Hello All,
First, if any of the devs read this, I want to thank you for porting all of this over to the nexus tablets. It's really a great learning tool and I love the portability. Great work and I hope to see it be continually built upon.

Second, I have a couple questions about the home-screen/terminal setup.

Are there any terminal widgets that would allow us to interact with the kali shell from the home screen?
If not, does anyone know the command(s) that you need to type in the terminal to access the kali chroot shell? (So I can just make it a shortcut straight there?)
Bonus Question: Is there any documentation listing what the commands are which are shortcutted in the Kali Nethunter Menu/App that they pre-installed?


Thanks for the insight guys and I hope this community continues to grow!

Hi Rangergeek,

I suggest visiting: https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/tree/master/flash/system/xbin and https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/tree/master/flash/system/bin

When Nethunter is installed it copies those files to the xbin/bin folder. You could make your own shortcuts like the ones in xbin but you would need to mount rewrite on /system on your device.

As far as making a widget you would want to download or try an application that can build shortcuts for you. Maybe something like: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.waswas.quickterminal

I can't speak for any specific software though so you will have to find one that works for you. The shortcuts in menu app is sourced here: https://github.com/binkybear/Kali_Launcher_Android_App/blob/3126be75b125d87203cdcf656172f78224bcbd08/app/src/main/java/app/kali/com/kalilauncher/LaunchKali.java.

It's all open source so feel free to poke around.

You can use juiceSSH
To ssh into a kali shell

But you have to pay to recieve the widget

For number 2, you can do the following:
* Longpress homescreen and choose shortcut -> Terminal shortcut
* Enter /bin/sh in the command field
* Enter su -c bootkali in the arguments field
* Press OK.

That'll create a shortcut on the home screen to kali chroot shell.
Best Regards,
