Wileyfox Swift gets Android 8.0 Oreo based LineageOS 15 ROM

Wileyfox launched its first smartphone some time ago which was named as the Wileyfox Swift. This smartphone was launched in partnership with CyanogenOS which was the company behind CyanogenMod. This was the most popular custom ROM back last year until the end of the year as the custom ROM was shut down due to money crisis in the company. Talking about the Wileyfox Swift, the smartphone has nothing major in it other than the fact that this was among the extremely limited smartphones that came with CyanogenMod pre-installed also known as CM and the version while it launched was CM12.1.

Later, as we mentioned earlier, the debacle of CyanogenMod happened and the Wileyfox Swift and other smartphones that came with CM inbuilt were left with no official support from any company at all. Thus, we would now like to report that the latest version of Android which was recently launched by Google has now been made available for the Wileyfox Swift. This version has been named as Android 8.0 Oreo and the custom ROM that is available is LineageOS 15. One thing to note here is the LineageOS 15 build available for the smartphone is not an official one so it will not be supported by the LineageOS team.

However, if you have been using the Wileyfox Swift then you must be knowing a thing or two about rooting the smartphones and installing custom ROMs as that is the only way this smartphone would be updated to the latest version of Android. Thus, we have mentioned the links to the files that are needed in order to install the LineageOS 15 ROM on your smartphone. Also, you should follow this guide to learn How to install LineageOS 15 on your Wileyfox Swift.
