Need stock kernal

I've been using yargs for about a month now and always seems to have problems with my WiFi dropping. I made a cwm backup before I flashed yargs but would hate to have to revert my phone that far back.
I'm on newest ota rooted and unlocked.

Restore just an earlier system to restore kernel.
I have not seen a stock zip but I bet arrrghhh's Q kernel thread has one.

I think you could RSD straight to the OTA without wiping data. That should work. Or you could extract the boot.img from the RSD and flash it via fastboot

Thanks for the solution but I was hoping for a flashable zip. I have yet to dabble with RSD and am sorta nooby with this stuff.

Checked out his thread here on xda and didn't see the RAZR m stock kernel.
I have a cwm backup from when I was using stock kernal. Anyway I can extract just the kernel from that?

No. But you can restore just that system. Wipe dalvik & cache, not data.
OR
Just reflash your rom. Wipe dalvik & cache, not data.

Get the full RSD XML from http://sbf.droid-developers.org
Then, open it using something like 7 zip. You should be able to find the boot.img in there.

Tried this and something must be wrong with the backup because it fails when trying to restore system =(

Are you on 100% stock MK2 unrooted? If you are on a custom ROM or have a custom recovery with root it will not install the zip as it checks to see if your phone has any modified files.

The phone isnt rooted and it has the stock recovery, as u said how can i check if there are some modified files?

Did you delete, froze any apps that came with the phone? Did you install hotspot or anything that modified the system?

I havent deleted any app, the hostpot is the original app from sprint
But i still dont know why it wont update

If you really want to update to kit kat then just odin mk2 .tar and do a fresh install again and just try the download again.

You won't lose your data. A stock tar install does not erase data unless you do a factory reset.
Ok then i will have to wait for the update.zip from Sammobile firmware
