LGNPST through Virtualbox? - AT&T LG Optimus G

My computer runs Ubuntu 13.04, and I have Windows 7 in Virtualbox. Could I use LGNPST through Virtualbox, or should I make a dual boot Windows 7 partition real quick?

You can use it in VB. Make sure you have the qcserial module loaded in Ubuntu and the serial ports forwarded in VB.

Yeah, basically, or virtual machine. You need ODIN to root, and there's no ODIN for mac as far as I know. I just booted into windows in boot camp on my laptop.
I did set up a Windows 7 Virtual Machine using VMware on the mac mini in my office, and it worked fine to flash via ODIN as well, so that's also an option if you don't want to actually make a windows partition.

Google Heimdall. That is the way to root with Mac or Linux.

So, as a noob, with an ATT Galaxy note, and a mac book pro. Is there a step by step guide for the use of the Odin/wine wrapper file?

HTC Drivers on Windows 8

I have Windows 8 64bit and I'm having an issue installing the drivers for the DNA. It tells me that the driver installer is not supported for my operating system. Has anyone successfully installed it on a Windows 8 64bit machine?

I'm using Win8 x64. Only thing I installed was the driver portion of the HTC Thunderbolt installer and the android sdk. Already had them installed for my Thunderbolt. I have both usb storage and adb access on the DNA as well.

When you plug the DNA into your computer it will mount 2 partitions (disks). One will be called HTC Sync Manager where the drivers are located. I'm using the drivers from the Win7_64 folder. I installed them through device manager and all has been working fine under Windows 8 x64. If you have any trouble please pm me.

How did you install it through device manager?

When your DNA is in USB debugging mode under dev options, it will show up as an unrecognized device in device manager when you plug it into your computer. From there you can proceed to install the drivers with the files I mention in my other post.
I am having the same issue. I opened up the virtual partition and loaded the drivers as you suggested. my DNA is listed in the dev man as MyHTC. I have usb access but no ADB. I am using the ADB from the AIO tool kit. Tried several diff USB ports and a diff cable but I don't think that's the issue. Also tried the adb from the sdk. still no dice...
I have Win8 x64 as well. After turning on USB debugging, find the device in Computer and run the sync manager. At least, I think that's what I did. I'll have to check in the morning.

Win Vista & N7 Drivers

I have a very old vista Notebook, that just doesn't want to install N7 drivers.
It installs them & then reboots, but then installs them again & reboots again. This whole thing doesn't stop
This happens for ADB & Fastboot mode. (Tried it with the N7 Toolkit, Google & Asus drivers)
PC: Win Vista 32-Bit Notebook
N7: Wi-Fi 32GB

Download sources offline on Windows

I am trying to cook my first custom rom for HTC Explorer (pico) on Ubuntu 14.04. My problem is, my Ubuntu laptop doesn't connect properly to my wifi but Windows pc does. Is there any way to download liquidsmooth sources on my windows 7 computer and then move those source folders to my Ubuntu laptop? And probably without a virtual machine.. Thanks!
