How does one enable Developer Options on an HTC One?


I am trying to set up remote debugging on an HTC One.

On the Android web site, and the Marmalade web site, they say I need to "enable on-device developer options", but I have not found Developer Options on my phone as instructed.

They write:

To access these settings, open the Developer options in the system Settings. On Android 4.2 and higher, the Developer options screen is hidden by default. To make it visible, go to Settings > About phone and tap Build number seven times. Return to the previous screen to find Developer options at the bottom.

Well, on my HTC One (running Android version 4.4.2), the closest thing I have to "Settings > About phone > Build Number" is "Settings > About > Software version", and clicking it seven times does nothing at all.

How can I enable Developer Options?


Solution

  • Ok, in the process of typing this in, I found where it is. It's:

    Settings > About > Software information > More > Build number

    And that DOES respond to clicking seven times.

    Hopefully, this will help someone else.
