It can be enabled without rooting.
You must have JDK (including platform tools) and proper ADB drivers installed.
- First, download TWRP Recovery for Android one (sprout) and paste it in
c\program files\andrdk\platform-tools
. Rename it to "twrp". - Connect your device.
- Right click on
platform-tools
folder holding left-shift and click on "Open command window from here". - Type
adb reboot bootloader
-- this will boot phone into fastboot mode.
Then type fastboot boot twrp.img
-- this will boot the device into
TWRP recovery temporarily.
5. In recovery click mount
, then check system
.
6. Type adb pull /system/build.prop
-- this will copy the build.prop
into the platform-tools
folder.
6. Open the build.prop
file using notepad++ (simple notepad may corrupt the file), add the following two lines at the bottom and then save it:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=3
Type
adb push build.prop /system/
-- this will push the edited file.Now type
adb shell cd system chmod 644 build.prop
And finally, go back to recovery using navigation key and click reboot then click system.
Now, you have enabled multiuser without root.
NOTE: Do everything at your own risk. I will be not be responsible for any damage to your device.
I posted this because this worked for my Android one.
