ven if you’re leery about rooting
your Android phone and
installing a custom ROM, you
can still try out some features
and settings that aren’t turned on by default.
Every Android phone comes equipped with


the ability to enable Developer options,
which lets you test some features and access
parts of the phone that are usually locked
away. As you might expect, Developer
options are hidden away by default, but it’s
easy to enable if you know where to look.
