Stock Kernel GT-I9500

I've been looking for the stock kernel for my Galaxy S4 GT-I9500. I flashed a custom kernel thinking about "higher scores" in benchmark tests but it didn't work and now I'm getting lower scores... Even with the CPU overclocked to 2.0 GHz... But I can't find the stock kernel.
I have the stock firmware (thanks to SAMMOBILE) on my laptop but I am trying to avoid the master reset. I'm uploading a screenshot of my current firmware so that it would be easier.
I hope someone can help me and if this is a repeated thread; well sorry about that.
THANKS! :good:

Please open the tar.md5 file of your rom with WinRAR and extract the boot.img file and send to me i'll convert it to you as an Odin flashable pack
EDIT : Here is the link for the stock kernel extracted from my rom zip and converted to an Odin flashable pack It goes on the AP tab of odin no need to wipe anything https://mega.co.nz/#!ZZ5HQSLK!5VSAHAQW8_n2upHObILy7lLNa2coEFI-KRdwibC7WIA

Its a great method for switching kernel but there in anpther problem. Perseus kernel stops android logger so when you return to stock kernel you will get bunch of fc's. I didnt manage to take care of it. I always install a rom when switched to stock kernel.

I´ll probably install Omega ROM, I actually did it but lost 3G signal, so I went back to stock (rooted)

Galaxy Grand Stock Kernel

Hi All,
I just extracted the stock kernel (boot.img) from I9082XXUBMJ3_I9082ODDBMJ1_I9082DDUBMJ1 and packed it for cwm flashable zip.
I did this for my own backup purpose.
I was facing MTP issue with Evolution kernel so felt like reverting to stock kernel.
Publishing it for the just reference sake.

thanks for the kernel. Can you tell me how to extract the kernel from the firmware tar file ??
and how can we take backup of OTA updates by Samsung ?
I don't want to download the whole 945 MB of firmware again.

If you open the tar file in any zip software you can find the zimage.bin file, that's your kernel
For OTA I guess you have to capture the downloaded ota on your phone. Search on xda to see how to capture ota

I think it would be simpler and faster to just flash the stock ROM, since nobody seems to be able to offer you any further advice on this.
