My fascinate wont boot to recovery - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cant seem to boot into recovery by holding both volume buttons and pressing power. I can get into it with "adb reboot recovery", or with quick boot or rom manager (but i current dont have root, so thats not an option).
But when i just try to turn the phone off and boot into recovery manually it just boots into android every time.

Try holding all three buttons until the sammy logo appears. Then release power button only.
Edit: Also try volume up ( or down...can't remember) , power, and home soft key.
And you prolly shoulda posted this in q&a section bud. Try to keep the forums clean and less cluttered.

Ive tried that repeatedly. Maybe im releasing the power button too late. But it just goes into the boot animation regardless.

Im at stock right now, no root at all. I had a semi-brick and had to odin stock DI01 all in one and then use the OTA to go to ea28. I then used odin to flash the DL05/DL09 recovery file. but i dont have root so i cant boot to recovery from the OS and i cant just manually go into it (at least it hasnt worked so far). The only way i can get into recovery is to issue "adb reboot recovery", but the OS has to be booted to use adb, and from my understanding you cant go into the OS before flashing the update zip. When i tried it failed about halfway through.

There is a all in one pack for odin on adroidcentral.com that has the corrwct clockwork recovery, is prerooted, and is froyo with superclean. Id go with that bud.

You can download the pre rooted eb01 and Odin that and from there use Odin to flash your recovery gizmo has a more up to date recovery in a thread here some things are still borked but its better than what we have had.

I don't care what anyone else says, the stock all-in-one EB01 has issues. Do it or not, the choice is yours, but it's the only way to TOTALLY wipe and fix the force reboots. You're not the only one with this problem, read around. Odin the all-in-one DJ01, then flash whatever EB01 you want if you want to fix it.
They say its because of the music widget on lock screen that's why they sent out 2.9.1 but i can't get into red recovery mode

Here, flash this in Odin. Attached it for you. Sorry if I came across as a tool. And I forgot about the music controls as I don't even use them. But flash this in Odin, then boot into recovery, VOILA, then flash the patch for SuperClean 2.9. Hope this helps.
So i have to flash red recovery in odin? do i need the update file on my sd card still
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I can't say for 100% sure that you don't need it AFTER flashing the red. I currently am running S.C. 2.9.1 voodoo EB16 kernel with RED CWR and I do not have the update.zip on my SDcard.
After you ODIN using the PDA button in odin (if you didn't already know ^_^), your phone should automatically boot into CWR red bypassing the stock recovery.
hope that helps!
ima try it
it worked for the red recovery and it said update complete i hope it fixed the random reboots

I odined the new ed01 radio last night and all went well until I went to odin a new clock work. it says pass and everything but when I reboot into recovery with the three finger solute it's the same old blue clock work. Any ideas?

that's the problem I can't flash another kernel because I only have stock recovery. for some reason I can't oden a new recovery. it acts like it goes through but then I reboot with the 3 finger salute and it's in the stock recovery again.

what if I pull the battery directly after oden finishes and then do the 3 finger to boot into recovery, would that keep it from going back to stock recovery?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
That'll work.
See, you aren't supposed to have the battery in when you use Odin anyways, that way, when it is done flashing, your phone just powers off making it easy to slap in the battery and do the three-finger into cwm at first boot.

make sure you unplug the phone before you put the battery in. if not, it'll just boot as normal.
There is no ED01 radio that we have available, so I'd be wary of whatever radio file you're flashing. Also, Odin 1.7 doesn't always work properly, try using version 1.3.

Side note on this, is there any practical barrier to bundling a kernel with a recovery Odin?
I noticed in the kernel packages that they generally modify /system when they install. So perhaps you would have to odin over data also to run in a script to complete the kernel install at boot. Meh, it would just be nice if installing recovery didn't require immediately wiping kernel and then odining recovery again.
I figured a compromise would be to CWM recovery with the kernel in the same step, then I noted I was just being lazy and it really isn't much trouble to go through once per factory restore.

I would download a CWM Odin file and one of the two odin files from here. Flash one of the two (doesn't matter which you do first) and once it completes, unplug the phone, and then plug it back in holding volume down to get back into recovery and flash the other file. You'll then have a stock kernel that won't re-flash recovery, so if you boot normally, it won't matter. You can also download Odin 1.3 from here

[q] cwm 3.0.2.8

Hey all,
Totally went back to stock...so started with DL09 and then proceeded up to ED04. I installed CWM (red) and rebooted into it and then rooted my phone. Worked great...this morning decided to wipe the battery stats...now it just goes to the Samsung (blue) recovery one. I decided to reflash with ODIN and it still just gives me the Samsung one. Any ideas on how to get this working again???
It sounds like your flash may have failed. Maybe try it again. It might be easier and more reliable to use heimdall in this situation as well.
Also, I know it's early, but this is a question and should be posted in the appropriate section.

Heimdall works like Odin. Cwr is being overwritten by the stock kernel, you should flash a custom kernel if you want cwr to stick.

You may have to flash a custom kernel to get your recovery permanent. I did the same thing to get the ed04 ota.
1. Flash the dl09 tar file in odin, don't reboot.
2. Flash the cwm3 odin file of your choice, don't reboot.
3. Boot into recovery using the 3 finger salute (should be the one you just odined).
4. Flash the custom kernel of your choice & reboot.
That should keep it rooted & keep cwm available to you, at least it did for me. The key, fwig, is to repalce the stock kernel cuz that is what will replace cwm when it boots.

Then flash a firmware with Odin you know how to root. Or better yet flash entropy512's stock plus root package.
By the way you should be able to get into recovery by holding down volume up + volume down + power button - do not let go off any buttons until you see the recovery menu - the bout splash screen will flash at least twice before recovery comes up.
