Fixing TWRP boot loop on Wileyfox Swift

Situation

LineageOS 14.1 installed, TWRP 3.0.0 installed, phone working properly. After an OTA update gone wrong, the phone did not boot into system but only into TWRP recovery.

1st Try

Based on https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/5riech/how_fix_twrp_recovery_boot_loop_after_lineageos/ the first try was to install a newer version of TWRP. This resulted in the phone unable to boot at all.

Resolution

  1. Boot into fastboot (VOL+ and Power)
  2. Flash TWRP 3.0.0
  3. fastboot erase recovery
    fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-0-crackling.img

TWRP 3.0.0 available again

2nd try

Flash most current version of LineageOS –> no change

3rd try

  1. Boot into fastboot
  2. Start normal system from bootloader
    fastboot continue
  3. Enable ADB and root for ADB
  4. Fix boot code
    adb shell
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc.0/7824900.sdhci/by-name/misc bs=32 count=1
