In a post I wrote back in November, I told you guys that there would be an Android 6.0 marshmallow update for Infinix hot 2. Although, I said the 6.0 update was expected to roll out in the early weeks of December, nothing happened.
Thankfully though, the android 6.0 update for infinix hot 2 and is being rolled out via OTA (Over-The-Air).
In today's post will include the simple steps required to upgrade your infinix hot 2 to 6.0 marshmallow.
The android 6.0 upgrade for infinix hot 2 comes with new features which includes better battery optimization, RAM manager, the ability to migrate data to your SD Card, better control of permissions granted to apps, probably a simplified security using your fingerprint and lots more.
For users have not rooted or flashed their infinix hot 2;
Go to "Settings"
Click on "About device"
Then select "System Update"
If it shows "System is up to date", that means the update has not YET gotten to device, however it would get to it in no time as the roll out has only just begun.
However, if you can not wait till the Android 6.0 update hits your device, do this to manually flash the 6.0 update to your device;
To Manually Upgrade Your Infinix Hot 2 To Android 6.0 Marshmallow, first you need to Download 6.0 here.
It is about 624.9mb in size.
Locate the file you downloaded and rename it to update.zip.
Move the update.zip to the root of your SD Card. Inside the card itself not inside any folder
Turn off your phone.
Hold the Volume Up and the Power Button together to boot your device into stock recovery mode.
Scroll down with Volume button to “Apply Update from SD Card”
Scroll down to the update.zip and select it with the Power Button.
Select “Install” and it’s done.
At this point, you just need to wait, the upgrade process will begin. Wait until the installation is complete so that your device would be rebooted. Your would start running the new Android 6.0 Marshmallow on your infinix hot 2.
That’s All.
If you have at any point rooted you infinix hot 2, using the above method could cause serious damage to your device.
