Moto G launcher - bootanim loop

Hi,

I have an XT1032.
1. In stock, locked bootloader, I let the OTA 5.0 and 5.1 updates run (so it's on 5.1's bootloader and radio now).
2. After a week, I realised I don't like 5.1, as GPS has issues for me in navigation apps.
3. I unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and downgraded using the optimised 4.4.4 zip + NoMoto v004.zip.
4. Got scrolling lines at first boot, but no other problems for about 2 weeks. I LOVED 4.4.4 compared to 5.1, much better GPS performance!
5. After two weeks, my device went crazy: it went into a boot loop, where the boot logo kept appearing for 10 seconds, then launcher screen (pattern lock), then boot anim, then pattern lock etc. There was no way to power off the device, it always kept turning on.
6. I went into recovery and did a factory restore, it fixed it.
7. After I set up the phone again, in a few hours, I got the boot loop AGAIN.
----
8. After this I decided to install 5.1 optimised, which works perfectly.

However, as GPS is better on 4.4.4, I'd still like to go back to 4.4.4.

My questions:
1. What can be the crazy lockscreen - bootlogo - lockscreen - bootlogo loop?
2. How can I fix it (if I install 4.4.4 again)?
3. Is it related to having the bootloader from 5.1? The scrolling lines are not a problem but this boot loop is.
