Step Number 3 : Upgrade your android version :
By upgrading I mean way more than just upgrade your android device, I mean installing custom roms, that mean's you can make your device UI look like google nexus, pixel, xiaome, apple and more, just the point is you should find your rom for your specific device model; sometime it's hard sometime it's easy
First you need to find rom zip file and the GApps that compatible with your rom and your device, download it and put it on to your internal storage of phone.
Tip number 3: never ever try to install roms that made for other device.
Tip number 4: for finding roms just search the xda website.
Tip number 5: allways try to install the roms that has official status or stable.
Tip number 6: if I was you I download at lest two rom so if the first one don't work I install the second one.( beware first install one and go through the process all the way down to last picture and if that does not work then restart step 3 and try the second rom);
The installation is really easy just go to recovery
