Any stock kernel?

I'd just make a cwm backup of your stock rom. Then go back and fourth. Its what I do without any issues at all. I just have to clear my play store data as I have market problems after but that's it.

When you restore from the nandroid backup you'll get the kernel you had before. So you'll have the stock kernel again when you restore

I don't think there is since you have to flash a zip file to actually root your system but you can always go back and install your stock recovery after your rooted

You can with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963812, but you won't be able to install any ROMs.

Thanks will look into it

Yes that link will work although i dont think there is a cspire version so youll have to use sprints. That said this will do what your asking as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017470

I suggest you go back to stock firmware and then try the code. Just make a nandroid and backup your pictures and stuff.
Some say it being rooted will make a code note work. Never tried myself

Thanks however Is this a fact because I would like to avoid flashing back to stock if possible. I guess it would be the safest thing to do but definitely would prefer not to.

The code will not work unless you are on a stock TW rom

Just make a backup of your current setup and go to a stock build. It's really easy. I always leave a backup of the stock rom on my phone in case I ever have some weird issue

Stock ROM

I am still new to the forums and flashing ROMs. I want to go back to the stock ROM, but I've seem to have lost my stock ROM I originally set up before I started flashing. Can anyone please direct me to where I can download the stock ROM. Thanks

Flash in recovery, but if using Odin will work better than I will do that.

I'm currently on 4.3 rooted and want to update to 4.4. Can anyone point me to a rooted 4.4 so I don't need to wipe? Of course I have a custom recovery installed.

TWRP or CWM.. Both would work.. It's a TWRP backup.. Stock and rooted.
Just tap Restore..
