Help!! Downgrading to 4.4.4, Need Some Answers



So, i have got a Galaxy alpha G850F sent to me from Portugal (Vodafone) (TCL). I used another sim from another country(country i live in) which works perfectly (No country unlock code asked, i am guessing the phone was somehow unlocked before reaching to me ). The phone had Kitkat 4.4.4 and was rooted. I unrooted it and upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.2. The lollipop version has a problem with recent key and i just want to go back to Kitkat. But i am afraid that if i flash the portugal vodafone TLC firmware via ODIN the phone might get country or carrier locked. Is that possible? Also can i install the BTU(United kingdom) version KITKAT which is bloatware free? WIll it be safe? (NOTE: i get the infamous E:/ unknown volume [:/sbfs] error while wiping data/factory reset via recovery, I have back up of EFS partition)
