Can someone add the forced instructions to the wiki? This would be good for those using a plain gender bender and those of us not willing/able to ground the x pin.

I have a cable that physically lets me connect a USB flash drive, but it doesn't auto-register in file manager. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I've tried two things with no success, the commands wern't recognized (I did gainroot, I think). Can it be done without gaining root or red-pill mode?
