I flashed this last night and it works like a champ
Been loving some jelly bean . ITS THE S%$@
I'm having some problems flashing this ROM. Every time I try to install from the SD card it gets stuck in a boot loop at the Samsung logo. Here is what I did:
1. Returned stock Gingerbread using this thread [HOW TO] Return to Stock (EH03 Gingerbread)
2. Installed Clockwordmod Recovery using odin (this version - http://cmw.22aaf3.com/aries/sch-i500/root/cwm4-bml-i500.tar)
3. Rooted my Samsung Fascinate
4. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
5. Installed CM 10 rom from SD Card
Here is where It gets stuck in a loop at the samsung logo. I don't understand what I am doing wrong. I was able to install CM7 just fine, but trying to upgrade to CM10 or installing CM10 on a fresh phone I get stuck. Any ideas?
Okay first is you'll need CWM fixed for CM7. Its specifically for Cyanogen Mod ROMS, the others won't work and will result in potential brickage. So first read through my entire post and place the all the ROM files in your SD card as you will be flashing them via CWM later on.
Also a good way to start off is flashing and KEEPING Team Hacksung's Build 2 then upgrade to CM10. Its not a must but alot of the other roms like MIUI used THS Build 2 as their base so in case you'd like switching its best to keep it in your SD Card.
Now on topic, you'll need to start off with going back to Stock Ginger bread.
Before flashing anything, I highly recommend you to do the 3 Wipes. (Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cahe) This is a must in my book, make backups if you so feel like doing it. Personally I use Titanium Backup, I'm not a fan of Nandroid Backups.
1. Root via Odin.
2. Push CWM Fixed for CM7 via Odin.
(Do not flash these via CWM! Use Odin, and make sure that you've installed your Samsung Fascinate Drivers!)
3. Reboot and then Boot into recovery via 3 button combo.
4. After downloading THS Build 2 -( Its basically ICS) and moved it to your SD card, Choose Zip from File and flash it.
5. Reboot.
6. Now you're going to do a soft boot into recover (hold the power button -> Reboot -> Recovery)
7. You can choose to do the Three Wipes again if you'd like.
8. Flash CM10 ROM.
All should go well. Any questions?

*Note on the AOSP Jelly Bean ROM, flash this after flashing THS CM10.
**I resolved all of my problems, which were most user error on my part. The play store was fixed by just simply logging out and back in.** thanks again for all hour help! Jelly bean is running like a charm, already better than ICS IMO.

I got jellybean running on my phone finally! (thanks to your guide) Although whenever I download anything from the play store I get
Error:
"App" could not download due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:AEC:0])
Any ideas?
EDIT: So i booted my phone into CWM recovery to check if I had the right gapps file on my phone (which I did) so I didn't flash or even change anything. But now I am stuck in it. When I hit reboot system now it just boots back into CWM instead of my device. ***After a bit of looking around it looks like using the 3 finger boot into recovery is a big no no....woops. Looks like I'm going back to stock and reflashing jelly bean. At least I know how to do it this time
You'll definitely want to push GB via ODIN first and CWM via ODIN as well. Next on the previous Page or so. You need to flash iCS. Well wait you know what, I'll make a brand new thread on a guide to flashing JB later so please bear with me for a couple of hours as I go through school.O.K.....I am enticed to make a move to the jellybean. I have had my Fascinate for almost 2 years and have been rooted with Eb01 2.2.1 Froyo with kernel 2.6.32.9 for forever. I am still new in my experience with all the techniques to updating, so I wanted to do the homework first before carrying a brick. My question is, can I go from my current setup to jellybean or do I need to hop-scotch to gingerbread or ice cream sandwich first? Any help you could lend will be appreciated. Than you.
