Developer Options

[EvinLeigh]

If you are looking for the Developer Options, they are hidden. To access them follow these steps:

Settings, General, About Phone, Software Information, tap Build number 7 times. On the 4th tap you'll get a pop up message. Just keep going. On the 7th tap it will tell you You are now a developer.

To view the Developer options now just go back to General Settings and the option will now appear above About Phone.

Vwola, ENJOY!!!

no no no, why they made it kinda hard to remember where to GET the developer options. I can understand not wanting them to be so readily available so the average person doesn't mess something up on their phone and not realize how to fix it. But just make it easily accessible for us who want to use it.

It is easily accessible. It's been the same method to unlock the options for a long time

True, but every time i have a phone that doesn't have it unlocked yet, it takes me a day to remember how to do it because you only do it once after you get a new phone lol

I've only ever done it on this phone, but I know how to do it on all phones now. It's the same
