plus all the commits needed to run kali-linux on your device and more. see my commits on github for more info


prerequisites:: vbmeta must have disabled verity and verification.

To do this pull a vbmeta.img from stock image zip or from a custom rom zip. back up your device as you will need to factory data reset your device after doing so

connect your device to your pc and open a terminal window and run

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification
fastboot -w

Works on any Android 13 sec patch

Flash using FKM (preferred)

I dont know what google did to the build system but

BUILD_CONFIG=private/gs-google/build.config.cloudripper

no longer works. it gets all the way past lto on the vmlinux and fatals making the gki modules at edgetpu/jainero complaining about it not being a git repo. i removed .git folder and stil it failed

i tried different build commands but the only one that would finish was

BUILD_CONFIG=build.config build/build.sh

but upon further inspection i noticed in the .config only gs101 configs were enabled and none of the gs201 configs.

Im hoping one of the seniors has a clue as to what im doing wrong and how to get the kernel to boot both p6 and p7 devices

as it stands i ended up moving my gs-google kernel source to a qpr1 build system and everything built fine using the cloudripper config.

wifi monitor mode can be enabled using wifi sniffer and special firmware thats included in the android 14 developers previews.

we pulled whats needed from the vendor image and i created a magisk module for you to flash with the firmware binaries and .rc files.

i have included the zip in this post but you can get it from my github as well

GitHub - Biohazardousrom/nh-magisk-wifi-firmware-gs101-gs201: This Magisk module adds the required firmware for external wireless adapters to be used with NetHunter.

im trying to get sweep to sleep to compile and ive run the commits in entirety and it still errors for implicit declarations.

im attaching the log in a zip (since i cant attach .txt files) with the errors if anyone knows to fix this please let me know

 

[jutochoppa]

Does this support external wifi adapters? I have the kernel and magisk wifi module installed. My wifi adapter chipset is RTL8812BU . lsusb lists it's info but in the driver section says driver=(none)

 

[Duhjoker]

i think i know whats going on. some kali linux programs and android apks as well look to the /proc/config.gz for the proper configs in order to use them

the problem is that when you make all of the kernel configs needed by kali in order to use everything it creates a system warning at every boot due to a frameworks trigger that also checks /proc/config.gz

if the trigger checks it and it sees that it doesnt match you get the warning.

to fix this we use a commit that packages the original defconfig as the /proc/config.gz

see this commit::

kernel: Use the stock config for /proc/config.gz · Biohazardousrom/[email protected]

Userspace reads /proc/config.gz and spits out an error message after boot finishes when it doesn't like the kernel's configuration. In order to preserve our freedom to customize the kernel ...

github.com

What i can do is make two different kernels. keep the current kernel as is for those that want the kali flex and dont need all the functionality and recompile the kernel with that commit reverted for the power users that need it.

But be warned every time you reboot you will get a system warning. it wont effect anything its just annoying

Brilliant idea! That would be wonderful.

Change log: 03/27/23

v1.1
removed non working uci functions
added some tcp optimisations
some other optimisations see branch qpr2-0327

Change log: 03/27/23
v1.1 full
same as above
removed the commit to hide the actual /proc/config.gz

if you use the full version you will receive a system warning at boot. this is an expected annoyance and non harmful but will give you full function of the kernel and all available drivers


if you try an adapter and it still doesnt work check my defconfig at the bottom for your drivers and see if its already configged if not let me know and ill look for the missing drivers.

make sure you have the proper firmware installed for your adapters chipset. this can be done using apt in kali linux or by installing the magisk module from previous post

the kernel folder will have a special folder called kali-full-config and the zip will have full in its name

i also updated the link in op. just navigate to correct folder

 

[jutochoppa]

Thank you for your work. I will try sometime today.

 

[jutochoppa]

The kernel flashes successfully. I did not seem to get a warning message. The adapter does not work still sadly. I init and synced QPR1 build system and cloned your repo in to gs-google source. looked up the driver by device ID (https://linux-hardware.org/?id=usb:2001-331c) and it seems the driver is in your source. I ran the BUILD_CONFIG=private/gs-google/build.config.cloudripper build/build.sh command.
It seems to build fine. I'm just not sure what to look for in the /out to make an AnyKernel.
This is my first time lol.

 

[Duhjoker]

look in the android-kernel/out/android13-gs-pixel-5.10/dist directory

there you will find the
boot.img
dtbo.img
vendor_dlkm.img
vendor_kernel_boot.img

are you sure you flashed the right .zip it should have full in its name

also do you have the adapters firmware installed

my output was different lol. i'll have to look into it more.
Anyway.. I did not get that error. I flashed the "Mad-Kali-MaxHunter-pantah-tm-qpr2-v1.1-full.zip". I also flashed the magisk firmware module on your github that inlcudes support for "RTL8821/12* (AE/AU/BU)" in the readme. # usb-devices still says there isn't a driver. weird. i guess i'll try to figure out how to get a driver for it.
-I will add that I have StagOS-cheetah-13.0-OFFICIAL-GApps-20230224-2018-update ROM

Thanks for your help.

 

[Duhjoker]

i updated the nh wireless firmware. i got down to finding the vendor.img for A14 development build using the master android branch.

looked like it was missing some firmware blobs for gs201 and i added all the fw_bcmhd files so hopefully this will help with wifi_sniffer

 

[Duhjoker]

This is how i get wifi_sniffer to work. first download and install the nethunter firmware magisk module. check permissions of the binaries.

next reboot your device and disable wifi and data. This must be done in order to restart the wlan in monitor mode

now open terminal emulator and either type or copy and paste the commands below

in su shell

su

# Set bandwidth to 160 MHz for sniffing on 2.4 GHz

setprop persist.vendor.wifi.sniffer.bandwidth 160

# Set 2.4GHz band

setprop persist.vendor.wifi.sniffer.freq 2412

# start wifi sniffer

wifi_sniffer start

#tcp dump to .pcap file

tcpdump -i radiotap0 type mgt subtype beacon -w /data/beacon-capture.pcap

 

[TacoDeMuerte]

Wifi_sniffer is only if you have AOSP, right? Or does it work on other ROMs?

 

[Duhjoker]

should work on any rom. im currently on aicp and it works

 

[AndroidAddict420]

Thank you for building a Cheetah Nethunter Kernel

 

[f3tal3rr0r]

I was able to get it running on stock rom.

see commits for branch QPR2-0411 for more info

Change log : Mad-Kali-MaxHunter-full

same as above but i changed the version from full to EX, honestly because it sounds better

@Duhjoker

Hey man, why don't you cross-post this in the P7P forum if you're building for Cheetah and Panther?? I just wandered in here, the P7 forum just for the heck of it. I doubt many other guys do the same thing and like me, didn't know this kernel even existed
