The android 6.0 marshmallow update on this device is not that cool I know a lot of people will agree with me on that. But infinix XUI interface which is found on infinix hot note and note 2 is really cool with lots of features. No surprise why it was ported to this device and yea I really like it an I'm sure you will too. Here is the tutorial on how to install this ROM and have this cool interface and features on your infinix X510 (Hot 2).
Points to Note
* This is a custom ROM.* This works fine for both 1GB & 2GB version
* You might find some bugs even though I've not found one yet :)
* I discovered that if your device running on Android 6.0, after installing this ROM it will hang on infinix logo, So downgrade the phone first to Android 5.1 first before doing this.
* Again do this at your own risk!
