Can't find setting

Jimmy Breikert — Thu, 17 Mar 2022 00:17:09 GMT

So, I want to download and run an APK file, but I need to enable Unknown Sources. After googling, it says I should go under Settings/Personal/Security. But I don't see any Personal tab at all, and can't find any Security at any other place. So how do I enable Unknown Sources, so that I can install any program I want.

Thx!

When you go to download the phone will automatically ask you to do it there and then. It will come up as a setting option and will take you directly to the page were you enable it.

Go to Settings-Biometrics and security - Install unknown apps.

I'm asking help for a TV, not a phone... 😕

I have put the APK file on the USB, but when I plug it into my TV, it doesnt find any files....

Try using the remote to change the source to USB and see if you can find the file that way.

It finds the USB, but it shows no files at all, even though the file is on the USB(checked in computer)... Very strange, because I've read that APK files should work with USB on Tizen OS..

Any update? I don't see any options similar to Settings/Personal/Security/Biometrics on my Q80A.
