How to restore original kernel version?

I dont really understand roms and flash so forgive me.
I rooted my phone to use an app and I also downloaded the kernal franco which i dont know if its a rom or flash or what but i cant upgrade to the latest firmware and it has also bugged my phone.
I have manged to unroot my phone but i want to go back to the original kernal and have my phone how it was.
Another thing is i am a mac user so Odin is just nothing to me.
Really need help.

I guess you can use Heimdall to flash kernel using Mac.
You can download appropriate kernel from this thread,

Why use ROM manager ? Use a safe method. Flash ! Or universal kernel flasher!

did you flash CWM?¿
ROOT + CWM 5.0.2.6. FIX
If so, yes you can try whatever custom rom you want, follow dev's instruction to install it correctly

don't worry, the link I posted contains the same files ,but I think this method is the simplest.
1º Getting root, flash this file via stock recovery (shutdown your phone and push HOME+POWER button until you can access to stock recovery mode)>>> select "apply update from SD card" and flash this file ROOT
Boot intro android and then shutdown again and go to stock recovery again (HOME+POWER button to access)
2º CWM recovery >>> select "apply update from SD card" flash this file CWM 5.0.2.6. FIX
Physical buttons
VOLUME+/- to move through recovery mode
HOME to acept install the select file
POWER to go back
DONE!

But IT'S COMPULSORY YOU USE CWM 5.0.2.6 FIX or CWM5 based to flash correctly whatever rom, so root your device and then flash the CWM I posted

C. Flashing the newest firmware:
Turn off your phone
Remove your SIM Card and SD Card
Extract previously downloaded firmware
Open ODIN 4.38 on your PC and change OPS file name to
Code:
Cooper_v1.0.ops
Select from extracted archive: OPS-OPS, Boot-APBOOT, Phone-MODEM, PDA-CODE, CSC-CSC (leave EFS and One Package empty)
If archive contains only <filename>.tar.md5 select it as PDA and OPS as OPS, leave other fields EMPTY
Connect your phone via USB into PC
When the screen is turned on hold POWER+VOLUME DOWN+HOME and wait until the phone enters the Download Mode
If ODIN detected and recognized your phone should light up the first square to the left side
Press "Start" button and wait, the process should take ~5 minutes
If all goes well your phone should reboot automatically
Square should change the color to blue and display "PASS" it means that flashing process was successful and we have the newest firmware
Disconnect your phone
Turn off your phone
Insert your SIM Card and SD Card again
Turn on your phone
Now you have the newest firmware!
You can find latest firmwares HERE, IMO Spanish FOP rom (KTM 2.3.6.) is the best, but can choose what you want

Have a look at changelog, It show differences between RC4/RC5 (cyanogen sources updated e.g.) and of course you can flash this rom, you only need to follow dev's instruction to install It correctly

Which rom are you using?

Not working
Thx for all the posts, they are appreciated. However, every step ive tried comes to failure. I have deleted the zip file and replaced it with the one from the link. I even formatted my ad card but no luck. I dont know whats happening. I can see the root.zip but there are other files as .root.zip.
I dont know what they are.
Btw, I dont have a rom, I thought roms are only accessible by rooted phones?
Kind Regards
