Go into your device Settings menu -> Scroll down to About phone -> scroll down to the Build number and keep tapping it till you see a small toast message stating that your Developer Options has been enabled and then go back just once into the device Settings menu and you'll now see the Developer Options just above the About phone.
Enter the Developer Options menu and scroll down (approximately half way) till you see "Select USB Configuration" and select that. The choice you make here will be the devices "Default" choice for handling the USB connection.
You'll still be able to change it upon demand without changing the default option unless you go back in and change the default option again.
Also, once you have enabled the Developer Options menu, it will remained available at the same location towards the bottom of the device Settings menu.
Good Luck!

[Q] USB Debugging Mode Option on the s4

Hello guys, I have quick questions. I have been having a lot of problems with Samsung Kies:
picture thumbnails not showing
taking forever to sync music
abruptly disconnects halfway
etc.
And i was reading around, realising that it could be due to the USB debugging mode being switched on. I want to switch it off but cant seem to find it anywhere in the settings menu. I know for previous phones you can do so via settings>applications>usb debuggig mode. However, on the s4, i dont even have the 'settings>applications' option... I only have 'settings>application manager
Help appreciated!

USB debug mode is off by default
You have to go to about phone and click on build prop 7 times to enable developer options

Really odd on this one. Settings > More > About Device and then tap the greyed out "build number" line 7 times. Then go back a screen and you'll see Developer Options as a choice in the "more" menu.

It is not enabled by default. You have to go into Settings, select about phone, and then repeatedly tap on Build Number until it activates developer options. Once you have it activated, press back, and Developer Options should be listed in the main settings menu.
Also, in the future, questions should go in the Q&A section, not General.

Any help if you go to: Settings -->General --> Applications --> Choose an app --> uncheck "Show Notifications"
ps. Not exactly sure did I give correct names to menu, as my phone language is not english.
pss. You should get there also if you drop notification bar down and long press the notification --> It give something like App Info --> then uncheck "Show Notifications"

For some reason this does not persist after a reboot. Is this by design, or is it a bug? The toggle is switched off after a reboot, but the notifications are there anyways.
Root> go to es file explorer> delete or rename knox> reboot.
This is how I made it work on note 2.

It acts same way in my phone, so it looks like a bug, but it doesn't matter for me as I don't boot my phone so often it could get annoying..
If I need to re-check them once or twise a week, no big deal
Anyway I hope Samsung will fix it
Yep, it reverts after a reset.
An apology for bumping a thread older than my nephew, but has anyone found a non root method for 7.0 n. ??

[guide] Disable Hardware buttons on the fly

So for a long time the only issue I have with this device is that while writing on the device, or holding it watching videos or similar accidental pressing of the hardware buttons can be a pain. I always thought it would be ideal to quickly be able to turn the hardware buttons on and off. As it turns out this was always available without root, but not obviously, so if this is of interest read below:
To disable the hardware buttons you need to enable interaction control. This allows you to disable access to certain parts of the screen (not needed), and is typically intended for expo type use, or giving the tablet to children. However while active this mode also cuts all input from the home, back and menu buttons ( ).
Open settings, Device, Accessibility, then scroll all the way to the bottom, and turn on interaction control.
If you read the text it tells you that this can be enabled with the home/volume down combo, or a triple press of home if enabled in "direct access". All good, if you are happy with the home/volume down combo you are all set. However the problem is that I would prefer the triple home option, and in my current rom based on stock 4.4.2 (and possibly therefore on stock as well) Samsung seems to have completely omitted the "direct access" option within the settings menu.
Without the ability to activate "direct access" you are stuck with the home/volume down combo as the only way to enable/disable the feature. However I noticed that the "direct access" menu option was available on my galaxy s4, and that Samsung gives the option to import/export accessibility settings between devices. So I quickly enabled the triple home option on my s4, exported the accessibility options and imported them onto my note 10.1 2014. This worked perfectly, and I can now enable or disable the hardware keys with a simple triple press of the home button.
For those of you without access to another samsung device here is the accessibility settings file to import

This doesn't work for me. I get an error telling me it cannot activate while multi-window is in use, even though only one window is open when I attempt this.

You have to un-check multi-window option from pulled down notification first. Samsung should change the meassage to " disable multi window option " rather than say "while multi-window is in use"

Nice. Thank you.
thank you for this. I will be using it later

Can App Scaling to 18.9 full screen be the default?

Is there an option on the LG G6 to make app scaling to full screen 18.9 the default for all new apps?
Each time I install a new app I need to manually go in the app scaling settings and change it to 18.9. I would like the install to do this by default.
There aren't many apps that seem to do anything different with this setting, but I want to try them all to see, and hope that some of them will make a difference.
News360 looks pretty nice in full screen reading.
Thanks!

Thanks, but by "secret menu", do you mean the "developer options" settings menu? I have it activatesd, but I don't see any SVC menu? Or is there another secret menu I don't know about and that I need to activate?
Thanks.
Open "Phone", dial this *#546368#*870#, go to SVC Menu, at the end there is "Force Long Display Mode", turn it ON. Reboot and enjoy.

No, i mean the secret menu, not the developer options, you can access to it by dialing *#546368#*870#
If you don't have an'H870 you have to change those digits with the ones of your model.

Thanks.... while I am at it, different topic, but is there a way to customize the "do not disturb" option so that when I have the phone in "do not disturb" on a schedule, it would be silent but still vibrate? The settings don't give that option.
I don't want to have to manually set my phone to vibrate mode. Instead I want my "do not disturb" schedule to be a "vibrate mode" schedule.
Thanks,
