Kies won't work unless you are on stock firmware. You'll need to go back to stock firmware/kernel and then unroot.

Just unrooting won't since the issue. You'd have to refer to the stock firmware as well as kernel as told earlier.
you'd have a custom cf kernel with cwm, goto stock by flashing xxkpe starting from pit.
Press thanks if helped

Go for your region specific firmware. Then unroot. I think there are unroot instructions on cfroot thread.

first update ur kies then connect ur i9003 to pc in Samsung Kies mode.but before that u must be on ur region specific rom (i.e from region in which u live) and u should not be rooted.

Install your region csc if you are using multi csc
To check your csc type following code
*#272*[yourIMEI]#
Take backup before typing this code
This will erase all your data

Hi friends, has anybody tried rooting via Gingerbreak or ZergRush method? Is it safe? Why is this not working on SGR?

Samsung Galaxy R is not such a widely used phone (can't seem to figure out why), hence, the low compatibility rate.
and i guess there is no other way to Root or Unroot your phone (just yet) without flashing via Odin. However no one's stopping you from trying other methods... Just be on the safe side and keep backups of everything.
P.S. : You won't void your warranty if you flash Stock Firmware or the CWM via Odin... And anything done by the CWM doesn't increase your custom counter so you are good to go for the warranty...
Thank you mate..... But, If I flash CWM.... will I be able to get back to stock recovery.... If yes... Could you give me a link for such guide.....

You get back stock recovery when you re-flash your fw via odin. If you don't want to reflash the whole fw, just take a recovery.img (or recovery.bin - I don't remember) from .tar package and create a separate .tar file for it -> and flash via odin.

Just flash the Stock ROM. It will revert back everything.

[Q] Galaxy Ace Died after installing CWM with odin [please help]

Hi,
Please help me.
I tried to install CWM in my galaxy ace using "Odin".
I followed correct steps and odin showed "pass" at last.
but now my phone is not booting.
It will load upto "GALAXY Ace GT-S5830....." scree and nothing is happening after that.
I am not able to boot into recovery also now.
How I can recover my phone back?
Please help me.
Flash everything back to stock with Odin. You should make sure repartition is checked before flashing. When you try to flash cwm through Odin, redownload the files and try again.

Thanks for replying, but sorry to ask you one more doubt (may be too n00b qn.)
what do you mean by "flash everything"?
where I can get all those files for Ace?
Sorry took soo long to reply, was at work. Can you post a link to the method you used to flash cwm? Just want to make sure I point you to the correct firmware.
I have used the method at
acetips.wordpress.com/2011/10/01/install-cwm-ace-froyo
As it didn't worked, I used some other "ops" file, which brick my phone.
Can I use any samsung upgrade method ( as I have done earlier in my sonyericsson w8 using SEUS) ?
Or how can I fully flash and make it alive?
Try this...!
Hey no phone dies so easily, so, follow the process mentioned in the given link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
You know how to use odin get you ops file and further download the stock rom on
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
thanks friends.
But now I am not able to get into the recovery mode. will it get fixed after flashing the latest firmware?
What is the really working method to get CWM recovery for ACE?
It should work again if u flashed the stock because the stock recovery is included in the stock rom =)
please help me.
my phone is still not turning on, even after flashing stock firmware using odin.
How can i get it back?
my ace is now alive
Thank god!!! at last, my phone is alive.
Now dear friends, do u know any guaranteed to work -cwm flashing methods for ace?
Since you have flashed stock, are you able to get into stock recovery?

Before you flash CWM Recovery, you need to ROOT ur phone, download upd_1.zip file from the link that I provided in the previous post and flash it from Stock recovery.

I agree. Though not totally necessary, it does help. Also enable adb.

[Q] How to revert back to stock DDLF2 from rooted state?

Hi,
I have rooted DDLF2 (using CF-ROOT). Now that I no more need root (stopped using an app that needed root), I need to get back to stock DDLF2.
I have already unrooted it using recovery mode > unroot.zip method.
All I need is 100% samsung stock DDLF2 on the phone now, without the cf-kernel, cf-recovery and apps that the rooting process brought in.
Please advise...
Thanks
Dude thats simple...
Just flash ddlf2 using odin and u are good to go !!

take the CR-ROOT zp file, open up with winrar, replace the file with DDLF2 normalboot.img, than flash with odin PDA. you will get back the stock kernel or maybe you will have boot looping, if not bootlooping, reboot the phone once, than factory reset.
try at your own risk.

No u have to flash them via Odin only.

use the android development section and download the ddlf2 files then use odin to flash it

Maybe this happened because you didn't clean install so here are the steps:
Download XXKPE from here.
Flash XXKPE by following the XXKPE install instructions (the archive should contain odin3 v1.83 or v1.85 if not here is odin3 v1.85)
Download DDLF2 from here (DDMF1 is the latest value pack so it's smoother and with better battery life)
Install DDFL2 or DDMF1( recommended) by following the value pack instructions (use only odin3 v3.04)
that's it, enjoy your stock rom
if this helped you ...hit the thanks button pls

Im not really an expert but i'll try..
Can you enter odin mode? If yes, then you can flash your stock HC rom.. but guessing from your problem.. do you know how to use odin? If dont, try to do some research.. so heres my tip..
1. Find your stock HC firmware at www.samfirmware.com
2. Flash the firmware via odin..
3. (From experience) it will boot loop in the samsung animation
4. Dont worry.. enter recovery and do both wipes
5. Your boot will now proceed..
BEFORE I FORGET.. WIPING IS SAFE ON STOCK HC ROM.. DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM.. I REPEAT DO NOT WIPE FROM STOCK ICS ROM
PEOPLE OUT THERE.. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG..
IM JUST HELPING OUR FRIEND HERE..

Thanks for the answer but u didn't read what I wrote. I've downloaded one from sammobile but it contains only PDA file and after installation it gets stuck in SAMSUNG logo and doesn't turn on. Someone told me that I need a ROM with all PIT,PDA,CSC files to downgrade. And thats what Im asking for - for a rom with all the three files.

You're on 4.2.2 and want to revert to 4.1.2.When you flash the stock 4.1.2,go to stock recovery and make a factory reset and then wipe cache partition.
