Hi, i hope i understand clearly - do you want install custom theme, right? So you have to install ROM with theme manager support, like CM or AOKP.
Difference between theme and ROM?? Sorry, but this is veeery noob question... Theme only modifies system look. ROM... is a ROM This is a whole system.
And yes, you can install CM 11 BUT:
- You have to install firstly newest CWM Recovery 6.0.4.3
- make full wipe and system wipe before install

a theme only replace the system ui and some apps ui and for using it you must have installed a rom that supports the theme engine, so a rom replace the entire system, it is something like a custom version of android!
[you can install the xposed framework and xthemeengine too, so you can apply a theme without changing rom]
and cyanogenmod 11 can be installed on the gnex, not on 4.2.2! it will replace your 4.2.2 with a custom and adapted [and very smooth and performant] android 4.4.2 kitkat!

This is a custom ROM.
So what I mean is: this is NOT official ROM from Samsung, but it is built from a firmware like that (stock based ROM), so You will have all the Spen features and Sasmung stuff. It is rooted, You probably trigger your knox flag and Your warranty will be void.
Non stock based ROMS are others that don't support all samsung apps, like Snote, Multiwindow etc. These are for example: Cyanogenmod, AOSP, AOKP, AOSB, Paranoid Android, MIUI and others.

To make it easier for you to understand ,the ROM link you provided is "stock" samsung ROM but the difference is it's "pre rooted" (but you still got to update to latest SuperSu by chainfire for the apps to detect it's root) and it's dedoxed. It has NO note 3 or Samsung S5 modded apps ,if you want to a ROM with note 3/s5 apps go for DN3RC2 or Jellykat v5 both are based on leaked NC2 firmware (the official one is ND3). As you said you are on stock 4.3 so there's a guide made available by a fellow xda user @smeet.somaiya where you don't need to root or worry about deknoxing ,link to his Thread.Follow his guide if you don't want to root your phone yet

Yes, mostly any custom ROM is better than a stock ROM.
It's faster and it has mostly more features, for example You may have Note 3 and S5 features (however not all of them if our phones don't have a proper hardware for it, f.e. fingerprint scanner etc.)
To install other ROM it's mostly recommended to do a full wipe, as upgrading may result in many "Force closes" or the phone won't even boot.
So always wipe data, dalvik cache when changing to other ROM.

tnx
can you tell me guys what custom rom is better than all custom roms ? DN3 or jellycat ? (on android 4.4)

it's a LEAKED stock rom before official French 4.4.2 release.
it does have more tweaked function but is a customized one. it also doesn't work like DrKetan_MultiTool as it doesn't provide other fumctionality other than to flash the rom.

Somehow the DN3 couldn't boot at my note. From stock based ROMs I used only AirCommand ROM and it was working pretty well, however I personally prefer CM-based ROMs, they are much faster and support ART.

[Q] Android 4.4 ROM for Xperia Acro S .

Hello,
is there any port for Xperia Acro S based on stock ROM 4.4 or 4.3 atleast ..?
Thanks in advance..

For unlocked bootloader:
CM11: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2768934
Beanstalk: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2411343
AOSP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785450
Carbon: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2695623
ParanoidAndroid: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2534268
How many possible ROMs do you want?
If you want one for locked bootloader: you're out of luck.
If you want a stock Sony 4.4 ROM: theme one of the previous ROMs. Most Xperia apps (like the launcher, music app, video app, etc) are ported so you can install those and I'm sure there are Xperia themes for the theme manager so the icons match.

There are much roms with CM11!
Each ROM with [CM] in the Title is a Cyanogen mod - based ROM
I use for example Paranoid Android!
I´m realy happy with this ROM but i want the Stock-Camera back!
Question to Heavy Users, is there a Chance to run the Stock camera-App
(Mostly because of using the camera-button to take quick pictueres)
Best regards!

So it's simply not working port

Look here...
There doesn't seem to be a very active forum though...
The two ASOP rom's that actually seem to have active forums are:
ParanoidAndroid 4+
and
Carbon Rom
I've used Carbon quite a bit, I haven't actually tried Paranoid. I have had prior builds of CM11 also installed on my zl...
Backup your boot loader before you unlock your phone (if you intend to play with any of these... you have to unlock your boot loader... if you try to install without unlocking your boot loader, your phone will boot-loop...)
Read a bit before you get too excited with trying stuff...

If You want camera features, then don't go for CyanogenMod as it the camera there is pretty simple. Go for a Stock based ROM.

No, stock based ROM and Official Firmware is different. Stock based ROM is a ROM which is very much similar to Official firmware, but has some modifications as needed. Some of those are : eXistenz
Honami
