Chinese KitKat

By the way (off topic):
Does anybody have any experience with generic Android versions? (such as
CyanogenMod, which Mord mentioned)
We have, in the family, a Sony U which the last Sony Android upgrade
screwed it up, and I want to return it to life by installing a generic
Android under it.
I'm afraid that if I'm doing it with no previous experience, it will
"destroy" the phone.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks!
