    Good post, just one thing I want to let you know that first time I face problem for non-rooted solution, It is not clear that which IP address we have to insert in command Device IP address or Computer IP address, but after both try I come to know that I have to give device IP address.

    Please mention clearly that device IP address we require for non rooted device.
