Hi I'd really appreciate some help! I'm totally lost. I need someone to PLEASE explain some of this to me like i'm 5!

I've been trying for hours to understand what steps to take in getting a working 4.4.4 version on my Xperia Z and i'm close to giving up.

I've followed the guide and unlocked my bootloader successfully. Here's what it shows about my phone:



I'm reading and reading different forums on what's next and its not clicking with my thick head for some reason.

How do I get to a stable version? Can I install something like Cyanogenmod and is there a latest version?

Any help would be so so nice!
