Higher battery consumption when developer mode has been activated?

xluigi — Fri, 10 Mar 2017 17:56:08 GMT

I have activated the developer mode without knowing exactly what is it and being not aware that it is not possible to come back (removing the icon "developer" and restoring the same conditions as before the activation, done by tapping several time on the build number).

I know that that it is possible to "come back" by clearing all the data or making the factory reset but I do not like both the solutions so I will keep this status.

However I have now deactivated the developer option menu but I am wondering whether the existence of such developer options may anyway entail an higher battery consumption.

Nothing to worry abouth. You can set the speed/duration off window and animation transition below. Excample Like i do switch off the windows and transition animation and animation duration to 0.5 sec. You notice fingerprint unlock is faster and fast tru UI browser

Hi @xluigi,

Having developer options activated on your device will not impact your battery life unless you start enabling certain functions within it.

There is no way to remove this as far as I am aware, without doing a factory reset on your phone.
