I am trying to update my Fascinate with the new ed04 update and everytime I try it fails. I have a rooted phone with CWM Red. Everytime it downloads the file it restarts and CWM Red comes up and sits there. How can I get around this? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Maybe go back to complete stock. Then take the update. Or you could just flash the ED04 radio if you want. It's in the Fascinate Development section.

You have to have stock recovery got the ota updates to work. Flash back to dl09 with heimdall our odin and get your ota that way

Ok for starters thanks in advance for the help i have found a ton of helpful stuff on the forum. im working with a samsung fascinate from verizon 2.2.1 and very long story short a ex-coworker rooted my phone for me and now i need a software update. its my understanding that being rooted prevents the ota update from installing. i never used any of the features of the root except i did the oneclicklagfix and a bloat freezer i also added a superuser app. here is what i have tried 1.i clicked the unroot in the oclf app. 2. tried to unroot using z4root app. 3 tried a factory reset. 4. downloaded odin and a stock recovery file following instructions on here (i get "check image files") the software update has a fix for the call connect issue with the fascinate (which is driving me nuts) i now seem to be stuck somewhere between rooted and un-rooted an app called root checker says im not rooted but i still cant update. please help me out i use my phone for work and miss calls like crazy im hoping the update will fix this.
have u tryed superone click they have a unroot button.

The ED04 update hasn't really fixed the issue according to a lot of reports here and on other forums...
Just odin your phone back to stock. Get the Dl09 radio tar file and Dl09 unrooted bloated rom and then you can do the ota. The Dl09 tar file you will flash with odin then the Dl09 zip file you will flash through recovery.

There is a full DL09 Odin file that would take care of everything in one swoop found in this thread
dont ask how
i dont know how or why but the update installed and i didnt really seem to fix anything. so im all good i think and thanks to all of you for such quick help.
I'm unable to pull the ED04 OTA since coming back from Gingerbread. I've been able to update to ED01 through zip files provided here but do not see one for ED04, except for the modem file. Was that the only thing updated/changed?
Anyone?

Try Odin to DLO9 and let it update. I have done it this way several times. I odined to EDO1 and ota didn't take. Don't know why.

That's the way I did it.
Is ED04 the latest Modem that Verizon has pushed?
I think so. It was the update after Froyo that was supposed to fix missed calls and OTA updating.
I've seen an EDO4 modem update.zip on here but don't know if that was the complete ED04 update. Hoping to get clarification.
I need to remove cwr red so I can update my fascinate to ED04 from ED01. HOW do I do this easily?

Flash the stock kernel and CWM will go away
Can you tell me what the stock kernal is again and how to do that? Thank you.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Get the stock ed01 recovery, kernel, and Rom from the dev section. Push that in odin, boot up, and get ota for ed04. If your lookin for just the ed04 modem, there is a thread for the modems. You will have to get dl09 modem and work your way up from there.

I flashed just the kernel but it did not remove cwr. I dont want to lose my apps and data. Any ideas?

Odin back to stock....done
Will I lose all apps and data? Are you saying flash the full ed01 tar file , 400 mb file?

Unless you can find the stock recovery by itself, you'll have to go back to stock

Or you can do that
here is the link, its easy
use odin to flash DL09
then use CWR to go from DL09 to ED04
OR
you can CWR from ED01 to ED04 in one Shot

I already have the ed04 modem flashed. I need my build to be ed04. The only way to get this is ny removing cwr and do an ota. Cwr will not let the update go through after it downloads, it says update failed when the phone reboots. It boots to cwr first and then goes through the other boot.

I was rooted so I flashed stock ROM and recovery but still the update is failing when trying to install....any Idea of what I would have to do to get completely back to stock and install the update?
I would way +/- with updating at this point. It looks like the new update is blocking the previous rooting exploit.
Overall though, in order to get the update its my understanding you need to be in stock recovery

Be glad you can't take the update. The ota licks down the bootloader so the Motochopper want give u root.

If you use the kies program from Samsung you can flash it back to the original firmware. In the tools menu there's an emergency recovery option.

Same problem here. Getting error 402 trying to OTA update.
Emergency Firmware Recovery in Kies requires a "recovery code from the previous PC".
I had a custom recovery before flashing the stock image. Should I need to flash the stock recovery in addition to the stock rom?
You would have lost root anyway..

I was able to do it through VZW software, regretting it lol I was hoping more bugs were fixed
Yes, I was only able to update using USB via Kies. Something still seems off, as wiping cache in recovery gives an error and reboots.
I haven't been able to update and have given up for now. I did two factory resets, and used Odin to flash back to stock twice, both without any luck. I went ahead and just set everything back up the way it was for now.
