HELP NEEDED!

I recently downgraded my phone from Lollipop to Kitkat 4.4.4. Cuz i had no knowledge about the process of downgrading, i spared the 'wipe data' option in hope to access my data again. But unfortunately, my phone is stuck in boot loop and the data kept in it is VERY VERY important! I tried several firmwares of jb,kt,lp to flash it with flashtool but no luck. If i could just access my data somehow only then will i be willing to select the 'wipe data' option. Any kind of help will be appreciated. Can't i transfer my data via adb while my phone is switched off? Or any other workaround?

P.S: When i flash kitkat rom, my phone gets stuck on 'NFC Firmware Update'.

Model: C6602
Status: Unrooted
Bootloader: Locked

I am afraid there would be a factory wipe which means everything in internal storage (which is meant for apps only) will be removed. However, Sd0 (at times called internal storage 2) and Sd card data would be not affected.

Go on and just choose wipe data and you will automatically boot. I will suggest flash LP and see if your data is recovered. And then downgrade to KK.

I would try to flash lollipop again and then check whether it will boot.
If it won't, then the only way to backup your data is to go to recovery (or adb) and copy them from /data/data/
However I've never tried restoring them, so there is a possibility it won't work. Of course restore it only on the same version of lollipop you've used before the data wipe.
