Personally I wouldn't be modifying any new android phone and wouldn't do 
modification unless I had at least two android phones.  I don't know 
that the directions will work so would have a used experimental phone 
available for such modification.
If I get any more android in future it will have a nexus label on it; 
maybe samsung on a bad day but never LG ever again, LG takes way too 
long to update operating systems.
