Create a Bootable USB from Android
1 Step: Pick your Android and go to play store, now search for ISO 2 USB application as I have given the link above.
Step 2: Once you find the application then install it on your android and wait to complete the installation.
Step 3: To make a bootable USB drive open ISO 2 USB application.

Step 4: Here, you will see two options (PICK, PICK) the first option you have to Pick your USB Pin Drive, therefore, connect your USB with OTG Cable and connect OTG cable to your Android. After that, Click the Pick option and select the USB you have inserted.

Step 5: Once you pick the USB then it is time to PICK ISO File. you must have an ISO file of the operating system you want to make a bootable USB Drive. for example, you want to create Windows 10 USB installer then you should download the ISO file on your Android because without ISO file you can’t make a Bootable USB Pin Drive. Whenever you download the ISO file then click the Pick option and select the ISO file.

Step 6: So, when you pick a Windows 10.ISO file then check the Format USB Driver box, in case, you want to erase all the data. after that, click the Start button to start creating a bootable USB Drive. During the procedure make sure your Android is connected with Wifi Internet Connection because without an internet connection you can’t complete the procedure. then, make sure your Android has more than 80% charge. if it has less charge then you can’t connect your android with charging cable because you have connected OTG cable. Therefore, you should focus on these things to complete the USB Drive Bootable.
Step 7: When you click the start button. Then the process will get a start and you will need to wait for 15 to 20 minutes. During the process, you will see multiple ads running on your android screen. Here, close the ads and wait to complete the process.

Step 8: After 20 minutes you will see the notification “Burning ISO file done successfully“. Finally, you are done with creating a bootable USB from your Android phone. When the process get completed then your USB device will be removed from your phone automatically.

Here, I checked the USB drive on my computer. You can see the screenshot that the USB has all the Windows 10 setup files and it is ready to install Windows 10.

After all the procedure, Now connect your bootable USB to your PC and boot windows 10 from USB and install the operating system.

I followed the steps in this article 100% to a T, using two separate USB drives, and also three different Android devices. The ISO files it was supposed to burn to the drive, were from Microsoft’s “Download Windows 10 ISO Disk Image File” web page, so it was authentic. But every time I try to boot from any of the different drives I have, my PC still says that my USB drive that I selected it to boot from (in order to install Windows 10 x64) has no Operating System on it when your app is telling me its 100% completed & ready to boot Windows. Does anyone have the slightest clue of how to fix it, or either point me in the direction of software that will work? Thanks in advance for your time, patience & help!
If still your USB is not working then the problem might be with ISO file. As our method worked for many.

Plz dont download it waste ur time not working i am personally used if really working plz tell me after 100 %done when i connect to pc say disk error
we will fix the issue soon
USB to ISO is failing because “iso file contains files larger than 4gb”
Any solution to this?
ntfs wont support greater than 4gb, it should be fat32 to transfer files.
its not working …. after i created the bootable drive and boot my system with this pendrive.. it say it this is not bootable disk
This method is working, try to insert another operating system installer file.
Hi guys… I installed iso2usb on my android phone but every time I try to start It shows this
‘could not write to device, result==-1 errno 0 null’
The error might cause because you leave the app during the process or you didn’t follow the full steps.
It’s also not worked for me
I will solve it soon
The app fails to detect the USB drive. Any idea why?
we are trying to fix the problem. Soon you will get the new update.
Im getting ‘could not write to device, result==-1 errno 0 null’ as well
When I tried this method…. It says can’t find USB driver
try to plug the USB correctly
Sir it will work
yeah it will work
Confirm – on Mi 8 Pro xiaomi and netac u335s via otg (usb 3.0 adapter) i have the same error: can’t find usb driver. What does it mean: no usb drivers for android or usb flash not properly recognised or else?
Might be you have not plugged the USB correctly. Otherwise, this issue should not be faced.
What does it mean: not correct pluged in? I have only inserted flash in the slot, what can here be done wrong? I inserted the flash and can see files on the usb, but if i try to write an iso – message appears that there are no usb drivers. So what could else be done to ensure all is correct?
It says access denied , can u help ?
No, it says no drivers found ( I can choose my flash, but can not write the ISO). Can i write any bootable iso or only some special? Can this message mean that it is an unsupported iso format?
It can support any iso file. Make sure to select the accurate file.
Thanks it saved my time. You are great!
4 GB limit. Windows 10 iso is 5.5 gb
Can’t find usb driver
Problem 😭😭😭
Hello
sorry for that, we will try to fix it soon
Limite to 4Giga can’t put win 10 with 5.6giga.
That’s useless, the point here is make your smartphone an USB Drive ( when you don’t have one at all ).
Why would someone want to boot .iso from USB if they already have USB Drive? Would be a lot easier to just go to a friend and use his PC/Laptop to download whatever you need e.g. Windows.
On another hand there’s method with Root, you can download .iso using your smartphone and simply boot it in your BIOS directly from the smartphone.
Please sir how to fix can’t find driver
for me it get’s stuck on 17% and won’t load after that.
Waste of time because the ISO file is over 4gb and is not supported with thr ISO application
ISO files are bigger than 4gb so it won’t work.
I am trying, but its not working. Access (permission denied) how to fix. My PC totly off what can I do ? Please give me solution.
