I wanted to try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294/. And, I could not find "Developer Options" in settings anywhere? I know I would need to enable USB Connectivity and maybe some other things as well. Anyone know where "Developer Options" is located in settings? Is it there at all?
Go to about phone and tap on build number until prompt says developer options are enabled. Back out to main settings,you should see developer options at the bottom.

That worked. Thx. Where the hell did Samsung reveal this?? It's the weirdest thing I ever saw...
Developer Options has been in most mobile devices for years..

I meant to ask about the method that is used to reveal Developer Options in this phone? I have not seen this method before.
Not sure when Samsung implemented but I have accessed it via build number for other devices for as long as I can recall.

It's a standard android feature.

I'm currently using lenovo A536 with os version 4.4.2. When I enable my dev options only only 3 of them pop out: stay awake, usb debugging and allow mock locations.
So, my question is why don't I see the rest of the options like "Show touches", "Screen updates", "CPU usage", "Pointer location" etc. ?

Some phones' individual software actually remove these extra options. It's quite a hassle, but unfortunately it's just the way it is.
For example, my device doesn't even have Mock Location in the Developer Options - I had to edit the kernel to get that turned on!

Ran into the same issue. Turns out it's the always on display. Turning it off in the settings wont work the only way to do it is disabling it entirely. The only way I found do it is disabling the app with adb or buying package disabler pro online and disabling it with that app.
Hey Jazz,
You hit the nail on the head. I went directly to the PluginAOD service and disabled it.
I really appreciate the help!
What app are you guys disabling as I cannot find it in all apps list
What's the app or service name?
Thanks

I'm using CCSWE App Manager (Samsung) from the Play Store.
Look for "Always on Display" and then disable the PluginAOD service

Does this allow you to still use Always on display?
Edit: I answered my own question, nope.
Hello Folks,
I ran into the same issue for my Note 10 + and I think am on the track of resolving this gracefully. I know of a developer who has created custom AODs which can disable a lot of elements of the system AOD, like clock battery etc for Note 9.
I have just contacted him here on the forum requesting for a paid version to fix this issue. It's just about removing a few lines of code from the AOD app which will resolve the issue.
Can you please support my post here and request Mr. Ash Man for help ? I am sure he will be able to fix it. Pls go here to support and read about his AOD mods. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80135868&postcount=223

There's a work around where you don't have to disable AOD or install any other apps. It's posted in one of the other half dozen threads about this issue. A quick search, or even just browsing the thread titles, and you should find it pretty easy.
Wow, what a helpful post. Thanks for providing no help or guidance to these answers with a simple link. If you can't halp, then don't comment
There is an option now to turn it off now (not sure if it is in android 10 only). Go to
Settings -> Display -> go to the bottom and search "Show charging information"

As per the title, I've enabled the Developer Options menu by tapping the build number 7 times, the entry appears in the Settings menu but when I try to open it I get a message : "You must first Enable Developer Options". Is there another setting hidden somewhere else ? I can't find anything by using the built-in search engine.

Hello, No there isn't.
Reboot the phone, tap build number again 7/8 times and see if it works again. If your on branded firmware it's sometimes disabled.

I already tried this several times before posting here, and I'm running the stock Samsung ROM. Weird thing is it used to work some time ago.
Like two or three months ago, i opened up the developer settings with the "tap 7 times on the build number" method. And i used it, then i wanted to turn it off. To do this: i went to my application settings, found the "settings" app and cleared data and the cache. With this method, my developer settings gone.
So, i wanted to turn it on again couple of days ago, tapped on the build number and a pop-up showed up like this:
"No need, developer mode has already been enabled"
Then when i go to the main settings page, where the developer settings were in, there was no developer settings.
And yes, i know where the developer settings exactly is. So please don' t answer me like "check again", "tap on the build number for seven times", "restart your phone" or something like these.
And no, since i cant reach to the developer settings, i can't open the "OEM unlock" and "USB debugging" settings.
And i also tried the "Activity launcher" app but it didn't work too.
Please help...
Did you thy this one?

Just reset the phone if you really need dev options
From what can tell despite being enabled, I can no longer see developer options in settings. I'm assuming this happened after I rooted, because I had been in the setting before. I tried a few searches but they were all related to how to enable developer option.
You may need to re-enable the developer options again by clicking the "Build" number a bunch of time in the "about" section of settings, then developer options should re-appear in settings.

ok, yea that was the first thing i did when I was unable to locate it. I even searched it but nothing came up. What's odd is I kept going back, scrolling through thinking I was missing something...after maybe the 4th time I searched it again, despite it not working previously, but it showed up. So i am able to access it through searching, but I still don't see it in the settings list.
OK,
Might be a dumb question, but you do know that to get to "Developer" options you first need to go into "Settings", then "System", then drop down "Advanced", then scroll down and second from the bottom is "developer options".
If it's not there, then maybe go back into developer options using the search as you stated, then turn off developer options via the slide switch at the top, then re-enable it using the build taps and see if it then adds it back into settings.

wow, wtf. I used developer options already on this phone to enable usb debugging.
I had no issues finding it, I swear it was just in the list with the regular settings, the ones with the color icons next to them....but you're right, it was right where you said it was. Doesn't look familiar at all considering I've already accessed the setting a couple times before.
Thanks man, idk how long it would've taken me to figure that out.
