How to enable Developer mode on Samsung SmartTV 2018?

I want to enable the Developer mode on Samsung Smart TV 2018 (Tizen, model code: UE49NU8005). The steps given in Samsung's Developer website is not working.
I have the issue at step 1.c, in the 'Apps panel' on pressing 1,2,3,4,5 the developer mode configuration popup does not appear (I am signed in to the TV using Samsung developer account).

Somewhere on the web I came across somebody saying that some Samsung models only work with an actual keyboard to type the numbers; the remote control won't work. That proved true for my 2020 "the Frame" TV: the remote would not work when I entered "12345", but when I connected a blue tooth keyboard and typed the same numbers with that, it went into developer mode the way it's supposed to.

I had the same problem, solved by typing the sequence 123456 very quickly.

If someone has the same problem, I could solve it by leaving only one account registered (the developer), even though the developer account was the one that was activated, the window did not come out after entering 12345, so just remove all the accounts at the exception of the developer. P.S. My TV is 2020 with tizen 5.0

I had the same issue but after signing in with the dev account, I turned off my tv > turned it back on and then on apps panel, I pressed 12345 on my clicker and I saw the dev mode pop up.

  1. First of all, be assured that you are signed in with the same account that you created on Samsung developer forum.
  2. If so, then open apps panel on your device by pressing the smart hub key and then navigating to all apps tile.
  3. After this press the numeric "12345" keys in sequence and immediately, then you will see the developer mode popup on the device.
  4. Finally turn on the developer mode from the popup and restart your device.

Note: Screenshots are attached below.
