Just to explain further...

The Infinix Hot 2 X510 is an Android One phone, a project supported by Google as means of putting smartphones in the hands of as many at cheaper rate, hence the partnership between InfinixMobility and Google.

Initially, updates were to be pushed by Google directly, but an adjustment was made to the terms, which now means that Google will push updates to Infinix, and in turn Infinix will push it to its Android One phones as at when due. All this will take a period of two years.

However, Infinix released another ROM for this phone which is their custom ROM i.e. Infinix ROM 5.1. This particular ROM has no promise of updates and as I speak to you as not been upgraded to Marshmallow as with every other phone Infinix made.

In this case, Hot 3 falls into this category and while it running Android Marshmallow out of the box, it will most likely not have Android 7 Nougat except InfinixMobility decide otherwise.

An example of this is the Nexus series, made by different manufacturers but owned by Google. However, they are quite different from Android One.

In summary, if you are running the Android One ROM on Infinix Hot 2 X510, don't bother rooting your device, as more updates will be pushed to it including Android N. You can root only if you are an advance user and you wish to tinker with your phone and flash different ROMs otherwise if your a layman...stay your hand, sit back and enjoy your phone.

I hope this help all who are confused about the whole thing. You can also make your research on Android One and/or Nexus projects.

Cheers.

Thanks for the advice man! I'll stay put; but I sure wish they will release a super update that will fix all the bugs that came with the Marshmallow update like PC not recognizing phone via USB and Phone Memory and SD Card merged into one.

There's no bug like that, only thing reported on the phone after Marshmallow update is battery calibration problem, and not by all.

1. Phone and Memory are never merged into one. Marshmallow introduced what is called Adoptable Storage, which allows a user set up his sd card as internal storage. It is a mistake many of you made when upgrading to Marshmallow. Many swap the memory card to serve as internal storage probably because they have no idea what they're doing.

Solution: remove the sd card and format it, also a factory reset will be done on your phone else you will have app crashes here and there.

2. Phone not recognised by the PC as I said before is not a bug. There a maybe variety of reasons why it is so. It maybe that because you have adopted your sd card as internal storage hence the problem (I'm not sure). Or see these questions:
Have you downloaded the right USB drivers for your system?
Are you using a good USB cable?
Hope your USB port in your system is working fine?
If you answer these questions, you probably will find a fix.

Toluene15:

1. Hot 2 phone memory is 16GB not 8GB
2. control panel looks like KitKat not lollipop
3. network signal bars are different from that of androidone
4. nothing like wireless update only system updates.

bro what's the name of ur launcher?

SkinnyDude:

I am not entirely sure what the problem is with your phones. However, there are several reasons why you may be having "Parsing Error". They are and not limited to:

1. Downloaded app is not compatible with the hardware or OS version of your phone.
2. Corrupted or partially downloaded . apk file.
3. "Allowing installation from unknown sources" is not activated on your phone.

Question is what OSes are running on the phones presently? Where do you download your apps? PlayStore or Other Sources?

Let me know your answer.

As for the font changer, I'm sure there's provision for reverting to default settings. Do this, and disable the app.

The others, I don't quite understand the problems.

Another update on 6.0 is out. I hope it fixes all remaining bugs o

Your phone has virus or one or more of the apps you currently have downloaded on your phone generates ads. Sometimes, some antivirus app might be the brewer of these ads.

First, I'll advice you to do a factory reset on your phone. If it is an app that's causing the ad, it should be clean once you do this. After factory reset, do not install any app. Turn on your data and observe your phone for a few hours, if there's not ad...then you know it is one of the app you are currently using that's generating the ads. So, download only from PlayStore, and other trusted app store. Take note of the apps you have downloaded and watch if you have a repeat.

If you have ads immediately after powering your data just after a factory reset, then it is a virus. At this point, you need to do a clean wipe/format of your phone. That's you wipe all of cache, davilk cache, system, internal storage, and data. You will also need to format your SD Card as residues of the virus can be hidden there.

On flashing the ROM, ensure you download the right and official Android One ROM.

One of these will surely eliminate them (the ads).

Let me know, the results.

Both the hot1 and hote note when i send apps from ppl phone using xender and try to install it it says "error parsing" it not like i collect the apk
I even went as far as downloading from play store itself same "error parsing"
The hot note is originally on kitkat but the person i got it from upgraded it to lolipop,i think d lolipop he upgraded it from was built by a normal nigerian or an average american,i am very sure it is not infinix lolipop

D lolipop stuff is nice and sleek but i think dat is d reason for the "parsing error" maybe wen i downgrade it back to it original kitkat it will stop saying dat

And d hot1 aswell is on it normal kitkat maybe if i also relaod it rom afresh it would stop saying "parsing error"

So how can i reload an infinix phones original rom
Using all dis sptools, backup rom and d rest as u all say it on this thread

Have you enabled "allow installation from unknown sources" on your phone?

When did the problem started? Or has it been so since you got the phone?

I cannot help you with flashing process because it can be complicated for you and I can't explain every process on this platform.

You can as well visit Infinix official site, or use Google or YouTube.

I'll advice you to take your phone to Carlcare centre or Slot, so they can fix your phone. Tampering with your phone without adequate knowledge can be detrimental.

Bros, ever since I upgraded to marshmallow my battery has been acting really weird. Sometimes it will be discharging instead, other times it will charge up to 88 percent and then stops there for a long time before charging quickly to 100 percent but then discharges quickly also. Pls, is there any solution?

No solution and trust me, I have tried everything. There is nothing I haven't done to fix that problem, it just can't be fixed. Let's hope one of the future updates will fix it.

Almost everyone has this bug since the upgrade to Android M, including me (and I hate it). It has something to do with the battery stats and calibration. I hope Infinix and Google can help fix the bug in future updates.

You may download a high rated app on battery calibration from the PlayStore and follow the instructions.
