[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] drakonizer:
​

Hey guys! I have owned my Galaxy Player 4.2 for about a year now and am tired of waiting for a custom ROM for it. So I decided to take the matter into my own hands. At first my thought was to try developing CM for this device. But that idea was discarded mostly because I am a noob at linux kernels and basically building android itself. Not only that, even if I did succeed in building a ROM, it is sure to have a LOT of bugs that I am sure I would'nt be able to fix. So my next goal was to try and make the stock gingerbread feel like a jellybean/kitkat ROM, an idea that I got from the R.E.D.D ROM for the Galaxy Players 4 & 5. I started modding the stock deodexed ROM about 2 months ago and now I have modded it to an extent where a non-developer would swear that it was a CM10+ ROM ;). So anyway, enough chitchat, let's go to the actual ROM!

DISCLAIMER:

I have made this ROM from scratch, i.e, modded every part of it manually. If you would like to use any part of this ROM, or the ROM itself for any development purposes, please go ahead, but PM me first and give proper credits.

Although this is my own ROM and I personally use it as a daily driver, I do not take any responsibility for bricks and/or failed flashes, even though there is less than 1% chance for such an incident.

Now moving on to the...

FEATURES:

Basically, once you flash this ROM, I am sure you'll stick with it. (unless a miracle occurs and we actually get a stable CM port ;) ).

Update v1.3 is online. You can flash it OTA by installing the OTA Update Package below, or directly flash it with CWMr.

Installation Instructions:

NOTE:

As of now, I'm only aware of this method to install the ROM. You need to be on a stock deodexed ROM first. I'm not sure why, but it is not possible to make the transition form the stock odexed ROM to the customized ROM. So here are the instructions to flash the ROM:

-> First, download any deodexed ROM ( This one has been reported to work http://d-h.st/u4C) (thanks [MENTION=5612563]groovychap[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4056635]ChaosChris[/MENTION] )

-> Download HoloFrenzy

-> Boot into CWM recovery

-> Flash the deodexed ROM

-> Once it finishes, reboot and boot into recovery again.

-> Now flash the HoloFrenzy ROM.

-> Clear cache and dalvik-cache

-> Reboot. Done

Installation Instructions for update packages:

-> Make sure you're on HoloFrenzy

-> Download the update package

-> Flash in CWM

-> Reboot. Done

Bug Reports and Feature Requests:

If you notice any bugs, feel free to post here and/or send me a PM. I will look into it ASAP.

I hope that all users of this ROM find it great to use. If you find anything unthemed or if you want any features, please don't hesitate to post here or send me a PM. If it's possible in GB, I will try my best to implement it.
