Before you start let me make it clear that, I don't own this device or don't have any connection with it. I put this thread only because my friend from Chandigarh, India requested me to do a guide on customizing this device. So, I collected information from members related to this device & from other forums.
The Roms listed here are not my works, so it may or may not work with your device. I tried my level best to make it as simple as it can.
ROOTING
First of all, you need to Root your device.
Use Universal Androot, you can download the software here
Use Root Explorer or any file management softwares to install.
Now download the Rom Manager and install it.
RECOVERY MENU
Next you need to Install the stock Recovery Menu.
The complete procedure as well as the required files can be downloaded here.
Just downloaded & extract the file and follow the steps.
CUSTOMIZED RECOVERY
This Recovery Menu can only install update.zip files.
So, it need to be modified to install any custom rom.
You can download the custom Recovery here
Extract the file, Use Android Download Tool provided in the package to install.
Select only the Recovery option and flash the device with it.
Now reboot into recovery you can see a new recovery menu with options to install any zip file.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR DEVICE
Currently only a few customized roms are available.
Customized CyanogenMod Rom
This Rom is tested several times and 100% working. You can download it here.

i try this method working but twrp this time is error status 6. ( my english bad
do you have wkpark custom bootloader?
Well, it's actually really simple. i just got the same problem and recently just successfuly installed it.
The Steps(This only works if you use ics rom with wkparks 1.25 bootloader):
1. change the bootloader. Install the GB bootloader.
2. install cwm/twrp recovery for GB (these two easy steps can be done easily with OS_HACKING Tools v1.2)
3. factory reset(do any other wipe if you want)
4. install. after installation, when you reboot, you'll get stuck on lg logo. that's OK. to the next step.
5. install the wkparks 1.25 bootloader(again, this is easy with OS_HACKING Tools v1.2)
6. reboot and (if it works) enjoy!
That's all. Hope that was helping.
Sorry for the english.(-_-')

2. The phone must be rooted
3. Any Stock/Custom kernel
Procedure-
-For Stock kernel

2. Extract the Firmware package whose kernel you want to flash there u will get boot.img file.
3. Copy that boot.img file to your SD card
4. Open UKF, Press "Select a Kernel Image (bin/img/md5)"
5. Select that boot.img file that you previously copied to your SDcard
6. Then Press 'Flash Kernel Image'

-For Custom Kernel

HIT THANKS IF YOU FIND IT USEFUL
