How to Install
1. Without Root
First of all unlock your bootloader through LG Developer Resources here (they have good step-by-step instructions). Back up your data in internal storage first!
Install ADB & Fastboot on your computer and make sure you have LG USB drivers installed.
Connect your phone to the PC via USB.
Open a command window in the folder where you’ve downloaded your recovery (Shift + RMB > ‘Open command window here’).
Confirm the connection by executing this command: adb devices
Next, reboot into fastboot mode: adb reboot-bootloader
Once your phone enters fastboot mode, type this: fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img
You can also temporarily boot into the custom recovery using this command: fastboot boot twrp-2.8.6.0-h815.img
After entering the recovery, you can flash SuperSU to gain root access.
2. Using TWRP Manager (Root)
