    Samsung launched Galaxy Xcover 4 back in 2017; a rugged smartphone made for rough outdoor. This phone is Xtreme adventurers, which fill a different niche and are made for people who want a phone that can withstand water, dust, drops, and extreme temperatures. This phone is not for everyone but for rough users who don’t need all the bells and whistles that come with Samsung’s premium Galaxy S series.

    During its lunch, Galaxy Xcover comes with Android 7.0 Nougat software which is totally outdated now! But thanks to the OEM, Android 9.0 Pie official firmware for Galaxy Xcover 4 is available to download and install. If you are an Xcover 4 owner and you are still on Nougat software, you can upgrade your phone to Android Pie using the tutorial given below!

    Galaxy Xcover 4

    We have a detailed manual installation guide on how to install Android Pie on Galaxy Xcover 4 using the Odin flash tool. Please read all the details carefully before proceeding the tutorial.

    We have also mentioned some security tips like backing up your device for safety purpose. Please make sure to read them carefully so that you don’t get stuck in the middle of the tutorial and loss of some data. We won’t be responsible for that.

    Why manual update via Odin?

    Manual installation of Samsung stock firmware is required for the following reasons:

    1. Bricked device: In case, your Galaxy Xcover 4 has been bricked while trying any custom ROM or mods, you can manually update your phone to recover and get back to stock position.
    2. OTA problem: If you aren’t getting direct OTA from Samsung due to carrier or region problem, you can download Samsung stock firmware and flash it to your phone using Odin tool.
    3. Rooted device: Rooting opens the window to customize your Android phone. But sometimes, this root status can break the OTA links. That’s why you might not be able to update your phone directly.
    4. Custom ROM: If you had installed any custom ROM like LineageOS, it is inevitable that there is no way to get official OTA. You need to flash the PDA and other files using Odin to get back to stock ROM.
    5. Bootloop: Facing bootloop issues due to some root apps or some Xposed modules? Manual update will help you!
