[Q] Help!

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?

Can't get into clockwork recorvery -__-

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.

There are plenty of links floating around but many of them appear to be broken. Maybe try doing a Google search? Sorry I can't be more specific/helpful.

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.

The kernel with that rom is a custom kernel and key layout is designed in the rom for it only. If you've done the back up and don't have haptic that's very odd as haptic is now native to Samsung GB. I suggest re-flashing the kernel by using sgs kernel flasher and choose the rom zip as the kernel. It will auto extract only the kernel.
Other than that you can reflash the rom by simply flashing cf-root 3.2 and then use cwm app to flash the rom. It wont do a wipe this time because the new script will auto detect that you already have 3.5 so all your settings and apps will remain intact.

Yes roms in the developement section here can all usually be flashed through cwm unless otherwise stated. And I've never needed to unroot, but odin is a windows gui for flashing tar's(which are roms usually official and modems). You use Odin when you want to go back to complete stock, or modems usually. You can do other things with Odin such as flash custom recoveries like cwm. Odin is your bestfriend if you mess something up, always make sure to use a premium blackberry or other thick cable besides the one that came with the phone when using odin.(most people have difficulties with stock cable.)

Cwm

Hi guys,
I'm on samsung stock rom cuz im on holiday. I didn't flash any cf-root kernel. Is there anyway to flash root via stock recovery? After I have root could I flash cwm than?
Remember: I'm on my phone. I haven't got any pc with me!

No

Use this and flash a rooted kernel.

I tryed to this link but it seems that is not working...Is my internet issue ?

Link works for me, but you need root for SGS kernel flasher, so it won't work.
