Title: Odin on VirtualBox
Date: 2011-08-11
Lang: en

I flashed an Adroid update earlier today. This was done from Windows using Odin and it worked like a charm.

This approach requires me to boot into Windows, though which is quite an interrupt in the daily procedure. So I thought I'd give Odin on Windows running in a VirtualBox  a try. After some fuzzing around I was able to flash the same update again. Here's the steps I used to prepare my VirtualBox:

* download the Windows drivers for Samsung Galaxy S (e.g. from Softpedia) and install
* shut down Windows
* connect the Samsung Galaxy via USB
* in the VirtualBox Manager define an USB filter<br>![VBox USB settings]({static}/images/VirtualBoxUSB.png)
* power up VirtualBox and use Odin to flash
