2020.2 nexmon

[rootboy01]

hi @re4son
what time the Nethunter's new version will be done ?
i am waiting especially for angler arm64 nexmon libs, because this device like my device (sony xperia z5 compact ( arm64 and sd810 same)
i patched my firmware from: https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon...eg-ubuntu-1604

my device supporting patch:
https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon...ported-devices

bcm43455 7_45_59_16 Sony Xperia Z5 Compact LineageOS 14.1

so just remaining, the libs..

if i use arm64 angler libs, ( future 2020.2 version)
it can be work in my device? i wonder very much..
thanks.

[re4son]

Soon

How about you create a NetHunter kernel and I promise to finish the new libs by the time you create a merge request?

[rootboy01]

i created already Nethunter kernel and built for my device and it working succesfull, you know
but you said my LineageOS kernel not custom. So you wont accept my merge

[re4son]

Yep, I said NetHunter kernel, not LineageOS kernel - We are not that cheap
We look after our own first, that's keeping us busy enough ;-)

Why don't you following this guide to create a NetHunter kernel? That's should get you going pretty quickly.

[re4son]

What you've done looks like a very time consuming and convoluted way of installing "Kali NetHunter Lite" :.-)

If you don't want additional wifi device support, injection, HID attacks, etc., then just install "Kali NetHunter Lite" and copy your nexmon files across. That would take less than half an hour.

[rootboy01]

i dont have pc, and i go net cafes for pc sir. nowadays there is corona virus ...
maybe you can create nexmon libs right ? because you have pc
also after add 64 bit libs, injections can work right ? ( aireplay-ng -9 wlan0 ) it must say "injections works!"

[re4son]

How about I create that kernel and you help me testing?

[rootboy01]

oww sure sirr you give honor.
here time is 03:55 so i must sleep.
maybe after 10 hours later.
i give you basic preferences:


arch= arm64

los 14.1 = https://github.com/LineageOS/android...l_sony_msm8994

boot = /dev/block/mmcblk0p29

kernel version = 3.10.84

need wlan0 injections work and maybe hid not need for external wifi

[rootboy01]

i used gcc linaro aarch64-linux-gnu latest , this is stable for sony. others giving error.

[rootboy01]

kernel config = arch/arm64/configs/kitakami_suzuran_defconfig

[rootboy01]

sir you will create local.config.example.suzuran right ?

[re4son]

Yep.

This is my standard workflow:

- open "https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_sony_msm8994" in web browser
- Click "Fork"
- Open terminal, cd to build directory, e.g. ~/android
- git clone <remote repo> (e.g. https://github.com/Re4son/android_kernel_sony_msm8994)
- cd android_kernel_oppo_msm8974
- git checkout -b nethunter-7.1
- git clone https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunt...thunter-kernel
- cd kali-nethunter-kernel
- cp local.config.examples/local.config.example.bacon ./local.config
- vi local.config #If you'de like to customize paths
- ./build.sh
- "S"
- "1"
- Choose the device specific defconfig as default config
- Edit kernel config - Only remove "local version", untick "... append version ...", & change hostname to kali
- "2"; build and rebuild with option #3 adding more and more nethunter config items.
- Add one patch after another, build every time with "3" and git commit after every successful build.
- If all configurations and patches applied successfully, do a clean via "0" and a full NetHunter build via "N"
- Git commit of the nethunter_config and kali-nethunter-kernel/local.config, & push everything to the remote repository

[rootboy01]

thanks sir respect.

do you need another info about my device ? (suzuran)
if not i will sleep.
see you after 10 hours sir.

[rootboy01]

@re4son you forked my device's kernel source, thanks https://github.com/Re4son/android_kernel_sony_msm8994

so what about building process ?

[re4son]

@re4son you forked my device's kernel source, thanks https://github.com/Re4son/android_kernel_sony_msm8994

so what about building process ?

Haven't started yet. I'm in the middle of rebuilding my development environment and that'll take another day or two.

[rootboy01]

just boot kali iso sirr
thanks, congrats. i am waiting.
wanna ask any questions about suzuran ?

[rootboy01]

@re4son sir what about the last situation https://github.com/Re4son/android_kernel_sony_msm8994

[re4son]

I'm gonna be out of action for a while while I refresh my environment. It's taking longer than expected - maybe a week or two.

[rootboy01]

ok sir. good luck, keep it up..

[rootboy01]

@re4son thanks for quick edit sir, you rock https://github.com/Re4son/android_ke...r-14.1?files=1
so what you will change in kernel ? can i learn ? regards..

[rootboy01]

@re4son i can see nethunter defconfig. is there another changes ?

[rootboy01]

Also i see you add oreo toolchain but los 14.1 is nougat.
https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunt...xample.suzuran

[re4son]

A few patches.
I followed the kernel build section in the NetHunter documentation, starting with this page

https://www.kali.org/docs/nethunter/...el-1-patching/

and working my way through the next six pages.

[re4son]

Also i see you add oreo toolchain but los 14.1 is nougat.
https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunt...xample.suzuran

It's not really an oreo toolchain. It's an Android toolchain that was released with Oreo to build Oreo and below.

[rootboy01]

oww ok sir i understand you are geniuss
can i ask which patches are you added and how you patching ?
i prefer specially nexmon and hid patches you know
I am grateful for adding my device..

[re4son]

I used the kernel-builder for patching, following the exact steps as listed in the documentation.
The name of the patches I applied are in the commit messages.

I did not apply any Nexmon patches. Nexmon is not part of the kernel and there are no patches to apply. I will, however, add some helper files to the kernel installation zip later.

[rootboy01]

you mean helper files are 'kalililibnexmon' libs right ?

[re4son]

libs, nexutil, and scripts

[rootboy01]

thanks sir
i will ask good question now
how can i reduce kernel wakelocks by editing: https://github.com/Re4son/android_ke...nter_defconfig
kernel wakelocks like: timerfd, PowerManagerService.WakeLock, WifiConnnectivityManagerSchedulePeriodicScan etc..
for powersave..

[rootboy01]

@re4son sir also fix false things: https://github.com/Re4son/android_ke...37bb819f714ad3

edit: ok sir i see cleanup . thanks..

[re4son]

You really don't want to reduce wakelocks by editing the kernel config. Wakelocks are requested by apps and disabling wifi in the kernel to avoid wifi managers requesting a wakelock is not really a suitable approach.

I'd recommend reading these guides to get you started with optimize your battery life:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=1827676
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=1759541

Having said that, the kernel config you've sent me is optimized for performance and not for battery life. If you are after battery life than I better don't use that.

[rootboy01]

@re4son no problem sir, keep it up
i use LKT and Amplify thanks sir.
what time can you submit suzuran with libs into kali-nethunter-devices ?
regards..

[re4son]

hopefully tomorrow

[re4son]

Done:

https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunt...nougat/suzuran

Would you mind testing it, please?

And could you also send me a copy of the original fw_bcmdhd.bin and copy of the nexmon patched fw_bcmdhd.bin, please?

Many thanks

[rootboy01]

i thank you sir, i am testing now: https://cdn-16.anonfile.com/V1TbBdvc...503-171705.png

oww sorry, i removed original fw_bcmdhd you can get it in kernel source? i can upload patched firmware:
https://anonfile.com/J9X9B6veo5/fw_bcmdhd_bin

[rootboy01]

if all is finish, i will notice you sir

[rootboy01]

sir 2020.2 nethunter-project build py file giving error: https://cdn-06.anonfile.com/zfh0Cavf...503-172732.png
i trying master now.

[rootboy01]

sorry its my fault

[rootboy01]

sir you need to edit devices.cfg suzuran add arch = arm64 because build downloads is downloading armhf

[rootboy01]

and sir you need to edit boot = /dev/block/mmcblk0p29

[rootboy01]

@re4son sir it giving bootloop.
your compiled Image.gz-dtb has issues. i removed from suzuran directory and pushed my precompiled image: https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethunt...e_requests/229 and it worked.

[rootboy01]

:cry: it giving /usr/bin/sudo not found error
i think there is an issue in arm64 minimal tar.xz

[rootboy01]

i used gcc linaro aarch64-linux-gnu latest , this is stable for sony. others giving error.

sirrr you need to use linaro gcc..

[re4son]

What do you mean by latest? latest 4.9 release?

[rootboy01]

https://releases.linaro.org/componen...h64-linux-gnu/

this sir.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is not a product of that toolchain:
https://releases.linaro.org/componen...h64-linux-gnu/

Please provide me with a link to the toolchain you would like me to use

[re4son]

I've built kernel ver 1.2 with the linaro toolchain version 5.5 from October 2017.
Please give that a try and let me know how you go.
Thanks

[rootboy01]

oww sir, again bootloop.
i used example_scripts for kernel build.
can you try with these scripts ?
