I just rooted my friends Fascinate using SuperOneClick and then I installed Rom Manager and flashed clockwork mod but when i go into recovery it says it installation of update.zip failed. Where can I get the update.zip for it. I am trying to flash the dl-30 leaked rom thats out I have it. just cant get the update.zip so he can properly use clockwork mod.
You need to first flash CWM via Odin, before you can use the update.zip. Also, DL30 is an OLD and buggy froyo leak, EB01 is the most recent one, and the ones most of the new roms are being based on.
Thanks I did that. Note when I go into clockwork and try to use nandroid to make a back up I get an error that says its un able to mount his sd

You might be using an old Clockworkmod. Use this one here.
Edit: I updated the link with the one I use.
Do I just odin this on the fascinate?

Yes you just flash it and you will have CWM red
Thanks. This helped alot
I go to ROM Manager, download the latest recovery, go to reboot to recovery, and as the stock recovery flashes the update.zip to get into clockwork, it blanks then the "samsung" boot up screen comes up and it goes into the stock recovery. I downloaded the newest clockwork recovery dozens of times, tried flashing older versions and ROM Manager says there's an error...this started happening when I flashed the newest version onto my phone I believe. Why is this happening???

Did you also flash CWM recovery in Odin? Because you won't be able to access it without doing that. There are instructions on how to do this in the development section.

Well on rom manager, it gives me the option to flash it straight from my phone. That's how I always got clockwork but now it hasn't been working since the latest update

Use odin to flash CWM found here. Then delete rom manager and forget it exists.

CWM
I always lose the "red" CWM. I will use the green as long as I can. It is the only one that boots consistently.
ive gone over it here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960118 see if any of those tips help you.
I was getting ready to Flash the EE03 Rom so I tried to get into clockwork but was stuck on the SAMSUNG Bootup screen, and the bottom menu/home keys won't turn on.
PLEASE HELP! THANKS.

can't boot into clockwork, could only boot into download mode.
Make sure you're using the specified version of clockwork in the directions.

Yes, I'm using the latest version. But that doesn't matter because I can't even get into CWM. It's stuck on Samsung Screen during bootup, bottom lights won't light up.
ahh.... i'll just start all over and ODIN back to EC05. Hopefully that will work.

Yes Odin to stock EC05. Root with CWM3.0.2.5 one-click then flash the rom. I had the same problem. Make sure the ROM is on your SD card before you get started though.

No. All fixed now. Thank goodness. I just ODIN back to stock, re-rooted with CWM, and started over. All is working well!
Odin always works
Same thing happened to me my first flash of EE03. Re Odin, reflash and make sure to properly wipe.....lol.... I flashed the rom and the add ons first, then odin'ed the modem. The second time it worked like a charm. Give it a try, you will love the results.... Btw, try out the tw4 theme too..... Amazing

After Odin back, go to system updates and update profile. I did this and got the update about 3 minutes later. Could be coincidence, but it can't hurt to try

If your stock, just download the update directly from google. Put it on your sd card and boot into stock recovery and run it. It is essentialy the same thing as the ota.

Sounds about like here
We have the same situation. My wife got it today(didnt do the update) downloaded it went to CWM recovery and then the update of course failed. Now the update zip isnt even on her sdcard anymore. Is everything updated with the zip( such as kernel,modem, and rom etc.) or just the rom and modem.
I just downloaded, renamed to update. Powered off and booted in to stock recovery. Ran the zip and....wait for it...I have EI22! Thank you for your help!! Now time to root

Good luck with rooting your phone you will need it.

Its easy now. Just flash the clockwork tar in odin, and don't boot the system because when you shut it down, you'll lose your root. You need to flash a kernel, like nubernal or house of samurai to get it to stick.

Is there a one click root for EI22 like EC05?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
No one click root is out for EI22, as far as I am aware of
From stock EC05, I just used odin to update the modem from ec05 to ei22, then used the one click root to install CWM 3.0.0.1, then used CWM to install my fav EI22 ROM

Thank you all so much for your help. I rooted this morning and now I am running ACS ICS v5 with the Samauri Kernel OC to 1.49!!! WOW, amazingly fast! I think my quadrant was just over 3200 this morning.
Ok so recently I odined back to el30 (as I do at least once a week) and now I can not flash any mtd roms... I have tried redownloading and reflashing the recovery and rom(s) multiple times... cm9 as an example, I flash and it reboots to do the mtd conversion, goes back into cwm and boots... it gets to the boot animation (on aosp roms, tw mtd reboots right after the kernel splash screen) goes through it (sometimes makes it through) and then reboots... after flashing and it won't boot I have to pull battery and that's when the next problem begins... phone will not power on, charge, go into cwm... nothing.... I can get to download by using the slide battery in and out trick... its not the battery, after an odin it charges and boots perfectly (until I try to flash another mtd rom)... not bad downloads... I always check md5 before flashing... anybody have any insight as to what may be going on...
Edit- if you're not going to post something useful to try and help, don't post at all... so don't post stupid things like ... shouldn't be odining once a week". Comments like that don't help and are way off base... I know people that odin 2 times as much as me and have been flashing twice as long so please keep the dimwitted comments to yourself!

Maybe its possible your nand storage is going out? It can only handle so much read/write :-\

I guess that is possible... but I only started flashing roms and such when I signed up for xda... so november I believe... I know some people that have flashed way more than me... wouldn't that result in bml roms not flashing also?

Don't know. Throwing ideas out that are possible. I've seen people where their phone wouldn't run anything than straight up stock :-\
The Epic is finicky lol.

I know that's true.... but can it just start being picky out of nowhere... I have ran cm9, miui4, well let's just say every mtd rom this phone has available... odined last week and now no mtd roms will boot... about to odin an e4gt rom and brick my phone and tell sprint it happened when it was updating to whatever the newest stock rom is... I'M AT A LOSS!

You tried Odin with repartition, the odin cwm 5.027 with reboot unchecked, pop battery out and in and then flashing CleanGB MTD?
You also said after trying the TW install it bricks requiring battery cpr. You could bring it right to Sprint at that point since nothing works then. Unless it only takes 1 in and out to get it into download mode.|

Its usually only one in and out... and yes I have tried odin multiple times and then tried EVERY MTD rom... I did get clean gb to boot once after this started happening... and then later that day shut my phone off and it wouldn't turn back on... now not even clean gb will make it past the splash screen... usually just rebooting the splash screen over and over... sometimes making it to the boot ani and then shutting completely down with the only way to fix being odin with the battery "cpr"... this phone is going through a wall super soon! I would ask if any devs would want it when I upgrade (probably next week) but I don't know how useful it will be without working mtd partition...

That is exactly the method that I always use... I don't bother rooting stock and then flashing... just odin cwm and flash a prerooted build... and before anybody suggests it, yes I have tried rooting stock and then trying... same results...

Always.... even though its not necessary when flashing most of the time... I wipe EVERYTHING with EVERY flash... redundant and unneccessary? Yes... but it makes me feel better... lol. That and I only have like 10 apps so its not a big deal to redownload for me... lol

Yeah used to odin regularly to keep it clean, usually fixes more than destroys. I don't see why mtd won't boot for you. You might have a bad partition table. Your phone must not like mtd. I knew somebody with the same problem, they ended up taking it into sprint and they gave him a new phone.

this would make sense... but I have had multiple mtd roms already... could the partition go bad out of nowhere? And if so how would I go about having sprint replace it... stock bml works fine...

Did you use the victory_8G_100528.pit file and check repartition? It seems like it isn't properly restoring your boot partition when you odin, if you didn't use a .pit file that could be why. There was also a totally bulletproof upgrade program that samsung posted on it's website a quite a while ago to upgrade to Froyo, it should still be floating around xda somewhere. If nothing else works try that.
