How about we tecno android loves, I need the update in my tecno m6
Tecno lollipop update? I doubt if tecno will ever release that except if dir CEO resign. However, custom lollipop shod be available for ur device
not related
yomi is there any rom for tecno phantom A+ also known as xolo q1000 in some countries
First to comment!
Prof do u know how i can get the one plus one smartphone in Nigeria
It should be available on Kulimart.com
Have checked…it is not there
Order it from gearbest and it will be deliver to your location
I am a regular reader (but not a commentator) on your blog Yomi, but I couldn't help myself. Infinix has decided to kill both Innjoo and techno with this move. If they stay steady rolling out updates, they will corner the Nigerian "Geekmarket". How are you doing bruv? More grease to your elbows
Thank God you comment today, I have I carton of five alive for you. I guess in moo and tecno are still sleeping….
@Sharrpguy, I doubt that techno will allow infinix just come from no where to upstart it. Besides how many Nigerians are even bothered by OTAs and lollipop? All they want is a phone to use.
I'm a proud Infinix user o!
But I doubt Infinix is killing Tecno..
Haven't you heard of the new Camon C8 with preloaded Lollipop and a monstrous Camera..
Check out some pictures Here
Can one use an external download manager for mega cos the inbuilt manager in the mega app doesn't support resuming downloads….almost downloaded the stuff then a call came in and it started afresh

I still don't understand you… If you flashed this latest lollipop rom for infinix hot note, you shouldn't even see or flashed an OTA update again… My question is, what Android version are you running now? or what is the state of your device.

Power off your phone and then press power button + volume up button to see if it will boot into recovery… if it does, you'll know if it install or not cos you'll see advance features

Hello friend, sorry about what just happened to your device. It's either your obstruct the process of during the upgrade or your USB got disconnected during the upgrade. This what normally happened if the upgrade process isn't complete or obstructed.
You need to take it to CarlCare centre closest to you and it will be fix.
after following your rules using flash tools, i reboot my phone, oly for me to see PMT changed for the ROM, it must be downloaded.
pls help me out here bro
Downloading from infinixmobility and the one under flash tool option; are they of the same version?
Because I downloaded the first one from infinixmobility and it's the one I used for the flash tool, so I'm not getting message that the PMT has been changed for the ROM
Is there any possible way?
And also I installed miui v6 some months back before I later go back to stock ROM and since then the boot image which is MI.com has refused to disappear pls is Der any way I can bypass that???
