    Question Qualcomm QCA9377: Monitor mode working but no APs found

    I have recently downloaded Kali 2020.1 on my machine (usb persistence).
    Now though I am able to use Wi-Fi but whenever I want to use monitor mode I am not able to discover any APs while there are many.

    I was able to use monitor mode and airodump-ng on previous versions.

    I tried many solutions but still no luck

    I use airmon-ng for monitor mode
    and airodump-ng for capturing packets

    Optionally, you can also get the firmware files directly from kernel.org. The last commit that still supports monitor mode is from 6/22/2017.

    At the time of writing, the only file that has changed since is "firmware-5.bin", so you can keep the others. You need to delete file "firmware-6.bin", too, and reload the drive (via modprobe, or just reboot) before changes take effect.

    Run the following from a terminal window:

    $ git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...-firmware.git/

    $ cd linux-firmware/ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/

    # Uncomment in case you want to check the log for QCA9377
    #$ git log .

    # The last commit that still supports monitor mode is dd5fba3a56bbb4c4a72576faa19f8bd45fed7ef6
    $ git checkout dd5fba3a56bbb4c4a72576faa19f8bd45fed7ef6

    $ cp firmware-5.bin /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/
    $ rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/firmware-6.bin
