Easiest method would be to dirty flash whatever rom you're running.
Edit: also, only need power + volume down to boot into bootloader. Holding the power button for 10 seconds will hard reboot your phone.
Truth be told, I just hold power for 10 seconds, then just hold volume down before it gets to the Google logo.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40859201 motley has a stock kernel and components link in the OP. Don't forget to thank him if it helps.
That's for 4.2.2, so if you're on 4.3 it may not help. Failing that, try reflashing Franco's kernel?

How are you getting to it? 3 fingers is not the way to go. Power button-reboot-recovery-cwm-restore. Works for me.

[Q] Stuck at JB animation after updating Franco's kernel

Hi folks,
I flashed a stock Google 4.2 rom (nakasi-jop40c-factory-6aabb391.tar) using TWRM which worked flawlessly. I then downloaded Franco's kernel updater and followed the instructions which told me my device was supported. I then flashed his r25 (I think) and since then when I boot up the tablet gets past the Google splash screen but stalls on the colourful X for ever.
When I boot into recovery I get the android bot on its back with the red cross. I can then hold Power and Vol up to reset to factory with no success and I've also tried sideloading a stock rom but that fails as well.
Any help would be much appreciated
Cheers
Seamus
You must use r30 it's for 4.2

Hi Nico,
Thanks for the reply. I've just downloaded Franco's app again from the Play Store and when I go to the download page in the app it tells me that the latest stable version is still r25. Where do I get hold of the r30 you mention?
Cheers

[HELP] It wont boot into a recovery

Hey there how are you, I recently bought a I9505 version Galaxy s4 and have rooted it.
I just flashed a custom recovery through odin... apparently.... But I cannot actually boot into a recovery? Is there something wrong?
Also when I try some blue writing comes up..... Thanks
When you have powered off your phone, hold in the power button + home button + volume up button until you see the blue text in the top right corner that says 'booting recovery...' then let go of all the buttons and it should boot into your recovery. I remember when I first got the device I kept holding in the buttons for either too long or too little (I was used to the Galaxy S2). Hope this helps.

I had a similar problem, sofbrick, could not get into recovery, i need to flash a stock Rom to recover your recovery, after that install a custom recovery again if you want..attention not to use the last MH8, advise one stock rom before.
So I got it working thanks guys also ive flashed a rom but its stuck at the google dota... the 4 coloured ones and it just keeps doing that.... for like 15 mins.. whats going on?

If you want to try aosp then you must flash an aosp kernel... I guess it will be included in the rom zip... But good luck with it

[Q] Help - Bad Kernel

So I could not get the phone to root (super user binary issue) and I installed that SetUID kernal and now my phone will not boot. Can someone please guide me to a fix. Thanks
Set uid kernel? What are you talking about? The sprint gs4 doesn't gave a kernel like that.

Crap I just realized that it is a T-mobile thing. Am I completely screwed now?...should have following my rule and read twice downloaded once.
If you did flash a kernel with that name, it would explain your boot problems.
Flash one for the Sprint S4 and all will be good.

Any of the appropriate kernels from the original development section will get you up and running. You'll just have to pick one for whatever rom you were one (4.3, 4.4, tw, aosp, etc)

How do I get into stock recovery? Tried up, mid, power. Just flashes the galaxy screen and turns off.
Ok so found out that I can get into recov with power plugged in. So battery is low. But now did fact reset and still galaxy screen the now just blue led black screen
ok so I am back running. installed mk2_stock02 from Dev page. Was able to get CWM booting and loaded the ROM from there. My next question, probably has been answered but this is where my problem started before. When I go to open the SuperSU I get an error saying there is no SU Binary installed....and then closes.
Install super su from market

Stock 4.4.2 kernel

Hello everyone! Could anyone help me out and share a stock d802 int 4.4.2 kernel? (flashable .zip maybe?)
Been using this phone for 5 months already and yesterday I decided to try out autorec recovery and dorimanx kernel. Regret doing that. Performance seems to be lower, the same goes with battery life.
Is there even a way of getting back to stock without full wipe?
Sorry if I haven't done enough searching, but I'm on phone and searching this way is a pain in the ...

I am not completely sure, but doesn't Autorec install the stock kernel (patched only for loki etc).
Thread title asks just for the Stock Kernel and since you have already a custom recovery , you would need a patched kernel. Doesnt have to be Dorimax.
Or really completely stock with everything and unroot?
Oh, I'm sorry. I meant I want things to go back the way they were - stock 4.4.2, stock kernel, no custom recovery. Is it even possible without a complete reinstall and wipe?

when installing a new kernel you should never judge by one day, you should always allow 2-3 days for everything to fall in place, saying the above is like installing a new rom and if in few hours its draining fast you blame the rom but in reality you didn't give things a chance to fall in place and run as they are supposed to

only way to go back to complete stock without consequences is by using download mode

So you mean to say It's ok that it takes like 4 sec to show mobile data settings (long press on mobile data icon)? That's an example. And also I don't know much about benchmarks but the I/O score in quadrant went down to 5200ish.

Benchmarks don't matter and it doesn't take 4 seconds for me.

It does take for me, it wasn't like that with stock so I want to go back to stock.
Im not blaming the kernel dorimanx made, maybe I just need a wipe or something, but I can't afford to do a full wipe.

well naturally for flashing a kernel you wipe dalvik/cache and I mentioned earlier if you want to go back to stock you would need to use back to stock guide which will erase everything on your phone so backup anything important
So I guess there is no way of restoring kernel and recovery without wipe?
