Solution for Stuck on Downloading… Do not turn off Target!!! Problem
If you were trying to flash, update or factory reset your phone on your Verizon Fascinate, you might get stuck on a yellow triangle warning sign with an Android bot shoveling with the message, “Downloading… Do not turn off Target!!!”.
This is your phone’s download mode and if it doesn’t clear up soon, you can disable this mode by pressing the volume up button for a few seconds and your phone will boot up as normal. If this doesn’t work, you can pull out your battery and put it back in for a restart.
Even if it is downloading, the system is not under a full flash or update so it shouldn’t harm your device in any way.
I do not want to normally reboot phone again. I want to upgrade android 2.1 to 2.2 through kies. When downloading screen appears it stucks. What can i do? Plz help.. Thanx in adv.
plz halp me
If you have a Verizon Fascinate, you are entitled to a 2.2 Froyo update. This seems to be done in some sort of specific order since there are multitudes of users. For Verizon Fascinate, it will download and install the update for you automatically when your turn comes and when you restart your phone. It will give you instructions from there.
2.2 update for the Fascinate is excellent, especially with the long GPS fix issue I’ve been long waiting for.

I threw mine on the floor and stomped on it, then ‘fonzi-d’ it a few times… and somehow it is all better now! Crazy scary when you use your phone to help run a business, phone store (fruit shaped phone store), here I come!
