Rooting android via virtual windows 8 on ubuntu 12.04 I want to root my sony xperia p android 4.1.2. I'm using ubuntu 12.04LTS and it seems uncomfortable to root my xperia via ubuntu. So i've installed windows 8 (32 bit) on virtual box. Is it will be safe to root my phone via virtual windows 8?
If you can pass the USB control of the device from the host to the guest, then it should be perfectly fine. This requires the closed-source version of virtual box. Source
