Infinix recently pushed an Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) OTA update to the Infinix Hot 2 X510. OTAs like this take time to go around and not everyone is willing to wait for God knows how long to receive the update so we posted the guide at https://www.hovatek.com/blog/how-to-upgrade-infinix-hot-2-x510-to-android-6-marshmallow/ to enable Infinix Hot 2 users easily upgrade their phones to Android 6.0. For those who are still having issues getting this done with that guide, we have provided an alternative; an SP Flash Tool flashable format of the OTA update.
Note: This is not an official firmware from Infinix. Team Hovatek dumped the firmware of our copy of the Infinix Hot 2 X510 which had been successfully upgraded to Marshmallow (Android 6.0) using the above guide.
Will I be able to flash future OTA updates after flashing this ROMDump?
Yes, you will. The ROMDump is not rooted and is also running on stock recovery. It passed the System Check test, see proof below:

Hovatek….just a button away!
I’ll try that…
D first time I Flashed with d lollipop ROM…. It performed an encryption for 17mins b4 completing booting…. Since it completed d booting… d touch no longer worked…. Does d encryption have to do with d touch not working?
I cant say from now. have you tried formatting then reflashing the lollipop firmware?
Sorry if I’ve troubled you a lot
Not a problem. Was running a search
OK…. Is there any custom ROM I can install on it? Custom lollipop ROM… Perhaps I can use that.. Since I can’t get any of d stock roms to work
Have you flashed a custom recovery to the phone?
Nope…. Haven’t… Am looking for one without bugs.. So I won’t increase d phone’s problems
I actually misread that… Sorry… I mean am looking for a custom ROM without bugs b4 flashing d custom recovery on it
Ok. You should be able to find a cwm recovery for it. Just google it
