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

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.

When I try and boot into recovery, the phone simply reboots normally. I have tried reflashing and entering from adb, hboot, and rom manager with the same issue. I am running the latest ClockworkMod version, but NOT the latest update from HTC.
Can anyone help?

Have you tried holding down volume down button and power? If so id say try twrp or 4ext

Power down completely and take the battery out. Put it back in. While holding the volume down button down, press the power button to turn the phone on and boot into boot loader. Go down to the recovery option by using the volume keys to navigate and the power button to select. If it reboots to your recovery, awesome. That's how you should do it from now on.
If not, I suggest downloading and using 4EXT recovery. It costs money, but not that much, and if you know where to look on the internet you can find it for free. It is the best recovery out there and worth the money. Once installed there should be no problem rebooting into recovery while the phone is on and running or getting to it through the boot loader.
I've tried the power + volume down thing, and it didn't work. I will see if I can flash that recovery. Thanks.

The recovery is probably corrupted. I recommend you download 4ext. It's (In my honest opinion) a pretty good recovery

Fast boot off?
Under settings power.
Makes your phone sleep instead of turn off and can't access recovery.
fastboot reboot recovery or adb reboot recovery.

What Rom are you running? It sounds like you are stuck in a boot loop.

AOKP. I am stuck in a boot loop.. tried installing other ROMs but keep getting back in the boot loop into recovery.
I need some help ASAP!
Try pulling the battery for 10 minutes then make sure it's fully charged then go into recovery. and flash rom again
you might have to use odin and flash your phone back to stock.
None of my attempts to recover worked.. so i decided to ODIN to stock and back to AOKP. So far so good.. AOKP stock loaded, now i'm going to try and do a backup restore.
One thing i missed though --- i didn't install the atlas file with the stock ROM.. does it matter? what does it do anyway?
The reason you bootlooped was because you 3 fingered to recovery on an ics rom, which is a big no-no. Always boot to recovery via power menu. You should have re-partitioned using the pit file, but if everything works I wouldn't sweat it. If you start to get fc's then you know where you went wrong.

You're right.. that i did. My phone was blank and the power button just wouldn't boot the phone so i resulted to the force-recovery. Everything seems to be working, and i'm going to flash to milestone 6 while i'm at it. Anything i should watch out for other that FC's? i've actually read while doing research that Atlas may actually cause instabilities..

Thanks. Can you please tell me how to flash ROM using Odin please.
P.S.This was the only place to come to.
Ok everything is fine now.
Thanks for help.
I was simply updating my currently installed ROM and now I'm having an issue where I can't even flash a ROM.
whenever I select the ROM I want to flash, and then slide to "confirm" within TWRP 2.2.0 it just returns to the main menu in TWRP.
I noticed when I try to reboot the system into any mode, it tells me "E:system is not installed - preventing reboot!" in TWRP and just sits there. I have to hold vol down, vol up, and the power button to force a reboot and then it hangs on the white HTC logo screen. I pull the battery and then do vol down + power and I get back into the bootloader and can get into the recovery.
What is going on?
Please help, this is my main phone and currently am unable to figure it out.
Thanks
EDIT: I think I figured it out. I think it was a bad ROM.
I suggest changing your recovery to 4ext recovery

Yeah..... TWRP is a known problem..... I don't even believe there is a Team Win anymore.
Recently got a used Galaxy Note i717,went to install the ICS update but it would not update thriough KIES.Find out the previois owner had rooted it so I just install the stock ICS firmware manually following a guide I foiund.One problem,when I hold down POWER + VOL.UP I dont get tge screen that lets you wipe cache and what not.
Phone seems to be.working fine so far,been using it a couple days but what happens when I want to install a custom rom?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
If you put a custom ROM, it will wipe your device, which you have to, for installing a Custom ROM, and all custom ROMs are rooted btw. And yes I stay away from KIES...
You might of lost recovery when you install the ICS firmware. Here is the Super Thread with all the tools and ROMs.>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740367
If you are rooted, I would put the latest TWRP here>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647575
Then just find the custom ROM of your liking and download/install on your device, FTW.
The correct procedure to boot into Recovery is :
Hold power + volume up AND volume down until you feel the phone vibrate THEN release the power button (still holding volume up and down). The phone will then boot into Recovery. It should either be " Clockwork Mod Recovery " or "TWRP". There, you can wipe, install, backup, etc.

Use ODIN to flash the .tar file for the original ics 4.0.4 for at&t if you haven't already.. make sure "repartition" is off.
Heres the .zip:

Thank you,this kind of worked but what showed up was "Android System Recovery <3e>.
Is this Clockwork or TWRP?
The previous owner rooted it but I cant get hold of him to ask him exactly what he did.
Its neither, it's stock recovery.
You have to flash a file from your pc to the phone to replace stock recovery with a custom recovery like CWR or TWRP.

I see.I already have Odin installed and used it to flash the stock 4.04 since it would not update from KIES,will installing CWR or TWRP cause any issues?
No, just get in download mode and flash the TWRP odin file (I prefer TWRP over CWR). Reboot and you will go into recovery. Take a few minutes to make a backup of your rom.

It comes down to personal preference really ...
As CWM does a fine job as a recovery. But TWRP has many more features for the user, and seems to provide a much better user experience.
TWRP is clearly better supported, without the common outdated "status 7" errors often found in CWM.
Up to you obviously, but it's TWRP for me ....g
^^^^^ well said, Sarge. I was a CWR user for ten phones and tablets, but I tried TWRP on this phone. Its the bomb-diggity.
