3.Download custom rom like LineageOS or Resurrection remix whichever you feel good.
4.Boot to your recovery , wipe System data and install custom rom with Gapps.
5.Reboot and enjoy.
Follow these steps for flashing.
1) Download a ROM of your choice.
2) Connect your device to your PC using the USB cable.
3) Copy the Custom ROM.zip file from your Desktop over to the root of your SD card.
4) Turn OFF your device, and turn it back on by holding Volume Up and Power buttons together.

-1: too generic. The most important parts, i.e. unlocking bootloader and installing a custom recovery, are not mentioned at all. The Flashtool link, while useful, is only for stock ROMs and therefore irrelevant.– Andy YanCommented Mar 30, 2017 at 7:29
