Hi Guys,
I've recently updated my Rogers HOX to Android 4.1 via the OTA system update. during that process, I inadvertently left some developer options enabled which have caused them to be enabled even when all developer options are disabled (via the main toggle).
does anyone know how to "reset" the defaults so that when I leave the developer options off, it will keep all developer options disabled?
The two options in particular are:
Show touches
Pointer location
thanks,

The main toggle is only for allowing access to the dev options, it doesn't turn them all off. You would have to reenable access to them and then turn them off manually.
Yeah... I tried that. Even with those two options disabled, once I flick the master toggle off, the two settings turn on again.
Why not just leave the developer options on? It doesn't hurt anything

Yeah, that's what I've done for now. Its just a nitpicky thing for me and I'm new to android so I thought a change like this would be possible somehow.
Hello everyone, do you guys have any idea why my developer option suddenly cant be turn on? Even the options under it like forcue GPU rendering and USB debugging mode can't be enabled. The switch has been disabled.
Please see screenshot attached.
Im not unlocked nor rooted. 100% stock.
Okay, i got my own problem solved. I just data cleared the [Settings] app under app manager. Then re-tapped build number multiple times again to re-show the developer option menu and bam! All options are now changeable again.
I don't know what happened but my theory is that it got messed up when I updated the phone. I initially enabled the developer option when I first got the phone yesterday. Upon arrival at my home, I updated to the latest build. After that the developer option was disabled.
Hi everyone,
I'm on a FIDO (Canada) Pixel 4XL with OTA Android 11 and could not get the "enable OEM unlocking" to actually stick. It would ask for my screen password as if it was going to work and then immediately remain OFF. GRRRRR
After much reading and general frigging around I decided to "turn off" Developer mode and try turning it back on as that seems to fix everything these days LOL.
Bingo, most of the options became greyed out but OEM Unlock remained accessible. I toggled it to ON and woohoo it stayed there.
Turned Developer mode back on and all is well.
Hope this helps someone out there as I hadn't come across this odd yet easy fix.
I waited 7 days and it didn't show up in developer options, I have the SM-F700U1/DS, Android 10
Developer options?
Go to Settings, About Phone, Software Information and tap Build Number repeatedly until Developer Options gets enabled.
