I want to spoof my TCP fingerprint to appear as I'm being on Android or iOS. Can anyone show me how? Much appreciated!

A TCP fingerprint is made by analysing your network activity and making a hash out of things like your TCP Initial Sequence Number, window size, and things like that.

All of these are defined at your kernel level and the only way to spoof this is by either patching your Linux kernel with a kernel module like Ip personality . Or the easy way would be to simply make a SOCKS Proxy out of an android device and use that for your internet connection.
 
There is PoC stuff available like OsFooler, with that you can spoof your TCP fingerprints but setup won't be easy
 
You need to capture and repack TCP packets on interface to modify your TCP fingerprint. It's possible only with Root permissions.
You can check github for examples like fedosgad/tcp_mimic

Thanks for all your help guys!
 
The easy way to do this is to find a proxy service that offers this, some of them do but usually not the cheapest ones.
 
You can disguise yourself as Android or iOS using Nmap custom TCP fingerprints or by leveraging proxies and VPNs that emulate mobile device behavior, but be aware that this may violate terms of service and legal regulations.
 
Very important point - when you want to spoof a fingerprint - you probably want to use a proxy - and this is where the problem starts - not all proxies can support TCP fingerprint spoofing. So you want the fingerprint to be changed on the end server, that is, on the proxy. That is, you want the proxy to send your packets unchanged - but most often, proxies repackage your packets. So from my observations of spoofing only about 10-15 per cent of proxies can do it and few VPNs support it too. I can write a more detailed post on this topic. If anyone would be interested in it

No matter how you disguise yourself, cyber security experts have already studied all its parameters and put modules in place to detect you easily.

Yes, it's the eternal confrontation between sides of specialists :). I disagree) If everything is already done, then why are there still various gray/black schemes? )

As technology continues to evolve, experts find ways and blackhats keep on digging. To hide the fingerprint, everything is hidden in the network. It's a whole panoply of things to put in place. It's a real headache. Apart from that, you need a good proxy (a proxy is easy to detect because of its slowness). It's very complicated with the constant evolution of technology.
 
Spoofing your TCP fingerprint to mimic Android or iOS is a complex task and may violate terms of service of certain networks or platforms. To achieve this, you would need to modify your system's network stack or use tools like scapy or pfctl on Linux to manipulate TCP headers.
