Read all the guidelines and instructions in this post if you want to complete the new update manually at your first attempt. If you cannot complete the installation you have to tell us in comments at the end of the tutorial. Here’s how to install the update:

1. Download Samsung USB Drivers from here.
2. The usb drivers should be installed on your computer, as otherwise you cannot connect the Galaxy S10+ with your computer.
3. Download the Odin 3.13.3 zip from here. This is the application that you will have to use in order to install the update on your phone via computer.
   After Odin is downloaded you have to extract the zip contents and save them on your computer.

6. Now you can power off the phone.
7. Open Odin exe on your PC.
8. Boot your phone in Download Mode.
9. Use the usb cable and connect your phone to PC and allow it to be detected by the Odin app. If the Galaxy S10+ is not detected you have to reinstall the USB drivers and retrace all the above steps.
10. In Odin you will now have to load all the firmware update files. These are the files you obtained at the extraction process at step 5.
    1. click AP and load the AP_G973FXXU3ASIG tar.md5 file.
    1. click BL and load the BL_G973FXXU3ASIG tar.md5 file.

12. Reboot the phone in normal mode when you’re done with the update.
