What's New in v1.4

  • Internal Wi-Fi Packet Injection: The internal Qualcomm qcacld-3.0 chip now fully supports raw packet injection using the add-qcacld-3.0-injection-4.14-sm6125-v2.patch. By utilizing a custom firmware bypass, you can now perform active wireless attacks (like deauths) directly from the device, without needing an external USB Wi-Fi adapter.
  • TP-Link UB500 (Bluetooth) Support: Integrated the add-ub500-to-btusb.patch into the native btusb driver. This adds plug-and-play kernel support for Realtek RTL8761B/BU based Bluetooth 5.0/5.3 adapters, enabling advanced BLE sniffing and auditing via external dongles. (Note: this haven't been tested, as it might require Realtek firmware).
  • Unrestricted Module Loading: Strict module signature enforcement (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE) has been intentionally disabled. This grants you the absolute freedom to compile, inject, and load custom out-of-tree drivers (like experimental Wi-Fi adapters or custom tools) on the fly without fighting kernel signature mismatch errors.
  • Optimized Build & Cleaned Up Modules: Disabled over 100 unnecessary DVB/TV tuner drivers from the kernel configuration. The core RTL2832 SDR drivers remain fully intact, keeping the NetHunter app's module list clean and relevant.
