[HOW TO] Root Froyo or Gingerbread on Your Fascinate

Easiest and less painful way is [HOW TO] Return to Stock (EH03 Gingerbread).

Essentially you're going to ODIN back to stock ROM and then you can root and whatnot afterwards. Has helped me countless times of messing up, whether it was bootloops, bricking, or sheer confusion.

Glad to have helped. Don't forget to flash the latest and greatest AOKP Jelly Bean ROM. Looks very clean and smooth.

You are good if you can get into the download mode. I had the same problem and fixed at this site [How to] Unbrick Samsung Android Phones with One Click [Guide]
