Prerequisite:

Android Device (Stock unmodified device, no root or custom recovery required)


Installation:

Install the NetHunter-Store app from store.nethunter.com


From the NetHunter Store, install Termux, NetHunter-KeX client, and Hacker’s keyboard Note: The button “install” may not change to “installed” in the store client after installation - just ignore it. Starting termux for the first time may seem stuck while displaying “installing” on some devices - just hit enter.


Open Termux and type:


kali@kali:~$ termux-setup-storage

kali@kali:~$ pkg install wget

kali@kali:~$ wget -O install-nethunter-termux https://offs.ec/2MceZWr

kali@kali:~$ chmod +x install-nethunter-termux

kali@kali:~$ ./install-nethunter-termux

Usage:

Open Termux and type one of the following:


Command To

nethunter start Kali NetHunter command line interface

nethunter kex passwd configure the KeX password (only needed before 1st use)

nethunter kex & start Kali NetHunter Desktop Experience user sessions

nethunter kex stop stop Kali NetHunter Desktop Experience

nethunter <command> run in NetHunter environment

nethunter -r start Kali NetHunter cli as root

nethunter -r kex passwd configure the KeX password for root

nethunter -r kex & start Kali NetHunter Desktop Experience as root

nethunter -r kex stop stop Kali NetHunter Desktop Experience root sessions

nethunter -r kex kill Kill all KeX sessions

nethunter -r <command> run <command> in NetHunter environment as root

Note: The command nethunter can be abbreviated to nh. Tip: If you run kex in the background (&) without having set a password, bring it back to the foreground first when prompted to enter the password, i.e. via fg <job id> - you can later send it to the background again via Ctrl + z and bg <job id>


To use KeX, start the KeX client, enter your password and click connect Tip: For a better viewing experience, enter a custom resolution under “Advanced Settings” in the KeX Client


 


NetHunter Editions:

Please refer to this table for a comparison of the different NetHunter editions.


Tips:

Run sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y first thing after installation to update Kali. If you have plenty of storage space available you might want to run sudo apt install -y kali-linux-default as well.

All of the penetration testing tools should work but some might have restrictions, e.g. metasploit works but doesn’t have database support. If you discover any tools that don’t work, please post it in our forums.

Some utilities like “top” won’t run on unrooted phones.

Non-root users still have root access in the chroot. That’s a proot thing. Just be aware of that.

Galaxy phone’s may prevent non-root users from using sudo. Just use “su -c” instead.

Perform regular backups of your rootfs by stopping all nethunter sessions and typing the following in a termux session: tar -cJf kali-arm64.tar.xz kali-arm64 && mv kali-arm64.tar.xz storage/downloads That will put the backup in your Android download folder. Note: on older devices, change “arm64” to “armhf”
