Notes

In order to use wireless debugging, first enable ADB over TCP as usual and select Always allow from this computer. When App Manager is working on this mode, enable wireless debugging, and then, go to App Manager settings and change Mode of Operations to Wireless Debugging. At this point, App Manager should display a prompt where the port number from the wireless debugging window should be inserted. With this mode enabled, App Manager will display this prompt everytime it requires the port number. As always, remember to disable wireless debugging once App Manager's initialization screen goes away. Unless you're using MIUI, you won't need to enable wireless debugging until the next restart.

Aurora Store 4.0.5 have introduced promotional apps. As a result, we stopped supporting these versions. You can still use the previous versions without issues.
