possible you flashed gb root kernel...
rooting jb is simplier, just flash Root.zip from this thread
but, you cant do it now because you have wrong kernel on your phone.
have you tried redownloading usb drivers to get your phone recognized by odin.
because if you connect phone to odin simply flash new fw over...

I think you need to install mono first as you are on Mac.
http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html
---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------
Here we go,follow the steps :
>Enable USB debugging on your phone and connect it to your mac
>Download SuperOneClickv1.6.5-ShortFuse from here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
>Download "3e_recovery_installer.zip" and "update.zip (1.34 mb)" from here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
>Run install.bat from 3e_recovery_installer folder.
>Put update.zip (1.34 mb) in your internal sdcard and boot under recovery.
>Select reinstall package option. Update.zip will get installed and phone will reboot.
>Get the actual CWM recovery update.zip (1.72 mb).You can get this using ROM manager.
>Put this update.zip (1.72 mb) in your internal sdcard and boot under recovery. >Select reinstall package option. Update.zip will get installed and phone will reboot and will be back in recovery mode.
>Select reinstall package again you now have CWM recovery.

how did you get in this trouble what is your firmware?
now it seems you don't have 3e problem but 3-buttons problem read above link search in page for "3-button"
try to enter recovery by adb tool
Code:
adb reboot recovery
after this quickly remove usb cable from phone
If you tray to install custom ROM
1. Download from market "ROM Manager"
2. Install "ClockworkMod Recovery" or "AmonRa" (have it into ROM Manager)
3. Go to XDA Search and find your phone into forum and find good custom ROM.
4. Download it and paste it to SD card of your phone
5. Power Off phone and press "Home" button + "Power" button to get into Recovery mod and from them you will be ably to install new ROMs ;]
Thanks
I did.
At this point I just want the phone back to ANDROID Ginergerbread OS and operational.

well read this thread as I said i.e. read post #3 and follow instruction this will modify/ patch your recovery so you can access it but you need a Windows machine also you can try to flash back to 2.1 stock rom and follow instructions on post #1 you need a Windows machine...also if you need stock roms for your phone look at
this thread or just enter sammobile and enter "897" as search string you get stock 2.1 rom (you need subscription to download)

As you are getting Galaxy Gio splash screen, its just a soft brick. Make sure you've installed Samsung Kies and make sure its not running in background (Check the Taskbar systray) while you run Odin. Download the firmware from sammobile.com and install as mentioned in Tutorial (You may find it in the Galaxy Gio section)
Dont use the pit its from later galaxy models
Make sure u flash galaxy gio FW and look for the guides in thr GIO section

In addition, I need the 2.3.6 Gingerbread NZ stock rom from 2degrees, yet I cannot find it on any of the sites I visit. I can get into download mode but not recovery... can anyone help?

No... There was no water damage, only 1 drop 2 years ago which the phone survived. It was from knee height. I flashed the S5660KKT3 baseband through Odin. Is it the right one? Also, my phone was broken and I got it repaired. when it came back the signal was 5 bars, when I put my SIM card in, but when I installed maclaw's cm9 it was poor. Reboots seem to fix the problem.
Hi guys. I've got a problem..... I tried flashing CWM 6.0.3.4 to my Wonder, I open Odin, I choose files (Ancora.ops and CWM), Odin recognises my phone, but when I press "Start", the program gets stuck at "<1> setup connection..."
I tried changing USB cable, port, even Odin (I tried 4.43 - 4.38 and 3.98), but nothing has changed..... I am running Windows XP, and I have installed only Samsung USB Drivers, without Kies. But, as said before, Odin recognises my Wonder..... even tried on another XP computer, and have the same result...... please help me

Bro, you have to root it first, only then you should flash CWM. Because you can't root using cwm. Anyway, root first then flash via terminal emulator. Should work.

1. Power phone off.
2. Press Volume down+Home+Power key to enter download mode.
3. Press volume up when prompted.
4. Make sure you have the drivers all installed and connect the phone to pc.
(thanks gumball3000)
5. open odin
6. click PDA slot, wait for explorer to open, find the md5 you have extracted and double click on it
7. dont touch anything else and click start(odin will hang to check file)
8. wait for finish and it will reboot, wait for PASS in odin and you are safe to disconnect cable

All of my posted recoveries work fine. You didn't follow the directions close enough. Make sure you flash the universal root.zip once you get the recovery working. If not, it will re-install the stock recovery automatically.
Please explain how you are trying to add TWRP or CWM to your device. Do not leave out any details. This what we can see if you are missing a step. It should be a very simple process if the steps are followed correctly (as mentioned above). So please explain how you are doing it and what tools you are using.

I think step 7 is where you might be going wrong. Again, I THINK, I could be mistaken. But I would say start the tablet in normal mode before attempting to go into recovery. After the tablet starts, go ahead and shut it down. Then try and go into recovery mode.
Also, did you start Odin as an administrator? It sounds like you are OK in that regard as you got it going and loading. But if you are still having problems then try executing Odin as administrator.
Which .tar file are you loading? Is it one of the recovery files such as TWRP or CWM?
The only other thing might be the version of recovery you are trying to load. Make sure it works with your tab and firmware. I am sure you have already checked that, but just in case you forgot.

In your number 7, you should be holding volume up to get into recovery. When you see the Tab 3 logo, release the power button but continue holding home and volume up until you get into recovery.
