Downgradeable? - Note 4 (SM-N910P) - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am about to buy a New Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910P), and just need to make sure that it would be possible to downgrade the Note 4 from whatever Android version is installed on it to Android 4.4.4 (KitKat).
I checked SamMobile and currently the known Android versions on the Note 4 (SM-N910P) are listed below along with their respective baseband numbers.
My question is this: can all of the basebands (Android versions) listed below for the SM-N910P be downgraded to Android 4.4.4 (baseband: N910PVPU1ANK2 or N910PVPU1ANIE)?
Baseband number/Android version List:
Date Baseband Android Version
2016-04-28 N910PVPS4DPD1 (6.0.1)
2016-04-27 N910PVPU4DPC1 (6.0.1)
2015-12-15 N910PVPU4COJ6 (5.1.1)
2015-11-16 N910PVPU4COG5 (5.1.1)
2015-08-04 N910PVPU3BOF5 (5.0.1)
2015-03-16 N910PVPU1BOB7 (5.0.1)
2014-12-12 N910PVPU1ANK2 (4.4.4)
2014-10-20 N910PVPU1ANIE (4.4.4)
I definitely need to know this before I buy since I'll be making the purchase online, and won't be able to know which Android version/Baseband version is being shipped in the new package.
Would anyone please help with this question?

Definitely not. Only OB7 can be downgraded to KitKat and none of the other more recent ones.

[Q] Can't get any version of Kit Kat to flash to my Boost Mobile S3.

Hello, everyone. I have a S3 L710 (Boost Mobile) that is currently running 4.3 stock/root and I want to update to CM11 Kit Kat. I currently have philz touch 6.07.9 d2spr recovery manager and have made a nandroid backup.
When I try and flash any version of 4.4 (I've tried various nightly builds and Bean Stalk) it just gives me a status 7 error. When I remove the asserts I just get install aborted. Here is a log of my most recent attempt: http://pastebin.com/x1AJVqqM
Here is my about device information:
Model Number: SPH-L710
Android Version: 4.3
Baseband Version: L71j0vpubmk5
Kernel Version (Line 1): 3.031
Build Number: JSS15J.L710Vpubmk5
SE for android status: permissive
Hardware version: l710.14
Any ideas? Do I have an incompatable bootloader or something? If so, how do I upgrade that?
So far I've tried to get the following roms installed. They all fail with the same error that is specified in the OP.
Cyanogenmod 11 (20140116 and 20140104): http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2spr
Cyanogenmod 10.2.0-d2spr: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d2spr

EXCEPT, I did just get MOAR 7.1.0 to flash to my phone successfully: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572102
So at least I'm on 4.3 now..

[Q] Updating from Chinese Firmware to International

I have a Huawei Ascend P6 purchased from China with the following specs:
Model: P6-U06
Android Version: 4.2.2
Emotion UI version : 1.6
Build Number: P6-U06V100R001C17B117SP01
Is it possible to flash the international ROM on this device? I have seen a few guides for updating via local update but they all require a different build than the one I'm running now. Also which is the latest stable build for the international ROM? Is B510 stable or beta?

Was there ever a 4.4.4 kitkat released?

I've run into a few posts here and there referring to a kitkat 4.4.4 for my Tmobile Note 3. They mostly refer to a build number of N900TUVUDNK3 which I cannot find. That version appears to me to be maybe the release before N900TUVUENK3 which is 4.4.2 according to Sammobile. So what gives? Is this 4.4.4 stuff all wrong?
I've just about decided to hold off on Lollipop for now and load the latest Kitkat rooted with TWRP recovery. I believe that is N900TUVUENK3 but I'd like to make certain.

No. Android 4.4.4 was never released officially for the T-Mobile Note 3.
