Android Version - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

looking for a ROM and I just wanted to make sure of one thing..... Is the Android version a requirement or will ROM change version when flashed? For example I have 4.2.2 if i flash ROM for 5.1 . Will ROM not work or will my version be changed to 5.1. If it does change to 5.1 is going back to 4.2.2 as simple as flashing a 4.2.2 ROM?

If the custom ROM itself did not come as Lollipop when you flashed it, it cannot be "updated" to Lollipop. Instead, look for a version of your custom ROM that specifically states that it comes as Android Lollipop, and then flash that in your custom recovery.
