first of all did you formated u'r partitions (factory reset) after flashing STOCK rom 2.3.5 Indian rom ?
now to your problem
flash ardatdat ICS kernel 4.2 as you are using ICS and then try the whole process again.
make sure after flashing stock Rom you should wipe cache, dalvik cache and factory restore.
I did same when I was Downgraded my SGR from ICS to GB

TO avoid this first you restore previous backup using CWM and then flash what ever you want using ODIN.
even Unbrick your Galaxy R. 2. Downgrade bootloader to v2.0 guide wont help you, I have followed it but no use I have successively flashed stock rom by using this method but still no luck..

I'd flashed GB(Indian) via ODIN being on ICS, there was no brick that time.

Now, my tab is on Paranoid ROM v2.5. Everything OK and also ICS ok. But when i tried to flash Honeycomb, my tab got bootloop. Than I flash ICS firmware, its become OK again.
That's why I'm asking are there any ways to downgrade or what are preventing the downgrade process.
Thanks in advance

Reboot Issue

Okay so I bought a Blaze a few days ago and I was messing around with it and I rooted it. When I rooted it I flashed a ROM and when the ROM booted up and got to the welcome screen it instantly turned rebooted itself, so I let it boot up again but it constantly reboots. Then I went back to a backup of the stock ROM and it still does the same thing. So I followed a guide that updated me to the ICS update in hopes of it fixing it but it still does the same thing! Now I don't know what to do with it. I was hoping maybe someone can help or if this has happened to anyone? Thanks in advance

Yes, the miui we have has a link to racing's blue lightning. I would try miui or another ROM again, but make sure to format /system along with wiping data, cache, and davlik. Or use black hole wipe. If you don't have anything important on the internal SD (or back it up) it might be worth it to format the emmc also.

[Q] How to install custom recovery after root?

first things first. I'm a noob. HAHA. but i'm willing to learn.
I recently rooted my phone by using chainfire's CF-AUTO-ROOT and it has stock recovery on it. Now, I want to install a custom recovery, specifically cwm recovery. How will be able to do this? Do I have to unroot then root again? a step by step info will be appreciated. thanks

First of all find a cwm file for ur device specific to the model u have on google. Flash it with Odin n u will have the recovery.

done finding cwm file that's compatible with my tab
Flashing? not really that well with android terms yet. after clicking "pda" then selecting the cwm file, should I click start? is that what you meant by flashing?
I appreciate your help.

Yeah first go to download mode holding power and volume down button and select the file in the PDA section n just click on start. And wait till pass. appears on the Odin screen. That's it.

I also would like to install cm 10.2. is it stable? I tried searching and I found pac rom and if i'm not mistaken 3 custom roms are installed into 1 rom.
I also would like to ask if it is really necessary to wipe all data before installing a new rom? and if so, would apps like titanium backup pro would be able to backup every single app or information that is in my tab/

Yeah u have to wipe cache and dalvik cache. 10.2 nighties r stable. No issues with me.

Your thread is changing direction but I can't resist commenting anyway. If your tablet is rooted, stock I don't think you will see big benefits to a custom ROM. For other tablets I use like the Kindle, Nook and N7 custom roms can make a huge difference. I'm running CM 10.? Or variants of that on those devices. My most used tablet is this 2.7 with stock ROM. If you must try another ROM, I'd suggest a sick based ROM that is deodexed with sound or visual enhancements. Also, changing to a noon, Touchwiz launcher will make big differences. GOOD LUCK!
P.S. quess what a ROMaholic might be.
