LG has already launched the highly anticipated Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the G2. However, the OS came out with so many issues like poor battery life, bugs, glitches and occasional crashes.
If you are a G2 user, you don’t have to be upset by this because there is a way to fix the issues. The solution is with Rahsed97’s custom ROM that can be found on XDA.
The custom ROM is developed strictly for the G2 D800, 801, D802, LS980 and VS980 variants. Also, the custom ROM contains the newer Android 5.0.2 Lollipop OS.
You don’t have to worry about the custom ROM because it is already in its stable built and there are no major issues with it. All you have to do is download the ROM at XDA and refer to the steps below.
