Enable USB Debugging

USB debugging is enabled via the "Developers Option" which formerly resided in the Settings menu. This option was removed from visibility with the Android 4.2.2 update. It can be made visible again though an Easter-egg style action. Goto:

• Settings -> About Phone -> Software information -> Build number
• Tap on the "Build number" area of the screen several times (5 or more). There will be a message indicating you are X number of clicks away from being a "Developer." Clicking until developer is active you will then return to the Settings menu. The "Developer options" will now be visible somewhere between "PC connection" and "About phone."
• Under the "Developer options" scroll down to "Debugging" and check "USB debugging."
