Hey everyone... I would like to re-add my G3 to my sprint lines but the problem is that it was previously rooted and updated to CM13. Usually, when activating via their website, it requires a stock rom. I dont remember what it was on before when I rooted it and the build info doesnt give me any insight. I would like to throw a stock rom on there and activate it then replace with CM13 or even Nougat if that is an option. What is my best course of action?

What you just said. Put a stock rooted ROM on (or BareCee), activate, then flash Resurrection Remix.

I'm not sure if you need to be on a stock ROM to activate but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

My concern is that I dont remember what my last rooted base was. I dont know the ZV number. Isn't this something I need to know before throwing a rooted rom on top of it?

For anyone looking to do this, I took the advice and wiped, installed BeeCee v2 (without knowing the previous base) and it installed fine. I was able to do the profile update to activate the device and then flash back to CM. All went without a hitch.
