First you need root.. Of course.. But once you've got root.. are we doomed to stock? Nope. Go to playstore and grab 'Rom Installer'.. link... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.rom.installer

Open the app and if your running the old 720 you can skipe this step and move to step #2.

Step #1.(L720t only) open rom installer app.

Step #4. Reboot, wipe cache and whatnot...and flash. All is automated at this point. After it finishes downloading.. it should ask if you want to flash. Hit yes. Done. ;)

Never found it. Dang hoops of fire? Lol if you are able to post it on here let me know. Also let me know if I can directly download it to my device and flash and if I need anything else. Thanks man
 
I made the TWRP recovery and I downloaded CM 10. Something, but Idk what I did wrong, I'm not very good at flashing roms apparently...

It wound up rebooting back to touch wiz like before

Edit- running cyanogenmod flawlessly :)
 
Funny how the last few posts both have edits for success. ;) I guess I made my tutorial pretty well. *thumb up*

You made it perfectly, I just suck at reading instructions so I watched a video on what to do in recovery mode, but if it hadn't have been for you I would have never been able to do it thanks for all the help :)
