What's up i hope everyone is doing good
* SKIP THIS TO GET TO PROJECT *
I have a bunch of old phones and tablets, that my kids have destroyed in one way or another, that i want to put together to build something new with. I have no idea if anyone has done something like this before or if its even possible. I have little to no experience in this field, but i have been learning more and more each day. If i posted this in the wrong place or if this group doesn't really like or cover this type of thing, i am also sorry for kinda just kicked in the front door, acting like a drunk asshole, and just started blurting out a bunch of nonsense. Anyway.... The Raspberry Pi is what got me thinking about this kinda project in the first place. i dont have anything i really need one for, im not a developer or programmer, i dont build drones or bots. i just thought i would start with this and see where it goes. I just started using Linux, and getting used to how it runs. i know this will make me seem stupid and probably make a few chuckle , but i went balls deep and made a live partitioned Kali Linux USB. Yep im that guy, no experience but buys the most expensive, and non-noob practical, for pros only edition and gets in way over his head. So yea, I've been playing with that( definitely not *trying* to crack my neighbors WIFI) trying to learn about Pen testing, and getting a feel for linux. So there is the basic feel for the skills i dont have.
* PROJECT, INFO, QUESTIONS, HELP *
I have a few different things that i was wanting to try and build. Like i said above i have a bunch of parts. i will start with a list ideas and then ill list parts. Just a little note i dont have very much money so i cant go out and buy very many extra things to build with. i know this sounds worse and worse but it'll be fun for me and maybe pose a challenge for some of you plus i will get a ton of learning in
* god that sounded bad *
Here we finally go:
An iPhone that runs Kali Linux without a carrier and SIM card. Possible use would be a pocket PEN tool, that still could call and text. First big problem is getting past the no SIM activation screen.
A home controller.
Car music player/ down-loader/ streamer/ gps unit. i have a few phones with broken screens that could be integrated straight into my car or truck and stay there.
Something like a Rasp Pi or arduino. I think it would be fun to try and put one together from scratch, not sure if it even possible with what i have.
A store tracker bugger? Ok so you probably know that stores like to turn on your blue-tooth or contact your phone without your consent or even knowing, well maybe something that doesn't have a screen that just chills in my pocket with my phone and stops or fires back at them. Again not sure if its possible or even a good idea but it crossed my mind.
White hat/ Black hat: Maybe something fun or something really fun. No clue where you guys stand on this but in todays world the only way to "get ahead" is to cross that line. Look at the people running our country, its ****ing scary!!!!! Open to any ideas!!!!! if you have had enough and are leaving, thanks for making it this far!!! IF you plan on continuing, your a bad MOFO!!!
Parts and things that i have:
iphone 5s: No SIM card or little tray that sides that SIM into the phone. Other than that it works good.
Samsung galaxy s3: Everything works, battery life is shot and is extremely annoying
Samsung galaxy s4: Digitizer is broken. Other than that it works great.
ZTE: 830 at&t phone from walmart. everything works plastic screen is cracked
Lg: L16C everything works but i took it apart and it is running with no cover on it.
Hp laptop: Not sure year or anything its in pieces, it was not working before it was taken apart because of a virus.
2x Nextbooks: they are 3 years old and dont turn on. one of them is in pieces and the other is complete.
That pretty much covers it. there might be a few more things i cant think of but nothing major. Well, what do you think? is there the possibility to make something? I think by now your know way more about me than you could have ever wanted, your eyes probably hurt, and you most likely have to pee, so ill hurry, Thanks for your time and for the work you have already put into helping me. I only ask that you just keep this in the back of your head and if something comes to mind, send me a reply. If you hated this and are sick of me, my horrible grammer, bad storytelling and everything else, feel free to tell me when you also have an idea to add.
THANK YOU
