Sorry bro but i think yes, i had the same issue, i tried to get into CWM after installing "stable" version,If your CMW is gone after installing ISC version then probably same issue, CWM is affected by that file thats why OP removed it, but for now you have Odin back to stock sorry.
Hope thats helpful.

Flash the cwm community kernal and do 3 button restart. You will get it back.
Flash with sgs kernal flasher app. and shut down, reboot woth 3 button. Wala!

Possible brick?

So I recently made the move from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 and was working great no problems. I want to move to 4.1.1, so I checked my cwm version which is 6.0.1.0. That's all I did in cwm and then clicked reboot now. I got the Samsung logo then cm9 but directly after it bought me back to the home screen of cwm. What should I do??
Cwm is not distorted in anyway... just can't reboot. I'm a heavy texter/caller and would like his to be fixed ASAP!

Try to do the 3 button combo to enter recovery, then reboot.
If not, flash the ics kernel with heimdall or odin, or back to stock would be your last resort.

Follow above step and you will be fine...
I'm running cyanogen mod 9 (the zip file reads "cm-9-20120317-UNOFFICAL-infuse4g.zip") the cwm is v 6.0.1.0 I'm running ICS... the exact build from that video I shared with you just the other day... I have tried rebooting from cwm after it return s there.... and tried a battery pull and normally starting. Still brings me to cwm screen. (This was just a copy of a message)
That's a little more detail of exactly what I've tried. I did do clear everything again and try reinstall. No good.
I'm not sure how to go back to stock exactly.. since I'm now on 4.0.4, would stock be ICS now? If a link could be provided that would truly help!

Stock would be only froyo or GB since those are the only official versions by at&t.

The file you linked is a cm9 build.
Use the heimdall one-click ics recovery, linked in the 3rd post of the guide.
Or if you prefer Odin, there is also one for that there.

soft bricked? please help

hey guys the other day i was on the nov 12th nightly of aokp. really liked it but it kept vibrating randomly so i reverted back to my rom of slimbean with the instagatorX kernel. the battery life was terrible so today i decided to go to the nov 15th nightly of aokp. and i did a full wipe and flashed the rom and gapps. and then proceeded to reboot. it boots by displaying samsung on the screen then nothing. so i was going to just go back to the recovery and i use TWRP btw. and it wont boot into recovery. the only thing the phone will do is it will display the charging animation when i plug the phone in but only if the phone is off. and i can also go into odin mode. but thats it. is there anyway to save my phone except reverting back to stock? any help is greatly appreciated.
Why not revert to stock!! Then work your way back! Nice way to spend the evening!

Can you flash a new recovery with Odin? Then maybe access that one to restore to a working ROM.

Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich Unlocked and Rooted

Hi. I thank you in advance for pointers and direction. I have searched around, but want to make sure I am doing the right thing.
I have an Infuse and it is unlocked. It is running with a T-Mobile SIM card.
I downloaded Odin 3 v1.7. I successfully flashed from 2.2.1 (Froyo) to 2.3.6 Gingerbread by using this ROM/Root that I found on another thread here:
************ OPTION C *************
I997UCLB3-CWM-root-deodex-extras.rar
Features in this version
- Entropy's Daily Driver kernel
- Red CWM recovery
- Rooted
- Deodexed
- Zipaligned
- Busybox
- AT&T and other bloatware removed
- Scrolling wallpaper fix
- CRT off animation
- 8 lock screens
- Extended power menu
- Accurate battery mod
The phone is working properly on the new firmware.
I would like to jump up one more firmware to Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean. Every method I can find seems to include root, and I am already rooted. That happened when I ran "option C" from above.
What is my next step? Can I simply flash a Gingerbread ROM through Odin (after, of course, putting the Infuse in "download" mode)?
You need to flash a (ics) rom from the CWM RECOVERY of the phone not using odin and then you can flash a jellybean 4.xx rom.

Cool. Thank you! I am not sure how to do either of those things. At least now I have some research to do.

My wife finally allowed me to upgrade her phone.. So I've recently just tried out these steps it's amazing to me that jelly bean 4.2.2 cm10.1 runs better than stock gingerbread. Only down side is no mhl.
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Ok, I did a little research and I am more clear on the process - (download rom, put it on sd card, flash it using Clockword Mod while in recovery mode). I do have a question. Does it matter what version of CWM that is on my phone?

When I flashed cwm it was red recovery, which is what you stated you had in the first post by choosing option c
You'll have to flash ICS before flashing jelly Bean when you flash ICS it'll change the cwm to a more current one.

one last check ...
Let me check one last time before I do something stupid:
I have a rooted and unlocked (T-mobile service) Infuse. I had stock Froyo 2.2.1. I used Option C from a thread here that rooted it and gave me RED recovery. I used Odin and flashed the "extras" package.
I currently have build #: Gingerbread.UCLB3, kernal version: 2.6.25.7-I997ruxkg3-cl366622, firmware 2.3.6.
I would like to experiment with flashing up to ICS, maybe Jelly Bean.
My understanding is that I can simply drop a ICS rom onto my SD card and flash it from red recovery. Then I do do the same process to move to Jelly Bean.
Am I correct? Am I missing anything? Thank you ALL soooo much for guidance. I am learning and will pass it on!

Its really hard to screw things with this phone specialy.....
Yeah.....its typed on Note 3.
Ok, I followed the directions provided and flashed Infinitum ICS. All works well with the rom. Recovery is distorted. I see directions which include Heimdall to correct the recovery.
Does that process just correct the recovery or does it revert me back to something other than Infinitum Rom? if so, can I repeat the process to get the rom back?
My next step will them be to move to jelly bean and be happily ever after.

When you update your phone you don't flash the gingerbread bootloaders right, you only need to flash the gingerbread bootloaders and that will fix the problem.

Ok, I blew it. Flashed back to Gingerbread.UCLB3, firmware 2.3.6 with Heimdall. Recovery is still totally distorted/unreadable.
Next move? I assume I should flash a Gingerbread bootloader. Where would I find the right one? I don't want to screw this up. Then I can move to ICS and then JB with no issues, right?

Hey! It looks like I corrected the issue before you messaged back. I ran Heimdall again. Thought I had blown it. Screen went all speckled red yellow and blue on me. It was kinda pretty. I booted in download mode and it was speckled, too. I followed the steps to download mode even thought I could not see the screen. I flashed through Heimdall again, it ran properly, and then booted into download mode and ran with "bootloaders" checked. It seems all is well. Recovery mode is working (no distortion) and is blue (Android system recovery 3e).
Can I follow the steps I took to go to ICS and then JB (if I decide to go to JB) now with no other issues?
