Pi-hole for Android APK Installer v.3.1.3

[DesktopECHO]

Pi-hole for Android (Pi Deploy) uses a fork of Linux Deploy to simplify installaion of Debian Linux 12 to most rooted Android devices.

What's New (December 2023)

• Updated image to Debian 12 (Bookworm)
• Pi Deploy image is now 64 bit by default
• To deploy a 32 bit image, tap Properties and change the Source Path URL from /raspbian.tgz to /raspbian32.tgz

Note to users running previous version:

• The APK installer is unchanged (no need to re-install the Pi Deploy APK)
• If required, use Pi-hole Teleporter to back-up your existing configuration.
• Login to your existing deployment and run sudo unchroot uname -m. If your device returns armv7or armv8 your device is 32 bit and you need to change the Source Path URL to /raspbian32.tgz

Installation:

• Download and Install the Pi Deploy APK
• Tap the Options menu (Three dots ⋮ at top right of screen)
• Tap New Deployment
• After a few moments the Raspbian Image will download and install to your device.
• When deployment is complete, tap [ ▷ START ] to launch the instance.
• The instance will provide you with a password for Pi-hole admin, SSH and RDP access (Username: android, see screenshot below)
• Note: The password appears only once when the image is deployed, make sure you record this information.
• Hint: The password text can be copy/pasted to other Android apps (like Remote Desktop)

Post-install add-ons:

• To install PIXEL Desktop, run pideploy-gui-install. Next time you login via RDP you will have a full desktop session with audio support.
• For Nextcloud 27, run pideploy-nextcloud-install to launch the patched Nextcloudpi installer. Consult the official NextCloud documentation for administration of this powerful collaboration tool.
