Let me guess: no backup or anything?

if you have back up try restoring it from recovery...if you dont then reinstall the rom again from recovery.(wipe cashe data..system) should work just fine...at least is what i did in my nexus s..when i did this mistake..

Are your recovery and rom stock or custom? Cyanogenmod, CWM recovery etc...
If I were you, I would install CWM recovery for your phone and then install some custom rom, they are just awesome

Thx
Thank you all!!!

same problem
i have the same problem my phone just gets stuck with the google screen, but I already had cwm recovery installed but when I try to install cm9 or even cm7 its says that it cant open the package and the installation gets aborted. should Itry using the wug toolkit to flash the zips. and am i supposed to install sabra root toolkit on my phone...??? thanks.

After installing, do this then you're all set:
1. Click "Full Driver Installation Guide - Automatic + Manual" then follow the instructions carefully.
2. In step 2, choose and click "PdaNet Drivers"
3. Follow all instructions, then click "Full Driver Test", you'll see a success message if you did everything right.
4. Go back to main program window, then click "Unlock". Make sure to backup your device because this will wipe everything in it.
5. Tick the "Custom Recovery" box under Root menu then click "Root".
6. Done. Stand up and shout "YEAAAA!!!"

If you're gonna stick to Stock 4.1.2 ROM, i recommend using either of these two:
_thalamus kernel: LINK (Reuploaded because thalamus removed it)
FloHimself Stock kernel: LINK (This has a few more features but still closer to stock. Can be activated via NSTools)

tried both of them same result. wasnt able to install crespo kernel but was able to install the other one. i also tried to install matr1x.v24 but no use. also i wasnt able to install cm9 and cm7 earlier when everything was fine. dont know why
should i try and unroot the phone with wug toolkit using the soft bricked option. maybe that might help, and then install the kernels.:fingers-crossed:

If you can still boot to recovery you can easily fix this.
Download any ROM
Reboot to recovery
In mount:
-format system
-format data
-format cache
-mount usb
Copy your ROM to your phone.
Safely dismount USB on your computer
Unmount USB
Flash the ROM you downloaded
Reboot
Enjoy.
Edit: actually, you need a kernel with support for stock, which i provide in my marmite thread.

I guess it coz of the wrong kernel for your current ROM. Try to flash kernel that's recommended for your current ROM. You can find that kernel inside the zip file. Good luck.

But there is one weird thing in bootloader. When I boot to bootloader it shows: SD Checking...No image! (and some letters .img). This shows about 7 times and then it shows selection screen (fastboot/recovery/factory reset/simlock)
Second weird thing is that I have radio 1.10.80.14M3 (I'm from WestEurope), but in RUU isn't the same radio :/
(These things were there before I installed new recovery/stock ROM)
Now, I tried to install the stock rom by immortal yash and it works! So thank you for wasting a time with me

[Q] (Q) ¿Error al entrar en CWM?

Hello friends, I am newbie in android something I wanted to install CWM 6.0.4.5 of this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560928 and everything goes perfectly, but when squeezed keys + volume, power and home the ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY 3E shows me instead of CWM 6.0.4.5 and enter CWM have to do to step 4 with odin and remove the battery etc. .. and I can get! but only this time, after I turn it and attempt to re-enter but it appears the android system recovery 3e. Please help, I do not want this whole process to remove the battery to get. Thank you!
hi @matutecarp99
you have to flash this file called cwm-permanentor.zip with CWM to prevent the Stock ROM to flash it's own recovery over CWM
Warning : flashing cwm-permanentor.zip makes your device status custom.
you can find cwm-permanentor.zip here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303395
find it in section B)Rooting it's one of those 2 links.
there is other solutions for this, mentioned in tutorial in your link, but this method i said worked for me.

It's because the firmware overwrite cwm with stock recovery, you must root it or directly flash custom ROM. Or use the trick from the first replier.

you can see back up and restore in CWM.
actually backup is not necessary i suggested it because it's good to have a back up of stock rom, so whenever anything goes wrong you can restore your phone as it was.
