[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faythy:
Unable to make my own thread so jumping in here.

I am having an issue where I tried to do this videos description:

youtube watch?v=0JrqZwHXEmY

Which lists out 1.) Download Samsung drivers here (scroll down hit downloads tab and it will bring up drivers)

2.) Download Odin here:

3.) Download ClockWorkMod (cwm4 fixed for cm7)

Put these files on your SD card

4.) Download ICS (rom) Team hacksung

5.) Scroll down to CyanogenMod 9.x.x and download gapps file 20120429

Steps

1. Install drivers on PC. 2.) In phone go to settings, Applications, Development, check USB Debugging, 3.)Open Odin on pc. 4.) Take battery out, put phone into download mode by plugging in factory USB cable while holding down on volume button. 5.) Click PDA on Odin and open file "cwm4 fixed for cm7" and hit start on Odin. 6.) Let pass, unplug USB cable and boot into recovery by holding the power button and volume up and down at same time. Wait for Samsung logo to flash twice and let go. 7.) Wipe Data,cache partition,and Delvik cache under advanced. 8.) Install zip from SD card,choose zip from SD card and select Teamhacksung zip file. It will reboot.

To get Google play App reboot into recovery (DO NOT USE 3 finger method!), choose zip from SD card install the gapps file 20120429, and reboot. DO NOT WIPE ANY DATA OR CASH THIS TIME! If you have any questions leave me a comment and I will help you out. Thanks!!

After doing this. I only got as far as :

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Initialzation..

Nothing after this, it's just staying there. So I closed Odin, and tried to turn my phone on. I got the Phone>Yellow Triangle>Computer. Tried looking through many forums and tried a few "fixes" but none worked. Last one I tried was this one:

1.Open Odin then just minimize it you will come back.

*DO NOT change or alter any of the settings in Odin very important.

1. Put your phone into download mode. You can see how i did it in the video. Plug your data cable into your phone powered off. Hold the volume down button then plug your usb into your computer. When you see the yellow triangle let go off volume.

2 Things should happen now !

~ Your phone should be in download mode. Download mode looks like a yellow triangle with the android robot in the middle screen.

~ Odin should recognize your phone and you should see a yellow box appear in the ID:COM tab

2. Click on PDA button in Odin and navigate to the folder on your computer that the DI01package.tar file was downloaded to. Select the file when you find it.

3.Hit START

It will start doing all the work flashing everything. You won't have to do anything but just sit back. Odin will say DONE in green when the process is complete.

*make sure your phone stays plugged in throughout the entire process.

The process takes between 5-20 minutes just be patient. You will see the Verizon sign again when the phone boots up. There you go your Samsung Fascinate should now be restored !

Same thing:

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> Enter CS for MD5..

<ID:0/003> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<ID:0/003> Please wait..

<ID:0/003> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<ID:0/003> Leave CS..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Initialzation..

And I am stuck there.

I was able to take the phone out and I was able to get into the boot menu. I could click on Factory reset etc. and it said it was doing it and I have tried to clear cache and data and it has said that it has done it. When I go to reboot though, its back to the Phone>Yellow Triangle>Computer symbol. And will not work again

I am unsure of what to do. This phone was never Rooted or anything, I had just tried to do it that first time and it didn't work or show any progress. I am unsure of what to do from here.
