Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Firmware (Flash File) Drivers, Tools & Guide
The Infinix Hot 50 X6720 firmware is the solution for software issues. I have seen this phone come in frequently with FRP locks, bootloops, or stuck logos. This guide consolidates the firmware, tools, and steps I use personally.
One thing I always recommend before you start: extract the firmware to a simple folder path, something like C:FirmwareX6720. SP Flash Tool can sometimes have trouble locating the scatter file if the folder path contains spaces or special characters. It is a small thing, but it saves a frustrating few minutes of wondering why the tool is not loading the file.
There are 2 firmware files available for the Infinix Hot 50 X6720 on this page. Pick the one that matches your current Android version for the smoothest flash. The stock firmware ships with Android 14, XOS 14.5, which determines the default apps, security features, and interface you will see after flashing. The Infinix Hot 50 X6720 firmware uses a MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T) chipset (MediaTek), which means you will use SP Flash Tool and VCOM/MTK drivers for flashing. These are included in the prerequisites below.
The Infinix Hot 50 X6720 was released in 2024. This page is maintained with the latest available firmware builds as they become available. This firmware was sourced directly from verified repositories and checked for integrity before being listed on this page.
Your Infinix Hot 50 X6720 firmware comes as a compressed ZIP file. Download and extract it using WinRAR or 7-Zip. Once extracted, open the folder and confirm it contains the scatter file before proceeding.
Be aware that flashing overwrites the entire software partition. Your data, apps, and accounts will all be removed. This full wipe is how the flash resolves deep software issues, anything from FRP locks and boot failures to Wi-Fi problems and app crashes.
Hard Reset Infinix Hot 50 X6720
To perform a hard reset on the Infinix Hot 50 X6720 without a computer, power off the device completely, then hold Volume Up and Power at the same time until the recovery menu appears. Use the volume keys to navigate to “Wipe Data/Factory Reset” and confirm with the Power button.
A hard reset erases all data and restores Infinix Hot 50 X6720 to its original factory state. This fixes most software problems, slow performance, app crashes, forgotten screen locks, and bootloops. If the issue persists after a factory reset, a full firmware flash using SP Flash Tool is covered in the following sections.
FRP Removal for Infinix Hot 50 X6720
The fastest way to bypass FRP on Infinix Hot 50 X6720 is to use a free Android apps launcher that lets you access settings during the setup wizard. After flashing or performing a factory reset you may see a Google account lock (FRP). Our free Android apps launcher is the fastest way to get past it. This is also why I always recommend removing your Google account before flashing, it avoids this problem entirely.
When Should You Flash Infinix Hot 50 X6720?
You should flash the stock firmware when you encounter deep software issues that a simple reset cannot fix.
- Update to the latest Android version supported by your phone.
- Clear a forgotten screen lock, PIN, or pattern without needing the original credentials.
- Recover your device when it only boots into recovery mode.
- Repair a phone that shuts down randomly or restarts in a loop.
- Remove persistent malware or adware that survives a factory reset.
- Restore system apps that were accidentally removed or corrupted.
- Recover from “Download DA FAIL” errors and Secure Boot authentication issues specific to the MediaTek chipset in your device.

Which Firmware Version Does Your Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Need?
To ensure you download the correct file, you must verify your device identity before proceeding.
- Open About Phone: Your device model must read “X6720” exactly. Even small differences in the code can mean a completely different chipset and partition layout.
- Verify the Chipset Type: This firmware targets MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T) specifically. Flashing it on a different chipset will fail or could brick the device.
- Check Your Current Firmware Version: Compare your build number with the versions listed in the download section to decide which file to use.
- Use Recovery Mode: If you cannot access Settings (phone is stuck or locked), boot into recovery mode to read the build and chipset details from the screen.
- Regional Compatibility: Some Infinix firmware packages target specific regions. Confirm the download matches your device origin.
Firmware Details for Infinix Hot 50 X6720
Here is a quick overview of the official firmware specifications:
| Firmware Information | Details |
|---|---|
| Device Model | Infinix Hot 50 X6720 |
| Firmware Version | V1228, V1356 |
| File Size | 4.6 GB to 5.9 GB |
| Android Version | Android 14, XOS 14.5 |
| Platform | MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T) |
| Release Date | Released 2024, October |

| File Type | ZIP (Includes Scatter File [MT6xxx_Android_scatter.txt], preloader.bin, boot.img, system.img, recovery.img, lk.bin, logo.bin, nvram.img, and more) |
Which Firmware Version Should I Download?
Selecting the right version can be tricky, so I have outlined the common scenarios below.
| Your Situation | What I Recommend |
|---|---|
| Phone is completely dead or stuck on logo | V1356, download this one. It is the latest Infinix Hot 50 X6720 firmware available. |
| FRP / Google account lock only | See the FRP bypass guide above, you likely do not need the full firmware for this. |
| Phone slow after a recent OTA update | Try V1228, sometimes the latest OTA introduces new bugs and an older build runs better. |
| IMEI missing after a previous flash | Re-flash V1356 first, then follow the IMEI repair guide. Do not skip the reflash. |
| V1356 failed with a flash error | Try V1228 instead and double-check your scatter file selection before assuming the firmware is the problem. |
| Restoring to factory / warranty repair | V1356, clean state, fresh start. |
My general approach with MTK devices: always try the latest version first. I have seen people spend a lot of time trying older builds when the newest one would have worked fine. Only move to an older version if the latest fails more than once, and make sure it is a driver issue you are solving, not a firmware issue.
Download Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Firmware
Download the official stock firmware for your Infinix Hot 50 X6720 below. The latest available version is V1356. After downloading, verify the file size matches the table above, a size mismatch usually means a partial or corrupt download, and flashing a corrupt file can cause more problems than it solves.
| Software Details | Download Link | Members Link |
|---|---|---|
|
File Name: Infinix_Hot_50_5G_X6720_MT6835_IN_V1228_240819_MXML.zip Size: 5.9 GB | Download Link | Download Link2 |
| File Name: X6720-H353ABCDRS-U-BASE-240812V1356SMT.zip Size: 4.6 GB | Download Link | Download Link2 |
Only download firmware that is fully compatible with your exact device model. See the firmware selection guide above if you are not sure.
Important: The Infinix Hot 50 X6720 (X6720) should not be confused with other Hot 50 variants that may have different chipsets or regional firmware. Even devices in the same Hot 50 line can use completely different processors. Always verify your exact model code “X6720” in Settings > About Phone before downloading any firmware from this page.
- Your model number is a variant of X6720 with a different letter suffix. Check About Phone carefully, one letter difference can cause a failed or broken flash.
- Your chipset differs from MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T). Confirm in recovery mode before proceeding.
- You downloaded the file from a source other than this page.
- The file size differs significantly from the sizes listed in the table above, a size mismatch usually means a partial download, which will fail mid-flash.
Prepare Your Infinix Hot 50 X6720 for Flashing
Do not skip this section. Most failed Infinix flashes come from rushing through the preparation steps. The VCOM driver installation is essential for the Infinix Hot 50 X6720 and other MediaTek devices. Windows may show the device in Device Manager and SP Flash Tool will still not detect it if the correct VCOM driver is not installed.
- Back Up IMEI Numbers: Dial *#06# and write down both IMEI numbers now. You will need these if you need to restore your IMEI after flashing.
- Remove Google Accounts: Sign out of all Google accounts to prevent FRP lock after flashing.
- Back Up Your Data: Back up everything, photos, contacts, WhatsApp chats, important files. Flashing wipes the device completely.
- Charge Your Device: At least 50% battery. A device that powers off during a flash is very difficult to recover.
- USB Cable & PC: Use a proper data USB cable, not a charge-only cable, and a Windows computer with available USB ports.
- Install Required Drivers:
Step-by-Step: Flash Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Stock ROM
We are using SP Flash Tool for this. For older devices, I recommend trying SP Flash Tool v5.1924 first. The newer versions of SP Flash Tool require a DA (Download Agent) file that older firmware packages do not include, and that is what causes the “Auth” errors you may have seen. If SP Flash Tool keeps asking for an auth file and you do not have one, switch to MTK Client, it handles Secure Boot automatically. Download SP Flash Tool for Windows or SP Flash Tool for Linux and follow the steps below. The complete SP Flash Tool guide is also available if you need more detail.
- Download and Extract:
- Download the correct firmware package from the links above.
- Extract the ZIP to a simple folder path, avoid paths with spaces or special characters, as some flash tools have trouble with them.
- Install the Listed Drivers:
- Confirm all drivers listed above are installed and that your PC has been restarted since installation. Skipping the restart is a common reason drivers do not work correctly.
- Load the Firmware File:
- Click on the “Scatter-loading” button. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the firmware and select the “scatter.txt” file.
- Connect Your Device:
- Power off your phone completely, not sleep mode, fully off.
- Connect to your PC via USB cable. The flash tool will detect it automatically.
- Start Flashing:
- Click the “Download” button to begin.
- Do not disconnect, move the cable, or touch the device until the process is fully complete. Disconnecting mid-flash is how devices get bricked.
- Wait and Reboot:
- Once flashing finishes successfully, disconnect the device.
- Power on your device. The first boot will take longer than usual, give it up to 8 minutes.
What Is Normal After a Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Flash?
Here is what is completely normal after a successful flash:
- How to know the flash was successful: SP Flash Tool will show a green circle or checkmark when done. If you see that, the flash completed successfully.
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile data should all work right after setup. If mobile data is not connecting, go to Settings, SIM and Network, and re-enter your APN manually, the flash sometimes clears carrier APN settings.
- Dial *#06# immediately after setup to check your IMEI. Do this before you insert a SIM card. If it shows “unknown” or “null”, follow the IMEI repair guide below before doing anything else.
- First boot takes 3 to 8 minutes, do not force-reboot the device. The operating system is setting itself up from scratch. Interrupting this is how devices end up in bootloops.
- Battery percentage may seem inaccurate for the first day. The battery statistics are calibrated during normal use. Charge the phone fully once without interruption and the readings will stabilize.
- Notification sounds and ringtones will be back to factory defaults. Any custom tones you had set before will need to be re-downloaded and re-assigned in Settings.
- The phone will feel warm during first boot, this is normal. It settles after a few minutes once the initial app setup is complete.
Troubleshooting Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Flash Errors
- Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Not Recognized by SP Flash Tool:
- In most cases this is a driver issue, not a cable issue. Reinstall the VCOM drivers for the X6720, restart your PC, and try again before changing anything else.
- If that does not work, switch to a USB 2.0 port, USB 3.0 ports can cause detection issues with MediaTek devices more often than people expect.
- Still not working? Temporarily disable your antivirus. It can block the VCOM driver from loading without giving you any error message.
- Boot Loop After Flashing:
- Enter recovery mode and perform a factory reset from there. Most post-flash bootloops on MediaTek are caused by conflicts with old cached data, a wipe from recovery usually fixes this without needing to reflash.
- Wrong Scatter File / Firmware Mismatch:
- If SP Flash Tool throws an error as soon as you try to start the download, check your scatter file first. A mismatch between the scatter file and your device build is one of the most common causes of flash errors.
- “Download DA FAIL” Error:
- This error comes up regularly. It almost always means the VCOM driver is not properly installed. Reinstall it, restart your PC, and try again. If that still does not work, try switching to SP Flash Tool v5.1924, older devices sometimes respond better to the older version.
- Error 8038 (BROM Error):
- The device is not entering BROM mode correctly. Power it off completely and, if possible, remove the battery for 30 seconds. Reconnect and try again. Some MediaTek devices require you to hold Volume Down while plugging in the USB cable to enter BROM mode.
- Auth File / Secure Boot Error in Newer SP Flash Tool:
- Newer versions of SP Flash Tool require a DA (Download Agent) authentication file for devices with Secure Boot enabled. If you do not have that file, switch to MTK Client instead, it handles Secure Boot automatically and is the simpler solution.
Missing IMEI or Corrupt Baseband on Infinix Hot 50 X6720 After Flashing?
A missing or unknown IMEI is one of the most common things I see after a MediaTek flash. It happens because the NVRAM partition, which stores your IMEI and calibration data, sometimes does not survive the flash intact. It looks alarming, but it is fixable. Here is what to do:
- Check your drivers first: Install the Mediatek CDC Driver if you have not already, without it, the IMEI repair tools will not detect your device. This is the step most people miss.
- Use SN Write Tool or Maui Meta: SN Write Tool is the first option I try, it is straightforward and works on most MTK devices. Maui Meta is the alternative if SN Write does not connect. You can learn more about using SN Write Tool here.
- Run the repair:
- Connect your device to the computer.
- Enter the original IMEI numbers for both SIM slots, these are the numbers you wrote down before flashing.
- Click “Start” and let it complete without interrupting the connection.
- Verify after reboot: Once done, reboot your phone and dial *#06#. Your IMEI numbers should be back. If they are still showing null, run the process again, sometimes the first attempt does not complete correctly.

Questions About Infinix Hot 50 X6720 Firmware
Q1: Will flashing void my warranty?
A: Flashing official stock firmware generally does not void your warranty since you are restoring the device to its factory-intended state. However, some manufacturers may flag that the bootloader was unlocked or that the flash counter increased. Check your specific warranty terms with Infinix support if you are concerned.
Q2: How long does the flashing process take?
A: The actual flash usually takes between 3 and 10 minutes depending on the firmware size and USB connection speed. The first boot after flashing takes another 3 to 8 minutes. Do not interrupt the device during either stage. If the progress bar in SP Flash Tool appears stuck, give it a few more minutes before assuming something went wrong.
Q3: What should I do if I encounter an FRP lock after flashing?
A: Use our free Android apps launcher. FRP lock activates when a Google account was still signed in before flashing. This is why signing out of your Google account before flashing avoids this issue entirely.
Q4: Is this firmware compatible with other Infinix models?
A: No. This firmware is built specifically for the Infinix Hot 50 X6720 running on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T) chipset. Even variants of the Hot 50 with a different letter suffix can have a completely different chipset inside. Flashing the wrong firmware can leave your phone in a state that is very difficult to recover from. Always check your exact model number in Settings.
Q5: Do I need an internet connection during flashing?
A: No. The flashing process is entirely offline, it happens between your PC and the phone via the USB cable. You do not need internet at any point during the flash itself. You will need internet later to set up the phone and download your apps.
Q6: What if the flash fails halfway through?
A: Do not panic and do not disconnect the phone. Close SP Flash Tool, restart it, and try the flash again from the beginning. In most cases, a failed flash just means the process needs to be repeated. The device is usually still detectable by the flash tool even after a failed attempt.
Q7: Can I flash this firmware if my phone does not turn on at all?
A: Yes, in most cases. As long as the phone responds to a USB connection (even with a black screen), the flash tool can detect it. If the battery is completely drained, charge it for at least 15 minutes first.
Q8: My device is not detected by SP Flash Tool. What should I do?
A: Start with the drivers, reinstall the VCOM drivers, restart your PC, then try again. Switch to a USB 2.0 port if you are on USB 3.0. Disable your antivirus temporarily. If none of that works, leave a comment with the exact error message.
