Could it possibly be impossible to enter developer mode? If so, could it be possible to somehow flip the write protect bit "by hand"?

- sp332 5y agoSome Chromebooks do have a physical switch, like in the battery compartment. I don't know of any Chromebooks where it's actually impossible to enter developer mode.
- livueta 5y agoEvery Chromebook model I've ever had has had a physical switch or screw that can be removed/toggled somewhere on the motherboard to unset the write-protect bit. e.g. https://joshuawoehlke.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/dell-3120-wp-screw.png https://joshuawoehlke.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/dell-31...
