This is a really harmless and funny prank to troll android users. It will not do any damage to phone and takes 15 seconds to setup. Just watch video to fully understand it and i have also written step by step instructions.
Activate Developer Mode





Its not on by default to turn it on do the following
- Go to settings
- systems
- about phone
- Here you will find build number tap it seven times
- go back to settings then system there developer option would have appeared now.
For better understanding the follow the images you will know how to do it.
Go to Developer Options

Turn on the developer option. Some phones will have different UI but mostly its same procedure to get developer options. Developer options are hidden by default.
If you are not able to find it just google for your model number you will get it.
Now Magic Time



Once you are in developer mode scroll down and find these two option by default they would be turned off turn them on to see the magic
Show hardware layer updates
Show GPU view updates
As soon as you will turn them on screen will start to flash as if some problem is there but i assure you it is not your device is still safe these options are for application developers to help them in development of app.
Do this to your friend with expensive new phone and see his face.
To bring back to normal just turn them off again
You Can Do More
There are many other options there and you can do much more things like turn off sound of speakere etc.
If you are stuck any where and cannot turn if off just go back to top and turn off developer mode it self everything will become normal again.
Full effect of the prank is shown in the video with the instructions.
