Introduction
The Infinix Note 50X 5G (Model: X6857B) is a stylish and powerful mid-range smartphone featuring 5G connectivity, a high-refresh-rate display, and a MediaTek Dimensity processor. It runs on Android 13 or 14 with XOS and is designed for smooth multitasking and entertainment.
Despite its performance, the Note 50X 5G can occasionally face software-related issues—such as being stuck on the boot screen, app crashes, forgotten passwords, or failed updates. In these situations, flashing the official Infinix stock firmware (also called a flash file or ROM) can help bring your phone back to life.
This article covers everything you need to know about the Infinix Note 50X 5G X6857B firmware, including when and how to flash it safely using SP Flash Tool.
What Is Stock Firmware?
Stock firmware is the official software package developed by Infinix for your phone. It includes the operating system (Android), Infinix’s user interface (XOS), and all system components that make the phone run properly.
Flashing the stock firmware replaces corrupted, bricked, or outdated software with a clean, factory-stable version.
