I have a Galaxy S, model SCH-I500. Bought at Verizon. Firmware 2.1 Update 1. I want to root it. I have downloaded the update.zip, and for some reason i cannot get the darn thing into recovery mode. I have tried it but it just keeps cycling the samsung logo. Any idea how to get this thing into recovery mode? Also i see a lot of info about rooting I900 phones. Can i still root mine? Let me know, thanks!

You have the Fascinate.

Where did you get the update.zip? It may not be for your device, ditch it.

Follow THIS METHOD to root.
