Just got a Verizon S5. Downgraded it from lollipop to the nk2 version of kitkat 4.4.4, rooted, busyboxed & safestrapped. I was wondering if it is now possible for me to flash twrp or clockwork recovery. Also is it safe to flash vzw based roms via safestrap on my nk2 kitkat build?

Just curious if it possible to downgrade from an nae ROM to say an mk2 ROM. I'm currently running slim kat and want to try some different 4.3 based ROMs. Thanks...
With custom Roms yes. But not with Odin.

Yes you can flash any custom rom on KitKay but of course you will need a custom recovery
Any news on Safestrap 3.72 ROM Slots working in Kitkat?
I haven't tried the slots yet but i did install SS and do a backup of the stock KK

ive had the AT&T d800 for a year and a half now. i used ioroot to root the phone, and autorec to have a custom recovery. whenever i try to flash a rom, it always fails without doing anything. i dont want to go through the trouble to revert the phone back to stock jelly bean just so i can flash roms again. how can i flash roms without fully restoring my phone back to jelly bean?
Current Version
Android: 4.4.2 Kitkat
ROM version: Stock D80020k
TWRP: 2.7.0.0
tired of stock always being buggy...
Did you heard of autorec? It restores jellybean bootloader which allows you to flash roms which still uses the old loki method without the need to restore back to antthing else. Btw I also suggest to update recovery. If you do autorec, choose the right version for your model.

Yes just flashed the bumped recovery. If you would ever upgrade to the kk bootloader for some reason like custom lp stock roms then you have to have an bumped recovery else you will get an lg security error

Hey there.
I'm on lollipop stock (lg) rooted with TWRP.
Is it safe to download KitKat stock from and flash from recovery?

You need kitkat baseband. So
do a wipe, flash kitkat baseband for your model and then flash stock kk.zip
Sometimes you may get issues like signal drops etc if you dont flash the correct baseband.
