The long awaited Android 6.0 Marshmallow firmware update for the first Android One device launched in Nigeria (Infinix hot 2) has finally arrived as promised by Google. The update can be done over the air (OTA), so if you own an Infinix hot 2, you should receive a notification regarding the update soon. But if you are a power user (Rooted Users) and can't wait for the update prompt, you can go ahead and follow the tutorial below to update yours manually. Like i said earlier, only power users who knows what they are doing should attempt this. Tech n stuff will not be held responsible for any damage done to your device, this tutorial has been tested and confirmed working.

Now press the 'volume up' or 'volume down' (device dependent) button to go into the stock recovery menu
In the recovery menu, use the 'volume' buttons to navigate and click on 'update from SD card' with the 'power' button.
While in the SD card menu Scroll down to the 'update.zip' file you renamed earlier, (it should be at the bottom of the folder) and select it with the 'power' button.
