Trying to revert firmware and flash new

I previously installed MaximusHD, hit bootloop and had to revert the firmware then update to the newest available. That worked and the MaxHD ROM booted right up, but sadly that OS wasn't for Verizon phones. So I am trying to install the Viper ROM and am hitting bootloop and figured I'd give that trick a shot again. The problem I am running into is now after reverting to an older firmware it shows TWO firmwares on the phone simultaneously.
Has anyone ran into this?
Thanks in advanced.
You can see the Firmware in RED in the picture...if you can't see it right click the img and open in new web page

You are with the Stock ROM your bootloader is locked and it is S-OFF. You are not with developer rom just check for update you are with old software

Updating from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 Q's

I've unlocked my bootloader and verified that it is rooted via Root Checker. That is all I did thus far, before that my note 4 was virgin unmodified in any way. How can I safely upgrade from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1... or should I update to 6.0? I want to install a custom ROM. Also if I wanted to go back to any stock ROM, can I just flash it via odin without any issues now that my phone is set to Developer mode? is there a different version I need to use or can I still use the following thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
On a side note, I tried to flash 5.0.1 stock and 5.1.1 stock from the link above... it simply failed when trying to flash it... see pic below
I've been out of the loop for rooting, it's been some years since I've rooted an android device, so any and all relevant advice/info would be appreciated... Thanks in advance...

a mess. back to 6.0.1 on 901V - has anything changed /improved for unlocking bootloader?

well im stuck. looks like flashing the 6.0.1 stock ware destroyed my pre-exisitng root. Can someone help? has anything changed in the last few yrs.(to make it easier)..anyway to root from 6.0.1 or do i have to do the pain downgrade to 5.0.1...? ( i tried cf-root and twrp - both failed..the bootloader is locked ..damn it..)
1) since i'm not rooted then any backup would not contain all the settings (pw/usernames etc)....its been a few years..is there anyway to keep full settings in a backup without being rooted?
2) if i downgradefrom 6.0.1 and flash the 5.0.1 firmware will my programs / settings be kept? I only ask because if i don't bother clearing the cache ....it may be "dirty" downgrade...but would i keep my apps/settings?
3) if i d/g to 5.01 and root it...how do i then upgrade back to 6.01 without losing the root again?
pics below of current situation...thanks
