What are the instances a recovering team cant advance the ball? I know the kicking team can not advance if they recover an onside kick. Are there others?

The kicking team cannot advance a ball on a punt or field goal if it's recovered beyond the line of scrimmage. If the return team possesses the ball, then the kick is over and any fumble after that can be advanced.

Other than that, pick it up and run.
