Kali NetHunter for the Galaxy Note 3 (3.1.0)
Welcome to the thread on Kali NetHunter for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
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-security/kali-nethunter/wiki
The answer to all your questions, generally the answer is YES, IT CAN DO THAT.
Most AOSP based ROMs should be supported!
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
Current version: 3.15.3 (stable, 2016-12-17)
Please be careful to download the right version based on this table:
N9005: hlteeur
N900W8 & N900T: hltecan
N900P: hltespr
N900K, N900L, & N900S: hltekor
SC-01F: hltedcm
SCL22: hltekdi
CyanogenMod 12.1 & SlimRom 5.1: lollipop
CyanogenMod 13.0 & SlimRom 6.0: marshmallow
Nightly TWRP flashable zips are located at: https://build.nethunter.com/nightly/
BEFORE INSTALLING
Please make sure your phone boots fine and runs fine before flashing NetHunter. It's confusing when people report bugs that exist in CyanogenMod by itself.
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 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.
FULL FRESH INSTALL STEPS
Optional: Flash CyanogenMod/SlimRom installer zip
Optional: Flash Gapps if you want them (preferably OpenGapps pico)
Boot into device
Complete setup wizard
Reboot into recovery
Flash kernel-nethunter-hlte* and nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling zips in any order.
Boot into device
Open the NetHunter app
Use the Kali Chroot Manager to finish the installation
You're done!
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 ~60 MB update-nethunter-* zip again.
RUNNING WIFI PENETRATION TESTS
The internal WiFi chipset of the Galaxy Note 3 is not capable of running services which use monitor mode such as Wifite. For this, you will need to use a monitor mode capable WiFi adapter through a microUSB OTG adapter.
As for compatible adapters, I highly recommend the Alfa Networks AWUS036NEH (eBay) which uses the Ralink RT3070 chipset. There are currently no monitor mode supported Wireless-AC adapters available.
Once plugged in, you can run the command from Kali terminal to turn on your adapter:
[email protected]:~# ip link set wlan1 up
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 (hlte, hltecan, hltesovietrussia, etc.)
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.
You may be able to fix some bugs by updating to the latest bootloader and modem for your device.
See: (Direct Download) Latest Bootloaders & Modems
KNOWN ISSUES
USB Keyboard & VNC - Google Keyboard, AOSP Keyboard, CM Keyboard do not work due to a depth bug, use Hacker's Keyboard as a workaround.
Terminal App - Full screen programs like nano or vi are unusable unless you use the resize command. (always type resize when opening a new terminal window)

DEVELOPMENT
For the kernel included in NetHunter for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, you can find the sources here: https://github.com/jcadduono/idleKernel-note3
See the Kali NetHunter installer source here: https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter
See the Kali NetHunter app source here: https://github.com/offensive-security/nethunter-app
It is powered by idleKernel, however none of the idleKernel scripts (ikconfig, usb control, kernel tweaks) are available by default. I recommend installing idleKernel zip (non-NetHunter) from the idleKernel thread and then flashing the NetHunter updater or kernel installer over idleKernel. You will then have all of idleKernel and Kali NetHunter's features at your disposal.

great cant wait to try it out
What solution are you offering for Wifi devices, Are you going to compile kernel for compatable devices?
Or is this something the user is going to have to do.
I only mention this, as i have a Working version of Nethunter and have for over a year, But i refused to post release information due to the support required to get various wifi devices to work.
I did not want to get involved so the release never happened, Am happy compliling my own kernel for supported drivers, But i dont see your average joe doing this.
Also another snag i found was you can only have the one wifi device enabled at one time, so disabling the onboard to enable the external.
All issues by commands, but am just questioning if you have considered this or have support for this?

I suppose multiple WiFi devices would be in the realm of Kali rather than the kernel. I can't imagine it being harder than using a powered USB hub to connect multiple radios and configure each of them using one of the network managers available in the Kali repository, while leaving your native Broadcom WiFi to Android to handle. All the popular / mac80211 injection capable WiFi drivers are compiled right into the kernel and enabled - not as modules. The Nethunter installer takes care of installing all the necessary firmware binaries to your system partition as well.
The compatible USB WiFi dongles should just be plug and play at this point.
I'm still waiting on my TP TL-WN822N to arrive from Amazon for testing.
Btw have you tried the Nethunter 3.0 app? It really is designed to make everything quick and easy, 1 step for whatever you're trying to do.
Considering swinging by the #nethunter room on freenode to ask questions and/or suggest ideas to make things easier.
I have not tried 3.0
Am still talking about 2.0 seems like they have added some additional support like network manager.
This was not present in my build so i just use a few bash scripts to enable and disable.
But ill give this version 3.0 a try thanks

Not a network manager in nethunter app, I mean install one in Kali chroot the same way you would on a Debian server.
Version 3.0.1 is now up and the changes are:
Tell SuperSU to install in system mode (not systemless)
Update SuperSU to version 2.66
Use SuperSU's supolicy binary to patch the sepolicy during install (fixes Marshmallow/CM13.0 unable to boot)
Inject init.superuser.rc into the ramdisk if it's not there already
SuperSU should no longer be broken with non-gzip compressed ramdisks
Find commits here: https://github.com/jcadduono/kali-nethunter/commits/master
Please note that it is still Kali Nethunter 3.0, and the .1 is just an update that improves flashing compatibility.
Y'know, I really thought you guys would be eating this stuff right up. <_<
please include flashing instructions - do we need to also flash gapps...which ones should we use. Thank you.

It's not a ROM, it's an app, kernel, and environment. You have to flash it on an already set up CyanogenMod ROM from TWRP.

Doesn't matter. If you flash idleKernel after, make sure it's the -kali version though. The only thing flashing idleKernel does is add ikconfig, /sbin/usb, and a few small kernel tweaks in the ramdisk.

So, do we need to use version for CM 12.1 for OnePlus from here?
https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-nethunter-download/
Ps
It works
First install kali kernel, after download Kali for oneplusone, reboot into recovery, install kali zip, and aftet again idle kali kernel.
I am on CM 12.1 nightly...

Why are you doing this!!! You're bound to end up breaking something.
All you do is flash this after completing CM setup wizard and you're done. There's absolutely no reason to download any other Kali installer. This is the full version 3.0! Nethunter app now sets up your chroot for you.
Full steps:
Flash CyanogenMod installer zip
Flash Gapps (preferably opengapps pico)
Boot into device
Complete setup wizard
Reboot into recovery
Flash the Galaxy Note 3 Kali Nethunter installer zip from this thread
Boot into device
You're done!
If you absolutely need ikconfig or /sbin/usb, then you can install idleKernel-kali zip from the idleKernel thread later.
3.0.1_2016_01_10 build uploaded. Just a bug fix for Nethunter app.
Installation query
I have CM13 set up with superSU 2.46 and idleKernel 6.5.5 installed.
Do I have to install CM all over again? And follow your steps, or is there a way for me to keep my data and just flash it as is?

Make a full backup in twrp first.
Wipe /system and dalvik and /cache. Install latest CM13 (or CM12.1 if thats what you meant) zip and gapps, then boot into system. Once boot is complete, reboot into recovery and flash nethunter then boot and you should be good to go without deleting your data.

I can see some scripts somehow survived even with full wipe, now my recovery provide some red lines doing job, something path missing in /data/...something/something
Though do the job.
I thought nothing can survive after full wipe...
Welcome to the thread on Kali NetHunter for the nVidia SHIELD tablet and SHIELD tablet K1.
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.

The answer to all your questions, generally the answer is YES, IT CAN DO THAT.
The installer zip will add a few files (including busybox) 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.
These Kali NetHunter builds are designed and tested for nVidia's Marshmallow release & CyanogenMod 13.0.
In theory, they should work fine on -all- Marshmallow SHIELD ROMs.
DOWNLOAD
Current version: 3.15.2 (testing, 2016-10-13)
Download here: https://build.nethunter.com/nightly
Your device is: shieldtablet
Recommended install method: Use TWRP 3.0.2-2 or newer for shieldtablet
Install kernel-nethunter-shieldtablet and nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling zips in any order.
Kernel only installers are in the kernel-only directory inside each build directory. It might be a better idea to try and install that first and see if you can boot before flashing the entire NetHunter.
You can actually only install the kernel if you want to take advantage of its features without having to install the rest of NetHunter!
BEFORE INSTALLING
Do not flash the NetHunter update zip with a fresh data partition!
Most ROMs will wipe it clean on the first boot if you haven't completed the Android Setup Wizard yet, there's no need to wipe your ROM or data to try it out. I do advise backing up your data partition before flashing the zip though.
(this should no longer be possible now with added installation checks)
Please make sure your phone boots fine and runs fine before flashing NetHunter. It's confusing when people report bugs that exist in CyanogenMod by itself.
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 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.
FULL INSTALL STEPS
Boot into TWRP
Flash kernel-only/kernel-nethunter-shieldtablet and chroot-full/nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling zips in any order.
Reboot into device
Open the NetHunter app
Let the NetHunter app finish setting everything up
You're done!
UPDATING TO A NEWER BUILD
Going from 3.0.0 and up, all you have to do is flash the new build in recovery. On some ROMs you may need to wipe dalvik cache.
UPDATING YOUR ROM
To get all your NetHunter and SuperSU functions back after flashing a new ROM, just flash the new ~60 MB nethunter-generic-armhf zip and kernel-nethunter-shieldtablet zip in TWRP.
RUNNING WIFI PENETRATION TESTS
The internal WiFi chipset of the SHIELD tablet is not capable of running services which use monitor mode such as Wifite. For this, you will need to use a monitor mode capable WiFi adapter through a microUSB OTG adapter.
As for compatible adapters, I highly recommend the Alfa Networks AWUS036NEH (eBay) which uses the Ralink RT3070 chipset. There are currently no monitor mode supported Wireless-AC adapters available.
Once plugged in, you can run the command from Kali terminal to turn on your adapter:

Terminal App - Full screen programs like nano or vi are unusable unless you use the resize command. (always type resize when opening a new terminal window)
THE KERNEL
The NetHunter kernel for the nVidia SHIELD tablet is based on nVidia's rel-24-sb-r1-2 kernel sources.
It has the following changes:
F2FS added using Jaeguek Kim's latest kernel.org:f2fs-stable sources (available on data partition)
Cortex-A15 & Neon-VFPv4 + -O2 compiler optimizations
NEON-asm kernel & SHA/AES NEON support
Compiled with Linaro's branch of GCC 4.9 (2016.02)
Simple IO (SIO) scheduler as default IO scheduler (updated)
USB HID Gadget keyboard support
mac80211 packet injection support
Updated mac80211 and USB WiFi drivers
TCP congestion control updates and fixes
Westwood, HTCP, or Cubic (default) TCP congestion algorithms
DriveDroid compatibility
Steel01's KEXEC hardboot support for Multi-ROM
Additional drivers built in for the full Kali NetHunter experience

So, those kexec patches aren't needed unless you're expecting to be running as the primary ROM. Which I guess is possible. But also note that those are in flux... I haven't got multirom officially working for M yet. I might have just cracked it tonight, but it isn't released yet. Also, the arm64 kexec patch set isn't needed for this device, they're there because the kernel also works for Tegra X1 devices, aka the Shield TV.

Hey, alright, thanks! I kind of just saw the patches there and figured "may as well grab em so people aren't complaining it won't boot" (this happens a lot on devices with multirom support!)
Good to know who to credit them to now. I'll update it again when you've got it all working then.
I've got a shield TV myself which is why I cherry picked the X1 parts. Figured I'd try it out on there eventually for the the chroot and a few services anyway. <.<

Well, the twrp I was referring to is this one by @Steel01
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=64520513
However the unofficial twrp 3.0.2 by @romracer also works. I'm not sure if the source is available for the 3.0.2, but steel01 has stated his source is available. I'll reflash yours and pull some logs in a little bit. Thanks again
Edit: oh, the Vulcan update I was talking about was the 6.0.1 ota from Nvidia, not the borked 6.0 update
Edit 2: I guess I wasn't using the twrp I thought I was. The steel01 versions don't actually let you access adopted storage. But the other by romracer does

I guess my first dumb question is why is a ROM maintaining a separate version of twrp and not just using the ones already built?
Then what tree was it built against? I assume USB is working on mine (see here, yes it's the multirom edition, but all the standard twrp 3.0 functions are the same). I can't test that right now, though. Can someone with the problems see if they happen there too?
The touchscreen (technically screen refresh) issue is the same both here and on the shield tv. No idea what's going on. Tried toggling double buffering off, but no dice. lj50043 (iirc on the numbers) is the official twrp maintainer for the tablet. He'd be the one to talk to. But he hasn't made any progress last I checked either.
Just about to give this a go!
Kudos to you guys for finally giving me a nerd outlet on the go
Welcome to the thread on Kali NetHunter for the LG G5.
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-security/kali-nethunter/wiki
The answer to all your questions, generally the answer is YES, IT CAN DO THAT.
The installer zip will add a few files (including busybox) 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.
These Kali NetHunter builds are designed and tested for LG G5 stock 6.0.1 firmware.
DOWNLOAD
Current version: 3.1.0 (stable, 2016-04-29)
Download here: https://idlekernel.com/nethunter/nightly
Your device is: h830 (T-Mobile) / h850 (International)
Recommended install method: Use TWRP 3 for H830 or TWRP 3 for H850
Install kernel-nethunter-[h830|h850] and nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling zips in any order.
You can actually only install the kernel if you want to take advantage of its features without having to install the rest of NetHunter!
BEFORE INSTALLING
Do not flash the NetHunter update zip with a fresh data partition!
Most ROMs will wipe it clean on the first boot if you haven't completed the Android Setup Wizard yet, there's no need to wipe your ROM or data to try it out. I do advise backing up your data partition before flashing the zip though.
(this should no longer be possible now with added installation checks)
Please make sure your phone boots fine and runs fine before flashing NetHunter. It's confusing when people report bugs that exist due to other factors unrelated to NetHunter.
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 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.
If you would like to use another root method, or prefer systemless SuperSU, then simply remove the supersu folder from the installer zip and it will proceed without it.
FULL INSTALL STEPS
Follow the instructions on setting up working data and internal storage in TWRP.
Flash kernel-nethunter-[h830|h850] and nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling zips in any order.
Reboot into device
Open the NetHunter app
Let the NetHunter app finish setting everything up
You're done!
UPDATING TO A NEWER BUILD
Going from 3.0.0 and up, all you have to do is flash the new build in recovery. On some ROMs you may need to wipe dalvik cache.
UPDATING YOUR ROM
To get all your NetHunter and SuperSU functions back after flashing a new ROM, just reflash the kernel-nethunter-[h830|h850] zip and the ~60 MB update-nethunter-generic-armhf zip in TWRP.
RUNNING WIFI PENETRATION TESTS
The internal WiFi chipset of the G5 is not capable of running services which use monitor mode such as Wifite. For this, you will need to use a monitor mode capable WiFi adapter through a USB-C host adapter.
As for compatible adapters, I highly recommend the Alfa Networks AWUS036NEH (eBay) which uses the Ralink RT3070 chipset. There are currently no monitor mode supported Wireless-AC adapters available.
Once plugged in, you can run the command from Kali terminal to turn on your adapter:
[email protected]:~# ip link set wlan1 up
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 be h830/h850)
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 & VNC - Google Keyboard, AOSP Keyboard, CM Keyboard do not work due to a depth bug, use Hacker's Keyboard as a workaround.
Terminal App - Full screen programs like nano or vi are unusable unless you use the resize command. (type resize when opening a new terminal window)
Sound - There is no sound when using the NetHunter kernel. Well, the Kali slogan...you know. Just kidding, this needs urgent fixing!
THE KERNEL
The NetHunter kernel for the LG G5 is based on LG's H850 v10a kernel sources.
It has the following changes:
Updated to Linux 3.18.31 (security fixes & more)
F2FS added using Jaeguek Kim's latest kernel.org:f2fs-stable sources (available on system/data/cache!)
UKSM - Ultra Kernel Same-page Merging support
Compiled with -O2 optimizations using GCC Linaro 5.3 aarch64 toolchain
Simple IO (SIO) scheduler as default IO scheduler (updated for modern kernels)
USB HID Gadget keyboard support
mac80211 packet injection support
Westwood, HTCP, or Cubic (default) TCP congestion algorithms
savoca's KCAL display color calibration driver
RTL-SDR, BT RFCOMM, and various WiFi OTG drivers enabled
NFS and CIFS client support with file caching
Additional drivers built in for the full Kali NetHunter experience

It's a kit ROM so to speak. It's for penetration testing so if you don't know what it is then you don't need it.

Kool, cheers
Up and runing. Bootanimation is not fullscreen, and it looks like wifite does not find any internal wifi (Not that internal will be of any use, but it was shown on my other android device). Need to get a usb-c otg cable now to get my alfa rocking again.
This are just things i find, should not be in a offended way.
Awesome that it came to h850 so fast, thanks.

Yup added a note in the middle of my first post about the internal WiFi. Unfortunately the boot animation was made for us in 1080p and while we could resize it to other resolutions, it wouldn't look very nice stretched out. :x I guess it wouldn't be terrible on 2560x1440, but we can't really be bothered to create multiple boot animation zips right now unless someone wants to help us!
I'm just glad it worked first try, I made a ton of changes in the kernel and was expecting it to crash or not boot. It's nice to have a reliable device to maintain without owning it once in a while, Samsung's S7 is certainly the opposite where compiling even the stock kernel sources results in boot loops.
Also really glad OEMs are including full armhf binary support on their aarch64 devices! We've yet to port NetHunter fully to aarch64, though the installer is ready, the chroot isn't.
Could someone please gather a recovery.log from TWRP after flashing the two zips? Advanced -> Copy log to SDcard, copy it off your sdcard and preferably upload it in your reply. Thanks!
(I'm ensuring that everything is installing correctly with no silent errors)
If you've already installed NetHunter, it's safe to flash the zips again as much as you want!
nice to see this, current have it running one my oneplus one, will try it on my g5 soon
It would be very interesting to see a modular bottom modded to support an OTG interface and the insides of a USB wifi dongle...
Anybody having problems with adb and bluetooth not working ? Just want to be sure it's me.

Strange, hope you can fix it... Can't help you with that. But if you need more infos or a Log. Just say something! Really want to use this Kernel... Great work at all. Thanks!:good:
All connections are working Now with latest Version of this Kernel. But the Sound is still missing. None of the Outputs is working. Bootsound is also not hearable... ?
Hi can you work on having NTFS support via otg. Thanks.
I have no sound and sd card not reading on H30.
Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk
Has the sound issues and stuff been fixed:fingers-crossed:? I'm planning to get the G5 and this kind of a deal breaker between it and the HTC 10
(BTW, I'm planning on getting the H830)
This looks pretty awesome but I wouldn't install it on my G5. I think I'd get a OnePlus Two or something for this.
No sound and SD Card can not be read.My Phone is H850,V10c.I flash latest Version of this Kernel(kernel-nethunter-h850-marshmallow-3.1.0-20160524-1936)
I wonder if the dev would be better off compiling the kernel from source once more then adding in the modules one by one testing to see which one breaks it then just removes it until a future release.
Kali NET-HUNTER
This is the kali nethunter for the htc one m7 running on the latest android version (6.0 and 7.0 /NOUGAT/Marshmallow)
SCREENSHOTS

1.-Download the latest cm 13,14 or LOS 13,14 and nethunter and the Gapps ( Just to obatin Google Playstore )
2.-Flash cm 13 or LOS 14 and Gapps/
3.-Now reboot and load cm 13,14 or LOS rom ( wait until the boot completes )
4.-Go back to recovery and install the nethunter zip
5.-Now reboot
5.-success !

Update Big Thanks to @michael8t6 for making the kernel
androidhost are taking forever to approve my dev account so I've had to upload it to my G drive for now. This is the standard cm13 rom running on android 6.0, nothing has changed, I've just replaced the kernel with a patched one. You can download it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B43...ew?usp=sharing
steps to install
Copy the zip and Gapps to your phone.
Reboot into recovery mode.
Wipe data, cache, dalvik.
Flash rom, then flash Gapps
If you're S-OFF then simply reboot and follow ZpanicZ instructions for installing net hunter.
If you're S-ON then reboot back into bootloader.
Extract boot.im from the zip onto your computer and into your fastboot directory.
Plug your phone into your computer and run the following command:
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot and enjoy.
On the first reboot after flashing the rom, it can take up to ten mins for the phone to boot completely. Just be patient.
After you've finished installing nethunter, install the Xposed framework if you want to, not before, I fount this caused the phone to hang on the boot screen.
Once you've finished installing everything, run the nethunter app and grant it root permissions.
Close the app and re open the app, if you don't see any HID devices showing under the HID devices section. Open a new kali terminal and run the following command:
Code:
Code:
ls /dev/hidg*
You should see two HID devices come up, if you don't then post in this thread and I'll try to help you.
If you do see the devices, then nethunter isn't looking in root but the HID attacks should still work.
Lastly, if rubber ducky isn't working for you, then enable debugging mode via the developer options under settings and also connect your phone to your computer via MTP mode.
Known issues
▼BADUSB MITM isn't working, this isn't due to the kernel but is related to the nethunter install. I've been researching into this and need to look into the way it assigns the interfaces more.
▼I'm not sure if monitor mode is working for external wireless adapters. So basically, when building the kernel, I have to enable the relevant options to support the chipset drivers. The three main ones are obviously athros, ralink and realtek. When I was compiling, I hit an error regarding the realtek drivers, so for now I've not bothered enabling any support for wireless cards as compiling takes ages on my computer (she's a dinosaur). Once I'm not sick of staring at my monitor any more, I'm going to be looking into this feature as my first priority. That being said, if anyone does manage to enable monitor mode on a wireless adapter, please let me know in this thread, there's no point enabling athros drivers if they already work, it'll just make the kernel bulkier and slow down the phone overall.
▼You tell me.

Here are some of the features from kali linux site https://www.kali.org/kali-linux-nethunter/
you can do a lot of things with nethunter because it includes all kali linux OS features .
What i found is the best of this rom is the vnc (virtual network computing), it's kali linux v 1.0 on a phone !

I never saw this coming!
Just lately I had decided to hop onto my old HTC One M7 phone to see what all I had left on it. ...
Then I figured, hey, perhaps there's something newer that I could flash onto it seeing as how is been well over a year since I'd used it at all.
WoW! ... and then I found this on here and my mind was blown!
I've been wanting to try Kali NET-HUNTER out for years now and this this is just awesome, thank you for sharing this with us.

Hi Everyone
After some months of learning how to build my own Roms and how to edit the proprietary files of this Device i was able to build my first edited version of LineageOS 15.1 with HW Acceleration and the Camera working.
Its a slim an snappy Rom for everyone that´s looking for a monthly updated Android 8.1 Rom to keep this unique Device alive.
This first release is really basic because i deleted everything that doesn't work right.
My plans for this Rom are to keep it updated in case of Security Patches and add some Features here and there as i still learn how this Device and Android is working in general.
Also the official release of LineageOS 16 will end the development of this Rom for the reason i don't want to rival the official contributors of this Device.
Little FAQ to this Rom:
Do i need to Wipe my existing Rom even its LineageOS 15.1 based ?
Yes because i use my own Release Keys for this Rom you need to Wipe your existing one.
Is this Rom compatible with every Shield Tablet ?
Yes this Rom is working with every Shield Tablet
I have a Shield LTE Version and after flashing this Rom i cant connect my device for Data Transfer with my computer anymore.
For some Reason i still didnt found out on LineageOS 15.1 there is no Drop Down Menu for this Device to change the type of connection.
To change it go to Settings > Connected Devices > USB
I found a Bug with this Rom i didnt had on any Rom before what should i do before i post it here ?
Before you post any Bugs and Errors here make sure you installed this Rom correct as i told with a full wipe in your recovery first and if there are modifications installed like Magisk
Moduls or Xposed or you changed this Rom in any way, you should reinstall it fresh first to take a look if the issue still occurs.
If yes post a detailed report of the Error with a Logcat.txt File
Can i install and use Apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime,.. and watch content in HD again with this ROM ?
As this is a Problem with the Widevine Services and this Device itself this Rom doesn´t change anything on that. If you want to use the Netflix App for example you still have to use the liboemdecrypt modul on Magisk and its SD only
Thanks goes to:
@Steel01 and the whole LOS Team for doing all the hard work to keep this Device alive
@Artemka2008 for figuring out the OMX fix
@Triodexe for uploading his work on his Github so i could figure out how to edit the vendor files

Before you post any Bugs and Errors here make sure you installed this Rom correct as i told with a full wipe in your recovery first and if there are modifications installed like Magisk
Moduls or Xposed or you changed this Rom in any way, you should reinstall it fresh first to take a look if the issue still occurs.
If yes post a detailed report of the Error with a Logcat.txt File
Can i install and use Apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime,.. and watch content in HD again with this ROM ?
As this is a Problem with the Widevine Services and this Device itself this Rom doesn´t change anything on that. If you want to use the Netflix App for example you still have to use the liboemdecrypt modul on Magisk and its SD only
Thanks goes to:
@Steel01 and the whole LOS Team for doing all the hard work to keep this Device alive
@Artemka2008 for figuring out the OMX fix

Thank You for breathing new life into this great little tablet!
Thanks for keep this device alive!
Any ideas why clash of clans will not work on this ROM? Installed COC from Amazon App Store right after flashing this ROM and the game closes with no error right after it fully loads at the loading screen. Tried Lineage OS 16.0 and had the same exact issue using the google play store version with pico opengapps. I just want to use a smooth running ROM and play clash also QQ. Clash ran like trash on the stock 7.0 rom even after doing everything possible to make the tablet smoother.
Thank you very much and nice job Scavenger for keeping our tablet up and running!
Tried this ROM and was very happy to finally see one above Nougat on my shield tablet k1 that has 1080p 60 FPS videos playing smooth with no artifacts and doesn't crash. Also super smooth. Very nice, congratulations and many thanks.
However after I rebooted to recovery and flashes magisk it got stuck forever on Nvidia logo
Wiped everything again, reinstalled (ROM and gapps) and it booted without magisk. Tried flashing magisk again, same problem
I never had this issue with magisk before on this tablet (and I've tried several ROMs).
Anyone else faced this issue? Any advice?
@ogremalfeitor How do you tried to install Magisk? Refer https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
What would be the right way to install it?
@Scavenger87 Besides your LOS build we find also a recovery.img at androidfilehost.com - do we have to patch this one with the Magisk app? I never tried the LOS recovery before.

I tried many ways.
Usually with the latest magisk versions I rename the APK to ZIP and install it via TWRP (you can't do that with normal APKs but magisk one is special). This method has worked for me with other ROMs. From then on, when there are Magisk updates, I use the magisk manager app.
Meanwhile I tried dumping the boot partition from TWRP and use the manager to patch it, then flash it via fastboot. Same problem. If I then flash the unmodified boot image back, the system boots fine.
I'm now trying everything again, with the 3.5.0_9-0 version of TWRP (I had 3.4.0 installed). Also I was using aroma opengapps (costumizing what I want), I'm now going to try with pico as said in the first post. Will post back results.

No luck, same problem
Root addon from lineage os works, but fails safety net check pretty badly and does not support modules like Magisk...
@Scavenger87 do you have any advice to get Magisk working with this ROM? Are there any place logs are generated when the tablet is booting on the nvidia logo where mine is getting stuck? Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I have a question.
What should i Do with
Firmware Update : N/Stock 5.0
I have installed the Rom and the Gapps. And IT runs, on My K1

It's just there for people that might have an outdated stock firmware. If it worked for you without it, you don't need it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Maybe we have to patch boot.img from NVidia Stock Recovery 5.2 and flash this one?

This is a separate blob update. What for do we need this?

That's not it. The boot.img is unique to every ROM. It contains the kernel and the initial ramdisk (initrd, if you're interested in details search for that and there are a lot of interesting articles explaining the boot process of Linux and derivates like Android).
I know magisk modifies the initrd to sort of "inject" itself during that early boot process, but it doesn't make the system hang with other ROMs, hence before assuming it's a bug in magisk I'd like to know if anyone has any idea or if the ROM is missing anything that could cause this?

I believe it has to do with outdated bootloaders, which will be the case for people who never used recent stock firmwares, and it's there should you have problems (but don't confuse bootloader with boot partition or boot.img that I mentioned in another post). I think the script in the Zip detects it when you flash in twrp and gives an error if necessary but please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have try to installed the Firmware Update : N/Stock 5.0 in TRWP. It doesnt work. A Error Shows and it cant installed.
Well meanwhile I went on and started using this ROM without magisk. Started to have crashes here and there not long after, like most (if not all) ROMs for my tablet above android 7... until the video started to get corrupted in YouTube Vanced too which is a deal breaker for me.
Guess this is not the one ROM to solve my problems with this tablet after all, but still it's a great effort. Hope others enjoy it and thanks to the dev for sharing.
Hi everyone after a little vacation and some testing out of your reported issues this is what i found out so far:

I installed that game on a Tablet with LOS 14.1 and LOS 15.1 and in both cases the Game crashes because it run out of memory. I did a quick test on my Rom with adding ro.config.low_ram=true to the build.prop which activate the Go Version of Android and decreased the usage of Ram this way .
The Game runs but it started to get really sluggish after around 30 seconds.
It seems this Game just needs more than the 2GB Ram this device can offer.

After trying to flash many Versions of Magisk starting by 21.4 over 22.0 and the actual 23.0 via the TWRP Recovery Version (9.5.0_9-0) i mentioned in the Start Thread and trying to flash it with the Magisk App i also wasnt able to install Sucessfully Magisk without running into a Bootlop which is really a Bummer.
I dont know why this happends and i check my Kernel Logs i pulled with TWRP but for the moment we have to use the SU Addon by LOS.
Maybe it has something to do with that my build is signed with a personal key i will check that out.

Thats just the Blob File that needs to be flashed when the Bootloader isnt updated to the latest Version (4.00.2016.04)

On some rare ocassions you get those same green artefacts on videos like you get with the LOS 16.0 Rom but at least in my case it happends once a week or so and it seems it have something to do with memory managment again.
My guess is that the tegra drivers arent working really well with Android Versions above Nougat (7.0) and this leads to a memory leak but like i said its just a guess by me maybe @Steel01 can say more about that.
I try to optimize the memory management in the future builds if possible.
Hi Everybody
I think its time to give you a little update of my work on this build
After i got a good example of the problems with the ram management of this device i was looking for a solution last few days and i began testing with the Android Go Settings as i mentioned in the last Thread.
With that settings i was able to start that Game mentioned by @Hworangg and i even was able to play it a bit as you can see on one of the added Screenshots below. But you could also see this Game is a real RAM Hog with needing up to 484MB at the last session i played but it is kinda playable you just have to stay in that Game and turn off every notification as it might crashes otherwise. Speaking of crashes while the GO Settings really helping on reduce the usage of Ram by the System itself and let the device take more Memory Pressure it also leads to freezes where you often have to Hard Reset the Tablet because it seems to not close the Main App when its in a Out of Memory Situation. This is something i have to invest more time and research even after i played a lot with the Dalvik VM Settings.
I also found out that my Personal Key Signature is the reason that the install of Magisk is leading to a Bootloop. Here i also have to figure out why this is happen and if its even possible to install Magisk on a Signed Custom Rom as you change out the BOOT.img on this Device to achieve that and it seems the Magisk installer isnt able to resign the File with my Key.
TLDR:
I was able to set up my Build to use the optimized Android GO Settings to withstand more Memory Pressure so that Games like COC and heavy Browsing Sessions with lots of Tabs and Sites with a lot of Pictures doesn't crash that soon but it lead in both cases to a freeze of the whole Device.
The Magisk installer does not work when i sign my build with my own key.
For this Reason i decided to release a another Build for you to test with this Settings as a Nightly Release before i release my next Regular Build when the next Security Patch is out
You find it here : Nightly Build and i´m curious about your opinion.
Flashed the nightly onto a freshly wiped K1 along with opengapps and Magisk 23 using patched boot, no problems there. Video playback - Netflix played about as well as it could with level 3 widevine, with Jellyfin no obvious visual problems streaming 1080p over lan. Got hard freezes when running memory heavy apps (firefox, manga reader, 3d unity games) but it was expected.
Ended up downgrading back to factory stock Lollipop as the memory management is best there, even better than stock Nougat. But will keep an eye on your builds because the K1 could still be a great little tablet if the memory issues in newer versions of Android was fixed. Thank you for your hard work
