Hey guys, the problems is as explained in the title. I've tried tapping 5, 7 or even 100 times and "you're now developer" message never shows up, neither "you're xxx steps from becoming developer". Any idea what might be wrong? Got Android 6.0 last updated on January. The phone is from Australian provider, is it possible that they blocked access to "dev options"? Is there any other way to enable USB debugging?

Does that actually work in all phones? I always thought it was specific to Nexus phones...
It has worked on every phone I've ever owned. And it works fine on the Moto G series

It's possible the provider blocked access, and it's also possible that the phone is defective. There's no way to tell from here, you have to talk to the provider.

If you installed Lineage then you already have an unlocked bootloader, it will never relock unless you go through a whole drawn out process to reflash stock a special way... what are you trying to get into developer settings for?
