I've recently flashed the devil kernel to mess around with the JB roms. I'm wanting to go back to ICS roms while the JB roms mature. I booted into devil recovery, wipe then installed the CWM zip but says "status 0" aborted.

I've tried doing it through ROM manager but gives me errors that way also.

What am I doing wrong??

Your mistake
1) Using Rom manager
2)Devil kernel uses both cwm and twrp recovery no need to "flash recovery" anyways.

If you can still get in to recover just flash what ever ICS rom you want. I'd advice full wipe and formating /system.

Same Problem, but i tried to flash with devil recovery. First, with cm10 it says installation aborted. Second time with cm9 he rebooted after 5 sec. and now it's in a boot loop.

What can I do to flash cm9 or cm10?

CM10 and devil kernel don't always get along. Something about the partition layout with devil. Anyway when you tried CM9 and it rebooted it just means it succeeded in flashing the kernel that CM9 comes with. Pull and replace the battery and 3 button combo back into recovery which will probably not be devil anymore. I don't think you have to but I typically go through the wipe procedure again and then you should be able to reflash CM9 without trouble.

I just flashed the cm9 and it didn't work, so I flashed cm10 and it worked apart from the google apps. It says Installation aborted. I tried to install it once again but it didn't help out.

What can I do now?
