. I know Broadcom released the drivers to a dev from dell (that's how I got Chromium to work). I am too new to post the link, but hit me up if anyone is interested. I'll find a way to get you the link.
The link that I gave should help you out without even having to Compile your own Kernel, bcz I did come across one such post

install android like windows, linux or other OS

hello comunity,
thank you for taken me into your community.
my question might is weird but i was always wondering why android ROMS are always just made for specific devices.
As known from the Personal Computers you just get an installation media like DVD or USB Drive packed with the OS and all the driver the computer might have. the installation routine just figures out the the device needs and installs acordingly.
why this is not possible for the ARM-devices to install android OS like this? or is there already projects who invented? i think almost everybody (especially those who owns a not anymore supported device by the manufacturer) would appreciate if he/she could upgrade by using an autonomous installer.
I am not a hardware architecture nerd thats why i would appreciate and kindly ask for an easy to understand explanation

Creating a linux 'distro' for an android device?

Hi there, not sure if I'm on the right forum, but this seemed like the safest place to ask.
I have this project in my head that I would like to try, but I have no idea if it is even possible.
I'm currently doing a bachelors in computer science and as a way to learn, I would like to take on a big project.
As will soon become clear, I am a linux noob and know nothing about android development, but that's what I'm trying to change here.
Some time ago I bought a Chinese ereader (rebranded BOOX C67ML - using a rockchip rk3026 SoC, don't know how important that is -) and it's decent but it also kind of sucks. It runs android which overkill for a device like this if you ask me. When I look at the kindle or kobo ereaders, they have their proprietary os that is also Linux based, but much more streamlined without unnecessary features. This device doesn't even have wifi, so what am I going to do with full android on an e-ink screen? It only drains my battery more than it has to.
My question is, how feasible is it to create my own 'OS' for this device that is also Linux based and lightweight? I know that android devices can run gnu/linux in a sort of vm on top, but is it also possible to install this directly on the device? Wipe android and install a custom linux distro as you would a custom ROM.
Is this possible? Where do I begin? Any information on how the linux kernel underneath android functions and differs from a standard linux kernel would be great. I'm not asking for an easy solution served on a platter, I just want to know if it is possible and why or why not? Where do I go to learn about how to do this, point me in the right direction?
In searching around I came across postmarketOS, from what I understand they are trying to do something similar, only completely open source. No proprietary drivers for anything. For this project that is not a goal for me. If I can reuse parts of the android rom that it is running right now, I have no problem with that. Updating and keeping it up to date are not really a priority, I just need this to run a single application that works. Could also be that I completely don't understand what they are trying to do and I'm way off, but if so, please tell me what I don't understand and where I go to learn.
TLDR: Lightweight 'desktop' linux instead of android on an ereader, is it possible? Where do I start? Point me in the right direction please.
PS: If there is a better solution for this problem entirely, please do explain.
For anyone interested or with a similar idea, I'll just post what extra information I find here.
I stumbled upon Halium and Libhybris today. From what I understand, libhybris provides a compatibility layer between the android kernel and posix compatible applications. Halium uses libhybris and tries to create a common base that can be used to develop a non-android os for an android device. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Question Project Renegade for TB-J716F

Happened to come across this wonderful project!
The Renegade Project Brings Full-Blown Windows 11 To Smartphones

Will you guys think it might come to our device?
Or any experts can make use of the source code to build one suitable for use?
I tried porting edk2. First, there is a problem with the Dxe file and the memory map. Even if I fix this somehow, there is a problem with the hypervisor, so it is very difficult.
