If you want lollipop and you are rooted and on kitkat, get the 730 lollipop update and flash with sp flash tools making sure you click "firmware upgrade". After this you can do OTA update to 813 official lollipop. Nothing will go wrong. Plus the upgrade from a rooted kitkat will totally erase all the system and after ward you are back on stock recovery with lollipop. like I said, I did it. And the official 813 OTA UPDATE is stable and not filled with bugs.

You are advised not to upgrade, if your phone has been rooted before. Unrooting won't make any difference. A permanent change has been made once it's rooted.

The only logical means of getting a lollipop is wait till it's ported as a standalone ROM and then you flash it using cwm. That's my plan also since I'm also rooted.

You guys are wrong.. All rooted device can upgrade to lollipop, just don't do an over the air update OTA.

What you need is a laptop and Sp flash.

Link to the rom and sp flash is already pasted in infinix forum.

Check infinix forum, the roms are posted with their respective links, download the particular rom form your device, extract into a folder and launch the sp flash.


http://bbs.infinixmobility.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=839&extra=page%3D1

use of sp flash to upgrade your firmware.. That's what i did, now am on lollipop, my phone was actually rooted before and i downloaded the rom for hot note pro, upgraded using sp flash with my laptop and am back brand new, mind you immediately after the upgrade an update will prompt, kindly update it. Now that am on lollipop have since then refused to root again.

Mind you, download the right rom oooooo... Instructions to flash is also in d same link.

Which one did you download? 730 beta or 814 official? Either way you have to use sp flash tools. Check online to see how to use and download the sp flash tools.

Hello guys, do you think it's appropriate for me to download the latest update ie the xui and flash it via sp flash tools or I should download the 0730 own and update via ota??
I believe I'll save myself some data if I flash the xui straight up.

If the link to 814 is breaking and giving problems, why don't you download 730 beta and from their do the OTA update. The OTA UPDATE is only 151mb. So u will still use less than 1 gig
