Kali/Nethunter

resources

notes on kali nethunter here: https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki

to install, need to use the nethunter rootkit: https://github.com/offensive-security/nethunter-LRT

for that, need to install prerequisites (android tools mainly)

procedure

you need a nexus 7 tablet, rooted or not

start by installing prereqs for nethunter rootkit

$ apt-get install android-tools-adb
$ apt-get install android-tools-fastboot

for nexus 7 tablet, get factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

get twrp file for asus nexus 7 here: https://twrp.me/Devices/ (got both the 2012 and 2013 files, not sure which one to use)

get latest superuser app for rooting your tablet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64161125&postcount=3

put each of these in the appropriate folders: https://github.com/offensive-security/nethunter-LRT

enable developer options by going to Settings > About Tablet > scroll down to the very bottom to Build Number and tap it 7 times. This will unlock develoepr options. This is really dumb, but welcome to Android, where you will die of cleverness.

Next:

root@basilisk:~/codes/nethunter-LRT# adb devices
List of devices attached 
015d46d908641608	device

root@basilisk:~/codes/nethunter-LRT# ./oemUnlock.sh

This reboots the phone, and gets your confirmation that you want to modify the boot loader. Use volume up/down to select an option, then push the power button.

You should see the computer printing some steps. When it is done, the tablet will begin to boot up.
