I present to you: Kali NetHunter for the Galaxy Tab S4 (gts4llte & gts4wifi)

Kali NetHunter is an Android ROM overlay that turns an ordinary phone into the ultimate Mobile Penetration Testing Platform.
The overlay includes a custom kernel, a Kali Linux chroot, an accompanying Android application, which allows for easier interaction with various security tools and attacks, as well as a client to the Kali NetHunter App Store.
Beyond the penetration testing tools arsenal within Kali Linux and the Kali NetHunter App Store, NetHunter also supports several additional classes, such as HID Keyboard Attacks, BadUSB attacks, Evil AP MANA attacks, 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.

For those who have tired this, is this basically another ROM? I want to try it and I guess I should make a backup first...

KN a set of gnu/linux tools for the following users: pentesters (network penetration testers), security professionals, network administrators, ethical hackers. KN is a package which integrates with the os (in this case android 8 oreo) to provide interfaces with the surrounding networks that are not otherwise available to ordinary users. basically, if you have to ask "is this rom for me?" its not for you.

Well I just gave it a try, nothing broken after install :) I tried to monitor with wlan0 but I guess monitor mode is not supported on our device?

I have had nethunter 2019.2 release on my tab s4 for a while now and monitor mode is buggy. iwconfig does not show the card in monitor mode but it appears that it is infact in monitor mode after all with limited functionality (i.e. can't change wireless channels). For instance a certain tool i use only runs if i add -i wlan1mon after it, if i run it without that it can't find the card in monitor mode.

Don't know if this is a known issue on the tab s4?

(EDIT - If you are talking about the internal wireless card wlan0 then yes it does not support monitor mode but i have issues even with external ones :) )

What's the status with this? I'm interested in buying this tablet to try out kali nethunter but it will be hard finding a tablet with the shipped android 8 since it has 10 now and there hasn't been an update in over a year.
Is Nethunter itself dead?

I bought a Samsung Tab S4 tablet specifically to try Kali Nethunter on a tablet. After much frustration, cannot downgrade to android 8, and cannot get Nethunter to work with Android 10. I hope Nethunter development is not dead for Samsung Tab S4 or android 10- anyway to donate to encourage development?

Hi all,

I’m having Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 which is running Oreo (8.1.0) and Successfully installed Nethunter referring to this post, had to update apt and install relink firmware to get work external Wi-Fi adapter (panda PAU09). Injection with aireplay-ng works fine. Airodump-ng works partially and cannot show which clients connected to which bssid, cannot detect 5GHz networks.

Reason most likely SELinux as I see many denied logs in case of airodump-ng.

05-31 17:48:36.315 622 622 E audit : type=1400
audit(1654004916.294:1027): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=15414 comm="airodump-ng" path="socket:[185270]" dev="sockfs" ino=185270
ioctlcmd=8933 scontext=u:r:magisk:s0 tcontext=u:r:magisk:s0 tclass=unix_dgram_socket permissive=1 SEPF_SM-T835_8.1.0_0007 unfiltered

I added custom rules for this so it is permissive=1 but still denied.

/sbin/supolicy --live "allow * * unix_dgram_socket { ioctl read write create getattr setattr lock append map bind connect getopt setopt shutdown sendto }"
'/sbin/supolicy --live "allow * * udp_socket { ioctl read write create getattr setattr lock relabelfrom relabelto append map bind connect listen accept getopt setopt shutdown recvfrom sendto name_bind node_bind }"

However, according to audit2allow and audit2why they are in place but ineffective due to some permanent rules.
Can anyone give me a solution either disable SELinux or add a rule for the “unix_dgram_socket” please?

Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab S4
Android : Oreo (8.1.0)
Kernel version: 4.4.177-re4son-lte-0.99.24-1
