Kali NetHunter  Released Finally for Mediatek Devices!


Kali NetHunter for Micromax A106 (MT6582) is fresh out, with a whole bunch of improvements, bug fixes….and yes, Android Lollipop support. This means that NetHunter now supports the Mediatek devices too! This is awesome news to all those who have bought these new Nexus devices and have yearned to install the Kali NetHunter on them. What else is new with NetHunter? We’re excited to tell you all about it:

Marshmallow Support for MT6582

NetHunter on Nexus 9

The Developers added Lollipop support for all MT6582 devices. The Micromax A106 usually rum on MT6582 Chipset powered by Mediatek is powerful enough and most devices are running on Marshmallow using custom roms, providing a horrible user experience. I’ve tested our Marshmallow releases well, and so far, haven’t found a good enough reason to move to Android 6.0 on our own production devices. Don’t get me wrong, Android 6.0 is nice and shiny…but not mature enough yet for our purposes. Though we can run the Kali Linux Net Hunter reliably on MT6582 Devices. All in all, we’re excited about the new linux images as they usher in an era of updated hardware to our Mobile Attack Platform. One caveat worth mentioning devices.
