The Kali NetHunter is an Android ROM overlay that includes a robust Mobile Penetration Testing Platform. The overlay includes a custom kernel, a Kali Linux chroot, and an accompanying Android application, which allows for easier interaction with various security tools and attacks. Beyond the penetration testing tools arsenal within Kali Linux, NetHunter also supports several additional classes, such as HID Keyboard Attacks, BadUSB attacks, [URL="https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki/NetHunter-Mana-Wireless"]Evil AP MANA attacks[/URL], and much more. For more information about the moving parts that make up NetHunter, check out our NetHunter Components page. NetHunter is an open-source project developed by Offensive Security and the community.



FIRST THINGS FIRST, SERIOUSLY:
Your warranty was void as soon as you unlocked your bootloader.
Although Kali Nethunter should be safe to use, I am not responsible for whatever happens to your device, router, or whatever networking infrastructure because of YOU misusing the available facilities of Kali.
Remember that while Kali can be absolutely safe, if you handle root access improperly, no one will help you.
Make sure you read all of the info here and have some basic knowledge about networking, kernels and Linux/Unix.
Even if you're able to find a vulnerability on a different host (often called victim) , don't misuse the advantage you have.
Report the issue to the device's owner and the OEM. Do not complain if the attacks aren't working. Security has been ramping up ever since the wikileaks incident and the Edward Snowden thing
.



FEATURES:



Kali NetHunter Application

Home Screen - General information panel, network interfaces and HID device status.
Kali Chroot Manager - For managing chroot metapackage installations.
Check App Update - For checking Kali NetHunter Android App updates.
Kali Services - Start / stop various chrooted services. Enable or disable them at boot time.
Custom Commands - Add your own custom commands and functions to the launcher.
MAC Changer - Change your Wi-Fi MAC address (only on certain devices)
VNC Manager - Set up an instant VNC session with your Kali chroot.
HID Attacks - Various HID attacks, Teensy style.
DuckHunter HID - Rubber Ducky style HID attacks
BadUSB MITM Attack - Nuff said.
MANA Wireless Toolkit - Setup a malicious Access Point at the click of a button.
MITM Framework - Inject binary backdoors into downloaded executables on the fly.
NMap Scan - Quick Nmap scanner interface.
Metasploit Payload Generator - Generating Metasploit payloads on the fly.
Searchsploit - Easy searching for exploits in the Exploit-DB.

3rd Party Android Applications (WIP)

NetHunter Terminal Application
DriveDroid
USB Keyboard
Shodan
Router Keygen
cSploit

Remember that there might be many other exploits and attack features available online, the ones mentioned above are officially documented by Kali. Secondly, not much support will be possible regarding the attacking since not everyone will have the same opportunities.

Just open inbuilt terminal of lineage os and type
"su" grant the su permission and type"bootkali" now you must get something like [email protected]#~ and now you can close this and open your nethunter terminal it should work perfectly
