I sideloaded 5.1 and would like to downgrade.
You can't. It's that simple.

Will I be able to update to M when it comes out or will I have to keep sideloading since I did it once?

Pretty much what the title says. If your rooted how do you install the update?

Looking for the gsm Dev edition 4.4 recovery. I boot loader unlocked and installed twrp to flash supersu, but now I want to go back to stock recovery for OTA ability and I'm not positive the recovery is any different from the other moto x versions.
Thanks!

RSD lite back to stock. There's several threads with guides back to stock.

I read your post, what is the issue? I have the same device and the stock firmwares are available for you. I am confused. You can get the proper images needed and flash through fastbooot. Your bootloader is unlocked so it's possible.

I'm looking for stock recovery after rooting my phone. I want to stay rooted, I'm not looking to RSD back to stock.

Then download the stock restore package, use Moto's Fastboot, and only flash the recovery image.

I just ordered a Moto X Verizon, and I will be rooting it and flashing Eclipse rom onto it. Is there any reason not to take all the OTA updates from Verizon, and then root and do safestrap or? Not sure how it works. I
Thank you
Go read Jcase "slap my moto" thread in original development and after your done....read it again. The many posts in that thread have the answers your looking for pertaining to OTAs and what goes along with rooting the moto x on 4.4

No custom rom for you then unless you install SafeStrap.
Yea I know I'd have to use safestrap. But is the latest OTA root able and safestrapable? Just wanted to be sure before I take the ota update from Verizon
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
Safestrap is not KK compatible yet AFAIK.
And yes it is rootable. Good amount of work though.

there is no know root explot for 4.4.. u have to root on 4.2.2.
on that note, I have used jcase's RockMyMoto to root mine and I get threw everything having root access and try to install the 4.4 OTA update and it keeps rebooting.. won't stop (on 5th time now?) ideas?
Did XT1095 receive the 5.1 update yet?
Because I rooted my phone, not quite sure whether I can receive the notification.
Thanks!

Nope not yet
You will still receive the notification even though you have root. But if you try to install it, it will fail. You have to go back to stock to be able to install it.

So I'm planning to root my X for the first time and I'm on stock 5.1.
As long as I remain on stock the moto features do not get affected right?
Also, if I am on stock rom but rooted, will it affect any future OTA?
Sent from my XT1095 using XDA Free mobile app
The stock features remain unchanged after root.
You can't take an ota with root. You have to be 100% stock for updates to work.
Sent from my XT1095
Its worth noting that you can just fastboot flash the system prior to taking an OTA to allow it. No need for a full factory reset or anything.

There you go. 100th thanks
Also, how do I check the status of my bootloader? I've got a pure edition. Pardon me for the stupid question but I've never used a device other than a Samsung which were pretty straight forward to root.
If by any chance I need to come back to stock rom what would the steps for that be?

1) Power off phone; 2) Tap and briefly hold Power and Volume Down. The bootloader version will show at the top of the next screen.
