How to Install CM13 Custom ROM on LG Optimus G and Update to Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS

  1. From your computer access this page and download the CM 13 firmware file; then go here and get compatible Google Apps.
  2. Save both files on desktop.
  3. Establish an USB connection between your smartphone and your computer.
  4. Next, transfer the downloaded files from desktop, on your phone.
  5. Afterwards, unplug the USB cord as the computer is no longer needed.
  6. Now you have to power off your device; do so.
  7. Then, enter recovery mode on your LG Optimus G.
  8. Once in recovery, choose to make the wipe; so, select “wipe data factory reset”, “wipe cache partition” and “wipe dalvik cache”.
  9. Go back to main menu of recovery and tap on Install.
  10. Pick the Android 6.0 Marshmallow file and the Google Apps package.
  11. Resume the flashing process by following on screen prompts.
  12. When done, from main menu of recovery choose “reboot system now”.
