Preparations

Now there are some preparations we should pay attention to: A rooted Android phone, a USB flash drive which has 200M free space or more and an OTG cable.

Why we ask a rooted Android phone?

Because if the phone is not rooted, the system would block the WPGenius’ installation on the phone while saying that the app comes from unknown sources. We promise that the WPGenius would not do harm to your phone and data security.

Why we need a USB drive with 200M free space or more?

Because the size of the password reset media requires it. If the USB has no enough free space, the creation of a password reset disk may fail.

Why we need an OTG cable?

Typically, you can’t connect a USB flash drive to a phone. But with the help of OTG cable, you can do it.
