Dear god no, do not recommend a new user Fidelizer roms

@WitzyZed, to install the kernal but keep stock FW (currently on standard ota FW1.2.5) do I still have to follow the instructions to restore stock FW or just start following your instructions from this bit?

Next we've got to install the TWRP (Custom Recovery) loader.

Yep, you're good to start from TWRP portion of the steps!

*edit*

only useful thing (to note) might be this little blurb from the firmware part:

Hold down the “Previous Track” rocker button (the one closest to the volume dial) with your player powered down and connect the micro USB cable from your computer to your player.
-You should have heard a connection chime, and your player's screen and blue LED should both remain off. The player is now in the "bootloader" mode
-If holding the Previous Track rocker button has not achieved desired effect, please re-attempt but instead hold the Pause Button when connection to USB cable. If then successful, use this method on subsequent steps requiring bootloader mode.
