Root [Virgin Mobile] Downgrade from NJ2 to ND8 Baseband

I have a Virgin Mobile S3 and am currently running CM12 beta lollipop rom, all is well, love it, but recently my phone inexplicably deactivated, I had no GPS and when I tried to place a call it told me to activate the phone, something that can only be done with a stock VM or Sprint rom, seriously, you can't even reactivate it if you call customer service unless you have the stock rom installed. So I have the Kit-Kat L710PU-ND8 Sprint stock rom which I flashed with Odin and while I was reactivating the phone, Samsung apparently upgraded it to L710PU-NJ2, which is bad I believe as now I can not downgrade NJ2 to ND8, is this correct? Any way to re-flash the ND8 stock rom if I need to reactivate again in the future?
 
Yeah don't Odin flash it though. You can just flash a zip of nd8 in recovery. But do not Odin anything lower than nj2. Why do you need nd8? There is an nj2 stock tar. You don't have to Odin flash to stock to activate, you can flash zips in recovery.
