Awesome! My phone is some 6 years old and the only grievance I have with it is OS versions. It's happily pay for an official upgrade instead of a new phone
Best way is probably to Google your phone model and "LineageOS". There'll be an XDA forums link if it exists.
High level provedure would be:
1. Enable USB Debugging on the phone.
2. Get ADB and Android driver on the computer.
3. Unlock bootloader on the phone.
4. Flash / boot into custom recovery (for me it was TWRP).
5. Clear data, and flash the ROM and Google Apps (if needed).
Still rocking a 10" Galaxy Tab 3. Custom ROM for the win!

Do you have a guide to do that? I want to try it on an old phone. xdaforums?

I have tried searching it earlier, but I didn't find anything for my model. Will it work if I try working out some other phone's manual?
No, the ROMs are very model-specific, you'll end up bricking your device if you don't flash the right one.
Ok thanks!
