I was having some wierd symptoms, i would say, maybe its just my own trying too hard.

about 6 Mos ago I went from NK4, to I545_OC1_Stock_Rooted_ROM_wNK4_BL.zip, flashfire and supersu(towelroot maybe initially through NG5 -> 6)
Its been complaining about an OTA for the last month, has since been bugging the hell out of me, so i took the notion to move to CM 12.1.
So, now i come along and **** with it (6 months later), I fugged some things up along the way. i now recovery, and cant for the life of me get a custom recovery either (twrp or cwm) (believe me i tried everything, now i see its just not really possible with known methods). I even was able to boot still having a system and tried installing the APK via ES FE, or with heimdell ui even, heimdell on command line, or odin new and old.
Can i push some adb trickery in?
So, Not being able to boot into any recovery, stuck with ODIN mode, i did the unthinkable, i think i moved up to OC1, but i also moved back first, or tried after, not knowing danger of newer ones locking out previous.
Atleast i was able to boot back into my system. I thought maybe it was root issue, so i tried kingroot which said i didnt have root, but root checker said i did (hindsight said i DID, kingroot lied prob)so i let KingRoot run and bam it then said it too had root, great but what did that accomplish? before it was supersu asking, now its kingroot asking for grant...
So after trying everything with odin and heimdell that i could get to actually work that didnt stop, fail check, or some other error to no avail other than stock or non working recovery, and OC1 was successful. I simply wanted to get custom recovery on there (oops)
Im thinking fireflash to flash CM12.1 straight away on this NK4 bootloader with OC1 stock rom on here, is what i need to using,would that be correct to assume?
