I was finally able to root stock EH03 using the su from [MOD][4.21.11] New Superuser package Root your Fascinate - xda-developers

The CWM method described doesn't work for me for some reason. It looks like the zip was installed correctly in recovery, but after reboot, apps can't get root. I tried letting Superuser update su from 2.3 to 3.0 but that failed as well since the phone is not really rooted. It may be time to...

That process (Post #2) doesn't work on my Fascinate. I doubt it works anywhere since there's no root exploit included. The command "mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/stl19/system" returns "Operation not permitted." ADB based roots I've used successfully require running an exploit to get...

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to root a stock Gingerbread Fascinate without flashing Clockwork ROM at least. I really liked being able to root without any ROM alteration (using ADB), but I can't find a way to do that any more.

Perfect! It worked like a charm. Thanks!

one click root problem on ED01 The one click root process breaks down on the mount command as shown above: mount: Operation not permitted I'm hoping for a revision of the one-click root or any other way to root ED01 without using CWM, since that makes future OTA updates a lot harder than just...

hardware needs software to matter Samsung did a great job with the hardware but the official OTA 2.2 update delay, intermittent freeze ups across all versions, and the continued inability to use the stereo out jack at the same time as Bluetooth handsfree in a car, shows me their software...
