Donnow this guy looks weird
Maybe he is talking about the menu in settings/Developer Options. (Clicking in Build number that enable the Developer option in HOX.
Then he should have made himself more clear. I know he knows English pretty well (helped him before) so this sounds very silly

I dont think it is about the menu, if Developer Options are enabled the menu shouldn't be hidden
Ah well maybe he is back online to Shine a light on this matter one of these days
Doesn't look we will find out what he really ment. Tho if he was trying to hide the developer options in settings he could do it by deleting /data/data/com.android.settings/shared_prefs/development.xml
Obviously needs root. After reboot the developer options will be again hidden.

Edit: also clearing the data of the settings app will do the trick.

Hey guys.
Does anyone know whether it's possible to switch off the "flip-to-mute-call" feature? I suspect this feature to be the reason why my dialer drains my battery after making a call!
Maybe there is a config file where i can disable this feature? Couldn't find it in the settings...
Thx

Thx for your answer! When i open up settings/sound and look under receive call there is only the option to disable "Turn to Speaker" (dunno whether its like that in English, my phone lang is set to German) . I have already disabled that feature!

No, flip to mute feature cannot be disabled; you have to choose one of two options. This has been causing me to miss important calls even when the phone is not "flipped" by me and it's exasperating - to say the least. How stupid of them to assume everybody would want this?

You have not added anything new to the discussion.
No offense, but you are spamming thread.
I was trying to put device in debug mode... just realized that there is no developers settings anymore.
How could that be??
Go to settings, about phone and keep tapping build number. That should do it.
It is hidden. Like the jellybean pic. Sorry I don't know where it is though

Tap the build number seven times in the 'about phone' section in settings. Should unlock it for you!

You have to to click on the build number in settings like 7 times then it becomes visible!
Cheers, have fun with 4.2
Thank all of you for that!
It worked!

I find it, thanks
Hi,
I needed to use ADB to root my wife phone. Once done, I'll like to Hide the Developer Options as she will never need that option. It's safer that way, as I suppose I can make "Developer Options" visible again using the 7 taps trick.
Thanks for any help.

Wrong Section. Read the forum rules.
Moved to Q&A. Please dont post questions in Development forums.
No need to hide it. Tell her stay out of it.

Woman. What did I tell you about pushing buttons you didn't understand.
Factory reset and don't unlock it again. You'd probably want to reset anyway between users.

So then it appears that the 7 taps trick can only Un-hide "Developer Options" but cannot hide it again. Too bad.
I wonder why this "7 taps" could not be designed as a kind of toggle.
You can deactivate them if that's enough for you (and if you haven't already seen the option).
Just go to the developer settings and in the top right corner you should have an on-off switch.
Clear data on the settings app

confirmed, it works.
nexus 4, 4.2.2, no root.
Long tap on Settings in the app list, drag it into "App info" at the top.
Clear data ... poof ... Developer options is hidden again.

If you already root and don't want to losing your settings just install root explorer..open it and navigate to data/data/com.android.settings/shared_prefs/development.xml..edit and change value "true" to "false"..save and exit..then delete development.xml.bak..after that go to settings>apps>all>Settings..open it then force stop..then open Settings app to check it..voila! developer options disappeared!

Hi,
That's a geek worthy trick thanks very much. BTW, the Slim Bean ROM seems to do a little bit different. If I turn Settings / Developers Options off. The item disappears from Settings automatically. Seems to make more sense than the behavior of stock JB.
Since this was my first ever Samsung device, I had a hard time figuring out how to enable USB Debugging mode. Google and Youtube saved the day. Here is how:
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
I think this is an Android thing not specific to Samsung. Started with Jelly Bean I think
Since you just figured that out you probably don't know about the Easter egg for jellybean, Google that, its almost the same process to open it and get your little surprise.

I know about that one. I just switched to Samsung from being with HTC since the beginning. They've always had the developer options in the settings menu.
Here's another thing in the realm of usb debugging. If you need to use adb make sure the screens on so you can accept the adb connection ( drive me crazy why it wouldn't connect)

The hiding is a android 4.2+ thing google did because (normal *cough Apple) users would get confused as to what the developer options do. And would muff something up....
By the way , AssassinsLament thanks for the original code and work you did regarding TWRP best recovery on android ??

Any way to remove the Developer option or will it always stay there once you reveal it? Sorry, first time JB user here. Coming from the G2x. We never officially got the good stuff.

It's really no big deal at all, but I think it would be neat to turn it on and off whenever you need it. Just in case someone else feels like playing in your settings for whatever reason. Not that they would get very far in the first place. It would just make a neat little feature imo.

Thank you so much. I cannot thank you enough. I thought I had gone crazy. Between my wife and I we have every Galaxy phone made to date two Google TV's and 3 Asus Tablets among many other android devices as I am an app developer. This is the longest I've owned a phone without root (4 days) Also my Asus TF tablet has been stuck without a recovery for weeks and I couldn't find developer mode. I cannot believe I didn't get the memo on this one. just too busy with work and school. Thanks a million times over
Thank you, could not figure out how to get to this menu.

Thanx a million! Was looking for this for quite some time now.
You can also do *#0808# and select mtp+adb. It's the exact same thing, it takes less time, and you don't have an obvious developer options menu on your phone should you take it in for service.

There is a way to turn developer options off. At the top right corner of the screen when in the dev op screen youll see that the "on" button is green. Simply slide that button to the left and dev ops will be turned off.
I know this isn't about Xperia PLAY, but since I also own the device and have frequented this side of XDA for a long time, I thought maybe awesome folks from this forum can help me, too, in a rather unfortunate problem for my fresh new device.
My new phone's developer options list seem to lack the more important ones. Please see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...per-options-please-help-t2821392/post54262553
Thanks in advance!

I know that tapping the Build Number seven times should make the 'hidden' Developer Options appear. But as you can see, the Developer Options is NOT HIDDEN, it's incomplete.
Aside from that, this model has no Build Number as you can see on the screenshot posted in the above thread. Instead, it has Model Number, which, if tapped seven times, doesn't do anything.
Also, another problem, Notifications in Kitkat seem to make the screen wake up every time there is a notification. I fiddled with Notification and Messaging settings and there seems to be no way to turn this feature off. Any tips?
