Enabling “Developer Options” Selection
- From the Home screen, select “Apps“.

Is there a way to do this from a command line? Our phone LCD died but the phone is otherwise working properly. I could try guessing at what to tap on the various screens but I’d rather do this from a command line interface if possible. Any suggestions?
TIA,
Mike
