Has anyone tried it? I'd like to try a custom ROM, but in case I don't like it, I'd like to have an option of going back to stock. The other option would include purchasing stock ROM from sammobile.

Where can I find a stock rooted rom? The two I found one times out during the download and the other fails when I try to flash it.

Take your pick really. I hope this helps. There are more but they are scattered. Some of these are stock based, but on a few we have there is the option to be completely stock and rooted.
I used kies to go back to stock and then rerooted. when I tried to install a tw kernel I got a soft brick. Unlike a custom ROM you can not just do a recovery back to before so I am afraid to try another kernel till I know.
stock rom w/custom tw kernel

I have a rooted AT&T galaxy s3, rooted with a custom kernel. I also have twrp and have been able to do a backup (nandroid backup) of the stock rom with stock kernel and stock rom with custom kernel. Sounds like you made sure the kernel specifically states TW, so not sure why you had this problem but I have used it...did you install custom recovery ?
I bought a JUC600 Android Mirror and it crashes everytime I run it. I believe this is because I have a custom Rom, Slim Kat. Has anyone been able to use this with a custom rom or do I have to go back to stock to use it?
Well...

I recommend to go back to stock, but back up your current ROM datas first either with TB (Titanium Backup) or NanDroid Backup because I dont think it runs on custom ROMs. :cyclops:
I also want to ask you.. What is your thoughts about the SlimKat ROM is it good? Any glitches?
Went back to stock 4.2.2 and I cannot deal. Going back to Slim Kat. There are glitches, but they are well worth it.
So I have a Sm-t700 running on cm12 with twrp custom recovery and I want to go back to kitkat stock rom. Is it as simple as just using odin to flash the stock rom or do I need to do anything else, just want to avoid bricking my device thanks in advance.
The best way to return to kit kat is like you say. Using Odin and a proper stock rom; before that don't forget previously make a full wipe through recovery
I don't have a computer and I want to revert my phone back to out of the box stock rom. Original kernal, original everything. I can't use update, even though I completely unrooted. I have modified kernal and deodex. I want to find a flashable stock rom. It doesn't matter what version because I can use update with stock rom.

Modified status won't let you OTA update.
But Sprint or Samsung Experience at Best Buy can flash that phone to latest stock. Just tell them the update fails and let them deal with it.

I don't have either in my area. Oh, I will need a flashable bootloader and stock recover for the rom as well.

I don't know how safe it is to use on our device. But you might have a look at FlashFire by Chainfire Here!
I've never used it myself but it's the predecessor of mobile odin.
Maybe someone else can weigh in on this!
