Hi So I am stuck in download mode when I tried to root my Fascinate with odin today it got a fail 1 success 0. I have tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds and a battery pull to no avail. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I would suggest that you get a .pit and re partition while you are going back to stock.

Thank you for responding but I have not rooted yet the problem occurred when I was trying to root.
are you following the [GUIDE] from droidstyle?? Section 6
Section 6: How to root stock froyo or gingerbread(This is not needed if your flashing a custom rom)
Downloads these files to PC,
Samsung drivers-
Odin (computer program)-
CWMALL 2.5 (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it)-
"su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file (place this file on the root of your sdcard...not within any folders)-
Modified stock Froyo kernel (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it). This file is only necessary if you're rooting Froyo. It's not necessary for Gingerbread-
Instructions:
1. Install Samsung drivers on your computer.
2. Open Odin on your computer. (You may need to disable antivirus programs on your computer and/or phone for this to work properly.)
3. Power off your phone and remove the battery.
4. Plug the stock USB cord that came with your phone into a powered USB port on your computer (usually on the back of the computer).
5. Press and hold the "volume down" button on your phone, and continue to hold it while plugging the USB cord into your phone. This will put your phone into download mode. You'll see a large yellow triangle on the screen of your phone. (Let go of the volume button at this point.) You will also see one of the small boxes in Odin turn yellow, as well as "Added" appearing in the message box.
6. Click the PDA button in Odin (NOT the PHONE button) and navigate to the "CWM2.5_Voodoo.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier. This file does not include a voodoo kernel and will not perform the voodoo lagfix conversion. It's only named as such to note that it is compatible with voodoo kernels.(make sure auto reboot is unchecked, although it should be by default)
7. Click START. When this process has finished, you'll be notified in Odin (succeeded 1 / failed 0) and your phone's screen will go blank.
*** Step 8 is only for rooting Froyo. If you're rooting Gingerbread, skip Step 8 and proceed to Step 9. ***
8. Unplug your phone and click RESET in Odin. Repeat Step 5 to get the phone back into download mode and recognized by Odin. Using the PDA button, navigate to the "stock_kernel.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier, select it, and press START. You'll again be notified in Odin once this process has completed (succeeded 1 / failed 0).
9. Unplug your phone and re-insert the battery.
10. Press and hold BOTH volume buttons. While holding them, press the power button. Hold all three simultaneously until you see "SAMSUNG" appear TWICE. This will boot your phone into CWM 2.5 red recovery. If your phone boots up normally here and not into recovery, just wait for it to boot up and then power it down and try again. It may take a couple tries for you to get it right.
11. Using the volume rocker, navigate down to "Install zip from sdcard." Highlight it and press the power button to select.
12. Navigate to "choose zip from sdcard" and select with the power button.
13. Navigate to the "su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file that you downloaded earlier and select it. Scroll to "Yes," and use power button to select.
14. When you're advised of completion, press the MENU softkey to go back to the previous CWM Recovery screen, then highlight and select "reboot system now."
*Thanks to Bhfd64 @ galaxy forums for this write up!!

Last I knew, one click root no longer worked on the Fascinate after the 2.2 update. Are you wanting to stay stock and just root or are you planning on moving on to one of the custom ROMs. I believe all the custom ROMs contain root so no need to root before going to one of them unless you want to root to use titanium backup to backup all your apps. If that is the case or you want to stay stock and just root the just flash CWM in ODIN, then flash the su + busybox file in CWM.
Download these files:
ODIN
CWM-recovery-all-3-30-fix
su-2.3.6.1 + busybox 1.19
ODIN and CWM files stay on computer, su + busybox file gets placed on phone sd card
Double click the ODIN file to open ODIN
Power down phone and pull battery
Hold volume down button while plugging phone into usb cord connected to pc
Yellow triangle will appear on phone and furthest left rectangle on ODIN will change to yellow
Click PDA button, find CWM file and double click on it, click Start button, should take 7 seconds
Close ODIN, unplug USB cord, put battery in phone but don't power on
Hold volume up, volume down, and power buttons until samsung logo flashes twice
As soon as samsung logo appears for second time, let go of all three buttons
You should be in CWM, volume buttons to scroll to "install zip from sd card", hit power button
Scroll to "choose zip from sd card", power button
Find the su + busybox file, scroll to it, power button
Scroll to Yes, power button
When that finishes, soft menu key until you are back at the main CWM menu where "Reboot system now" will be highlighted, power button to reboot phone, and you are rooted.

2 questions. 1, does the work on the new OTA? 2, does this wipe the phone?
Friend did the OTA, and it broke root. Need to find a way to root without clearing out the phone.
Thanks

No, this will not clear data. It merely establishes root and flashes a custom recovery, CWM. Haven't tried rooting from the newest OTA.

Hi guys,
I just used Download Mode + Odin to push T110.CWM.v6.0.4.8.tar.md5 to my T110 Tablet.
After that I could boot into CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.8 without issues.
Then I installed the zip file android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip
After that I rebooted. And since then I was not able to boot into Android or even Download Mode.
Only Recovery Mode works.
Then I tried to run adb devices from Windows and it reports my device ID number + recovery.
Now I was hoping somebody could help me with some adb commands to get this thing working again.
My initial goal was to root and upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2.
I would prefer using this lite rom T110UEUANE4.LiteV2.Rooted.Deodexed.June2014.zip instead of the official rom T110XXUANG2_T110OXAANG2_XEO.zip.
But at this point I would not care to much, I just hope it can be fixed again
Many thanks for your help!

Now i haven't tested beyond that but i found a youtube link for flashing stock rom via odin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ChtmNtpk3c
but this is in spanish so i translated in english here..
You must install Samsung KIES to ensure that your PC detects your phone.
After downloading install Odin
1 - Restart the phone in Download Mode ( Vol down , Home, Power Simultaneously ) .
press volume up to continue ( or vol down to leave but it can damage... )
2- Start Odin
3 - select files and press Start
Watch Out !!! Never unplug your phone before restarting
After 5-10 minutes your phone will reboot to your new ROM
stock rom download below:

Thank you very much! Although my SCH-i589 is currently hard brick, I think it will be very useful! -- Greetings from new members after 8 years
Here I share the steps that worked for me (G973F) to install a custom ROM/MOD.
01. Download ASF3 and flash it through Odin (or the last one compatible with the ROM or MOD you wish to use).
02. Install Magisk Manager from here.
03. Extract AP and copy it to SDCard.
04. Open Magisk Manager, press Install and patch AP. It will generate a magisk_patched.rar on \internal storage\download.
05. Copy magisk_patched.rar to your computer.
06. Reboot your phone to download mode.
07. Flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in ODIN, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files. Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options!
08. Unplug USB cable, press Power + Volume Down to exit download mode. As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press Power + Bixby + Volume Up to boot to recovery partition and continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
09. In the stock recovery menu select Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
10. Select Reboot system now, and immediately press Power + Bixby + Volume Up. After seeing the bootloader warning screen, release all buttons.
11. The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots, this is completely normal and done by design.
12. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need internet connection.
13. You shall see Magisk Manager in your app drawer; if not, manually install it again and continue to the next step. The app would be a stub and it shall automatically upgrade to the full Magisk Manager when you open it.
14. Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
15. Download TWRP from here and copy twrp_ianmacd.img to your SDCard.
16. Open Magisk Manager, press Install and patch twrp_ianmacd.img from the step before. It will generate a magisk_patched.img on \internal storage\download.
17. Copy magisk_patched.img to your computer and rename it to recovery.img
18. In your computer open magisk_patched.rar with 7-zip, remove recovery.img and then add recovery.img from previus step to magisk_patched.rar.
19. Reboot your phone to download mode.
20. Flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in ODIN, the rest of the fields remains blank. Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options!
21. Unplug USB cable, press Power + Volume Down to exit download mode. As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press Power + Bixby + Volume Up to boot to recovery partition and continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
22. Now you are in TWRP Recovery, format Data and then reboot to recovery.
23. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need internet connection.
24. You shall see Magisk Manager in your app drawer; if not, manually install it again and continue to the next step. The app would be a stub and it shall automatically upgrade to the full Magisk Manager when you open it.
25. Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
26. Download the ROM / MOD of your choice to your phone SDCard.
27. Reboot your phone, as soon as the screen turns off, immediately press Power + Bixby + Volume Up to boot to recovery partition and continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
28. Once you are in TWRP install the ROM / MOD of your choice but don't debloat (if the ROM / MOD has this option).
29. Once install finishes don't reboot, go to TWRP and reboot to Recovery.
30. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need internet connection.
31. After that you can boot to TWRP and install the ROM /MOD again debloating what you want, again if the ROM / MOD has the option.
As an advice, I don't recommend to debloat Chrome.
I hope that this can help someone
Thank you so much, that's very helpful indeed!
If I just want to have magisk in my stock rom without twrp, I should only follow steps 1-14?

Yes, it's the same.
In the step 18 you should take magisk_patched.rar from step 5 and replace recovery.img with the patched one in step 16 (previusly renamed)

Sorry but in step 4, it generate a magisk_patched.tar instead of .rar....
Can I continue with that?

No, something its wrong. When you patch the AP (.tar.md5) file with Magisk, it should generate a "magisk_patched.tar" file in \internal storage\download\
Please check if you are using the correct Magisk Manager from https://github.com/ianmacd/MagiskBuilds

First you must keep pressing Power + Volume Down buttons until you get out of Download Mode and your phone shuts down, after that immediately you must press Power + Bixby + Volume Up to boot to Recovery and continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
I hope it helps!

Huawei Mate X ROM MOD?
I am planning to flash Lineage OS 17 on my S10e, is the guide still relevant or is there an updated version?
> 20. Flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in ODIN, the rest of the fields remains blank. Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options!
In the official magisk installation guide is stated:
Reboot to download mode, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in Odin, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files. Never flash only an AP file, as Odin can shrink your /data file-system if you do.
Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options!
I dont know if it can cause problems..
