To get Wifi access by use of common QR Code scanners, you have to QR encode the string WIFI:S:MySSID;T:WPA2;P:MyPassword;; which can be generated with the open source tool qrencode:

qrencode -t PNG -s 12 -l L -o MyNetwork.png 'WIFI:S:MySSID;T:WPA;P:MyPassword;;'

Apart from replacing MySSID and MyPassword by the right values for your network, you might need to replace WPA by WEP. I was told, a WPA2 might work as well, but WPA seems to be generic for both WPA and WPA2.

For a hidden network, a H:true is expecte as a last value, seperated by another ; and finished by a pair of them. In case of no password (no encryption), just omit the respective tags completely¹⁾.

Some time ago, I found an unofficial build of TWRP for the Wileyfox Swift (crackling): TWRP_3.0.2-0_crackling_20160524.zip

Steps done:

1. Extract recovery.img from TWRP_3.0.2-0_crackling_20160524.zip
2. Boot Wileyfox Swift into fastboot
3. Connect by USB
4. Run
   fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
   on connected computer
5. Reboot by command
   fastboot boot recovery.img
   on connected computer³⁾
6. Reboot or shutdown from TWRP Menu

This is a guide to transfer an Android system to a new hardware of the same type in case the old hardware is somewhat broken, but the system ist still running.
This will not work as described to transfer the system to different hardware.

    or
    Connect to computer by USB and run adb shell
14. Set current time by
    date -s YYYYMMDDHHMM00
15. Do a dummy backup of some small partition (e.g. boot) to get TWRP subdirectory name of new phone
16. Find new subdirectory either in /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUP or in /sdcard1/TWRP/BACKUP
17. Rename
    /sdcard1/TWRP/BACKUP/<old name>
    to
