Root Any roots that are stable?

Well the "rooting method" really has nothing to do with whether or not you experience LOS. Some speculate that it is a software problem on Samsung's front, others believe it is the fault of Sprint's network, and others still believe custom kernels (with really grant root) are to blame.

I put in a custom kernel using Odin and then flashed Starburst Rom's latest (1.9.8r) which came with LoStKernelExp+. This is an easy way to root the device and I have never experienced any LOS while using the phone. The link below will provide you with more than enough info concerning the root process (complete with videos). Best of luck
