I recently saw this tweet from kali linux

https://twitter.com/kalilinux/status/1209615382224547840?s=19

on installing rootless nethunter on an unrooted android device. This is my attempt to do so.

The tweet linked here: https://www.kali.org/docs/nethunter/nethunter-rootless/

The instructions are pretty easy to follow

  • From the NetHunter Store, install TermuxNetHunter-KeX client, and Hacker’s keyboard
  • I had Termux and hackers keyboard already :)
  • Open Termux and type:

    pkg install wget
    wget -O install-nethunter-termux https://offs.ec/2MceZWr
    chmod +x install-nethunter-termux

The commands executed and before long I was downloading
