NH Terminal doesn't enter into kali Shell

[xTahseen]

Issue: I installed Nethunter on my device but when I open the Nethunter terminal and choose kali it just Close the terminal if I start it and choose Supersu and by entering bootkali then login here i find option root@kali

What is the matter how I can't directly enter into kali shell ? And also gui of nethunter is showing just white screen how can I fix this ?

I had a problem after installing NetHunter latest version when you open the terminal the error "App stopped", this error can be corrected by removing the terminal and put the terminal from version 3.15.4. Term-nh-3.15.4.zip

go to the folder /data/local/nhsystem n delete kali-armhf then go nethunter app there should be an option install chroot do install then select minimal then download your files

I know this comment is closed, but I'm new to Kali NH and u also can't seem to get terminal to work. I should say it opens I think into the Kali command but no where do I see root@kali: /#

All I see is : /# without root@kali

But when I open terminal and am promoted to click on Kali or Androidsu, I chose Kali and it opens. I just don't see root@kali

Try go into NH term and normal shell, not Kali Shell. Type "su" and "bootkali" result?

Do you have the latest Nethunter Terminal + Nethunter app? Sometimes also been resolved if I reinstalled them, of course if the above commands work, which @kimocoder said

I have a Google pixel 2 XL. I use the Kali nethunter download for the OnePlus one CM 12.1 zip file. Everything else seems to be working well. As far as the versions of the nethunter terminal app the version I have is 1.0.0 and the nethunter app version is 3.0

I tried the command SU and bootKali. I didn't put parentheses around that, I didn't think I was supposed to. I did also try what Prodject said with the different version of termNH but no luck there either. I'm sorry if these are dumb questions. Like I said I am brand new to this stuff and I just want to learn a little bit more about Kali nethunter and Kali Linux. I thought I would start by putting it on my phone. I should say that I have an Nvidia shield k1 tablet and all is working perfectly well on there. My terminal app fires up with no problems. I am just trying to get it on my phone which is running Android 9.0. I've heard some say that the version of Android is the problem but I just am still trying to figure this out.

I know this thread is closed. Should I open a new one regarding this issue?

Oneplus One? You should have downloaded a generic nethunter kalifs installer + kernel installer to make your device working. I was assuming you have those. Oneplus kalifs installer has oneplus one kernel, it's a miracle that your phone boots with that to be honest. If you reinstall your OS, and apply initial android setup, install a generic kalifs. That will leave the original kernel on your device, if you do not require wireless injection + HID, CDROM (DriveDroid) compatibility. Generic kalifs https://build.nethunter.com/nightly/2019.03-13-0514/nethunter-generic-arm64-kalifs-full-rolling-2019.03-13-0514.zip

Otherwise, if you need them: You might have to build your own kernel, as it does not exist for your device. (you can look up patched kernels here: https://github.com/offensive-security/nethunter-devices/blob/master/kernels.txt ) Also you can try to use the same HID, CDROM patches from this Pixel C patched kernel:

https://github.com/jcadduono/android_kernel_google_chromeos/commit/d1b9e77f408ebc90f561647257d16c9ceacd9e3a

https://github.com/jcadduono/android_kernel_google_chromeos/commit/1bd806b1a67ca38f0b8ea81605ddef13baf05a35

To apply to the oirignal kernel source below: Kernel source:

git clone https://github.com/kerneltoast/android_kernel_google_wahoo.git -b 9.0.0-sultan

By following the tutorials:

https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki/Porting-Nethunter

https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki/Modifying-the-Kernel

Then putting the kernel (z)Image(.dtb) + modules into the nethunter-installer, and making an installer zip for your device.

git clone https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter.git

I can see your case is resolved in another issue, but I wil leave the above instructions, might help others. Still useful if you have any problems after using Oneplus One installer though

the command to enter the Kali environment from an android terminal is actually su 0 bootkali_login I highly recommend using JuiceSSH's local terminal. It's one of the best functioning terminals available on Android with full ncurses support.

@HyperThred I would not open a thread since that is an extremely old version of Kali NetHunter and most of its issues are already fixed. If you have an unsupported device and wish to use just the rootfs, app, etc. and not have full kernel support then I recommend a generic arm64 zip. Here, try https://build.nethunter.com/nightly/2019.03-13-0514/nethunter-generic-arm64-kalifs-full-rolling-2019.03-13-0514.zip

On Pie devices you may need to open the zip and copy the apk files onto your sdcard and install the apps manually due to a change in how Android allows app installation.
