Stuck On Stock Recovery & Can't Get Root



In Short
Problem: Flashing TWRP on Odin doesn't work & No root :(
Goal: Custom Recovery, Root, and a stable, bloat-free ROM

So I recently decided to try to switch ROMs in hopes of finding something stable but not outdated. As always seems to happen when I tinker with a phone, a problem arises.

I decided to try out AntaresOne's Optimized CM12 ROM since it did mention specifically supporting CDMA devices. I followed the necessary steps including changing the file systems and it installed just fine. However, I lost root access, something I really needed since I had made a nandroid backup of my data & apps which I need in order to restore the apps & data that I need.

I downloaded and followed the instructions for the CF Auto Root but despite Odin indicating that it successfully installed, the device was not rooted and SuperSU was not installed.

After failing to find any new or alternative root methods, I found a Touchwiz based ROM that claimed to have root. It required that the firmware be updated first so I did so but unfortunately, I have not been able to install TWRP since it was replaced by the stock recovery during the firmware update.

The stock ROM that came with the firmware update is running which allowed me to go ahead and make a PRL & Profile Update and I'm hoping to be able to grab some APKs.
Relevant Settings Information

This issue really has me stumped and a bit frustrated since I searched around quite a bit and can't seem to find a single other person experiencing the same problems. I've been at this for days and could use a pair of fresh and experienced eyes to give me some advice. I really would appreciate any and all help in getting this fixed.
