So I wanted to return to stock kernel so I flashed the stock recovery to do so with ez recovery. Now when I reboot it keeps going back into stock and won't boot please help!!!!
Try flash a new one with Odin or if all else fails just flash a firmware via Odin. That's a last resort though.
I have no idea what has happened but its fixable so relax, take a deep breath!

I didn't get you..you wanted to go back to stock kernel so you flashed stock recovery ???
I have never heard of stock recovery..and what does going back to stock means..anyways..find the stock firmware for your region..go into download mode..connect to Odin via pc and flash..
Next time be clear with your question.

So I recently flashed to aospish_jk2_v1.0. Works just fine. But I wanna goof around with some other roms. But when I try to flash to other roms or my previous stock backup, it goes into the recovery flashing screen for about 2 seconds. Then the phone restarts and I'm in recovery. When I reboot the phone I'm still on the same rom..what should I do? Try to use odin to flash another rom?

are you flashing though the clock work recovery? Is the recovery letters blue or green?
I've found the best way to go between roms is always Odin back to stock, then install the new rom. That seems to prevent most problems.

I used rom manager to flash. But when in recovery letters are blue and it says android system recovery. So I'm assuming clockwork recovery actually hasn't installed?

You need to open rom manager and flash the CW recovery... from rom manager then click on flash to CWR... it will take you to stock recovery, click on reinstall packages.
now you are at CWR and can flash new rom.
Ah. My problem was that I never flashed ce recovery properly. Thanks guys.

im having the same problem and i am flashing through cwr dont know how to fix this please help
yesterday iwasaperson was extremely helpful to me. Thanks. I took my fascinate back to stock 2.1 and allowed it to update to 2.2. I then rooted my phone by flashing CWM recovery using ODIN. (red version) I had installed two files to root of drive one update.zip and the other for rooting the phone Su-----.zip. I ran them using the red version and restarted the phone. The phone is now rooted but I can't get back to CWM recovery.
I tried the following: I have ROM manager and flashed CWM but it wom't take. If I try to go into recovery I get the stock Samsung blue menu. I am thinking I need a different (CWM recovery comptabile) kernel or mod to get this to work.
Can someone help?
You need to flash a kernel other than stock, rebooting with the stock kernel will revert back to blue recovery

I have flashed CWM again with odin. It still won't take

This (though in reverse order).
You need to reflash CWM by odin, go into Odin immediately upon the first boot (not using Rom Manager!), and flash a new kernel from the SDcard. The stock kernel will trash CWM if it gets a chance to boot.
saf66. any ones in mind and where I can obtain them. And as if I weren't asking enough questions. (Sorry I know I am) Methods to flash them?
Or any others of you please

I am sure, this has been posted somewhere, but am new to this forum and cannot find it. please bear with me.
I installed CM7 on my Galaxy ace and tried to restore back to stock ROM. the restoration failed, the phone is now in a bootloop (the samsung logo flashes once every two seconds). I tried getting the phone into recovery mode but it does not get that far.
However, I am able to get the phone to download mode and tried loading the stock 2.3.3, 2.3.5 ROM via ODIN. Both times, ODIN passed the installation. but my phone has not improved. can anyone please help?
PS: consider me a beginner.
after flashing from odin go to recovery and do full wipe

I wish I could do that. My phone does not get that far.. it restarts before that. Can I do this from the PC anyway?
Search clockwork mod recovery that has 205mg its flashable via odin
Try to flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1121192
Flash it with odin choose it as pda
might say aint compatibile but flash anway
yeah. just tried that. I downloaded the file and chose that as PDA and flashed my phone with odin.. I am still getting the same problem. I guess, the warranty is void since I installed CM7.. so what to do now?
well before giving up you could just let it do its thing for like an hour and see what happens...

Flashed a full package ROM ?
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.
Wait from where did you downloaded firmware snd which version of odin did you used.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
the same happened to me also.
in the past i've flashed my ace with cm7 and wanted to go back to the stock rom.
flashed the stock rom with odin but the phone stuck in a boot loop.
if you have flashed stock rom with odin..
do this..
remove the phone batteries and let them out for a minute.
after that insert the battery again and goto the Recovery mode by holding the power and the home button.
once you are in recovery (Clockworkmod Recovery).
do a data/factory wipe.
a cache wipe
and a Dalvik Wipe.
and reboot the phone.
hope you phone boots normally.
Am using ODIN version 4.38.
downloaded the original CM7 version from this site ported by grif (Kooper Kang something).
When I had problems with that, I tried to revert to Stock rom 2.3.3 from sammobile.com
To answer other question, I am NOT able to go to the recovery menu. Hence cannot wipe cache, reset etc. The phone restarts before that. The only mode I am able to switch on is the Download mode. Even if I reload the ROM with ODIN showing a "PASSED" at the end of the process, my phone is still a brick.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
Seriously, I've seen this before. It can only be fixed by the service centre... flash the stock rom and take it in under warranty if you still have it.

Wrong, after flash the stock rom with ODIN take battery, insertt battery, the keep pressed Home button and Power button until it goes to Samsung Recovery, then do the full wipe and reboot.
First off I know I shouldn't have done this before I was sure what I was doing, but I have done it.
I have used chainfires mobile odin pro to flash siyah's latest kernel to my rooted s3. i put the .tar on external sd. Opened mobile odin, opened file, and pressed flash. It said it's dangerous, I pressed continue and the phone immediatly rebooted, and is now stuck on boot loop.
I had never updated the phone from when it first came out, I just rooted and kept stock rom.
Any help much appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
Try to boot into download mode if this works you can flash a stock or custom Rom and kernel through Odin ans it should fix your problem.
Or try to boot into recovery and flash a custom Rom, either way should fix the bootloop.

As a precaution I'm going to ask if you have the American or international model.

Currently in download mode, going to try to install the latest kernel. Do you think that should work, or should I install custom rom?

I would say you just need to flash the kernel if that's all you changed, the Rom should be fine.

Did you choose kernel>open file>flash?
I've just downloaded the latest CM10 ready to flash, booted into recovery but now I can't get out. its glitchingwhen I try to move between the menus and the power button to select doesnt do anything.
I've tried pulling the battery out, tried rebooting by holding down the power button, but all ends up back in recovery where I can't do anything.
Never had a problem with it before, phones been working fine and haven't changed anything since booting into recovery, CWM version is 5.8.4.0.
Any suggestions?
When it boots into recovery, try flashing the zip again. Worked for me when flashing CM9 on my SGS.
Can you get into download mode?

I managed to get out of it, but had to spend quite a while pressing buttons. It's glitching all over the place!
Trying to update CWM through ROM manager but that seems to keep on crashing too. Can I just find and flash the latest CWM Touch to update it and stop it glitching?
Don't use ROM manager to flash anything, use Odin or mobile Odin.
In fact, use Odin to flash cf-root, it roots and flashed cwm at the same time.

Oh I did that ages ago, I was talking about updating to the latest version of cwm. Is the best way just grabbing the latest zip from the thread in general discussion and flashing it?
And the only reason I wanted to flash through ROM manager is because recovery mode was glitching so couldn't navigate through the menus properly.

Yep, get the .tar and flash of with Odin or mobile Odin and that's the best way.
In future if recovery is glitchy just boot into download mode and flash a new recovery, I've had issues similar to yours on my galaxy nexus when touch recoveries came out first, flashed back to "classic" cwm and perfect.
