    Can I use my phone as a bootable usb flash drive?
    I have bought the windows 8 iso to update from windows 7 to windows 8 pro, my question is before going out and buying a flash drive that will be used once and once only, can I use my galaxy s3 which has 32gb memory as a bootable flash drive and will it wipe or damage the phone in any way?

    Thanks

    No as it mounts as a drive rather than a dumb memory device.
