Many thanks

You don't need a custom recovery that is the whole point of it being a signed zip

As far as I know the swift won't be bricked by this. But if you are worried I would use the fastboot zip and use a script to make sure everything is wiped first.

Hi,
When I am trying to
fastboot flash recovery filename
do I need to unzip the folder first?
or do I :
fastboot -i 0x2970 flash filename.zip
?

if you can find the 12.1 fastboot zip you can revert back to factory reset stock by fastboot flashing:
Code: 
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash hyp hyp.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
 and
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img 
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash system system.img
PM me if you cannot find cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2FI-crackling-signed-fastboot-07863145a7.zip

Hi, could you please confirm if this worked? I'm on a completely stock Swift with OTA to Cyanogen OS13. I'm finding the battery life disappointing so want to try downgrading to 12.1
