changing back to stock kernel - Epic 4G General

How do I get back to the stock kernel? I've used odin before to go back to sstock rom but I have to take my phone in to sprint repair and wondering how I get too stock kernel. Does flashing the di18 tar file also flash the new stock kernel or do I need to flash jjust the kernal in odin? Thanks

It should have the stock kernel in the tar file. At least the file I have has it. I can't remember where in this forum I found it. If you want I can email it to you.

Here I just figured out how to do this lol.

[Q] Problem!!

Hey noob question here. I flashed the viper rom and I don't like it . How do I unflash it, as in make things back to normal.
The obvious answer would be use your backup if you made one. If not you can flash a different rom. If you decide to flash a 2.1 rom you'll need to flash a 2.1 kernel as well. If you want to go back to stock I would just odin back to stock. Instructions here:

except use the file from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794138
I would consider something like the acs dk17 because it's completely stable and it is essentially the same as a 2.1 stock rom but it has the capabilities of 2.2. Going back to 2.1 would (to me) be the same as using a stock dk17 rom like acs, which I'm using right now and loving. Two cents.
odin
Is there only one type of odin because the link you gave me for restoring had a broken odin download link. I see another odin download that's for the acs dk17 and was wondering if it'll be the same.
Yeah you can use the new odin. If for some reason that fails pm me and I'll give you the old version of odin.

custom rom via odin?

Is there a possibility to flash a custom rom such as the bionix or axura or nero through odin?
I used odin several times to restore to complete stock and I feel comfortable using it, so this would be really good.
If there is such an option can you please point me to the right thred or the download locations.
Thank you!
You may be able to get one of the DEV to make you a .tar for one of them..I don't believe there is though..

couple questions.

Sorry about these questions all Im sure they are newb but I just want to make sure before I go about doing anything....
1. I am rooted on MF9 and thinking about going to the google Rom is there a 4.3 out for the Sprint version or it just 4.2.2 just need a no or if yes a little link to help me out due too I have not seen one.
2. If I go to google rom and decide I want to go back to MF9 how do I go about doing this in odin do I use official MF9 software? or what?
The GE rom posted here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345386
is off of the 4.2.2 GE S4.
If you're looking for a rom based off of 4.3, give the Cyanogen Rom 10.2 nightly a shot, located here. http://get.cm/?device=jfltespr
The thread describing bugs, and all that fun stuff is here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405081
To go back to stock, you can either flash the stock M9F rom through custom recovery, or odin everything back to stock using this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357471

Use either the post above for pure stock or this
Download Deodexed No Data Wipe Tar from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357471
For stock + root + busybox
Assuming you have a custom recovery installed just make a backup in recovery before flashing the new ROM. Then you can revert to your old rim anytime you like.
ok cool thanks everyone for your help new to the S4 things so trying to catch up yea Im running MF9 Rooted at the moment with CWM about to see what this google rom and just trying to make sure I don't brick my phone taking it calm and easy for a bit will get more gutsy soon enough lol

NC4 Kernel

Hey guys, sorry if this is a duplicate post but I'm trying to return to stock Verizon through restoring a backup and my phone gets stuck at the Verizon splash screen. I'm thinking it's because of the kernel
I rooted>safestraped>installed jasmine 2.4>flashed NC2 kernel via odin.
Jasmine runs fine, and honestly I like it a lot but I want to get better battery life so I need to revert to stock.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the kernel causing the issue where stock won't boot up fully?
And if I am, can you point me in the direction of an NC4 odin flashable kernel?
Thanks in advance

Well I want to revert to stock but I want to go back to the backup I made.
Is there no way I can just flash the NC4 kernel to go back?

Good question. I'm a little new to the note 3 ...lol I switch phones a lot. I've had the same issue as you with restoring stock backup. It probably is kernel related due to having NC2 flashed to run custom builds. Maybe some else can chime in.

But I want to try to avoid wiping the device totally, or will I be able to install the ROM without fully wiping my device?
You can extract the kernel from the stock rom.
I think it is a good idea to have a copy of the stock rom in case there is a need to flash back to a stock rom.

Would you be able to tell me how to extract it? I already have a copy of the rom.
Edit - Never mind I got it, Thanks for the help!
If lean kernel has aroma installer then there should be a feature of going back to stock kernel If not then:-
Try pekaka kernel where you've feature of aroma installer and there's a step to revert back to stock kernel.
I usually uses same method to revert back to stock. After that keep backup of your kernel
