Several newbie doubts and some help! - Sony Xperia M

Hi everyone I'm new in this forum and I don't know anything about this smartphone world but I have some questions about my personal Xperia M. First of all I want to apologize for my bad english coz I hate web-traductors so I don't use them.
A friend told me I should install CM11 (Cyanogenmod If I remind correctly) in my smartphone coz it'd be better, I've tried to find some information in Google in my language coz I barely undertand the english technicisms for smartphones but I didn't fund anything so I decided to post in this forum.
I heard tha there is no official version for my smartphone and If I install an unofficial version this can broke my smartphone, is that true? Do you guys think that the CM11 is advisable for my Xperia? I want to know if It'll improve the performance.
How should I start If I want to install CM11 in my Xperia M? I'll let you some information:
Xperia M Android version 4.3
Never rooted it (I dont how how to do it)
Greetings!

I just noticed I posted this in the wrong section. Sorry.

[Q] [SEARCH] Android ROM

Hi,
I am not very familiar with all the terms for ROMs and so I hope u can help me to find a good ROM for my Diamond.
I'm searching for a simple Android ROM. I don want to connect to a googlemail-acc, although u might wanna say thats absolutely necessary if u use android ... It should be fast and possible to use (almost) all normal functions.
And it would be nice to have a Manual to install ...
Hope u can help me ...

[Q] Where/How do i start?

Dear all,
I just bought myself a Galaxy S. It is locked to Bouygues in France and with Android 2.2.
I am totally new to these devices and i would like to unlock it and also to get Android 2.3 on it.
How should i start? (first unlock, then update the ROM, or get a ROM from xda - I used to do that with a Qtek...)
Please advise.
Thanks
Welcome to the SGS forums, I would recommend you read the stickies at the top of this forum first.
If you look in the Apps section I think there is an app that will let you unlock for free (think it's on the android market too).
May I also say welcome, but would also like to point out that this question should be in q & &, please read the forum rules and FAQ's then you will be better equipped to proceed, I hope all goes well

[Q] Xperia Sola Full-Save before Update to ICS?

Hi there;
I´ve purchased a Xperia Sola, it shall be a Christmas Gift
Want to do some customs and install some messenger apps, so its ready out of the box.
Now i´m unsure about saving the current Android (2.3.7) it should be possible to get back to this in case of errors/dislikes with ICS (read about some error bugs with Sola and ICS).
Whats the best way on complete stock Sola to do this, or is it even necessary?
On Htc i just unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM (unofficial way).
As far as i read through some threads here, until now the only way to unlock xperias is an official way (warranty issues?)
As long as i don´t know if the gifted person feels comfortable with the phone I don´t want to do things on the firmware that can´t be undone...
So is their any way to backup the whole rom without unlocking, or is it possible to undo unlocking/rooting in case of?
Sry for my english and some newb question but i want to be sure about this.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Wrong forum, some mod can maybe move?

[Q] Looking for freedom. Eish. Rom. :)

Good day.
I must say I am a bit shy to post a question here. Usually i stick to the moderator rules and read, read and read before I even think of posting. But I did that and was very unsuccesful. So being a noob on Android rooting/flashing/rom(ing) I have no choice to take all my heart and ask you guys my question. Please bare with me if its stupid.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S SM-T705 in Egypt (LTE and WIFI). I rooted it (CF) and flashed the recovery (TWRP). I would like to install (any newer version really) of Cyanogen ROM. But I cannot find a suitable edition. Instead I am reading news about the project being abandoned and so on. So - does anybody know how to help please? Or am I gonna be stuck with this TW forever?
Appreciate your help!
Cheerio

Help to upgrade with gt-i9082

This is my second post. I was pointed to this relevant section of forums/
I am sorry if I am asking something I should not. I am not a technological guy, so I need some help and patience.
My wife has an old gt-i9082, it is at android 4.2.2. I think it is around 3 years old.
I would like to upgrade it to a better version because the cellphone system are already very slow and some app are not working anymore.
A friend told me it is possible upgrade to android 5 (or better), since the cellphone are not at warranty anymore, but I do not know how to do it.
It is a dual sin phone (I do not know if this is important), and also I do not worried if I lose all stuffs. I already back her agenda and some significant photos. I just want a new better operational android system.
So, I am asking for a step by step guide to do it, if it is possible. If it already exist, please point me to the relevant thread.
Again, sorry for my lack of understand.
Thank you very much for your time.
