How To Turn On Developer Mode On Your Chromebook Works In 2024 Does Not Work On A School Chromebook. Chromebooks at Amazon amzn.to/3OqtLYV In this video I show you how to switch on developer mode on a Chromebook. This is also sometimes called Dev Mode on a Chromebook. This method still works in 2024. Regarding how to turn on developer mode on a school Chromebook. This can’t be done as the school will have the Chromebook locked down under an administrator account and will be controlled by the school’s Google account administrator. Also, if you have a Chromebook that has any administrator account control on it, you can not turn on developer mode on a Chromebook like this either. TIP FOR BUYING A USED CHROMEBOOK: When buying a used Chromebook make sure that it is not under any administrator control. If it is ask the person who you are buying it from to unlock the Chromebook first and then check it to make sure. To check it, just go through what I show you in this video to turn on developer mode on the Chromebook. Even if you’re not interested in developer mode on the Chromebook, going through the process will definitely let you know if the Chromebook has been unlocked. Because if the Chromebook allows you to turn on developer mode, this will mean that it is unlocked. You don’t have to continue into the final step to activate developer mode on the Chromebook, you can just restart the Chromebook without allowing it to complete the developer mode setup and it will boot into ChromeOS in regular mode without developer mode. THINGS TO DO BEFORE TURNING ON DEVELOPER MODE ON YOUR CHROMEBOOK: Don’t forget to back up any important data on your Chromebook before turning on developer mode, as developer mode will format the Chromebook’s storage and wipe all the data off of it, or as Google it, a Power Wash. So if you have any important data or files, such as photos, videos, music, documents etc. Do a backup of these files to your cloud storage or an external storage drive. You can always copy these files back to your Chromebook after you have added your account on it after turning on developer mode. Also, don’t forget that developer mode will allow you to install APK files, which are the app installer files, that didn’t come from the Google Play Store. This means that the APK files have not been checked for viruses etc. So just be very careful with what you install onto your Chromebook once it is in developer mode.

I got into developer mode on an HP Chromebook but had no success with booting to a USB drive I tried crossystem dev_boot_usb=1 dev_boot_legacy=1 rebooted use ctr l no boot screen. tried it again it said to use dev_boot_altfw instead tried didn't work in the shells comments it said to enable_usb_boot it said success use ctrl u to bring up boot options none of these lets me boot from a USB drive if you know can point me to someones who might know whats going on thanks
I don't know if you can see this but, can we meet on discord? I wanna put my chrome OS on developer mode but when I try stuff like this, it doesn't work. Please help. The main problem is when I press those 3 buttons, It keeps wanting to shutdown my Chromebook. Just to let you know, I have a Acer Chromebook.
I enabled and disabled it and just added my normal account, not my school account. Now my device isn't managed by the school anymore. Thanks! Edit 2 years later: Apologies, I forgot to mention I was leaving the school and I owned the Chromebook. DO NOT DO TURN ON DEVELOPER MODE ON A SCHOOL CHROMEBOOK YOU DO NOT OWN. I had been sick on the day they showed us how to remove our accounts and I resorted to TH-cam videos to figure out on my own.
I have a school crome book and I want to enter my personal gmail so they don’t see what I do but it’s wired by my school district and I have to give back the computer soon so idk how I would change it back if that’s possible
I was following without the audio and didn't expect the beeps- out of no where those beeps went like "B E E P B E E P" and I nearly had a heart attack-
I'm glad I watched this video, I was going to install an emulator apk app for Gamecube emulator but when I heard that doing this involves wiping my entire chromebook clean, I decided against it before it was too late so thanks for the tip. I'm not going to format my entire computer for one emulator, it's not worth it
Great explanation! I just have a doubt about it tho. If my Chromebook is managed by someone else, does this process remove that administration so that I can activate Linux I've got to activate it, but I don't exactly know if I have to reset it or if there's another method to do so
Hi Hugo. For various reasons, this function does not always work on all Chromebooks. However, if it does work on yours then your Chromebook will be completely clean with no administrator other than yourself and you can then do whatever you want. Cheers, Dave.
I clicked on the video because all I saw was How To Turn On Developer Mode - DO NOT TURN DEVELOPER MODE and was like wa-what? The full title has clarified everything lol.
That’s why I don’t use chromebooks guys all it is a blank page that you see it doesn’t allow game engines on chromebook it’s better to use windows chromebook is Junk I just got windows 10 for Christmas by the way my chromebook battery is trash it dies fast after charging it so I would not recommend getting a chromebook stick with windows 10 guys chromebook is a $15 dollar labtop if you pay more then a chromebook then you just got ripped off don’t get it no more cell it on market
I absolutely love this channel and everything you do on here, I’ve subbed and will keep an eye on your page. Thank you for making quality videos, this was really helpful!
Thank you! I got to download an Chinese education app for my son to learn. But could you tell me, it the setting a one-time setting, or it lasts forever? I mean, if next time, I want do download another app out of google play, do I need to do it again or I don’t need to? Thank you!
dude thank you so much for telling me that this wipes everything I was about to go in blindly but I just watched a video just in case I could have lost everything if it wasn't for you.
You are very welcome. Many people show how to do developer mode but I’ve not seen anyone clearly explain that all your local data gets deleted. My video is more designed to put people off doing developer mode on a chrome rather than switching it on because most people don’t realise what’s involved and that all your local data gets deleted. Cheers, Dave.
Hi. I'm from Liverpool England but part of my heritage is from Saint Vincent in the West Indies (Caribbean). That's where my surname, Harry, comes from. Cheers, Dave.
Thank you very much! I did the procedure but I was avoiding turning off the device because of the initialization with beeps calling attention in classes 😂 Now I know how to skip this 😂
before my junior year of highschool started we had to get a chrome book to keep with us for online school but then next year senior year my school transferred me to a different school because of my low credits and now I graduated early from that other school should I keep the chrome book or just return it? idk if the school would give a “fine”
ok, so i have a chrome book from school. and since we’re getting new chrome books for next year,, will it affect the new chrome book i’m getting? like with my school email.
Good question, hopefully he responds, have you done it alrdy? Does it wipe docs from my school account completely or does it just wipe away the computers docs
5:55 it says enable device verification for you but it shows a completely new screen for me, i have the 2022 HP Chromebook and I can't access that screen
Hi John. Thank you so much for the comment. One of the reasons why I done this video is because there's a few other similar videos out there that don't explain that you delete all the data. I'd done this video partly to put people off from doing it if they'd not realised they'd lose the data, or to at least make sure that people knew to back up first. Again, thank you for noticing and understanding the warning, it really does help to know that people do get the point to the videos. Cheers, dave.
@DavidHarry Hi David, so now that I have downloaded the APK apps I needed, what will happen if I return the Chromebook back to 'non developer' mode...as in switching back to normal. Will the APK's be removed or will they remain? Hope that makes sense, thank you Sir.
Hi. If you go back to “none developer mode” all the data will be erased and the Chromebook essentially becomes a fresh Chromebook, ready to be re-logged into. This video may be helpful th-cam.com/video/K62agbgzwKo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mSnpPifHozZBktuw Cheers, Dave.
@@itsyaedgyfriend9929 No and yes! I think it deletes all your files like images but if u have a saved email u can get your saved searches and stuff like that
I reset my school Chromebook, I didn't get in any trouble, but just because the IT teacher on our school is chill. You can reset your school Chromebook if your IT Teacher is chill.
So I came back to this video bc I remembered I forgot to like it when I got a chrome book back on last Christmas, I'm just now realizing he has pokemon music as the background music that or I'm just mistaken
hey i have a home chromebook but my school account is on this chromebook, im doing this to get a mod for a game on my normal account, will this wipe the data from my school account and my current account too? because i need the school account
Thank you so, so much for this tutorial! I get your warnings (which are not boring at ALL because you just want to warn and give us caution). Thanks again!
@@DavidHarry So, i am thinking about doing this, but I still have some Q's that I would like answered. 1) Will it open the "OS verification is off" screen every time I open my Chromebook now? 2) do I have to resign-in every time I power on? I am just trying to be careful and know what i am geting into if I were to do this. If you are reading this thank you so much for the amazing tutorial. Cheers!
@@isaacseehausen This comment was 6 months ago, but I'll still answer. Yes, you will see the OS verification screen every time. All you have to do is press ctrl+d. Secondly, you will only have to sign in if you sign out like normal, but I assume you are talking about having to sign up every time. If so, then no. Then again you probably already made up your mind about all this. oh well
4:23 after i do this step it pops up with a different message. Os verification is OFF Press ENTER to confirm you wish to turn OS verification on. Your system will reboot and local data will be cleared to go back press ESC i press control d but it wont allow the command? 🙁
is there a way to do it on a chromebook labeled dell at the bottom of the screen because that tactic isnt working on it (btw it is a chromebook just different from the others)
i didn’t know that it deletes all ur files! i legit lost photos from 2 years ago and i’m currently crying. i didn’t see the video in time and did it on my own
Hi. Thanks for the question. If you check the description I've just added a link to a video I've done showing how to switch off developer mode. Cheers, Dave.
I’m sad😞I’m not gonna do it, I’m scared my schools gonna find out or something bad will happen I just wish there was a way to by pass my schools blocks so I can’t get games and a good video editor.
Hi Dave. Would appreciate your input here. During the preparation for developer mode. An error appeared in the top corner that says: "Exec of /use/bin/pv failed:: Input/output error" So it's stuck there. What should I do? Hope you can help. Thanks in advance

Thank you so much, I've been wondering how to do this for quite some time!
You are very welcome 👍
sorry David im so scared to do this and thanks for sharing ur brain to us
i like that your warning are the exact reasons why i'm enabling dev mode lol
Same lol
5:55 it says enable device verification for you but it shows a completely new screen for me, i have the 2022 HP Chromebook and I can't access that screen
You just got a sub this video really helped everyone else's videos made no sense but yours did 😁
Hi Jonathan. Thanks for the sub and I'm glad the video made sense :) Cheers, Dave.
Very informative and thx for the explanation! I'm sure you just saved tons of people from losing their data
Hi John. Thank you so much for the comment. One of the reasons why I done this video is because there's a few other similar videos out there that don't explain that you delete all the data. I'd done this video partly to put people off from doing it if they'd not realised they'd lose the data, or to at least make sure that people knew to back up first. Again, thank you for noticing and understanding the warning, it really does help to know that people do get the point to the videos. Cheers, dave.
@DavidHarry Hi David, so now that I have downloaded the APK apps I needed, what will happen if I return the Chromebook back to 'non developer' mode...as in switching back to normal. Will the APK's be removed or will they remain? Hope that makes sense, thank you Sir.
Hi. If you go back to “none developer mode” all the data will be erased and the Chromebook essentially becomes a fresh Chromebook, ready to be re-logged into. This video may be helpful th-cam.com/video/K62agbgzwKo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mSnpPifHozZBktuw Cheers, Dave.
1 min in and I've decided not to do it... thanks I'm sure the rest of the video is a very good...
Hi. That's a great decision, at least you won't be messing anything up. Cheers, dave.
lmao😂 i'm fr bouta do this to all my friends at school
LMAOOOO
wait did you try it
Did it work? Loo
Hi David and thanks for your video, please can you tell me where is the tangent ( refresh) i can't find it on my tangentboard ?
Ok... I was going to do this for an among us apk mod menu but now I changed my mind.
Thanks.
You’re very welcome. Cheers, Dave.
I did this for games :D
Thank you so much this video was really helpful!!!

I did this for hax lol i need a alt for that.
@@itsyaedgyfriend9929 No and yes! I think it deletes all your files like images but if u have a saved email u can get your saved searches and stuff like that
I reset my school Chromebook, I didn't get in any trouble, but just because the IT teacher on our school is chill. You can reset your school Chromebook if your IT Teacher is chill.
I accidentally put it in developer mode how do I turn it back on
Thank you, it helps to know someone knows what there doing!😁
Still works! You're a legend
Awesome 👍 Cheers, Dave.
So I came back to this video bc I remembered I forgot to like it when I got a chrome book back on last Christmas, I'm just now realizing he has pokemon music as the background music that or I'm just mistaken
This helpee alot thank you
Glad it helped
hey i have a home chromebook but my school account is on this chromebook, im doing this to get a mod for a game on my normal account, will this wipe the data from my school account and my current account too? because i need the school account
Thank you so, so much for this tutorial! I get your warnings (which are not boring at ALL because you just want to warn and give us caution). Thanks again!
Hi. Thank you for your very kind comment and understanding the point of the warnings. Cheers, Dave.
@@DavidHarry So, i am thinking about doing this, but I still have some Q's that I would like answered. 1) Will it open the "OS verification is off" screen every time I open my Chromebook now? 2) do I have to resign-in every time I power on? I am just trying to be careful and know what i am geting into if I were to do this. If you are reading this thank you so much for the amazing tutorial. Cheers!
@@isaacseehausen This comment was 6 months ago, but I'll still answer. Yes, you will see the OS verification screen every time. All you have to do is press ctrl+d. Secondly, you will only have to sign in if you sign out like normal, but I assume you are talking about having to sign up every time. If so, then no. Then again you probably already made up your mind about all this. oh well
Hey, I turned on developer mode and I can't seem to download anything on google?
Lol
Blicko 😂
Thanks Only good video
So nice of you, thanks 👍 Cheers, Dave.
Whew! Thanks man, I can now play the games I want to play and I’m glad I had everything on a drive.
Thanks to this man for solving my problem that was quite difficult to solve... Thanks 👍
Happy to help

I did this and my dad went on my computer and reset it again

4:23 after i do this step it pops up with a different message.
Os verification is OFF
Press ENTER to confirm you wish to turn OS verification on. Your system will reboot and local data will be cleared
to go back press ESC

Will it stay in developer mode if I power it on normally? Or do I have to do this every time I want to go into dev mode
Hi. Once in developer mode it stays that way until you want to switch back to normal mode. Cheers, Dave.

Hi Dave. Would appreciate your input here. During the preparation for developer mode. An error appeared in the top corner that says: "Exec of /use/bin/pv failed:: Input/output error"
So it's stuck there. What should I do? Hope you can help. Thanks in advance
