My gt-p7510 is rather sluggish since flashing a lollipop rom. What is the best/safest way to get back to 4.4?
The same way you flashed lollipop.

Omni 5.1 IS a lollipop based ROM. So you haven't downgraded. You just went full custom instead. How's it running?

nope, 4.4.2 unless your on a custom rom.
So I rooted with towelroot a couple months back, and currently running the latest Trents rom (4.4.2 I believe?). I was curious if anyone else has been able to install lollipop roms? I get a bootloop when installing through safestrap (latest version). I also just get a black screen when attempting to install 4.4.4 roms (I tried the latest DU 4.4.4). Anyone know why this may be happening, is there a fix? If you need more info I'm happy to provide... I'm just not sure what info would be useful.
Since you're on 4.4.2 with Safestrap and your bootloader is locked, you have to stick with Touchwiz ROM'S that are using the 4.4.2 stock kernel.
4.4.4 and Lollipop won't work since they're not using 4.4.2 stock kernel.

Great, I figured this was the answer, but I wanted confirmation. I appreciate it.
HI,
I'm currently on NK1 with the EmptyGalaxy ROM. It works awesome but I'm considering trying the Phoenix and/or Stang Lollipop ROMs. I just want to know if once I flash those, am I stuck on Lollipop, or will I be able to restore/revert back to KitKat EGR?
Thanks

Go ahead, I have Albe95 S6 rom with the same bootloader (NK1) and I can get back to KitKat just by installing again safestrap, nc5 kernel and then flashing any 4.4.x rom
Thanks for the info!
this might be a Question most Moto E users will have when they want to flash a new ROM.
i want to flash cm14/lineage OS. i want to know that can i directly flash the new ROM using TWRP? will it brick my phone?
i have a rooted Moto E xt1022 with stock ROM 4.4.4 with unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed.

so can i flash my stock 4.4.4 android to fully unroot, and then update to 5.1 lollipop with the OTA, and then root and directly flash the lineage rom? i heard that one needs to update to lollipop to update one's bootloader...
that would be the correct and safe process right?

Well for starters and device specific https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/warning-downgrading-information-moto-e-t3062859
But there can be other reasons like flashing unstable, wrong roms recoveries kernels scripts etc..

Do you mean we can't downgrade the ROMs, 7.1 to 5.0 directly, so do we have to go 7.1 to 7.0 to 6.0 and then 5.1 and then 5.0?
No we can downgrade directly. But be careful, we shouldn't go to 4.4.2 we can go to lollipop or 4.4.4. I have tried it myself and went back to lineage too
I have los14.1 now but want to go to either 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 . I found an aosp 5.1.1 rom for the device though it had many issues. So anyone using it, can you please tell me if it's stable and what's working and not working as of now. And which ROM would be better? Stock 6.0.1 or aosp 5.1.1.
Also performance wise which one better? Stock 5.0.2|5.1.1|6.0.1??

Hi, I ve just downgraded to 5.1.1 coming from Los 14.1
Have been on 6.0 too and went back to experiment a OTA update (from LL to MM)
Have to say that 5.1.1 is fast and smooth, like no other. both 6 and 7.1.2 custom ROMs.
I will stay there since I don't find a new reason to upgrade...

Everything works as expected in 5.1.1 and that is very relaxing: wifi, bluetooth, motodisplay and notification, no forcecloses or crash, no random reboot.
Stock softwares, with last updates from PlayStore, are also very smooth.

Did you flashed all the system files?
Lockin the bootloader isn't necessary or rilevant in my opinion.
Last question.. which os where you at when firstly rooted the phone? Sometimes Android is hard to downgrade..

Not sure but you probably need to flash 6.0, the last original os available.. I rooted when phone was 5.0.2 and actually I can't flash that version but higers (5.1.1 or 6) only
