Does it have OTA?

I am having an issue flashing. I flash using TWRP and when I reboot it says "No OS Installed". Also when I tried via fastboot. Is there any thing I am missing?

No root and OTA.
Before flashing via fastboot wipe data through twrp.

Well, I just installed on my trusty Wileyfox Swift.

Overall I'm impressed, however the sensors are not working- gyro/ accelerometer/ proximity. There is some conflict with libraries when starting a game.
With a few more updates (fingers crossed) I can see myself using it as a daily driver

Everything else works and works really well. The phone seems a lot faster, the SDcard was formatted (haven't tested using an app from it but games are out of the question anyway), dual-window will be neat and is fine at the moment.
There is a lot to like here with few issues.

PS: After reading a bit from the older threads on XDA and from 4pda.ru , it seems the sensor issue is connected to the bridge to enable Android One roms with FindYanot's oem image on our crackling. Really impressive thus far. I wonder if we can flash General Mobile 4G firmware with QFIL?

I've tried this firmware on my phone and I'd like to share both experience and expressions.

Main laptop is MacBook Air, so it was quite hard to find working fastboot, adb ot GUI utilities.
Finally, I've installed them with command:

Code:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools/master/install.sh)

Then I tried to unlock the bootloader and flash images:

As you can see, I had failed unlocking the bootloader and I did not install TWRP. Also, without TWRP I had not done wipe.

I've had the opposite experience. Fastboot works without fail on Mac and Linux. Windows- not so much with the Swift.

Flash TWRP manually - fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img (replace with the file name for TWRP)
You've just installed the patched oem.img (to allow code name "seed" images) along with boot and system. Can't boot to recovery if you don't have one

Steer away from flashing other files from the Android One stock image (it will be even messier hardbrick and you would have to follow the instructions from the other thread).
If you want to return to stock COS, follow the instructions from these awesome people

PS: For some reason, unlocking the bootloader for me worked with: fastboot oem unlock-go
but not with:
fastboot -i 0x2970 oem unlock-go
Locking with: fastboot oem lock-go , worked as expected
