Step 1

              Finding the Build Number               

• First, we need to find the Build Number.
• Usually you can find it under About Phone > Build Number or System > About Phone > Build Number, but since it varies from device to device using the search function is usually the easiest way.

              Unlocking developer options               

• Now you just need to tap the Build number repeatedly, until you get a confirmation message saying “You are now a developer!”. I already enabled developer options on my device, so I don´t need to do it again.
• You might be prompted to enter your lock screen password, if you have one set up.
