SOLVED
USB Drivers - Link
ODIN v3.07 - Link
Proper Rooted Stock Image (Torrent Link) - Link
1. Install USB drivers
2. Download ODIN v3.07
3. Backup your data
4. Do a factory reset
5. Download the below file and extract the tar file from inside it
6. Boot phone into ODIN mode
7. Flash the extracted tar file using ODIN v3.07
You should now have a like new condition stock image and rooted with all issues resolved.
OLD REQUEST
After various testing, it seems many users are experiencing various issues with the rooted System.img provided by the OP in this thread. Many report findings of "Sprint related elements" as well as various keyboard issues and things not working as they should. I wish I had the knowledge myself but on behalf of the community, I'd like to request for someone with knowledge of this guide to remake the same rooted system.img as in the original but this time confirmed with using the original stock Verizon SCH-I535 image downloadable here.
I'm sure many of us here would highly appreciate this effort and we can also carry out further testing as many users reported that soon as they flash back to that stock image, their issues have disappeared and everything starts working properly.
I will quote another user in reference to this:
Here's to hoping one of you knowledgeable developers are able to assist us with this request. :)

Well by the solved status i see it worked. I have att so I'm in those threads more just saw this and figured i'd help. I'll remove my link tmr (it was just a temp) but looks like you guys have a good torrent going so should be fine. I have posted in the att thread more how i did this just search for my posts there if you care. but as you guys found out that mkuserimage.sh never gave me a valid ext4 so i did the first part with sim2img and then forced an e2fsck, did the resize2fs, removed lost + found and then repackaged. That's it.
This is completely stock, nothing stripped, just added su and the Superuser.apk. if you put recovery on i have a debloater aroma utility i maintain here for an easy way to safely strip things off... don't have a specific vzw section but most things are the same. |

Just formatted back to stock until issues can be resolved. The stock image (which I'm told this root is + su) lost all Sprint instances and any strange extra options. Also the Keyboards are back to functioning. Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I feel that the root image has more going on with it than what we are told.
