Is the USB cable connected to pc?

You don't need to plug in usb to go into cwr if you have battery pulled and usb plugged in you are going into download mode..if its turned off hold up and down volume keys and press power button.
I was about to correct myself and state that is only to go into d/l mode for Odin. For recovery, power off phone, power back on while holding both volume keys.
Trying to return all the help you guys have provided me

Well you have to get into cwr before you can do anything

Assuming you have odin flashed the recovery tar, if you boot into stock blue recovery you need to scroll down one line and select update.zip thats the entry into green cwm from cold boot. Otherwise from Rom Manager is should be direct assuming you have Flashed ClockworkMod Recovery from Rom Manager [obviously select Fascinate], then reboot into recovery should take you right to green cwm
Wow..you are good! I never had that issue as I use ROM manager to get into CWM but I was able to duplicate Sim's issue and get to CWM via your suggestion.

if you have the original cwr installed and you battery pull and 3 button recovery.....it will flash to stock (blue) recovery....from there you have to click down once to apply update.zip and then it will take you into cwr
this is because original cwr wasnt a "full" recovery....when Koush built recovery for the cdma sgs phones it was easier to get around the half-assed lockdown bootloader by doing it that way....hes got a lot on his plate and that was probably the quickest way
remember there really werent a whole lot of devs working on the phone back then....now voodoo recovery is more "permanent"
I just wanted to say thanks for all the help, after Rooting/flashing/etc, even though I asked a lot of questions, I don't see how anyone could mess this up. It's really really simple and I've already done it to another buddies phone with no hiccups at all.
READ INSTRUCTIONS AND ASK QUESTIONS and you'll have no issues at all with all the knowledge/helpful people that post on this forum.
One more question:
On a Rooted/DJ05/NonVooDoo phone, do you power it off the same way? It seems like holding the power button down doesn't turn my phone off? Only tried it once but I figured I'd ask before I have to pull the battery.

if you hold the power button it should bring the option to turn off power...some themes (all SHOULD if the themers werent lazy) have reboot, recovery, download modes built in
the problem is if you flash a theme that has the reboot options in....then flash one that doesnt it screws with your system and kills the power button...best bet is to reflash a theme with built in reboot

Speaking of great themes.... Thanks a BUNCH for your Matted Blues v1.5 nitsuj17. It is AWESOME!

I'm going to make a thread about it then because mine doesn't work. Don't want to hijack this one anymore than I have.
Thanks!

I hope so. That way we don't have to disable dj05

even if they dont release it, id assume they d roll the gps fix into froyo or whatever and we just revert to DI01 radios if we have to to install froyo (which im sure will suck

So this may sound like a dumb ? But there wouldn't be a way for the devs to incorporate the dj05 radio into froyo if it didn't happen. I mean I know not right away but would it be possible at all?
