Posted this on XDA, but I'll try here too.
Rooted my wife's Fascinate prior to the OTA using z4. After the update, obviously z4 doesn't work. But superuser is still present, so manually rooting with ADB isn't working.
I have tried this method to no avail. Flashed the CWM tar in Odin, downloaded all the necessary files. When I try to apply the update.zip it fails every time. I get the android with ! on the screen.
I have downloaded both update.zips from the computer and transferred to SD card, downloaded to SD card from the phone directly... nothing works. I'm going to try CWM red tonight, but was just wondering if I'm missing anything.

I just found out I have Recovery (2e) on my phone. I can't install the update.zip, it keeps failing. How do I install the update.zip with this?
So this is all new to me I come from BBs as well. I get to the recovery (2e) blue and when I try and press the power button to apply sdcard:update nothing happens.
Now my phone is stuck in that mode. What do I need to do to get past this screen so I can apply the sdcard update.zip?

Well that helps me get some where. I was able to reboot it but now when I try to apply the sdcard update.zip I get taken to a screen where the android robot is there with a exclamation point is inside of a triangle. When I press the menu button I see a screen that says
(in yellow)
#MANUAL MODE #

What happens if you dont load that kernel... this is good stuff so i can add to the troubleshooting section for this rooting thread
So all of this is in effort to get the super clean 0.4 and when I use rom manager to install rom from sdcard it tells me that is is going to reboot in cwmrecovery but ends up rebooting into the regular recovery mode and then when I try and get into the cwmrecovery I still get the installation error. What do I need to do differently?
hit apply sdcard:update.zip that leads you into clockwork
i was asking Kevin, im still experimenting with this method aswell but im able to fuction properly but i had hiccups like you did aswell so dont get frustrated, just all part of the learning curve
