Hey all. Not sire why I cant seem to find this anywhere but I was wondering if somebody could point me to the location of the the stock Verizon S4 tar file that will actually wipe and repartition/reformat my entire device. Many thanks in advance!

I get firmware from sammobile.com. but be careful with repartitioning. I wouldn't do that in Odin. Why do you want to do all that?

Well I actually want a clean setup. On my old Galaxy Nexus and even my Fascinate back in the day I would just flash the stock firmware and it would wipe everything and male or all shiny and new again. I've been experiencing a lot of mobile data drops recently and other related issues. I want to flash the MDK tar, wipe literally everything down to factory stock, and then see if the issues continue. If they do, I need to warranty my phone. If it fixes it then I'm all good to go. I'll continue looking around in the mean time though. Many thanks!

The stock firmware from sammobile will do what you want. Just put it in the PDA shot of odin and only have auto reset checked. Don't have re-partition checked.
