Alcatel IDOL 4 Pro gets Windows Device Recovery Tool support in latest update

The Windows Device Recovery Tool has been updated with support for the Alcatel IDOL 4 Pro, allowing users to recover their phone if anything goes wrong.

Microsoft has released an update for the Windows Device Recovery Tool that brings with it support for Alcatel's newly released IDOL 4 Pro, meaning those users can now recovery their devices if something ever goes wrong with it. This is great news, and it means Microsoft can now officially recommend the IDOL 4 Pro in the Windows 10 Mobile Insider Program.

The update for the Windows Device Recovery Tool is available now as version 3.12.24302, and includes a few additional tweaks and changes over the addition of IDOL 4 Pro support. Here's the full changelog:

• Support for Honeywell Dolphin 75e and CT50 of win 10 devices.
• Added new device for Alcatel IDOL 4 Pro WP.
• Updated the Ja-jp localization resources.
• Accessibility improvements.

Interestingly, although the Windows Device Recovery Tool now officially supports the IDOL 4 Pro, the app still doesn't recognize the device out of box. This means you have to select "my device wasn't recognized" and manually go and find the recovery image for your IDOL 4 Pro. This isn't a huge issue, but it's something to take note of.
