Defy not booting after installing CM9

Hi! I just changed my rom from MIUI to CM9(ICS, 4.0.3) but after i install using recovery mod it stays on the booting screens and doesn't want to start normally. I noticed that clockwork mod has dissapeared and it will only show the "stock" recovery. Is there any chance to make my current rom work? or can I install another rom using the stock recovery?
Please help
Looks like i managed to make the phone work by full wiping from custom recovery. I'll definitely go back to CM 7.1...

i think u'll need to flash the cm9 kernel for CM9 work. otherwise flash the cm9 builds from Epsylon or Quarx - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432100

[Q] Installing a kernel and a custom ROM?

I want to install Elite Kernel while running Kaos Droid. If It crashes or gets stuck in a boot loop, could I just restore my device from a saved backup?

Help!!

hello, I had a version of cm10 installed on rom slot 1 of safestrap, and then I unlocked my boot loader, and installed TWRP recovery, I tried restoring the backup of cm10 I had made on Safestrap, and now I'm in a bootloop and I can't access TWRP recovery. I would really appreciate some help.
EDIT: Never Mind I found a way to go into recovery and was able to restore the backup of my stock rom.

[Q] How to restore downloaded apps from back on different ROM

Hi Guys,
Just a quick question from a rookie.
I like changing custom rom since I rooted my LG G2 about a month ago and experimenting some custom roms on my LG G2 D802.
I have managed to successfully flashed few custom rom such, Paranoid Android, ClaudyFlex 2.4, Liquid Smooth and CyanogenMod. I always do backup on TWRP everytime I have fully restore all my app on each ROM i'm using. My question is, is it possible to restore only the apps that I have previously downloaded via TWRP? as I hate re-downloading again all the apps via wifi that sometimes take a very long time to fully restore from PlayStore.
Let say I'm now using CyanogenMod 11 with TWRP 2.7 recovery installed. I want to change my ROM to Pardus Classic HD ROM. Should I just simply restore from my back up (Pardus Classic HD ROM+Gapps+all downloded apps on .zip file) that I have done previously using TWRP recovery or should I clean wipe and install the Pardus ROM first, then do a restore of backup from TWRP backup folder after the Pardus HD ROM has been fully installed on my device.
Sorry for a rookie question... just enjoy the beauty of rooting devices and so keen to experimenting here and there...
Regards,

I have discovered that I need it too because my phone is loked and, to enter my carrier unlock code, i need to restore my backup made with CWM.
Looking for the same.
Yesterday i have installed 2ndInit to get back CWM recovery and restore my original stock ROM image.
Android can not complete the full boot, showing the intro of my carrier during a hour while loading Android.
Reinstalled TWRP and recovered my CM11 backup.
I will try again and, if not suceded, i will flash my carrier SBF to unlock my phone.
I will inform any news about CWM restore stock ROM.

I think this happens because the roms use different file systems
Try the Aroma Wiper to change the file system:

I'll try this, but now i'm without time, then i report if it work.
I got my phone working.
