How to Install Nougat based CM14 on LG G2 Mini

The LG G2 Mini is a long forgotten device by LG and will never get the Android 7.0 Nougat update officially from the Korean manufacturer. But thanks to the folks over at xda, who just released an unofficial build of CM14 for G2 Mini.

This is an alpha release ROM and might not be suitable for every day usage. Check all details about the ROM below, along with downloads and installation instructions.
