Keep holding power and volume down for awhile it will get you into recovery
or go to fastboot and reflash recovery and then go to recovery and reflash

It will only get me back into stock android recovery (e2) and if even after going in it, android guy with "!" shows up, then i can click volume + and - at the same time and even after wiping everything again, when i reboot it nothing happens

You can't use bootstrap recovery to flash CM9.
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=null for how to install cwm via Fastboot.

I've tried flashing recovery via Odin and CWM Recovery and it will reboot into recovery just fine. However, when I let it reboot into android, turn it off, and then go back into recovery, CWM is gone. The phone, however, stays rooted.
Any idea what could be wrong or how to fix this?
Secondly, if I can get into CWM immediately after flashing, is it safe to flash a new ROM at that point or do I need to get CWM to stick first?
Anyone? Any suggestions at all will be appreciated

Sure... You can flash a rom immediately following the flash of cwm.... Did you also install busy box?
Which cwm are you trying to use? 5.8.4.7 seems to do me good....?

Before your phone boots after installing cwm in Odin do a battery pull then boot into recovery （Volume Up+Home+power) then flash your superuser/root package. It will stick then.

I tried using that CWM version as well as an older one. Both work and I can get busy box and superuser installed once it boots up. But when I power down and try to go back into recovery, CWM is gone. I do get to keep root though.

I tried unchecking the auto-reboot button on Odin 4 and 7, and going that route. Both allow me to get into CWM, where I try to flash the recovery v5.zip. Still doesn't stick unfortunately.
My flash counter is up to about 10 now, trying to get CWM to stick..

Flashing 5.8.4.7 after renaming it to recovery.img with mobile odin did the trick for me and it stuck.

Thanks everyone. I used CWM toolkit, reflashed the stock recovery, then used odin 3.07 to re-flash CWM 5.5.0.4 and it stuck.
I am new to android. I didn't really understand what flashing a custom ROM was but I decided to do it anyway. Look how that turned out! I bricked my galaxy player! It just shows the recovery screen. I tried restoring it using Odin but it stays the same.
ok
get it in download mode (vol down + power) and flash the appropriate kernel
Nope

Hold power and volume up until it powers off. Hold volume down while pressing power. It will boot into bootloader.
Don't take this the wrong way, but if you're going to be flashing kernels, you should learn how to recover from stuff like this, first.

Yeah, that i know
So if i hard shutdown then reboot into bootloader, i can access recovery. So should i just wipe then restore?
I have a backup of the ROM before the kernel was flashed
Try fastboot erase cache that may reset things

Stuck on "Samsung Galaxy Note II screen after flashing latest TWRP zip via GooManager
Please help.
I updated TWRP recovery thru the Goomanager app and when i tried to reboot into recovery, it stays stuck on the boot screen.
Now when i try to boot it normally, it just stays stuck on the boot screen.
looks like i can get to download mode
this just happened to me also... but with the twrp app. i can get into download mode still, best bet is to probably flash back to stock and start over? i really dont want to, but i will if i have to.

I just flash a recovery to my phone using Odin. That works.
[Edit] Then delete Goomanager.
