I did all wipes except dalvik cache, because when I open that option the recovery goes back to the initial menu again.
and what about the backup thing?

you need to revert filesystem back to rfs(i am working for a convert tool but need some time,so you'd better follow the guide)

then Flash clockworkmod recovery→restore

It could be an incompatible kernel issue. Did you do a full wipe prior to flashing?
no i did not how do i do it is there a tutorial hon how to do it
In your recovery you would clear the cache and dalvik, do a factory reset as well and if available a system wipe. Then flash your ROM. You're S-OFF/ON? What does the development thread for your ROM say?

If you look at the download instructions on the OP of the ROM you will see that you need to use AmonRa recovery. Are you using Rom Manager? If so I suggest that you navigate to the bottom of the Rom Manager where it asks to install an alternate recovery and it will install AmonRa. Your next step would be to reboot into recovery again then select wipe and wipe everything 3 or 4 times then reflash the ROM.
Why do we have to wipe 3 or 4 times? Shouldn't a "wipe" wipe everything the first time?

just to make sure people dont complain about bugs if they didnt wipe a few times
Hey Ortizsal you may want to give this new recovery a shot... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339654 is AmonRA recovery that can also flash you're already saved CWM recoveries.

I am using stock rom 2.3.6 , stock kernel, rooted, RFS system.
I tried to flash rom eforeb, but after flashing, it was just rebooting so I flash back stock rom.

Install clockwocmod recovery 5.0.2.7 or 5.0.2.8
Wipe data factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Go to advance and wipe dalvi cache
Install zip from sdcard/chose zip from sdcard
Wait to install
And reboot.
And these belongs to general section not themes and apps

2.6.3.1 TWRP? Sounds like bad flashing. Have tried "Enable md5 verification" in TWRP while restoring? Was it a complete backup from TWRP? Kernel? Modem? Boot? System?
I have not tried that but now i flash again philz via odin and try again but seems like Bootloop ,again,
Yes, complete backup from twrp and also complete backup from philz.

Before you restore
Make sure to:
1. In Philz, Wipe Data / Factory Data Reset then Clean Install a new ROM
2. Wipe Data / Factory Data Reset then Wipe Data Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik's Cache
4. Flash TWRP
5. Restore BACKUP from TWRP
Try it!

You deleted your backup. Only thing you can really do is Odin back to stock and start over
