I have CWM installed. And oh! I am still on stock a200 kernel. Can anyone help me? Thanks

so the story goes like that.
few days ago (before ICS officialy came from asus) i've tried just for fun Paul's ICS port. i really dont see myself as a noob, so please treat my question as it is.
at first i've tried to flash it from cwm without wiping and stuff- got stuck at boot.
so i did i full wipe with "Android revolution super wipe".
and flashed ics port again- now with success.
after couple of days decided to go back to HC Revolver. so just went again to CWM and full wiped again, and flashed revolver 3.11.
then i started to get the bad news. it seems nothing can be flashed anymore from the recovery. when i flash a rom it finishing it too fast and when i reboot it just bootlooping on the splash screen. tried everything, including removing the cwm recovery and installing it again.
the one and only thing that worked is nvflashing a prime rom. but it still didnt fix the recovery problem.
i tried to flash also back HC kernel with no luck.
what did go wrong?!
please help me

You need to flash the stock kernel again, Paul's ICS kernel is still there, and that won't work. CWM does not flash the kernel when flashing a ROM unless the kernel is included with the ROM (like Paul's). Download Roach2010's kernel and CWM flash it, then reboot and see if that fixes it. Then, if you want to go to stock, use revolver parts to download the stock Asus kernel and return to stock.

My Iconia has CWM installed. I used it a while ago to install the leaked ICS rom. I tried to install the most recent (official) ICS rom. Now my Iconia will not boot past the Iconia logo. I've loaded CWM and formatted everything and reinstalled the official rom. No go.
I figure at this point I have to use nvflash to install a new recovery image and rom. Could somebody tell me how to do that and what files to get?
Thanks
Before doing anything else have you tried wiping cache and data? Has worked for me when a rom wont boot. Have you still got cwm can you access it? If no cwm you can accomplish this by holding power and volume up then toggle the rotation lock.
Yes, I have access to CWM. I have tried wiping everything. I even successfully installed a new rom. The device still will not boot past the Acer logo.
I booted wit hte method you described. Two messages appeared in quick succession, "Clearing data..." and "Clearing cache". After the cache message, the device just sits there doing nothing at all.
Previously I had the data partition encrypted. Could that be causing trouble?
did you install an ICS bootloader?
I'm not sure. That is why I created this thread. I'm looking to get the recovery and OS image necessary to get this device working again.
As the previous poster noted, have you switched to the ICS bootloader? When I flashed my A500 with an ICS rom it too got stuck in a bootloop. I then discovered that I actually had to flash the ICS bootloader berfore installing the new rom.

You can't install official ROM with CWM. You need Acer recovery! This issue has been answered several times. Use search button!!!
Hello!
I was about to unroot and get back to stock with my A500 so I flashed a stock ROM via CWM to get a ota-update. Before i had a custom ICS ROM installed and now I installed a HC stock ROM. The problem is that i forgot to go through the wipe menu in CWM before the flash and now when I start up my tablet I first see the ACER logo as usual, then a android text-logo which the tablet is stuck at. I've waited 20 minutes and is still shows the same thing. The logo has an animation which i still can see. I've tried to restart the tablet and get into CWM again without succes.
What should I do?

I believe you have to have the HC bootloader. Now you have HC with ICS bootloader.
Please help me i am in boot menu of my Acer A500 and i don't know what can i do my Acer whene i push power bouton i am blocked in this meni :
Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V8
Booting primary kernel image
please help me to complet installing JB rom
Same issue here...Just tried flashing the new kernal in Goo Manager as well as a new ICS build within TWRP, and I'm hung at the same screen.
Time to do some homework. Any help is appreciated.
OK, got this working. Basically, it all boiled down to a bootloader issue. I was using an older bootloader with a JB ROM. Bad idea! I was able to get into recovery by doing a vol down+pwr to boot it up, then selected an older ROM from my SD card to get it back up and working.
I then poked around for updated bootloaders, and snagged v8 ICS bootloader.
I applied that guy, wiped the device, installed CM10, gapps for ICS and everything worked.
Hi,
Guys I need your help on this one.
I sold my A500 almost a year ago to a friend of mine. At that time I flashed it with a HC ROM and Recovery 1.3.4.
Last week the new owner of the tabled asked me for help updating the ROM to JB. Since now I use a Samsung Galaxy I completely forgot on the correct procedures to update the Acer A500. I simply downloaded a 4.2.2 Rom and tried to flash it on recovery mode.
After that I'm stuck with an endless loop. The tabled boots, pass the Acer logo, shows the ROM logo screen and than boot again.
Since I can still acess the recovery screen (it still shows 1.3.4 recovery) I tried flashing other ROMs with no sucess. Every room that uses the Aurora installer freezes as soons as Aurora Installer message shows on the screen. So I wasn`t able to flash a new Rom or a new Recovery (since all the Roms and recovery that I have found uses the Autora installer).
I also tried to install an older room (Tried the Lightspeed 2.1 ROM) and although I was able to flash it and reboot from recovery, it stops on the boot screen after that (I waited for 4 hours).
Can you guys help me with this one? Also, do you guys know if I can install a new Recovery using Odin?
Thanks
Anyone?
Maybe you should try flashing stock rom. Download 》rename it to update.zip》install from sd card or use EUU roms.
