They won't work.
If you're on 4.3 you're stuck on 4.3 firmware, no amount of flashing old firmwares and repartitioning can fix this.
That first article is simply wrong, you can't downgrade to 4.1.2 using that method on the sch-i535.

Has anyone found any way to go back yet? Cannot take this battery life anymore. Been on battery for twenty minutes now and I'm down to 75%.

I got the message to upgrade too.
Is it necessary to un-root and return to stock before upgrading the firmware?
I side-graded into firmware mode which switched the root access and it installed into the sd cards just fine.

From what I've been reading you can root but I'm not sure if you can root once your on 4.3. Custom roms aren't currently available once you take the OTA or there is a good possibility you can hard brick your phone

Yep I know that. Never been a fan of flashing ROMs anyway. I'm fine with stock rooted. It runs better and I get amazing battery life with the zerolemon

I followed the steps and was able to get root on 4.3 just fine as well. Thanks to everyone for helping me with that.
I do have a question....it might very well be a dumb question but I'm asking anyway,
I've installed Titanium backup and I have the update.zip that I created prior to reverting to stock and then taking the OTA. From what I understand I can't use custom recovery, which was the only way I knew how to flash that update.zip to restore my apps+data. So, how do I flash this update.zip with root on 4.3? Is this still possible?
Thanks again to all for the help.
Saferoot worked for me (its a method designed for galaxy s4). Although I wouldn't recommend it. It may or may not have been the cause of a hard brick for me, but I tried unlocking the bootloader after using it, which is probably what threw it.

No. Once you took the ota you lost the ability to flash other ROMs. Unless one of the Dev's cracks the lock bootloader or finds a way around.
