For the best CPU performance set the min. CPU frequency to 600 MHz in Settings/Performance/Proccessor, and activate 'Set on boot'

Can GP 3.6 support 1200 Mhz overclock ? I read the motorola defy can be overclock to 1300 Mhz.
EDIT :
With conservative governor (1100-600 Mhz), I get a better antutu score than ondemand governor : 4807 points.

Will the bluethoot pan sharing connection work?
I used my omnia i900 with some other devices (like galaxy s3) and it's work but with gingerbread or ICS devices didn't work

If we've the 4.2 Player, will we have to compile the kernel ourselves? Because the kernel does not compile on my computer.

@Androthan is working on CM11 for the 4.2. Compiling just the kernel isn't enough, you'll need a device tree of the 4.2 made for CM11 and build a ROM with that.

Actually bluetooth isn't working, so I can't tell you.

The kernel source for the 4.2 player, from my github account, are still under constructions and won't work.
And, of course, you don't need to compile it yourself.
I'll start with porting to 4.2 when the build for the 3.6 is a lot more stable.
BTW, the player 4.2 is off-topic here

I'll try to get it to 1.2 GHz (I already know what to do). But I'll to do when CM11 is a lot more stable.
1.3 GHz seems to be a bad idea, it could burn out the cpu and drain the battery

No problem, but I think it's better to add a new frequency entry, not change the 1000 Hz to 1100 or 1200 for a better cpu throttling.
Like this {300, 600, 800, 1000, 1100, 1200}
EDIT : can we have in the future (priority for wifi and video playback) add more governor ? (interactive, smartass, ...)

It's very difficult to add a new frequency entry but I'll try my best.
Yes, I'll add some governors later, when everything is more stable.

I speak a lot, but I don't now how it's difficult because It's too hard for me =P

The bootanimation is kinda big for our screen. Maybe we can resize it?
Also, the home button in US version doesn't work.

Android 4.4.3
***Android 4.4.3 is out***
Google released the Android update 4.4.3. This update contains mostly bugfixes and improvements (Read more here: http://liliputing.com/2014/06/whats-new-android-4-4-3-kitkat.html) Don't expect any new features with this update. CyanogenMod is currently merging Android 4.4.3 into CyanogenMod 11, so we have to be patient. As soon as this is done, I'll update my local source code.
Expect Alpha 3 in the next 4 to 5 days.

Hello,
Thanks for the work to port Kitkat on the Galaxy Player.
Until a more stable version, is it possible to install ClockworkMod 6 and keep the stock rom (2.3.6) ?
This will permit to root the device by flashing superSu from ClockworkMod ?

Sorry but this isn't possible and will end in a soft brick.

Thanks @Quentinga & @Androthan, you saved me from making a stupidity
I keep an eye on this rom and will test soon.

Does music/video playback work on Alpha 2 ? (not able to use the sdcard space and Apollo crash everytime)
Phone feature is enable like in CM 7.2, or it's disable? (It is)
EDIT: (07/06/2014)
1) If the player is plugged in and switch it off, it will restart.
If, however, is not connected, then turns off simply.
2) In alpha2 there isn't the performance menu in option.
