Finally, I've installed them with command:
Code:
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools/master/install.sh)
As you can see, I had failed unlocking the bootloader and I did not install TWRP. Also, without TWRP I had not done wipe.
After flashing this three images I got a brick. Phone showed Wileyfox logo once and turned off. After ejecting/inserting battery, it responsed (once) to Power button, but showed only logo and turned off again.
Eject/insert battery again and pressing Power + VolDown took me to some menu. From it I've reached fastboot menu.
With windows-laptop and WileyFox Tool utility I pressed Check bootloader status button. Phone restarted and I got Android N boot animation. Then restarted again and finally I'm in Android N First Setup Utility.
Working:
— screen, touchscreen, brightness ajustment (manual)
— mic, speaker
— charging
— GPS
— 4G
— Wi-Fi
— camera (video does not work)
— night mode
— multi-window mode
Not working:
— sensors
— some apps show library mismatch
Also, Power + VolDown button now does not take me to recovery menu. It shows android with red exclamation point. I think it's not right.
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
: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/1...ck-cyanogenos/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
Johannesburg
Linear Mode
