N920W8 USB Debugging Greyed out. How to fix? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Canadian Note 5 N920W8 and USB Debugging is greyed out and I can't find anyway to turn it on. Can someone help me with this?
Thanks

Maybe try restarting the device? I've got USB Debugging available to me on my N920W8. I don't know if there's a way to hide developer options and re-enable it, but I'd try that as well to see.

Thanks for your reply. Tried Power Off, restart, turned Developer Option off rebooted then turned the DO back on but still USB debugging is greyed out.
Do you think Factory Data reset would help?

Problem Solved:
Found out that My Knox removes the USB Debugging option. Uninstalled My Knox and the USB Debugging is now working.

Ah, glad to see you've fixed it! I disabled any Knox features so that would probably explain why mine wasn't greyed out.

Softkeys not workng?

Hey guys,
Updated using decad3nce's 1.1 update & 1.1ghz kernel. Everything works great, except when I click the back button on softkeys nothing happens. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan
You need to turn on usb debugging, from Decad3nce's Q&A
Where is USB debugging? How do I enable it?
A: Launch Nook Color tools(it's an application in your app drawer), hit "development", then check USB debugging. Then Reboot.

The reboot might not be necessary however, usb debugging might turn off without notice so if the back button not working again, check usb debugging and turn it on...
Usb debugging might already turn on. You need turn it off and then turn on it.
Same problem here
My USB debugging is enabled. I've reset it multiple times, but still. No back button in softkeys

I rebooted it and turned off usb debugging, but the mass storage I can't turn off: I have to choose between MTP and PTP.
I upgraded Kies to the latsest version , unfortunately no connection.
I tried Kies via Wifi and it works, fine for me.
BUT I prefer Kies via USB. Is there anybody else with the same problem?

Is your trouble on the phone or on PC? you don't need to have USB debugging to be on for Rooting.
Was your USB cable plugged in while trying to turn it on?? USB debugging can't be toggled with USB plugged.

I tried both unplugged and plugged. When I was trying to assign a custom app for debugging it wont list anything. Kinda fixed it by running a separate USB Debugging app with busybox.
Was trying to unlock the bootloader.
One more thing, I've been waiting for like 5 minutes now for the bootloader to unlock, it gives me a "Running factory reset for the first Bootloader Unlock :lease Wait::" is that normal ?

Did you enable it by tapping on build number or Version number 5+ times?
