Please help me asap

i was just messing and seeing the tweaks i could make on my android 6.0 device (karbonn sparkle V)

i stumbled upon (simulate secondary screen ) and i thought ill see what it is ....... i chose the 4k(secure) option and sudenly my whole screen had this translucent - black layer above my screen and i could not do anything on my phone since that layer was above all buttons and i very stupidly shut my phone screen and started it again only to see my phone locked since i had set a pattern lock.

so the case is i cant unlock my phone since that layer or secondary screen is literally covering my phone

and because i cant unlock my phone i cant get into any sort of recovery or anything

i have been searching for ways to fix this but everywhere i can only see the (stuck in loop ) tutorial which is not my case


please.. please help me i need it fast
the reason i came here as a last resort is because i've seen XDA as very helpful site

My phone is rooted
Karbonn sparkle V (android)
android marshmallow

You can move the secondary screen just move the display by drag and drop move the upward screen down and you can see the Simulate secondary display option then choose the lower is a resolution and move it down and then again to the lower resolution then chose to none and you can remove the secondary display

way out

go to safe mode,
you can googling how to turn safe mode based on your handphone type
and then back to developer option menu, on simulate secondary screen choose -->> none
and restart your phone

it works for me

Well, I'm answering your question from 2023 lol..
First of all you need to turn your phone into 'safe mode' - This safe mode is just like an emergency exit from rough situation.

There are two ways to turn on safe mode.
1. Press and hold the power button
- you'll see two options; to 'power off' or 'restart'
2. Press and hold 'power off' for some few seconds
3. The safe mode interface will pop out asking you whether to 'Reboot to safe Mode'
4. Click on 'Okay' or 'Yes' (But if your screen monitor is not allowing you to click the area, see option 2)
It will reboot to safe mode,.then you can operate your phone and deactivate any developer option setting you did...after deactivating turn off developer option if you want and then 'restart' your phone, it will come back to normal.

Option 2.
1. Turn off your phone by any way you can.
2. Now turn it on, immediately it starts the animation or 3 seconds after you switch it on,.
Press and hold the 'volume down button' until your phone vibrtes
This will take the phone to 'safe Mode' then you can undo all your settings, then restart your phone..

Thanks for reading, I hope this helps? You can email me promisesilver3@gmail.com

Safe mode is the only way...
Power off and then turn on and press volume down key.. and fix the issue in developer option
I also faced this issue and now I fixed myself
