Now here are the Android Nougat firmware installation instructions.
- Download Odin3_v3.12.5.zip.
- Unzip the downloaded Zip file on the desktop of your Windows PC.
- Make sure you haveย Samsung USB Driversย installed on your computer.
- Go to Settings> Developer options and enable USB debugging.
- Installing the firmware may wipe the call-log, messages, installed apps, pictures, videos or any data stored on your phone’s internal storage, so don’t forget to backup them as a precaution.
- Unzip the firmware zip file you downloaded from above. You will get a file withย .tar.md5 extension inside the extracted folder.
- Boot your Galaxy A9 Pro into the Download mode. To do so, turn off your phone and press and hold the Volume Down + Home + Power keys at the same time for 2-3 seconds to boot your phone into the Download mode. Release the keys as soon as you see a blue screen with exclamation sign and press the Volume Up key.
- When your phone gets into the Download mode, open the Odin folder double-click the .exe file to launch it.
- Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable that came with your phone.
- When your device is detected by Odin, the ID:COM port will be highlighted (see below).
- Then click the AP button and add the firmware file to it. Since the firmware file is huge in size, it might take some time for it to be added in Odin.
- Having added all files, make sure your Odin’s screen looks like as shown below.
- Finally, click the Start button to initiate the installation and wait until the installation completes.
- When the firmware is installed, you will get PASS! message in Odin and your phone will reboot automatically.
- You can now disconnect the USB cable. Since the first boot takes about 5-8 minutes, you need to wait patiently.
It might take up to 5-7 minutes for your Galaxy A9 Pro to boot up after the firmware installation, so you need to be patient. You will then be welcomed by the initial setup screen. Enjoy the newly installedย Android 7.0 Nougat on your Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro SM-A910F (2016).
