Great news for Infinix Note 2 X600 users; Infinix has pushed a Marshmallow OTA update (Android 6) for the Infinix Note 2 X600. This is quite some respite after the issue of a totally dead Infinix Note 2 X600 on flashing the wrong firmware which had just been resolved at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-11899.html. As usual, users who have upgraded to Marshmallow have requested for a root exploit. We’d dropped one for the Lollipop version at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-364.html and this tutorial will guide you through rooting an Infinix X600 running on Marshmallow.

How to root Infinix Note 2 X600 running on Marshmallow


  1. Install VCOM drivers on your PC using https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-440.html
  2. Download SuperSU 2.66.zip at https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B9srKhKuV...t=download
  3. Copy SuperSU.zip to both the phone’s SD card and internal storage
  4. Download CWM for Infinix Note 2 X600 Marshmallow ported by Team Hovatek at https://mega.nz/#!VbhhXJ6T!DBDQFkQBre_Kl...Tv9N3a2YhU
  5. Switch off the phone (still with battery inside)
  6. Flash the Clockworkmod recovery.img to the phone using SP Flash tool @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-159.html
  7. Boot the phone into recovery mode using Volume up button + Power button (see https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-479.html)
  8. In Clockworkmod recovery mode, you use the Volume up button to scroll up, Volume down button to scroll down and Power button to select
  9. Scroll down to Install zip and select it
  10. Select Choose zip from /storage/sdcard1
  11. Navigate to the location of SuperSu.zip and select it
  12. Select Yes – Install SuperSU to confirm flashing
  13. Wait till flashing is complete
  14. Return to the home screen (using the back option) then select Reboot
  15. If CWM offers to help fix a missing Root, select No
  16. Confirm Root by installing and running Root Checker @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...heck&hl=en

I downloaded the cmw file but it appears like the file is corrupted because the flashtool couldn’t load it fully. That’s what it kept telling me.
REPLY
Hovatek says:
March 8, 2016 at 10:23 pm
It’s not corrupted. What’s the exact error message you got?
REPLY
YM Rigasa says:
March 8, 2016 at 11:11 pm
Whenever I load the scatter file, none of the boxes is ticked, they are all empty with nothing by the ‘location’ column. So despite that I ticked the recovery box and plugged my phone. Then the message said the file was not yet loaded.
REPLY
Hovatek says:
March 8, 2016 at 11:29 pm
Of course you’ll get an error. Are the scatter file and recovery.img in the same folder?
REPLY
YM Rigasa says:
March 8, 2016 at 11:34 pm
Yes after extracting the zip both remain in the same folder.

YM Rigasa says:

I just renamed the recovery by removing the .img and it worked for me. So the cmw has now been successfully installed. But sadly the rooting failed as whenever I tried to install the su zip file it got aborted in the process.

Hovatek says:

Are you certain the phone booted into CWM recovery and not stock recovery?

Thank you very much for the help, I’m going to try it now and give you feedback. I’d like you to teach me how to port custom recovery like the way you just done this. Great job. Show how should I flash the new recovery ?
Hovatek says:
April 29, 2016 at 12:54 pm
Flash it using SP flash tool as the guide above instructs (use the scatter file from the other recovery).
Here’s CWM recovery for your build @ https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B_-waNKLv...t=download
use this instead of the TWRP I first gave you.
kevinessi says:
April 29, 2016 at 1:16 pm

When you enter recovery mode, flash SuperSU.zip then hold the power button till the phone goes off and boots up

Hi sir, Pls I need Infinix Note 2 lte version 6.0 Rome to flash, but it should not be the same as the Buil
Build number x600-H533-A1-M-20160224 because I found out that whenever you flash Trwp cooked especially for this build and try rooting, it always gets bootloop. Meanwhile some other people using the same build x600-H533-A1-M-..(different than the first one).. Theirs are working out within any difficulty . So I’m pleading with you to give the link for me to download the other different one so that I can flash this and be able to have root access.
