You are mixing things. It is android 4.4.2 Kit Kat, no 4.2.2. The unique u can do is:
- Do a FACTORY RESET
or
- Wipe all and flash again KitKat 4.4.2 by ODIN

I suggest you should try to flash official firmware through odin. Since the guy said he already flashed 4.4.2 then you could try to flash yourself again 4.4.2. If he or you successfully flash it, official/stock kernel should not be an issue. Follow Khizar's guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51601704.
Find the firmware at sammobile for your country/carrier

[Q] lost wifi after flash, please help

Hi, I've had my Note II LTE for about 16 months. I found it very unstable on the stock 4.1 android it came with and eventually figured out how to flash it and went with the Slim Bean mod I found here, which has been pretty good. However with the latest build of Slim Bean 4.4.2 build 5, the volume was far too low in calls, so I decided to try the stock 4.4.2 rom [ROM] Official Stock Samsung KitKat 4.4.2 rooted & deknoxed
However although it flashed fine, my wifi now won't turn on on the phone, everything else seems to work, but the loss of wifi is a catastrophe.
Furthermore it seems to have unrooted the phone so I can't use RomManager anymore to flash any other rom.
At the moment I'm stuck, I can't seem to flash any Rom as RomManager won't work, I cant boot into recovery (no option) and the Rooting method I orginally used no longer seems to work with this 4.4.2 official Samsung stock build.
Can anyone help me? Either to fix the wifi, or to get a working rom flashed?
Thank you

well by fixed it, I mean I managed to flash a different working rom to it, not that I managed to get the wifi working with the rom I mentioned above.

[Q] Samsung S4 SGH-i337m - Can I root it normally

Hey people of XDA,
It's my first time posting so forgive me if its a repeat or dumb question but here goes my story :
I bought a used S4 that was rooted + aws enabled. It was working fine until one day it got stuck on the Samsung logo during boot. I tried clearing cache and factory resetting from the recovery but that didnt work. So I proceeded to reverting the phone to the stock rom with odin, which I got from Android rootz ( Google telus s4 stock rom, its the first link ).
So that worked, the phone booted its 4.2.2 but , no Wifi and no sound no AWS. My question are :
- Why arent the wifi and sound working if it was stock ?
- can I root my S4 following the steps in this thread : (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800 ) ?
- does it matter which version of Android im on ? for instance, I was thinking about installing the stock kikat for telus before rooting ?
- Does it matter if i use odin 1.85 vs newer versions
THANKSSS

1. I would install 4.4.2
2. If it wont work with odin1.85 use the 3.09 version
3. Install philz touch recovery and select "clean to install a new rom" so everything will be cleaned and the wifi should work fine after flash with odin
4. root it with www.towelroot.com
5. I hope I answered all your questions

Hey,
I really appreciate your help...i just started all this stuff yesterday so lm going to look into philz touch recovery. Also I think I know how to root using odin so im just going to do that once my phone starts working ( unless that doesnt work on 4.4.2 ? )
However, Right now can i just use odin to add in kit kat stock rom for telus ( or any other stock rom for that matter - maybe the one i used was bad )? I honestly want to worry about rooting and AWS after getting the phone fully functional
Thanks again i really appreciate your help
