<p align="left">

</p>
Tested on the RaspiBlitz v1.3 with Tor activated.
Download the [Zeus](https://zeusln.app/) app.
Available on:
* [GitHub](https://github.com/ZeusLN/zeus/releases),
* [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.zeusln.zeus/)
* [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zeusln.zeus)
### Create the Hidden Service:
* In the RaspiBlitz terminal:
`$ sudo nano /etc/tor/torrc`
* paste on the end of the file:
```
HiddenServiceDir /mnt/hdd/tor/lnd_REST/
HiddenServiceVersion 3
HiddenServicePort 8080 127.0.0.1:8080
```
Save (Ctrl+O, ENTER) and exit (Ctrl+X)
If you want to use a different port:
```
HiddenServicePort THIS_CAN_BE_ANY_PORT 127.0.0.1:8080
```
* Restart Tor:
`$ sudo systemctl restart tor`
* Take note of the HIDDEN_SERVICE_ADDRESS.onion:
`$ sudo cat /mnt/hdd/tor/lnd_REST/hostname`
Example output:
```
32zzibxmqi2ybxpqyggwwuwz7a3lbvtzoloti7cxoevyvijexvgsfeid.onion
```
### Install lndconnect
* Install Go and the latest lndconnect manually:
```
# check if Go is installed (should be v1.11 or higher):
go version
# If need to install Go, run these:
wget https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.13.linux-armv6l.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.13.linux-armv6l.tar.gz
sudo rm *.gz
sudo mkdir /usr/local/gocode
sudo chmod 777 /usr/local/gocode
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
export GOPATH=/usr/local/gocode
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
# make the path persist
sudo bash -c "echo 'PATH=\$PATH:/usr/local/gocode/bin/' >> /etc/profile"
# Install lndconnect from source:
go get -d github.com/LN-Zap/lndconnect
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/LN-Zap/lndconnect
make
```
### Generate the lndconnect string
* Run lndconnect with the HIDDEN_SERVICE_ADDRESS.onion filled in:
`$ lndconnect --host=HIDDEN_SERVICE_ADDRESS.onion --port=8080`
Example:
`lndconnect --host=32zzibxmqi2ybxpqyggwwuwz7a3lbvtzoloti7cxoevyvijexvgsfeid.onion --port=8080`
Maximise the window and reduce the text size to fit the screen.
Use CTRL + - or the middle mouse wheel on Windows.
### Set up [Orbot](https://guardianproject.info/apps/orbot/ )

On Orbot's main screen select the gear icon under `tor enabled apps`.

Click `STOP` on the big onion logo.
Exit Orbot and reopen it. Turn on `VPN Mode`.
