Almost every kernel dev provides a .tar version of his kernel for initial rooting / custom recovery install.
Per example apolo, gustavo and dorimanx.
Grab one of these, flash trough Odin and start from there.
Hint, you need at least CWM 6.0.45 for installing cm11.

Good! Now please add [SOLVED] in your title and spell Status right please
Heyyy, so i just came back to android and felt like flashing some kitkat roms so as to enjoy those cool features kitkat offers..i'm currently running stock 4.1.2 JB.
as far as im concerned, first i should flash a rooted+cwm kernel through odin (which i flashed latest siyah for JB)... that went smooth and i got rooted and got cwm, problem is when i want to actually install any rom... I continually get "installation aborted" and the only way to make my phone usable again is to flash a stock firmware through odin.
any ideas ? thanks !
PD: I tried installing the "kitkat cwm compatible" thingy both through odin and through cwm, it did flash correctly, but phone fails to boot. if you dont get this last thing.. its this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546597
hope anyone out there can give me a hand since im tired of running stock :'(
check the OP again
have you read the OP before flashing KK custom rom. maybe u miss some part to flash it.
You can flash philz kernel on to of your stock JB to get root and recovery (no need to use Odin, you can flash through standard recovery). Then do a backup of your rom and after that flash a cwm-recovery >6.0.4.x (this is needed to be able to install s KitKat ROM). Boot directly after flashing into that recovery, wipe system and data and install KitKat.

I've got more information there.
Do you know what firmware you installed?
Or you can flash dorimanx kernel through Odin. It also gives you root access. Download this:
Kernel_Dorimanx-V8.43-[12-21]-[24-10]-TAR-FOR-ODIN.tar
If you don't know how to flash it through Odin, look in the op of the dorimanx kernel thread. Just above the download links it's explained.
After that follow the instructions from AndDiSa by flashing a kitkat compatible cwm etc.

Next time read before doing things!
Before flashing a kitkat rom you had to flash a kitkat compatible cwm.
Search for this and flash it. After that reboot into recovery and flash beanstalk.
And next time, please read.

Dorimanx kernels can't flash kitkat roms without changing the updater-script. If you don't know how you can change the updater-script, flash the kitkat compatible CWM before flashing beanstalk.

Root it first with dorimanx or philz kernel.
I think you want carbon android 4.4.x version? If you flashed a dorimanx kernel, flash a kitkat compatible CWM
Follow installation steps on the carbon thread.

Don't know what version you flashed and what rom Android version you're now running. But I believe the v8 tar version is the one for Android 4.1.2.
Just flash carbon.
You did make a backup?

Read the threads of your rom and the kernel you want. Find out what Android and Mali version your rom is using and find the kernel that you need. If you don't know what your doing, stick to the kernel that comes with the rom.
Why do you want to unroot it? Of you want an other custom rom you need to root it again. You can't root it for some apps and unroot it for the other.

Well, Error 7 is basicly to protect you from flshing the wrong software (for ex. for wrong phone model), have you tried different cm based ROMs (cyanogen mod 14 by modpunk) if you cant install them either it's something wrong with your recovery. If you haven't try it yet, you may flash it again by odin.

I meant to flash twrp in odin again, if this won't help you might try flashing official firmware and then custom recovery again.
