v1.1.0

New in v1.1.0:

• WireGuard kernel module (wireguard-linux-compat), built with the same proton-clang toolchain and signed with the kernel build key. The kernel enforces CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE, so the module is signed exactly like 88XXau.ko and ships systemlessly in the AnyKernel3 zip. Bring your own config and wg-quick works from the NetHunter userland.
• Flash path unchanged from v1.0.0: TWRP, flash the zip, reboot recovery, reflash Magisk, reboot.
• Same LOS 18.1-class 4.4 base as v1.0.0, no defconfig changes required.
• sha256 checksum file attached, verify before flashing.

Check after boot: insmod /system/lib/modules/wireguard.ko, then ip link add dev wg0 type wireguard (or just wg-quick up from NetHunter).

Support: XDA thread (link in the first post) or the Telegram channel t.me/whyrednethunter.

v1.0.0: NetHunter ready kernel for whyred (LOS 18.1)

First CI validated build. Kernel 4.4.302 on the LineageOS 18.1 sdm660 base, built by GitHub Actions from this repo.

Highlights

• HID gadget (/dev/hidg0) for DuckHunter style keystroke injection over OTG
• functionfs for NetHunter USB gadget plumbing
• 88XXau.ko (RTL8812AU/8821AU/8814AU) bundled in the zip, signed with the kernel build key: monitor mode and packet injection with an external adapter
• firmware user helper on, paranoid network removed
• AnyKernel3 zip with systemless module install, rollback = restore boot from your nandroid

Assets

• whyred-nethunter-kernel-20260901.zip + .sha256: CI built
• whyred-nethunter-kernel-4.4.302-20260901.zip + .sha256: offline build of the same source tree, module also signed
• FLASH-GUIDE.md: pre flash checklist, flash sequence, verification steps

Flash in 3 lines

TWRP nandroid first. Flash the zip. Reboot recovery and reflash Magisk (mandatory), then boot.

Targets LOS 18.1-class ROMs (4.4 kernel). Not for 4.19 based A13/A14 ROMs. The internal WCN3980 WiFi cannot monitor or inject on any kernel: use an external RTL8812AU over OTG.
