External Wifi card not detected Nexus 7 2013

[byt3bl33d3r]

Hi guys! I just compiled from source and flashed my Nexus 7 2013.. everything works except for the external wireless card... I'm using the TP-LINK TL-WN722N dmesg says USB in low power mode don't know if that has anything to do with it

@mrhand1113 - I just tried the kernel I posted for the N7 2013 running lollipop 5.1 and it flashed. I didn't check the zip file signature check (just the defaults). I'm running TWRP 2.8.6.

Ok. I believe I am running on 5.0, will update and retry On May 6, 2015 5:23 PM, "binkybear" notifications@github.com wrote:

@binkybear After updating to android lolipop 5.1.1 yesterday, I redownloaded net hunter and reflashed it along with the kernel you provided and I am still getting stuck with the no such device error. I tried running wifite before I flashed the modified kernel and I also had the same error. I was before on lolipop 5.0 but I now am updated to 5.1.1 and still stuck at the error.

@mrhand113 - Can you get me a dmesg when you plug/unplug externel wifi/device. If you could upload it to pastebin or something similar that would be handy. I don't need a whole dmesg, just from the time you plug in device.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge, could you elaborate what you mean by a "dmesg"? On May 8, 2015 5:17 PM, "binkybear" notifications@github.com wrote:

From terminal on device type:

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesglog.txt

It can provide error msgs.

@binkybear when I try to run the command it comes back with the following problem. I have tried running sudo with the command but end up getting "command not found" .

I am having similar issues as above. While I am not seeing errors when I run Wifite, it does not recognize any WIFI adapters connected through the OTG cable. I can bring them up and down through a terminal via ifconfig as wlan 0 or 1 (shows as wlan0 if connected before boot and wlan1 if connected after). iwconfig will only recognize the internal wifi adapter, which I thought was interesting. Airmon-ng does not see them either. I have tried the following wifi adapters with multiple otg cables:

TL-WN821N SMCWUSB-N2 WNA1000 AWUS036H

I'm no expert, but here's what I am running...I am running a Nexus 7 2013 WIFI with 5.02 operating system and 1.2 nethunter. One thing that I should note is the root methods described on the website did not work. I was able to unlock the boot loader, but the final step would not root the phone. TWRP would load up and show a bunch of mount errors. It seems that several people with this device had the same issues and ultimately used a different image loaded through the ADB terminal to get it up before installing nethunter from a zip. Could be nothing, or could be part of the problem with the wifi cards. Also, the Nexus reboots when the wifi adapter is removed, regardless of it's ifconfig state. Bringing it down (ifconfig wlan1 down) first does not matter. I did notice that the android will bring it back up and connect to saved networks with it even after I brought it down with ifconfig.

Nethunter is a great product. Hopefully we'll figure out how to get wifi working with the Nexus 7 2013. It's the perfect size and speed for this platform. Looking forward to using it on wfi audits.

@HTCnexus7 - Can you go into settings > about and tell me the name of the kernel version. (If it says google that a problem)

[HTCnexus7]

3.1.10-gle42d16 android-build@vpbs1.mtv.corp.google.com #1 Tryed to install elementalX with twrp but nothing changed

[binkybear]

Thats google's kernel so you should try reflashing the kernel. You can download an older/working kernel here: http://photonicgeek.me/NetHunter/Kernels/grouper-tilapia/Kernel-groupertilapia-kitkat-12042014.zip

Go into recovery and just install the zip file and it should be fine.

Also, i'm closing this issue for the 2013 wifi not working as it seems to have gotten out of hand/scope.
