How to Turn ON Developer Options in Android



Google has hidden the Android developer options in Android 4.2 (and above), the reason being simple: the developer options are not required by the average android user, and tinkering with these options may lead to abnormal phone behavior (like flickering or odd menu behavior).


In general, changing the Android developer options won’t lead to corrupting your phone’s system or something. However, it may lead to small visual changes and how you interact with your phone, and more importantly, it’s less secure (to ease the process of copying and installing unapproved apps… under development). The most common reason to access the developer options is to enable the USB debugging mode for direct connection between Android phone and a computer to receive commands, but there are many other reasons as well.


Here is the tutorial:
  • Go to “Settings” and tap on “About phone”.
  • Now, tap on “Software information” and you will find the option of “Build number” there.
  • Tap on “Build number” option 7 times and the developer options will be enabled.
Thanks.
