Hello. Today i wanted to update my Oppo R5s R8106 from ColorOS to Mokee.

First i had to install Project Spectrum V1.1i Beta, and here it was fine.

Next step, i followed this guide to install CM (as someone on Oppo forum told me that the procedure for Mokee is the same).

Here i had problems, because TWRP for oppo r5 were not working (volume down + power button weren't getting me in recovery menu). I tried all the version for this phone from website but nothing.

So I tried to flash the CM recovery image from the nightly page of CyanogenMod for Oppo R5s and here i could go inside recovery menu.

Next problem now, was that for every zip of Mokee i was trying to flash, i got a message like "can't install this package on top of incompatible data" and here i did a big mistake: i did a factory reset which erased me all system partitions, data, and everything (also zip files of ROMs).

Looking on internet i saw that it was possible use adb to create again folder on /data/media/0 (emulation of sd card) and load zip that i can use from recovery to restore again the OS. The problem is that now, when i type "adb devices" i see my device "unauthorized" (before my mistake i could see my phone), so i'm not able to load zip on my phone. Tried to kill server, reboot, delete .android folder... nothing works.

I tried fastboot update <name_of_my_zip>.zip but i get message "archive does not contain 'android-info.txt".

I tried to put inside an empty txt file named like this, but now i get "archive does not contain 'boot.sig', archive does not contain 'system.img'"

I tried to fastboot these zip files: R8106_Spectrum_V1.1_Beta_full_wipe.zip, R8106EX_11.A.16_OTA_INT_016_all_150806_wipe.zip , MK60.1-r5-160801-RELEASE.zip, cm-13.0-20160803-NIGHTLY-r5.zip but i always got these errors.

The only thing that i can do now is flash CM recovery or ColorOs & ProjectSpectrum recovery .

Unlukily, any of these recovery allow me to mount folders from my pc.

So i would like to ask for your kind help to know how can i load zip file on my phone, or how can i install a zip from fastboot, or how can i get adb work again or if there is a tool for flash oppo (i remember there was something like this for Xperia...) or if do you know if there are some where some firmware which are good to be flashed with fastboot.

Many thanks
