Going from OC3 stock to OE2 rom - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

My phone is on stock rooted OC3 and I'm looking for advice getting to the latest cleanROM.
I know that I need to be on OE2 before flashing the rom, but I'm not sure if I should unroot and OTA to get to OE2, or follow the instructions in the lightly cleaned OE2. Or if I have it all wrong. I would greatly appreciate any advice or instructions.
Side question: does anyone have experience using both cleanROM and the extreme syndicate? What were your thoughts?

I would recommend you follow the instructions to install the lightly cleaned rooted oe2. You are less likely to install an update that breaks root. As for your side question, I have installed extreme syndicate but never installed clean rom. Extreme syndicate is totally awesome. However, reading through the thread for clean rom, many users claim to have less issues with the rom than with extreme syndicate. Hope my advice helps

[q] a less than intelligent queston regarding leaked update and offcial with flashing

Okay, I am new to this locked bootloader and safestrap stuff so please bare with me.
I am on an official 4.4.2 NC2 rooted Att Note 3.
The question is: Can I install the roms that are based off the leaked firmware? It seems pretty stupid but ooooh well.
I assume I can since the leaked update is still "signed" or whatever it is called.

Hey,
If you heard of any success stories why not? The only thing, if someone unlocked the bootloader tomorrow (Which i don't see happening anytime soon), you might be locked because with every firmware, I feel they try to lock down the device more, so if someone is close, you might be stuck!
Since you're on NC2, if it is based on the NC2 you should be fine, just make sure you backed up everything. Because I had an issue with restoring to stock NC2 read thread below.

You can always make a slot and install the rom without touching the stock. Safestrap should not modify your modem and firmware "Odin does".

Factory reset with Odin?

Does anyone have the Odin files for the latest Ota? What to go completely back to stock. Pretty sure I screwed something up. Thanks!
Sorry no Odin files for the official kit kat release are available. Urdroid in the general section is the closest thing available. It's a slightly modified stock rom.

N910T Back to Stock... Help Please.

HI Just wanted some advice. Im on 6.01 Overdrive rooted but would like to go back to stock as I feel I'm not using any rooted featured and also I'm getting problems with Oculus etc.
My Question is what's the best Firmware to flash in Odin that if I decide to go rooted again it won't block me or upgrade my bootloader. I'm on Baseband PE3 at present.
Do I need to wipe anything? Or is an Odin Flash enough. Thanks
I use epg2. You can flash the dev base for that. I pulled the boot.img from it and flashed over to remove root. The 910t had guides to get you back to lp from anything before pj2. Haven't bothered upgrading past that point.

Urgent Upgrade Question

I have a T-Mobile N910T, and have been running FireKat (4.4.4) v18 for a couple of years and loving it (with Xposed, etc). I have an urgent need to get on Android 5 or above for work purposes, but don't know want to screw myself in the process. Can anyone suggest the best options for upgrading and still maintaining as much flexibility as possible? And any pitfalls to avoid? Thanks in advance.
I would suggest Odining the latest N910T3UVU3EQC1 stock and then Odin TWRP and then flash this:
