What is USB Debugging Mode?If you use an Android phone and you’ve searched forums for solutions to problems, you’ve probably heard the term “USB Debugging” every once in a while. You may even have seen it while looking through your phone’s settings. It sounds like a high-tech option, but it really isn’t; it’s quite simple and useful.
USB Debugging Mode is one thing that you cannot skip to know if you are an Android user. The primary function of this mode is to facilitate a connection between an Android device and a computer with Android SDK (Software Development Kit). So it can be enabled in Android after connecting the device directly to a computer via USB.

Why I need to enable USB Debugging Mode?USB Debugging grants you a level of access to your device. This level of access is important when you need system-level clearance, such as when coding a new app. It also gives you much more freedom of control over your device. For example, with Android SDK, you gain direct access to your phone through your computer and that allows you to do things or run terminal commands with ADB. These terminal commands can help you restore a bricked phone. You are also able to use some third-party tools to better manage your phone (for example, Syncios Mobile Transfer [syncios.com]). So this mode is a useful tool for any adventurous Android owner.

Now, please follow these steps to debug your HTC U Ultra/U Play.
Step 1: Unlock your phone and go to Settings.
Step 2: Under Settings, scroll down and open About phone.
Step 3: Under About Phone find Build Number and tap seven times on it. Then you will see a message "You are now a developer" which means you have succesfully enabled the developer option.
Step 4: Back to Settings, scroll down and tap Developer option.
Step 5: Under Developer option, tap on USB Debugging, select USB Debugging to enable it.
That’s it. After followed the above steps, you have successfully enabled USB Debugging on your HTC U Ultra/U Play.
Note: USB Debugging should only be enabled when you need it. Leaving it enabled all the time is kind of a security risk for that this mode grants you high-level access to your device. Say if you connect your Android phone to a USB charging port in a public location, the port could use the USB access to your phone to access data on your phone or install malware. This could happen when and only when USB debugging mode is enabled. To disable USB Debugging and other developer options when you don't need them, slide the switch at the top of the screen to OFF.
