Unable to install kalifs-amd64-full.tar.xz using Nethunter.apk

Created by: R3dy

Device:

HTC Nexus 9

OS version (KitKat/Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat):

Nougat 7.1.1

Built from repo (date and build command) or downloaded from website (links):

downloaded from website https://build.nethunter.com/kalifs/kalifs-latest/

Issue:

The install of the chroot from within the .apk fails due to an invalid SSL handshake. error: java.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException

The usesdcard option would be fine accept it is looking for a hard coded path '/storage/emulated/0/kalifs-full.tar.xz' which does not exist on my device which has no sdcard. I have tried creating the path manually on the internal storage partition with no success.

My proposed solution would to add a simple feature to browse to and select a file. This way tablets without an internal SD card could simply drop the file on their local storage partition and install the chroot from there.

Alternatively fix the ssl issue probably being triggered by either an invalid SSL cert or a broken URL. perhaps an option to specify a custom URL would be helpful.
