red recovery after reboot

Just recieved this phone yesterday (used). Previous owner gave me a clean wipe with the verizon bloatware.

Followed all of section 1. Everything goes successful.

phone tells me it is Done! partitions will be converted to ext4 upon next boot if Vodoo conversion has not been done.
Install from sdcard complete.

However, after my reboots the phone just boots back into red recovery (CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x)

any ideas?

I've attached the log files that Voodoo created on the sdcard

make sure your getting back to reboot system now in cwm, not reboot recovery.

Speaking of Questions....

Might be a stupid question(s) but do I have to root my phone before using this guide or does this guide root it as well? If I do have to root first, what method is usually recommended? Thanks for the help guys and awesome guide!

no these roms are prerooted

That was confusing to me too as my phone is a Droid Incredible and you have to gain root with s-off on the HTC's. I guess the difference is that the Fascinate doesn't have a locked bootloader? Is that why we can just flash a new Rom without gaining additional security on the file system?

Yea for the most part... the only reason to root is if your staying on the stock rom and want to remove bloat and run rooted apps... all current custom roms for the fascinate will root the phone when flashing...so that step is no longer needed. If the device needed to be rooted before flashing, I would of mentioned it in the op of the guide. Follow the directions in the appropiate section for the rom your trying to flash and all will be good. ;)

Sorry for the million noobish questions, but looking at the instructions it is just putting a Rooted Rom right on top of the current system. I'd like to be able to do a Nandroid before flashing any Rom's.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25089906/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe

    Odin (computer program)- http://www.mediafire.com/?429fcpdtpckkcea

    CWMALL 2.5 (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it)- http://www.mediafire.com/?6x5utoca59et7o9

    "su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file (place this file on the root of your sdcard...not within any folders)- http://www.mediafire.com/?38vozx7n37u02a5

    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- http://goo.gl/QCYxT

    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."

    Section 7: Radio/Modems- Here is a list of imo the best radios for the fascinate...now this does not mean another radio wont work better for you, this topic is very subjective. These radios are compatible with any fascinate rom.



    [EC09]- http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=631016&d=1308583586 This gingerbread radio gives me really good data speed w/ the least amount of 1x swtiching
    [EH03]-http://www.mediafire.com/?uuvxtuwonl2e629 This latest gingerbread radio gives good data speed, but It spends alot of time in 1x
    [ED05]-http://www.mediafire.com/?c7h1wl5wne51duf This is probably the best froyo radio, but I get better data speeds with the gingerbread radios. Although this radio has less 1x switching than eh03 imo

    Step 1: Downlaod odin and samsung drivers from one of the previous sections to pc

    Step 2: Download one of the radios from above to pc

    Step 3: Power off phone, pull battery, and plug in usb cable from phone to pc

    Step 4: Hold volume down until yellow triangle appears (download mode)

    Step 5: Open odin and put the file you downloaded from step 2 in the pda function of odin and hit start

    Ok guys I overhauled section 4...added gb bootloaders, updated gapps link, and removed some redundant steps that were reported no longer necessary. I no longer have a fascinate so Im counting on you folks now to help keep this guide current and up to date on the latest. Thx
