The GPD XP Plus runs Android, but GPD does not operate a reliable one-tap over-the-air (OTA) updater for it the way phones do. The practical update path is to check GPD's official XP Plus firmware page (linked from gpd.hk), download the firmware package, and flash it from a Windows PC using GPD's published procedure. Documentation for this device is thin, so confirm the exact steps against the current GPD page and contact GPD support if you are unsure. Always keep the unit charged and never interrupt a flash.

FAQ

Is there an over-the-air update button?
GPD does not publish a confirmed working OTA server for the XP Plus. An Android 'System update' menu may appear, but the documented method is downloading firmware from gpd.hk and flashing from a PC.
Where do I get official firmware?
Use GPD's official site, gpd.hk, and look for the GPD XP Plus firmware page. Only use GPD-published images, and verify the current instructions there before flashing.
