So here's what happened....
Yesterday I decided to root my phone. That part was successful. I then attempted a flash of cyanogen mod. I didn't get that far though. I made a backup with safestrap but encountered some problems. I finally managed to get the stock ROM back onto my phone (Odin is a life saver) So now I'm on 4.3, not rooted, it's an AT&T SGH-i337...but my WiFi and data are disabled due to KNOX. When I enable my WiFi, it flashes then immediately switches off, while a KNOX notification says "The device has detected an application attempting to perform actions that are not permitted. these actions have been blocked" and tells me to restart my phone (That doesn't' help). Should I flash a rooted ROM and disable KNOX with the terminal emulator? Is there a way I can get myself out of this seemingly unending hole I've dug myself into? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I would start by using Odin to push the later ROM, 4.4
Then I would go from there. It's a bad idea to go backward on versions, Stock ROMs at least. If you need further help you may want to register so we could have a dynamic conversation.
 
Alright, I will try that. Would it be possible for you to link me to exactly the files I need in order to flash 4.4.2? I want to make sure I don't screw it up again.
Basic things about my phone:
AT&T SGH-i337
4.3
Build number: JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2

Really don't want to go through the horrors of a boot loop again... Thanks in advance.
 
They are referring to internal storage as per the 4th instruction. The .zip file can be placed in internal or external storage.
 
Yeah, I got it actually... I managed to find a 4.4.2 ROM and flash it with Odin... All my problems are solved! Thanks for the help though.
