We are going to show you how to use “Odin” with your samsung a20.

  you should check to see if the update has already been rolled out to your device over the air. OTA update is easy without risk and installation. You will usually receive an alert when an update is available over the air. If not, then here's how to check for update on your samsung a20.

Usually the firmware is compressed into a ZIP file. It is very important that you obtain the correct firmware for your device. Using the wrong firmware can completely disable your device. Don't do this step easily.
