What would be the risks of returning to 2.3.7?
You might risk running software with older version and not get the latest features until you update to the latest version again.

Just curious what would happen if this were done on a rooted upgraded device?

You can't. Fastboot won't allow the version downgrade.
I am not talking about downgrading.
What I am talking about pulling the 12.15.15 recovery from the OTA to flash.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
I believe that is fine to do. It would just allow you to enter recovery again. It wouldn't necessarily allow you to take an ota successfully, I don't think. Some changes are made to /system after you root.

So why couldn't be flash the system.img to return to stock unrooted?
From my understanding the KK update completely formats the partitions during install.

This is an unofficial build of Omni Rom based on KitKit 4.4.2. There is no official support for the d2 variants. Props to androidsftw for picking apart what was needed for our d2s.
I am not the dev of this rom, all I did was add in necessary device/vendor/d2 files for d2. This is not a port, everything has been built from source.
As with all things root, I am not responsible for anything that happens while flashing this rom. You take responsibility for your actions. Nandroid is your friend.
----------------------------------
Downloads:
Omni Rom for the D2LTE - Droidhype Roms
GAPPS 4.4.2 - PA 0-Day
SuperSU - Chainfire
Kernel (optional) - BMS
----------------------------------
Installing for the first time? Grab the newest full zip from the D2LTE directory. For future updates, just go to Settings -> System Updates and let the magic happen.
HOW TO INSTALL
1. Factory Data reset
2. Wipe System/Data/Dalvik/Cache
3. Install ROM zip from Sdcard
4. Install GAPPS zip from Sdcard
5. Install SuperSU from Sdcard
6. Reboot to home screen to confirm good flash
7. (Optional) Reboot to recovery and flash kernel
TO USE DELTAS, YOU HAVE TO USE TWRP OR PHILZ RECOVERY. CWM WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE IT DISABLES SCRIPTING CAPABILITIES BY DEFAULT. If there's anything that you want the updater to flash automatically after it flashes your update, put the file(s) in the FlashAfterUpdate directory inside your Opendelta folder in your internal storage.
Join the BMS G+ community which will have quicker release info in the future for all things BMS and roms.
Enjoy!

This build is unofficial, so I don't exactly carry around a changelog. However, you can always check cmxlog for omni and see what's been changed with each version of one of their nightlies. It won't be exact as some have specific device merges, but it will give you a good idea. The dates on my builds will correspond with the officials listed on cmxlog.
You can also check their gerrit or git to see what's been merged.
This question gets posted pretty frequently so if some users could please bookmark this post, we can just repost it when needed. Here are all the links you can peruse for your changelog/update enjoyment.

Appreciate this Gideon, I'll likely try this out later today. Is SuperSU required because root isn't working without it? I've gotten used to these AOSP roms and their SU settings option.

All booted up. Lost my IMEI first boot. Rebooted and all is well. FFC seems to work. Nice work GideonX. Been wanting to try this for a while now. I appreciate all your work for us here on XDA.

Flashed and booted with lean kernel. Everything seems to be working fine so far. :thumbup:

No baked superuser. SuperSU flashable zip works just fine.

Did you lose it and have to restore it or did it come back after a reboot?

It just came back after a reboot. No restore. This thing hangs on to a signal better than most 4.4 ROMs for me. Don't know how well the switching is though yet.

Any way to install theme manager themes on this?

ROM is running very well so far. My only question is am I missing where to be able to center the clock or is that not an option with omni?

I keep getting a pop up that says no APN is specified on device. Any idea how to fix that?

Running this now. So far so good. Always wanted to try Omni out, thanks!

In the last few days Tapatalk has started acting up - it kicks me out of my XDA login after a while of me not using the app. It never used to do this. Anyone else having the same issue, or know a way of fixing it? I'm using Tapatalk 4.4.12
