root your phone first and install CWM recovery (6.0.4.4 or latest recovery is recommended)
then you can flash any ROM
*remember to BACKUP your phone !
It's a bit more than that.
Please look in the spinx threat in the android development section.

Install freegee app from store and afterwards CWM with freegee.
To win some time look at post number 150 in the threat i mentionned.
There you find links to the files that are needed (the rom, the kernel, twrp and the prop file).

My personal way to get KK on E986 :
0 - Put all needed Files on external SDCard (Rom-TWR-Kernel-Prop file)
1 - With Freegee : Save a copy of EFS Files and put in safe location (not on the internal memory of the phone)
2 - With Freegee : Install CWM
3 - Reboot in recovery (CWM)
4 - With CWM - Backup : Make a full backup of phone on external SD
5 - With CWM - Wipe : Perform Wipe/Factory Reset - Wipe Data - Clean Dalvik
6 - With CWM : Install Zip : Select downloaded rom file from SDCard1 and install. If you see a error message, then look for the "Toggle LOKI" menu and flash the rom file again until no error appears.
7 - With CWM : Reboot in recovery
8 - With CWM : Install Zip : Select downloaded TWR file from SDCard1 and install.(twrp-2.6.1.0-E980-lokified-...)
9 - With CWM : Reboot in recovery
10 - Now CWM is gone and you have TWR environement.
11 - With TWR : Install Zip : Select downloaded Madmarks Kernel zip file and install (kk-e980-stock-lg-by-...).
12 - With TWR : Reboot in recovery
13 - With TWR : Install Zip : Select dowwloaded Prop zip file (build-prop-rev06...
13b - With TWR : Install Zip : SuperSU from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
14 - With TWR : Wipe : Perform factory reset and format data.
15 - Reboot System (i choosed to fix root)
16 - Reboot takes a while .... but should end with a welcome screen.
Be Aware :
- There are diferences between version 14.4.14 and 20.4.14 (latest) of the rom.
- Spinx Radeonmaya is a modded version of original korean rom.
- You loose all your data on internal memory
- Your phone does not identify as E986 anymore.
- I could not install the rom with twrp
- The kernel must be installed with rtwrp
- Madmarks Kernel is needed for SDCard recognition ;
- The prop file is needed for settings of E98X devices
- LG TTS (text to speech) has no european languages behalve english)

with step 6 i get the verification error over and over again
what must i do??
i get the message install untrusted zip, when i hit ok, the installation is aborted
Sorry to hear that.
On the first time; i had the same error as you. I went in advanced and selected "toggle loki support" and went back to flash the zip again (a second time) and had no error anymore.
Well if it doesn't help, there seems to be a other version of CWM here which should work.
Look in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2691967&page=26. It's the file recovery6.0.44_E98X_V2.zip.
I hope your backup is functional !!

gonna try it
btw i changed the name of the rom to update.zip too. hopefully that will do itit worked~!! thank u so much!
do i need to flash a modem/ baseband or anything for the netherlands?
Happy i could help.
I have a German device and i didn't have to flash modem.
You only have to create the apn settings manually.
Please check if you can call somebody and hear something. I had to re-flash the prop file to get audio in phone calls.
And the speaker bug is present on my device.
Nevertheless i eager wait for the official update of our device.
