General discussion • Re: How do I install raspberry pi os onto SD card using my phone

My HDMI to micro HDMI dongle is broken and I want to know how to get the raspberry pi to run on my phone screen, I don't have an extra computer or anything like that and I don't have the OS installed on any SD card

A long time ago a contributor to these forums posted this -
Pi Card Imager - android app prepares SD cards without PC - viewtopic.php?t=170856#p1095084

Android and RasPiOS have both moved on since - I have no idea if the App will still work.


An alternative would be to install RasPiOS directly from a cabled Ethernet connection -
Install over the network - https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... he-network
Network Install enables a Raspberry Pi to install an operating system on a storage device using a version of Raspberry Pi Imager downloaded over the network. With Network Install, you can get an operating system installed on your Raspberry Pi with no separate SD card reader and no computer other than your Raspberry Pi.


{Edit: 'Install over the Network' requires a working HDMI display, which you don't have, as @procount gently pointed out below.}
