Not entirely sure, I only followed the instructions in the OP in terminal emulator.

I'm thinking it's because I tried to change the busybox and Leedroid is already V19, silly of me I guess.

I tried going into Titanium Backup, it said it had lost root access so I figured a simple reboot might help. Little did I know my phone wouldn't wake up.

Hopefully a wipe and a flash will fix it. If not I can be part of your disclaimer that you really should write lol

On my Desire Z, it all works like a charm without any issues (so far).

However, I am quite the linux noob (having only dabbled in Ubuntu, Mint and the likes), so I'm kinda stuck in BackTrack. The opening post mentioned Aptitude, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

If anybody can point me in the right direction it would be very helpful. If I'm just being really stupid, feel free to ignore me.

The wipe will almost certainly fix it. Bricking your phone from the inside is nearly impossible to pull off, so you'll probably be fine.

Great. Here's something you might want as well. Bash 4.1 for Android. You can grab it from the Team Komin SVN server at GoogleCode. http://teamkomin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/system/xbin/ This helps external scripting out of the chroot environment.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdamOutler:
Chrooted environments are like virtual machines. The hardware is abstracted. ypu wont have wireless only ethernet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shadyr25:
This is absolutely amazing, got it up and running with no problems whatsoever, excluding download, overall setup took around 5mins. I used an app called terminal emulator free from market. I have a 32gb sd with ext3 partition of 1gb class 10. Works flawlessly on my htc hd2. The files were downloaded and extracted on the hd2 itself without a use for PC. Im also using the hyperdroid rom which by far i think is the best rom so far from experience. Just thought this might help someone out there. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:
Most of the wireless stuff will never work while it is running in a vnc/chroot. The tools will all work except the wireless. Also most of the wifi cards in phones and tablets do not support packet injection, etc.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shadyr25:
What do you mean by wireless stuff will never work? Coz my wireless works just fine. I'm able browse the internet on it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AgentFour20:
Wireless is not the same as your 3g/4g which is what you are using when browsing. Try scanning for a wireless network then tell me it works. If somehow you did get it to work please tell us how.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:
you can do it from android but the wifi tools for backtrack wont. They are not even included by default. Like aircrack-ng, etc.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dean234:
Working on my HD2 quite nicely, have even VNC'd into it from my home PC and had a play!!!!

Tried installing aircrackng but it throws up a few errors, looks as if some files are missing in this distro??

Also, all i did to get it going after i coppied it to my SD card was

#su

#cd sdcard

#cd bt5

#sh bt

Extremely easy to run it in my Desire HD (i am using CyanogenMod7 7.0.3)

Regards, D_d
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:
its missing files, drivers and libraries for wireless tools. its because

1) most phones/tablets cant do monitor mode

2) its running as a chroot so backtrack only has access to what android proves to it.

3) the devs most likely did not put any of the code in the drivers for injection, etc.

backtrack does not have access to the hardware on the phone directly. It must ALL go through android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] javip:
working nicely on my t-mo hd2 with Hyperdroid v12.

working nicely on my Barnes and Noble Nook Color with phiremod 6.1 emmc.

there is one small issue that is probably easy to fix. the screen resolution on the nook color is displaying backtrack5 in a small area on the screen.

attached is a small representation.

running at 24bpp the display was quite responsive or as responsive as vnc can be.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shadyr25:
My 3g 4g data connection were disabled from the very beginning, I never use it coz the signal here is 2g standards. So I'm connected through wireless connection only and it seems to work like a charm. I didn't do anything to get it to work, it was just working. I'm using hyperdroid v2.0.1 if that helps :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lorezz:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:

Works perfectly on my HTC Desire running MIUI 1.4.22 (quite old version, too lazy to update:cool:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:
yes it would be... but there is a few things to take into account here.

this can not be done via android easily because of the chroot env/restrictions.

The kernel driver must be re-written to support monitor mode.

bt5 must be native on the phone/tablet you want this to work on.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdamOutler:
^^ right. To put it in xda terms.... You must run backtrack as your ROM. Porting it would be impossible on all platforms. Because of the processing requierments and lack of mobility, backtrack is not useful currently on any platform. However if you are looking to sniff packets we host tcpdump on the Team Komin svn server under /trunk/system/xbin

Remove this from the list. voodoo lagfix = running EXT4 filesystem. EXT4 would INCREASE compatibility, not decrease. Voodoo lagfix adds the EXT4 filesystem to the phone... Without Lagfix, you may have ext2 and you will have RFS, but not EXT4.

I've got the image running on my CM7 Desire Z, and I love the added functionality. I did some updates and installed some additional packages, and the system needs to reboot to complete the process. This is where I ran in a little snag:

There doesn't seem to be a way to reboot a chrooted image. No matter what I try (the bt5 console, android terminal emulator, adb shell), I can't get the image to reboot. "Exit" in the console doesn't work, this just stops the image for later use.

Googling didn't give me any results. Is there a solution for this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slimm609:
its chroot. it cant reboot. what is saying you have to reboot? The linux kernel is the only reason you have to ever reboot in linux and seeing how bt5 is using the android kernel on the phone there is nothing that you have to reboot for.

also this is at this movement very limited as BT has provided limited support.

As we are already running this on non officially supported device you can go ahead and modify the following file.

/etc/apt/sources.list

in this file you will find commented lines for ubuntu enable all those.

now you will be able to use the arm repository of ubuntu too...

Does the HDMI out mirror as in display on the tv exactly what is on the device screen regardless if it is games, movies, internet etc. Or is it like the droidx and only plays movies on the tv and not show what playing on the device.

(This is a re-post from Android Hacking and General section; I developed this on a Mesmerize so I can promise it will work just fine on 2.1 and 2.2.1 stock kernels)

Requires a rooted device!

BackTrack 5 installation guides are making their way around this forum. I've tried to synthesize it all, but I've also added my own touches to help with usability and features, along with a workaround for the "ioctl LOOP_SET_FD failed" error message some people have been getting.

In theory this build is nearly universal, so if you have an Android device it should work. I've put it all in one zip file that you can download directly from my website, no hassles or wait timers.

If you are interested have a look, feel free to re-post. Credit goes to the BackTrack team and xda member anantshri (he's got skills, give him props guys), who built the base image file.

[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
So maybe I'm drunk (which I am) or I'm retarded (which I am). What EXACTLY is this for?
[Samsung Mesmerize] msullivan:
lol...

BackTrack is an operating system based on Ubuntu Linux that is used for security testing (aka hacking) and digital forensics. I'm a master's degree student in computer security, so I love this OS... it can do awesome things. Turn on your Wi-Fi and you can do advanced network scans and tests right from your phone, no laptop required. For me this is hella-useful.

But besides just being an OS for hacking ****, it's also fully Ubuntu-based, so you can run it like a desktop, including running Firefox and ****.
[Samsung Mesmerize] kallell:
I doubt this is possible to do via a phone, but can you crack wifi networks using this?
[Samsung Mesmerize] davidbruington:
Wait, so let me get this straight.... this is an ubuntu based os that will run on the mesmerize???

If so, HOW? Dual boot? Or complete rom replacement?

My curiosity is peaked.

Assuming the Wi-Fi chipset supports it (and it probably does) then yes, you could, but it will take a lot longer than, say, if you had a laptop, since Wi-Fi cracking always involves cryptographic computations.
[Samsung Mesmerize] msullivan:
It still runs pretty nicely, especially considering you are running it on a phone :P And for what it's worth, having to use VNC as the GUI is often a plus; it's nice to be able to switch back and forth quickly.
