Notes :
1. In order to use PlayStore, you must connect to WIFI or 2G/3G first after installation of rom or else you wont be able to open the playstore. But if you cant connect any connection, then go to settings/phone/performance/google services switch and untick the Google Play Store, first time may get force close after unticked it but dont worry, go to the same place again and you will see the google play store didnt unticked so unticked it again.
