Default [TUTORIAL] How to view wireless password if forgotten?

Use Root explorer, then go to
/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

In the file, you can see the "ssid"
"ssid" is the name of the wireless network

and you can see the "key_mgmt"
"key_mgmt" means the password of the wireless network,

if there is no password, it will show NONE

hope this helps ^^
