Part 5. --- messing around with xposed

PART 5. --- MESSING AROUND WITH XPOSED​

Now that we have wanam's custom ported version of Xposed installed, let's make use of it.​

!!!IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

DON'T USE XPOSED INSTALLER APK UNLESS YOU HAVE A DEODEXED ROM!!!

!!!IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!​

A common issue appears on Samsung's Marshmallow that keeps restarting your device every time you enable a module.

There's a workaround that can fix this. Simply don't use Xposed Installer app, instead use XDA Labs app.

Let's get right to it!

1. Install XDA Labs app, you can find it here: http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=18297

2. Grant Root Access to it and go to Xposed tab.

3. Go to search and search for GravityBox [MM], install it.

4. Click on DONE and go back to XDA Labs app. It'll say that you need to restart to enable the module. Click on RESTART.

5. After you've restarted, open the GravityBox [MM] app.

6. Go to Navigation bar tweaks, and enable Master switch and Enable navigation bar.

7. Close the app and restart.

8. You'll see that now you have a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen.

9. [OPTIONAL] You can disable Samsung's hardware navigation keys if you know how to do it.​

THIS IS THE END OF OUR FIRST JOURNEY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, JUST REPLY TO ME ON THIS THREAD, THAT WAY I CAN ANSWER FASTER.​

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
Hi all,

I already compiled cm13 for my P3100 using muppets repository and Android-Andi`s help.

Now I wanna compile a cm13 rom for my Galaxy Tab A SM-T555/GT510LTE which seems to be unknown to Cyanogenmod.

I have a boardconfig thx to ashyx already but besides its work for recovery there seems to be no work on this device.

I have /system folder from stock 6.0.1 rom extracted already and boardconfig.mk, but need to know how to create new device tree for this device or which blobs to use/where to link/ where to copy.

Or is there any custom rom/vendor/device/proprietary thread/git group for this deviece yet?(only found other git repositories for GT510WIFI device/kernel for cm12.1)

.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
You can fork a device tree of a similar device than yours, or just go to the source root folder, open a terminal and write this:

. build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh *MANUFACTURER *DEVICE *BOOT.IMG_LOCATION

Here, *MANUFACTURER is the device manufacturer (samsung)

*DEVICE is your device codename (GT510LTE)

*BOOT.IMG_LOCATION is where is located your device's kernel location (~/boot.img for example)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
OK then .extract-files.sh.sh for proprietary blobs?

Or how to continue?

Thanks for your help man
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
You can continue by typing ". build/envsetup.sh", then "brunch GT510LTE". Now the build process begins
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
What about proprietary Files?

Sry

I'm new to this level of compiling
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
Pull your device to your computer, make sure you have adb activated on your device and installed on your PC, then open a terminal, cd to your device folder (device/samsung/GT51LTE), and run "./extract-files.sh" You'll have all proprietary blobs in vendor/samsung/GT510LTE/proprietary folder :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
I cd~/android/system all fine

After that when I run . build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh samsung gt510lte ~/boot.img the terminal closes emidiately after pressing input and nothing happens besides.

There is only one boot.img in system and mkvendor.sh is executable
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
Type this command before building device tree:

gcc -o ~/bin/unpackbootimg -Isystem/core/include system/core/mkbootimg/unpackbootimg.c
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
Alright, getting this:

chemnitzer@chemnitzer-VirtualBox:~/android/system$ . build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh samsung gt510lte ~/boot.img

I created vendorsetup.sh file by coping from another device so envsetup.sh includes the device and luch finishes, too.

but now extract-files.sh is still missing for that device.

Can I copy from any other device?

Thanks for your patience
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
Yes. But open this file with gedit and change the device's codenames with yours
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
But which files need to be added to proprietaryfiles.txt?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hicham03:
In proprietary-files.txt there are all device private blobs. You need to keep it like it was.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chemnitzer:
Well I took extract-files.sh. sh and proprietary Files. Text of espresso WiFi so I get not found error. file wasn't created automatic

Edit:

Just found generate-blob-list.sh and give it a try.

Any experience about This?

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NonfatGinger:
What exactly does NetHunter do? I'm doing some research on it but I'm not understanding it... Does it penetrate WPA2 net security? Or is it for some other purpose?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PseudoDev:
Ever seen a pocket knife? If Kali is a huge arsenal of knives, Kali nethunter is a pocket edition of that. My experience with Kali was fine, but its not really wise to use as a daily driver. The idea of having a phone or PC which will act as a hack station is pretty mouthwatering, but it eventually gets you. I'm not sure if net hunter can crack wpa2 security, but if it does, most WiFi crackers act by using bruteforce and cracking a password with bruteforce is very slim. And net hunter although claims to be stable enough, is still in testing stage. If you want and it, it's fine. But I would prefer sticking to normal google based builds. :laugh:
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FanboyStudios:
A bounty huh..... I don't have money, however I do have a paid app I could giveaway. What it does is encrypt text with a password you choose offline. You can use it to send messages securely over any service like facebook, twitter, sms, ect. You can use it to save private notes on your device (for example a list of your usernames and passwords, or a "Death Note" if you're into to that anime stuff lol).

Kali Nethunter is a slew of penetration testing tools. Tools that could be used to do a number of different things. I've used Kali on desktop to do forensics on my pc, hack wifi, create qr codes for social engineering, ect.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FanboyStudios:
Because it's basically the mobile version of Kali Linux.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FanboyStudios:
I think it may be able to crack wifi. On the desktop version, there are several ways of attacking wifi access points (examples: WPS Pin Attack, Dictionary [kali comes with some, one of them has over a million passwords], bruteforce of course, rainbow tables, ect.)
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PseudoDev:
Fine, I will do it for free but you gotta wait...not because you didn't pay but...unless someone else doesn't take up your project, it will take about a month till I get my band width at the best speed. Until that, its too slow to get the sources and build one. Porting from one device to another is easy...but Creating one from the source is a time taking process (Not to mention the bug fixing). Also, I used Kali for a week until fedora became my daily driver. I think you are talking about fern WiFi cracker right? Used it. It primarily depends upon a dictionary and uses those to crack...its some form of brute force. If you crack WiFi by it then you are just lucky. I could never get a WiFi cracked. Besides, it also needs a network handshake which is possible only if multiple devices are connect to the WiFi. Never really worked for me .... But i f it did .... Good for you :laugh:

Anyways, if you could like, wait till 24th of July, I could give you the build...until that, you either have to wait or find a new dev.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FanboyStudios:
I'm perfectly fine with waiting... shoot i'm even waiting for CM13 for this device to become Stable, as of now they are nightlies and I have some minor issues with it. It does certainly beat stock though!

As for brute forcing, it will always work if it has the time and the proper configuration. Brute forcing tests for every password possible.

Thank you very much!
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PseudoDev:
Yup, brute force works with every password possible...

That's the problem. I don't know your age but I presume you have been in highschool by now. You must have read a chapter in maths named permutations and combinations? That's how bruteforce works. Even for a 4 digit pass word it tries all possible digits. And for that, if you try the combinations, its coming about 6561 combinations. That's a lot. And now a days, passwords are not less than 10 digits.

So its 3486784401 many combinations. If it even takes as less as 0.1 sec for each combo, it will take up to 968551.2225 hrs! With those many possible combinations, if you get it , you are lucky. Providing a pre-made dictionary helps but not much. In my country, we use our personal 10 digit phone numbers. That's something a general dictionary won't have, well, you have seen how many combos are possible. And if the password has characters and numbers....i just don't know...a century?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t83wood:
Kali nethunter is an app that downloads and installs all the necessary files to run in a chroot that it also downloads and sets up for you from within the app. There's not really a need to port it since it works fine on some Roms for surnia already. I'm running the marshmallow version right now in fact, the only problem I have is space needed on internal storage to install all the tools I want and the desktop environment I want but I'm looking for solutions. Another problem is since we won't be running on the hardware it was designed for we won't get allot of the wireless tools to work since the kernel(s) for our device aren't officially supported. The best thing I think to port if anything would be the required kernel to our device then go from there. However we should still be able to use other tools that have armhf or armel architecture which will still be fewer than a full Kali distro running on a PC, so another thing I'm playing with is installing the i386 and AMD64 versions using Linux deploy, without much success yet but I'll either get it eventually or figure out why it's not possible right now.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PseudoDev:
Thanks for the info ^_^ ! I had not researched much and thought it was just like any other ROM whose massive sources I had to download.

There you go [MENTION=6673664]FanboyStudios[/MENTION] , no more waiting!
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t83wood:
So update, which is partially for documenting what I've done and partially for sharing my experience and preferences. Installed the nethunter full chroot and kali-rolling using Linux Deploy. I feel like the Linux Deploy solution offers the most benefits because I learned more along the way and because it seems more customizable and because it allows the installation to reside on an external SD card instead of taking up what little internal storage our device has.

So first after days of messing with around I determined installing to a partition wasn't happening so I decided on installing the file way which creates a raw disk image that is where Linux gets installed into. Two problems with this for me were that fat32 won't work with files over 4 gigs, and also that I didn't feel (and was right btw) that 4 gigs would be enough for everything I wanted (kali-linux-full, and a DE other than Lxde). So here's the procedure that worked best for me.

Use Aparted from Google Play to format the external SD card with a fat32 partition for typical storage, an ext4 partition for a larger than 4 gig Linux image, and a third ext4 partition to use with apps2sd from the Play Store to save space on my internal SD card.

After formatting, I installed meefik's busybox to /system/xbin (which is the default install location) then Linux deploy also by Meefik, then used Linux deploy to install the image to the second ext4 partition. For whatever reason though when I would try to specify a large file size for the distro, it would either fail to create it or it would report that it had been created and I'd discover later that the images didn't have the larger space I'd specified. So I installed it without caring about the image size and tested it with terminal emulator (also from the Play Store) by changing directory to /data/data/ru.meefik.linuxdeploy/files/bin/

Then running ./linuxdeploy shell

Which opened the distro installed to the image file and let me update it and install whatever until I ran out of space in the image file. So then I just used a pc running Ubuntu to create and format a blank .img file as ext4, and copied my image from the phone's external SD card to the computer, and copied the contents from the original image to the new large image, copied the larger image to the second ext4 partition, and then I was good to go with enough free space to install not only kali-linux-full but gnome DE as well. I couldn't get gnome working with tightvncserver though so I ended up uninstalling gnome and tightvncserver, and went with the mate DE and vnc4server which didn't require much to get a gui.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gyari16:
Well, I had installed Kali Linux using linux deploy app without much trouble on my moto e 2014 condor. And even tried airodump-ng package for WiFi sniffing but as we require external wifi adapter I couldn't make it... My moto e doesn't have otg support, so can I use external WiFi adapter like tl wn722n, because Linux has inbuilt support ( something related to kernel support) to usb connection? So because of Linux support, will this identify the connected adapter to my moto e?
