Hi,
I've been trying for about 10 hours now to install Nethunter and I start giving up. Here are the infos you need:
The link to the exact zip you downloaded:
Unfortunately I can't post complete links, due to permissions, but this is the structure of the nightly build site of kali nethunter.

Your device model: Samsung Galaxy S7 - G930F
The name of the ROM you're flashing it on: Stock ROM of Samsung (G930FXXU1DQHY and CSC G930FDDX1DQHY. The operating system of this firmware is Android 7.0 , with build date Tue, 22 Aug 2017 07:31:48 +0000. Security patch date is 2017-08-01, with changelist 11104523) as well as LineageOS (lineage-14.1-20190224-nightly-herolte-signed.zip )
The version and build date of the ROM you're flashing it on --> Stock ROM see above, Lineage v. 4.1, from 2019-02-24
A complete description of your problem:
So I tried different variations. First I installed TWRP. Then I tried flashing the kernel, which wasn't working, because my data partition wasn't mounted. Thats I wiped the data partition (like in the tutorial). After that, flashing the kernel worked. After flashing, I tried starting the phone in order to run the setup again, without success. When starting, I'm stuck after the Screen with "Samsung Galaxy S7". The screen appears, it takes one or two seconds, phone reboots, same thing again, phone reboots and then it boots to TWRP. Then I tried installing Lineage. After doing so, I was able to initialize the phone. Then I tried booting back to TWRP in order to install the kalifs zip. When I both times used the newest version from 2019 (which I would prefer), this didn't work. There have been various errors. When trying to use the "old" version from 2016 (so 3.15.2), the installation proceeded and I was able to boot the device.
Then, I tried running the Nethunter App. It told me, that I need to install root, as well as busybox. But no matter what I did, I couldn't get pass this screen. I tried using CF Autoroot to root the device, I tried setting it in Lineage itself under the "Allow root" option. Therefore, I had to flash the Lineage SU addon zip through TWRP. Both not changing anything in the app. I tried manually downloading the APK of Busybox. One time, installation was working, one time it told me it needs root, even though SuperSU was installed. However, even when installation worked, there was still the screen telling me to enable root and install busybox before proceeding.
I'm really running out of ideas after so many hours and possibilities.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong or something else, I can try? Any help appreciated!...
Regards
