[android] Wiley Fox Swift Stuck in Cyanogen boot loop

[Dos_Box]

My daughters Wiley Fox Swift is currently misbehaving. It looks as if a recent Cyanogen update has gone awry and it is stuck in a boot loop.

It either hangs on the 'Cyanogen' boot screen, goes into the 'Optimising apps' process then reboots to the Cyanogen screen once more.

Booting into recovery mode (vol up + pwr) only gives me the fastboot screen with no recovery options (top tip, initialise the advanced recovery options in developer settings before it's too late!).

Just before I was about to post this I actually got into the 'proper' recover screen but have been unable to do so since .

Tried clearing the cache in that but didn't work, so any suggestions to access the real recovery screen will be gratefully received.

*Update*

Got into the recovery menu again and tried the factory reset option which apparently does nothing.

Looks like I'll have to wipe it and force a new install of Cyanogen on there.

Once more the joys of ADB await

Fixed!

Turns out that after selecting factory reset, it went through the app optimisation all over again and then booted into the setup screen
