Dear Security Experts
I've purchased a Nexus 9 and would love to get Nethunter installed and working on it correctly without breaking the device.
From what I have seen online there aren't too many guides, and there seems to be a number of issues / reboot loops etc with what I have seen.
Would be grateful for any help and advice, in fact I'm even happy to pay an experienced consultant to help me with this.
Cheers
Musto
Nexus 9....that's flounder I take it.
STEP 1: UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE
Unlocking your device will typically wipe everything off your phone. Back up your data! (copying stuff off your internal storage to a computer is also advised in case anything goes wrong)
If your device is locked, you read this article to learn how to back up your data: http://android.stackexchange.com/que...rooted-devices
(preferably use the adb backup method)
To unlock your device (applies to all Nexus devices): https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-un...s-5-bootloader
STEP 2: STAYING UP TO DATE
If you want a bug-free install, I would advise updating to your latest stock ROM.
At the moment, this appears to be: 6.0.1 (MMB29S)
https://developers.google.com/androi...hl=en#volantis
If your device has LTE, please flash voltanisg, otherwise flash volantis.
The .tgz can be extracted, giving you a few files. flash-all.bat will flash the entire firmware to your device, assuming you set your tools up properly from step 1.
Ensure that you can boot and use your system without issues before proceeding to the next step!
STEP 3: INSTALL A CUSTOM RECOVERY
You will need to install TWRP. -> https://twrp.me/devices/htcnexus9.html
There are instructions on the linked page. You use the same tool you used in the unlock step.
STEP 4: BACK UP - AGAIN!
Your new custom recovery, TWRP, allows you to back up and restore your device with ease.
You probably want to create another backup if you like where you are already, and want the option to return to a system free of root or NetHunter.
Use the large buttons in TWRP interface to navigate and back up your system, data, and boot partition with ease.
Since TWRP is on its own recovery partition, it should be accessible no matter how bad your system gets messed up.
STEP 5: FLASH KALI NETHUNTER
You can download the latest (nightly) version of the Kali NetHunter installer here: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...nate-installer
(please read the thread, the instructions and cautions are there)
Good luck!
If you run into any issues, such as reboot loops like you've mentioned, please join us in IRC. #nethunter on freenode
We will do what we can do resolve your issues, as our goal is to make NetHunter stable on all supported devices.
PS. no need to pay me :P
Hey Jcadduono,
I've been trying to install Nethunter 3.0 on my Nexus 9 as well but have had no luck. I'm on the latest firmware or was the latest since yesterday (MMB29S). Now MMB29R is out, so I'm assuming everyone will be updating to that.
First of all, I was on Stock and Rooted to prepare for the Nethunter installation. However, I read that you needed to Un-Root if you're using a Systemless Root since Nethunter doesn't play well with Systemless. So I flashed back to Stock Marshmallow and installed the latest TWRP 2.8.7.1 for the Tablet.
After flashing the Custom Recovery, I tried installing Nethunter in 3 different ways. I flashed the Official Nethunter 3.0 download and that didn't work. I also tried downloading the latest nightly and using the Beta Alternate Installer with and without the chroot-full zip. All 3 ways get the tablet stuck at the Kali Boot Screen and force me to flash back to stock.
There has to be something I'm doing wrong but I don't know what is causing Nethunter to not boot up. Is it something to do with not having a System Root beforehand or Busybox not being installed? I don't see busybox needed in the install instructions anymore since it's already included with Nethunter. Are there any other suggestions you can give or think of that could be causing this issue?
Once I get this working, I would like to create a thread on the Forums so other Nexus 9 owners don't run into the same problem.
return to stock (and twrp) where you can boot fine. (make sure you can boot fine!) then flash in twrp:Quote:

before booting, but after flashing, use copy log to sd in twrp advanced options. you will need this log to give to me in case it doesnt boot!
if it boots, awesome. move on to next step, otherwise get me the log. :)
--next step--
go back into twrp and flash:
https://idlekernel.com/nethunter/nig...60202-2121.zip
that will install the rest of nethunter. you might want to get another log just in case.
Awesome, That Worked! I used the latest Stock Image MMB29R and TWRP 2.8.7.1Quote:

Normal Boot works fine. The device is Rooted and has Nethunter installed.
Here are the 2 logs in case anything went wrong:
Nexus 9 Kernel
Chroot-Full
With TWRP broken, is there another way to update Nethunter without starting the entire process over?
Also, is there a way to get rid of the Corrupt Message on Boot?
You will probably have to fastboot flash your stock system and boot partitions, then flash twrp again.
So you can't boot after flashing just the kernel zip? you never made that clear
try flashing just the generic zip after you have a working boot again, skip device specific. if generic works but kernel installer doesn't boot, then we have a kernel issue we need to fix on our end.
After I flashed Stock and TWRP, I made sure everything booted up before flashing the kernel.
Then I flashed the kernel and rebooted. I copied the log just in case but the tablet booted up fine.
I then loaded back into TWRP, installed the chroot-full.zip, and grabbed another log just before rebooting.
The tablet booted into Nethunter after the chroot zip, but doesn't allow me to get back into TWRP.
I also get that "Your Device is Corrupt" error on every reboot, which I thought had something to do with the
boot.img not being patched properly? It starts after installing TWRP. I know flashing a custom kernel
or rooting the device usually fixes this, but the message still remains. While it's really not a big deal,
I would like to get rid of it.
jcaddunno: I also need help with my Nexus 9 (LTE running MMB29R). You reached out to me on IRC 2 days ago, and you gave me these 2 files (update-nethunter-generic-armhf-kalifs-full-rolling-3.0.5-20160224-0204 &
kernel-nethunter-flounder-marshmallow-3.0.5-20160224-0204)...If i'm using LRT, where should those files go, I put the first one in the "/nethunter-LRT/kaliNethunter". however I was unsure where to put the other zip "kernel-nethunter-flounder-marshmallow-3.0.5-20160224-0204". I am starting to think they should both be in that same folder...but I wanted to reach out to y'all for reassurance.
Here is what I did from terminal. (Also, the Nexus 9 does not fully reboots after some of these steps...It stays on the Unlooked Menu waiting for me to choose (HBOOT, Restart, Restart Fastboot, etc...) Thank You

@Medic, you don't need to use the LRT option. If you're already rooted and have TWRP set up, just get those 2 files JC linked and flash them via TWRP. It's an easy to use GUI, I'm sure you will understand how to use it :)
My advise to you is to skip nethunter 3. Use Nethunter 2 and lolipop 5.01. I dont know a single person who has been able to make nethunter 3 work on a nexus 9 using marshmellow. I have not yet tried nethunter 3 on lolipop though. Might work.Quote:

Here were my steps:
1). Boot into TWRP
2). Flash Kernel only (Wipe Cache & Dalvik Optional)
3). Reboot (Make sure Tablet boots up, then reboot into TWRP)
4). Flash Full Chroot (Wipe Cache & Dalvik Optional)
5). Reboot
Everything seems to be working. I still can't get back into TWRP after flashing the full chroot, but I am happy to say that the Corrupt Message on Boot is no longer there!
Yes, this worked. I have a Nexus 9 LTE 32 GB. I did not install AOSP, nor TWRP. I started with a rooted, backed-up tablet and did the above (with the latest nightly available on the server).Quote:
