Fastboot FOR Android

[chareos12]

Hi ppl,

I was wondering if it's somewhat possible to have fastboot installed as an apk on my tablet (Android) in order to flash things on a smartphone plugged in that tablet.

Scenario is: wife wants my notebook; I want her tablet. If I could use adb and fastboot from the Android tablet, I could really do everything with it and the swap may happen

Thanks
Fabio

No way at all, I guess?

Android already has fastboot built in but you will need a OTG cable and a search in the manual to find out how to access.

On my tablet (Aishuo) it is menu and power up .

Do the swap man you wont regret it ( he says )

There is a binary called "flash_image" which you can run from terminal emulator, which can (as the name suggests) flash images in a similar fashion to fastboot. Google it

Not sure if you already figured out yourself, but this thread is about fastboot and adb via otg
