Hey guys,
I rooted my Fascinate successfully, then I installed Titanium Backup.
On TB, I tried 'force uninstalling' VZW Apps.
Then, my Fascinate crashed, and now it boots into recovery.
On recovery, I can't do anything. I'm planning to reset my Fascinate. :(
Do I need to re-flash CwM Recovery to reset?
Also, do I keep Superuser when I reset?

Android version: 2.3.5

Thanks.

No need to flash again. Since you are still on gingerbread you can use 3 finger method to get into cwm (hold power volume up and down to turn on the phone until the Samsung screen flashes)

You probably don't even have to flash a new rom and can just do a full user data wipe. The caveat to that would be if you tried to push the bad apk as a system app.

Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium

Edit: I assumed you had flashed cwm to start since you said reflash but nowhere do you state that you actually have. In any case, try 3 finger. If you end up in cwm you arr golden. If its Samsung recovery then flash cwm.

Oh, and ALL decent roms come pre rooted so don't worry about that. And there's really no reason to use the Samsung stock from as both superclean and geewiz are based on it and include additional fixes and features not found in stock
