Question

What should I do if I can't enable WiFi when I enable monitor mode?

Community Answer

This is normal, as you only have one network chip, and it can only do one thing at a time. Simply turn off monitor mode after finding the WiFi password.

Question

What app can I download to root my phone?

Community Answer

There are a number of apps that can do the trick. Try searching "one click root" on Google. However, depending on the specific model or carrier you use, you may not actually be able to root your phone. For example, Verizon in the US is well known for blocking the security changes needed to achieve permanent root access on Android.
