Ok so I am new to the Wileyfox Swift
Have rooted it with no issues...

Few questions if anyone can shed some light
1. What Bloatware can I remove via Root Explorer or other or is it the same with any Android phone
2. Possible to change Icons (as I have themed a few JB Roms in the past but never with Cyanogen)
3 Stop recieving new system updates, how do I stop this if I just want to leave it as is

Any other info that may be handy

Thanks

1. There isn't much bloatware, tbh, unless you count the "value added" stuff like True Caller and the Email/Calendar apps
2. There's a Themes option in settings that can download theme packs - that's built in
3. Just disable the System Updates app

Exactly. I can also confirm these statements to be true on my Wileyfox Swift backup phone. CyanogenOS out of the box is definitely a big selling point of this phone from Wileyfox, plus the fact that it has Gorilla Glass 3 instead of Dragontrail used in their latest Spark product line. The use of the Qualcomm SOC is also a very nice addition compared to MediaTek on the Spark devices. Factory fitted screen protector also FTW!
