How to enable or disable a specific developer options using adb?

I have found some posts saying to enable developer settings via adb shell settings put global development_settings_enabled 1. But how to enable a specific developer option?

For example, suppose I want to enable "Always show crash dialog" on an Android emulator. Except of physically switching the button, is it possible to programmatically enable it like using adb commands?

Try adb shell settings list global ...once with the option enabled and once with it disabled.

Maybe this one?

private static final String SHOW_FIRST_CRASH_DIALOG_KEY = "show_first_crash_dialog";

  • Got it. You are correct. I used `adb shell settings list secure` and then compared the difference. The `show_first_crash_dialog_dev_option` option changed from 0 to 1. – Richard Hu Feb 13 '22 at 16:58
