Was stupid and bricked my phone. Can access Fastboot (+adb) but no Recovery...

Hey guys, to keep it short:

- Wileyfox Swift, Cyanogenmod 13, Android 6.0.1
- Played around with Titanium Backup Pro and probably broke the OS somehow.
- When I start the phone, after the Wileyfox Swift-Logo, I only get occasional flashes and that's it.
- I can access Fastboot and can give it commands from my PC via adb
- I cannot access Recovery (white flashes again). Starting a recovery-img via adb didn't work either.

Is there still hope?

Thanks for any help.

Recovery ended up working again after I did this, and I was able to reset my phone.

Thank you!!

Reboot to EDL

none of these options help me unfortunately and still put me in boot loop with the Wileyfox Swift Powered by Android screen repeatedly flashing / looping

I suspect its due to the 4 files I am missing

I found the first batch in the CyanogenMod zip, but the above 4 are not present. Are these in the recovery bin or do I need to get a backup from another wileyfox swift?
