How do i install CM7 on my phone. I'm rooted i have Flash ClockworkMod Recovery installed and everything. so eh how do i do it. Sorry i don't use the search button and you're more than welcome to flame.
 
Which version of ClockworkMod recovery? 3.2.0.0 is difficult, best to use 3.1.x.x or xionia recovery.

After that, download the aospCMod zip file to your sdcard, and the gingerbread gapps, then reboot into recovey by turning off your phone then holding the home_key+volume_down+power till the lg logo goes way.

Once in recovery, choose backup/restore and then create a backup. Back in the main menu choose wipe cache, under advanced wipe dalvik cache, under mounts format boot, system, data, and cache. The back in the main menu choose install from sdcard, then choose zip from sdcard, select the aospCMod zip file, then do the same with the gapps zip file.

Back at the main screen, choose reboot system now, it will take a long time, be patient, it has to rebuild all the files.
