Since Infinix released the XOS update for the Infinix Note 2 and Zero 3. Lots of users who actually upgraded their phone to the latest OS have been complaining about them not being able to root the phone with different root apps like the KingRoot.

This is pretty obvious since the new XOS update is based on Android version 6.0 marshmallow. And since its still a pretty new OS version, most root apps such as KingRoot don't have the exploit to successfully root this phone so you might need to do it manually by flashing SuperSU.zip through a custom recovery.

All thanks to M7mad.Mad7at of Infinix mobility for actually porting a Twrp Recovery for the Infinix Note 2 running on XOS. So I will just show you guys a walk through on how to flash the Twrp Recovery onto your phone and also how to flash the SuperSU.zip
