I had this too...i was on 4.3 stock with root...it was the kernel....try flashing another kernel or install omega rom v19 like i did...it works really well.

How to Install:

1. Download Linux Deploy from PlayStore

2. Open it and go to settings

setting1.jpg


3. Selection Distribution: Kali and leave everything else as default, except Disk Image Size, which you should use 7128mb instead of Automatic.

3a. Normally it automatically finds your resolution, but you can change it on this page. (One of the last items.)

4. Then select Install

4a. [IMPORTANT] Be sure to be connected to a Wi-Fi network, otherwise 1.4GB will be downloaded from your Mobile Network.

4b. The downloading time is quite long, and you can't lose connection through that, otherwise the .img will be corrupted.

5. Once you see <<< end: installation on the app, download your favorite VNC client and set-up the following configurations:


6. You will notice that there's no tools avaliable, open LXTerminal (From the dropup icon of Kali) then type:

and
Those are minor commands, to really install the tools see next step

7. Type

And wait for the full installation to complete, after it's sucesfully done it's good to go!

Q&A:

Which VNC Client you recommend?
I personally like Touchpad mouse settings and a full-screen view, the best free app that does the work for me is bVNC Free.

PostgreSQL gave me an error on the end of installation, is that supposed to happen?
YES, to fix PostegreSQL on Kali Linux ARM you have to whitelist on your network. You can do that by simply typing:


IceWeasel (Internet Browser) is not opening! What's wrong?
For some reason when you first install it, the browser is misconfigured. To solve that type:


Happy Hacking!

My installation fails with 7168 MB

Hi,

Followed the instructions listed here but my installation and everything works like a charm only when the size of image is selected as auto but I guess 4 GB will not be enough for the full kali tool install using apt-get install kali-Linux -yq

Galaxy s2 JB 4.1.2 rooted.

cheers

Works brilliantly. For people having problems on install. You need the following.

1. A phone not running android 4.3
2. Root
3. Busybox

If your phone can do USB OTG then it should work.
This is exactly what I'm thinking about doing since I only have 16GB on-board memory. I've purchased a Meenova Mini MicroSD card reader and am going to try install it on there using MultiMod so I can dual boot and select it only when I have the SD card reader in.

I have Kali installed on my Nexus 5 with a modified ElementalX kernel which is supposed to support the TPLink adapter using OTG.
Going to order the adapter tomorrow and try it out, but it is definitely possible. It just depends on if you can get hold of a kernel that supports it.

I believe even though it's in a Chroot installation, which GruberEXN correctly states can only be used for the internet with 'on-board' data for internet use. It can in fact utilize USB devices.
GruberEXN sounds much more knowledgeable than me in this regard so I'll bow down to his superior knowledge if he says otherwise.

    Thanks so much for this!!!
    Kali Linux is one of the best pentesting Linux distro.

    But, I've get one error triying to install Kali

    When I try to install, in the part that sais "making new disk image" the App fails. I try it changing the directory install... but not working.

    Thanks in advance!!!

    EDIT:
    I think the errors was produced by:
    First, because I hadn't 7 GB of free space
    Second, the filesystem of my external sdcard (fat32) can't support files bigger tan 4 GB.

    Triying again!!!

    whats the use of this ?

    It's a pentest distribution, made for security profissionals or hobbyists who wants to have all hackers tools at hand for penetration testing at servers.

    so with the s 4 hardware what is possible can it go in to mon mode and does it support packet injection

    No, since it's a Chroot installation. It's in a jail, you can't use any connection outside from it apart the internet connection (3g/wifi/2g, etc).

    That's all I want to know before I Flash it
