Thanks for the info and fast reply.

Will this work on Wileyfox Swift? i currently have TWRP 2.8.7.1 size 24.4mb but the link above is in 2.8.7.0 size 15.1mb

Works well on mine both for AROMA and cryogenmod nightly updates and to install c-apps for cm13 unoficial

Thanks for the reply and also on my other post.

Since this is for swift, i will try to install but sadly i have given it back already. It was just here for the upgrade and when i got the chance to get hold of it again i will definitely try and report back.

Many thanks.

Following the various instructions for both TWRP and CM recoveries provide the same frustrating result: I'm getting a black screen when I reboot into recovery.
Everything seemed to go ok on the flashing using ADB but then when replacing the battery and vol-down +power to reboot into recovery I'm greeted with nothing.
Subsequent reboots into recovery from the OS reinstate the Cyanogen recovery.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

The easy way
Install recovery in bootloader mode with fastboot flash recovery "the name of your recovery"
Hold volume down
issue this command fastboot reboot
when phone restarts you can release volume down the phone should now boot to your new recovery
Note TWP version 3.0.0 is out https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=48495

I think it was a windows 10 problem, I gave it all another try this morning firstly using the WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit to Unlock Bootloader and flash TWRP . I then rebooted into recovery and hey presto TWRP. Flashing CM13 nightly and pico gapps was then childsplay.

Any ideas why google play didnt offer to auto restore all my apps? Thats a bit of a pain.

Otherwise very pleased, phone seems a bit more responsive using CM13 than CyanogenOS. I tried to format my SD to use as internal storage too but i couldnt see them separately afterwards to free up device storage so I reverted back.

Thanks for trying to help.

Confirmed!!! It works... i used TWRP 3.0. Works on both aroma and pico. Thanks so much!!!!

Got stuck in a TWRP loop after installation. Regardless which reboot option I choose, always TWRP 3.0.0 comes up. No idea what I did wrong but for me it is of more interest how to get rid of it. Accessible external SD contains cm14-zip and also Stock 6.0.1. Installed CM14 multiple times, but has no impact on what comes up after selecting reboot/reboot recovery/reboot fastboot - it is always TWRP. Tried it also via adb sideload from within TWRP, no change of behaviour. Same when I tried to install stock rom.

Bootloader issue? How to get it back? I have 2 further Swifts available so I can dump several necessary partitions from them, but I need to know which tools are required, since I usually deal with MTK-based androids. Backup of userdata and sdcards is available, so if a reset to stock is necessary, this is not a problem from that point of view - if I only would have the info, how to get back a working bootloader.

Even though I love this recovery, it is obviously annoying ... Any help appreciated. Tnx in advance!

Edit: Fixed. I removed the battery for several hours and without battery with plugged in USB cable (not the WF one, I have tons of them lying arround here) I was able to reboot to normal fastboot. From then on it was strraightforward:
checked OEM lock status via fastboot command on PC
flashed newest TWRP
rebooted to TWRP
installed Stock ROM to get all partitions reinitialized correctly
rebooted to OS - YEAH, the swift lives again
Rebooted to recovery
Installed CM14 and OpenGApps Nano (ARM, not ARM64, since it produces an error)
Reboot to OS - YEAH, here we are.
