Help!! I want to get back to stock 4.4.2!!

[jastman]

I made a really stupid mistake.....

I was messing around with my phone and decided to flash the cm11 build onto my phone. Well, somehow i deleted everything else because i cant get the phone back to 4.4.2 stock build that i was on before i rooted the phone!!

I dont like cm 11 because i cant get any gapps loading onto it, and more than anything i love all my gapps, let alone all the apps i have through the play store.

I have tried a firmware zip file with the build l720vpufnae and then extracted it, booted into download mode to use odin v3.09 and flash it. The problem i am having is when i have the phone connected it recognizes device, then check the box and add the file on ap button, and i hit start and it freezes saying odin is not responding.

Please call someone help me? I never thought i would miss stock touchwiz so bad!!

THIS IS THE SPRINT SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 4.4.2 LPH-720

Thanks!!!:d

which version of Odin are you running? I'm currently in the same boat as you (returning to stock from CM11) Odin 3.09 seems to work fine for me but my phone being encrypted is causing an issue.

Hi Sam,
I'm having the same issue with Odin failing. I have the Sprint S4(SPH-L720) on 4.4.2 I finally was able to get back into my phone using a Candy Cat rom. The problem is my phone dial pad is delayed coming up and I cannot hear you speaking to me. HELP!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!.
