MM firmware and Lollipop ROM - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
If I update to marshmallow firmware will lollipop roms still work on my device, like Maximus or ARHD lollipop versions?
I am S-ON thus will not be able to reflash a lollipop firmware.
I would like to try MM, but I would like to be able to get back to lollipop M-HD if MM is to buggy.
Thank you in advance!

No. You need a lollipop base and for that you need s off to downgrade

Yes, base = firmware.
As mentioned no chance to run lollipop roms if u upgraded to MM thus u need to be s-off to downgrade to have again LP roms

Stock Lollipop-->4.4.4 based ROM [possible?]

Hello guys!
I own an HTC ONE M8 [non rooted- just stock] and I have updated my device to Lollipop 5.0.1 via OTA. Unfortunately, since Xposed is currently working under beta conditions, I want to downgrade to 4.4.4 to use the "full power" of my device So my plan is to:
1. root and unlock the bootloader of my HTC [currently on stock Lollipop 5.0.1]
2. Download and flash a ROM based on KitKat 4.4.4
3. Install Xposed and all the goodies it supports [Amplify, Greenify etc]
Is my plan possible?
Thanks in advance!!
Yes ...
That's not really downgrade, it just install 4.4.4 custom ROM, so your plan should work

So, a downgrade would be returning to stock Sense 4.4.4, right? I am not interested in that.
I just want to flash a custom rom, based on 4.4.4. If that is possible with the steps I plan to follow, then OK
Yes
If I want to return to stock 4.4.4 from Lollipop, do I still need to root the phone? The phone worked perfectly well before the Lollipop update, I really regret updating, I see no benefits whatsoever and lots of problems.

Yes. You either have to root, or gain S-Off and run a 4.4.4 RUU.

Usually the WI-FI problem happens when you dont have the proper base build which is 4.16.xxx something that can be found on your phone, youll need to get an OTA update from your carrier in order to be able to enjoy ROMS that have a different base

Custom recoverys cant process OTA updates, so you will need a stock reocvery or to download the OTA zip file that corresponds to you and then you will be able to update via the RUU

HELP! Reaching 6.0 with firmware 5.1

I'm currently using a m9 Sprint/nTelos with firmware 5.1 , but I can not upgrade to 6.0 because no exist that firmware for this model.
I tried to install custom ROM based on 6.0 but no start obv my firmware is 5.1.
there a way or a rom to reach 6.0 with firmare 5.1 ?
acctually using MaximusHD 6.0
I'll be very greatful!!!
No, you cannot run a 6.0 rom on 5.1 firmware. You will get a bootloop.
If theres no rom from the carrier you have to wait. You can look into s-off but not sure if sprint/telos/verizon and other corrupt carriers have locked them out..

Bootloader Version vs ROM Version?

My question is, does it matter what bootloader version you are on for a custom rom?
Far as if I am on MM Rom (Jasmine 6/7), do I need to be on MM bootloader version or LL bootloader for LL Rom? I know I need to be MM bootloader to even be on MM ROM, but do you understand what I am asking? Do I need to be on LL bootloader for LL ROM and MM bootloader for MM ROM?
Can I be on MM bootloader and have LL ROM?
The reason I ask is I am on the MM bootloader and have Jasmine v7 installed and my camera works just fine. But I want to go back to Jasmine 4.3 (LL), but when I install it again on MM bootloader, the camera is blurry.
The only way to fix the blurry camera is to install official firmware or MM rom such as Jasmine 6/7, or even official LL firmware.
I have no problem starting the whole process of unlocking the nite 4 since I've already done it a dozen times now. But while at work was wondering if anybody had an answer other then what I am doing.

If you're on a Marshmallow bootloader you can only use ROMs that are based on the Marshmallow bootloader. Jasmine 6.0 and up are examples of such ROMs. Paul Pizz and CM13 from 6/22 up are too. (Yeah, I know, so is the 6/20 version but that was so buggy that I don't even count it.)
Jasmine 4.3 and below were based on Lollipop bootloaders and need a Lollipop bootloader to work properly.
Yeah, the ROMs may partially work if you cross them up. But they won't be usable, with the big problem being data and the lack of.
