I have the Verizon XT1028 (Prepaid) and was hoping to downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 in order to unlock the bootloader.
I planned on using this information:

I have an XT1033 Asia retail, and im trying to unlock its bootloader AFTER upgrading it to 4.4.4 stock kitkat. Ive read that it is a common bug with the bootloader of moto g after upgrading to 4.4.4. I follow all the steps perfectly, but when i type the unlock code in CMD prompt, it shows failure in unlocking due to wrong unlock code. Is there any fix available? Is there any way to downgrade XT1033 asia retail locked bootloader to 4.4.2? Would it do the trick? Please help me.

Is this possible?
"Downgrade" to the official Cricket 4.4.2 (or .3) ROM
Install Sunshine and unlock bootloader
Install Lollipop or CM
I'm pretty sure the Cricket phones have locked bootloaders that are not easily unlocked - even through Motorola 'officially'.
I have rooted motorola driod ultra device on 4.4.4 kitkat
system version is
24.13.3.obake_verizon

su6-7.3
Can i downgrade to jellybean...plz.
Downgrades are impossible without unlocked bootloader AFAIK
And the highest version that can unlock the bootloader currently is su4.21
All you can do is use crashxxl's trick to downgrade to su6-7(.0) and then you can use xposed

I have perm root and bt unlocked with sunshine and i am on SU4.21, i have 4.4.4. and I would like to go back to 4.2.2. Will you help me downgrade?
AFAIK, downgrading from 4.4 to 4.2 would most likely brick the phone unless you leave the 4.4 bootloader and downgrade the other files. But I don't know how stable with the phone running 4.2 on 4.4 bootloader, probably not very.

Hello,
A few days ago I managed to go back to a stock rom from a custom one. I have a FRD-L09432B360 firmware at the moment, but the bootloader is unlocked. I don't remember the code I used to unlock the bootloader, and I'd like to relock the bootloader so I am able to update to the latest firmwares. I've read that by downgrading to Marshmellow the bootloader will relock itself.
I am following this guide to do so, but when I reboot to apply the UPDATE.APP of the rollback package, it get stucks on 5% for a while, and after a few minutes it reboots, leaving me with the same firmware.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Is there another way to relock the bootloader without the unlocking code?
Thanks a lot,
Mcat
I still haven't been able to fix this issue? Any idea is appreciated, thanks
You don't need to relock the bootloader to update. Use hurupdater
