How to Downgrade Infinix Hot 2 X510 to Android Lollipop 5.1 or Android One 5.0
A lot of people are complaining about problems they're facing when trying to root their Infinix hot 2 running OS 6.0 mashal! The truth is, for now there's no medium for rooting 6.0 Marshall so you you gotta downgrade to 5.0 Lollipop first to get your fone rooted.
I’m going to make this a little bit easier for those who have successfully upgraded their Infinix hot 2 X510 to Android 6.0 but want to downgrade it back to Android 5.0 or Lollipop 5.1 due to some of the bug on the Android 6.0. If you can no longer wait for infinix to release bug fixes for this latest Android 6.0, then you can go ahead and downgrade it back to Android 5.1 or 5.0 stock OS.
Before you begin, please back up your files and document to avoid stories that touch.
