Boot into recovery (If you don't know how to do this, you should be modding your phone at all, search if you don't), factory reset. If you can't get into recovery, get a stock rom for your country/carrier from Samfirmware (not 4.0.4 given I assume you'll be attempting to root your phone again), flash with Odin following instructions in stickied thread near top of Q&A titled 'Flash stock firmware'. Problems flashing with Odin ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General has all the info you need to get a successful flash & a clean slate.
From there, maybe re-read the instructions of what you were trying to do a bit better & have another go at it.

My brother just gave me a S II for mine to keep but it keeps stuck in the recovery logo for like 10 sec and then it shuts down i downloaded Kies and tried the recovery option but that won't work somebody suggestions?
Download stock rom for country/carrier (not Android 4.0.4) from Samfirmware, boot into download mode & flash following instructions in stickied thread near top of Q&A titled 'Flash stock firmware'.
Problems with flashing ? Find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General. Simply flashing stock should fix it, but it it still bootloops after flash, boot into recovery & do a factory reset.
Still bootlooping ? Download the 3 part firmware linked in Hopper's thread & flash that with Odin (this will wipe your phone).
If you try all that & still bootloops, post here again.

Please help me to recover my phone
Thank You
As of now i can only go to Download mode and i have Kies installed on my Win 8
Your phone isn't bricked if you have download mode (probably), chill out.
Download stock firmware for country/carrier (not 4.0.4) from Samfirmware, flash following instructions in thread stickied near top of Q&A title 'Flash stock firmware'. Problems with flash ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread has all the info you need to get a successful flash. If you do have problems with the flash, you need to go through the stuff in Hopper's thread methodically & as many times as you need to until you get a flash that works. You don't post Odin logs to this thread saying 'But it won't work !!!!'.

Thanks for ur response Mr.Bungle and thanks for pointing out Hoppers8's thread yeah i guess it inst bricked oops huh guess i need to patient these days before coming to a conclusion
well after a while i have installed philz rom, CWM & CM 11 moon shot all went fine but every time the system reboots before CM screen shows up the yellow warning is displayed and after booting in to CM11 i checked there is only 790 MB of RAM available to verify this i checked in to apps manager it says 310 Used & 483 Free when it was in JB 4.1.2 stock rom all the 1 GB was displayed with 785 something MB available
How can i reclaim the RAM, will using anyother rom will solve the issue
guys my samsung sgs2 wont boot up stuck on the sII logo screen and shuts down but working on recovery mode and i also tried restoring my back up but still the same happens.
my s2 is rooted and running beanstalk 4.4.2
Recovery mode = factory reset. If that doesn't work, stock rom from Samfirmware, flash with Odin. Problems with Odin flash ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General has all the info you need to get a successful flash (you may need to do a factory reset as well after the Odin flash if you end up doing this). Once you've done that, re-root your phone & try restoring your nandroid, or reinstall custom rom/kernel & start from scratch.

already factory reset and tried flashing my custom rom again but still that happens.
can you give me the link where to download the stock rom? but i dont know my baseband version.
Samfirmware (Google it). You don't need to know whatever baseband you have (it's irrelevant anyway), download any stock rom for your carrier/country (not 4.0.4) given you'll be going back to a custom rom anyway.

my s2 was bought in las palmas spain. and im on philippines now.
will i download those 4.1.2 version??
'download any stock rom for your carrier/country (not 4.0.4) given you'll be going back to a custom rom anyway'.
Won't be repeating myself in this thread again. You should already know this stuff if you're modding your phone in any way.
I knew I'll break it one day so no big surprise here.
Let me start from the beginning. I was testing a new ROM (C-ROM to be exact) but i didn't like it's using TWRP (I hate this thing, i'm used to CWM), so I tried installing CWM by using ROM Manager so I can restore from my Nandroid backup. Despite the "success" message of ROM Manager - the phone kept booting into TWRP recovery so i googled a "flashable cwm zip" and found this: CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5 for Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 ZIP
I flashed the above zip using TWRP (success message followed) but when i rebooted the phone - NOTHING came up. I thought myself i bricked it but i managed to go to download mode.
Where do i go from here? I guess i'll have to use PC Odin from here but i don't know what to do exactly (i'm not power user).
C'mon...You don't know how to flash a rom with Odin ? Not like it's a great secret, you don't need to be a 'power user', this info is easily found by searching (or even looking in the thread stickied near the top of Q&A titled 'Flash stock firmware').
Get a stock rom from Samfirmware, flash it with instructions in that thread. Problems with Odin flash ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General has all the info you need to get a successful flash.
Edit - Also, it was Rom Manager that broke your recovery. Don't use it. Yes, you may have been using it for a long time without problems, but that changed today, didn't it ? Eventually what happened to you will happen to everyone who uses Rom Manager on the I9100. It's unnecessary.

1) Flash stock rom using 'ODIN'
2) Search for 'Philz' kernel thread and fallow instruction there to 'Root' your 'Stock Rom'.
3) then u can try its recovery to restore the 'Nand bkp' .
4) if the Bkp rom is KK then flash a KK compatible kernel and then try restoring the Nand bkp.

I'll try - thank you!
I am trying to recover an Samsung Galaxy S II, when I got it was in a stuck in a bootloop, I tried to flash a stock ROM on it, it was still stuck in a bootloop. I flashed a new kernel on it to see if it was doing something.
It did not work and now I flashed the CM kernel on it but I can't access the recovery mode anymore...
I would like to know what should I try to do...
Thank you in advance!
Have you done a factory reset yet ? If not, do one.
If that doesn't work, find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General, download the 3 part firmware linked in that thread, flash with Odin/in DL mode (any problems with Odin flash; refer to that thread & go through troubleshooting steps methodically until you get a successful flash) - this will wipe your phone, hopefully removing whatever remnants of what you had on the phone previously that's causing your bootloop.
From there, re-root your phone & restore nandroid or reinstall custom rom/kernel.

I installed the 3 part firmware, and it is still bootlooping... And still can't access recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power)
I can only access the ODIN mode
