2016 UPDATE:
I HAVE IDENTIFIED IT MYSELF: The Mainboard is T733-MAINBOARD-V2.1
Firmware can be downloaded from here:

You will need to install the following first:
1. http://universaladbdriver.com/wp-content/uploads/universaladbdriver_v3.0.zip
2. https://androiddatahost.com/wp-content/uploads/15_Second_ADB_Installer_v1.4.3.zip
After reflash, you will need to install Play store, because Android market cannot connect.
Google Play store from here:

I'm still looking for recovery.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Hi all, Could you help me identifying a chinese/korean tablet and help getting a custom recovery onto it.
The tablet is bought here in the Philippines as SAMSUNG GALAXY Tab 3, I got it from my GF who swapped her old phone in a market in Manila, for this one - Seller claimed original(as usual).
Model
FCC ID: A3LGTP1000 RATED: 5V=2A
MADE IN KOREA
CE0168
Se photos below
I used SpecDevice to pull all the info I could of the tablet and its in the provided link - I can't post it here or the thread will be too large, so please follow the link http://specdevice.com/showspec.php?id=f475-9a5c-3a0b-df1d2dfafbec
Now, I know this tablet is NOT original SAMSUNG Tab 3, I have been living in the Philippines long enough to know a fake when I see one - but its damn good copy - Except for a few things:
It has:
Boxchip Allwinner A13 Singlecore 1Ghz
512MB Ram
Storage according to the Partition table APP:
/system: 504MB(463MB used),
/data: 1008MB(494MB used),
/cache: 315MB(5MB used),
/mnt/extsd: 30021(8772MB used) - this is the external SD card of 32MB,
/mnt/sdcard: 1401(172MB used)
adding the storage space up gives 3228MB which would mean this tab has approx. 4GB Rom. According to seller it should have 8GB(so again something fake). In settings>storage it says:
INTERNAL STORAGE:
Total space: 0.98GB - Apps:440MB - Available: 503MB
------------------------------------------------
Then something strange
INTERNAL STORAGE
Total space: 5.63GB - Apps: 110MB - Pictures, videos: 3.40MB - Audio: 3.22MB - Downloads: 1.15MB - Available: 5.48GB
--------------------------------------------------------
And strange again
EXTSD
Total space: 5.63GB - Available: 5.48GB
--------------------------------------------------------
I think this info is from the buildprop and that its fake, but I'm no expert in tablets - so need your help on this one - how to set it correctly?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Something else, this one comes with ICS installed, and in About tablet it says android version 4.2.1 - all that is written on the SpecDevice page, just follow the link above.
What I need from you Guys/Galls is a way to identify this tablet and get help to put custom recovery on it, either CWM or TWRP.
It has stock recovery but it can only be accessed by Settings>Backup and reset> Reboot to recovery - If I try the Power and Vol+ I get tilted green android with red exclamation mark, and I have tried all combinations of buttons that I could find on the net. I need custom recovery before I start modifying it, or there is no way to reflash it, if something goes wrong - Please help me with this
Cpu Identifier(By Davy Bartoloni) tells me this:

More info: Screen size 7.0 Inches
Supported frequency states: 29
NEON capable (fast video playback)
Ram memory module: 512 Mb DDR (Usable 353 Mb)

Going to the page for GPU:
Real inches: 7.0"
GPU: Mali-400 MP

Going to android device page:
Device: T733
Declared PCB: nuclear
Compiled for:
Product: nuclear_evb
Code name: nuclear-evb
OS version: 4.2.1(Jelly Bean)
Battery level: 98%
Flash memory: 1,007 MB
free flash memory: 502 MB
battery temperature: 30.0 C
Kernel compiled on 'gtide' workstation by user: fwj (build 20130627)
Going to Bogomips page:
Processor: ARMv7 Processor rev. 2 (v7I)
Bogomips: 1001.88
CPU implementer: 0x41
CPU Architecture: 7
CPU variant: 0x3
CPU part: 0xc08
Cpu revision: 2
Hardware: sun5i
Revision: a13b
Serial: this is very long and I don't know if you guys need it
EDIT: Some immidiate problems I could use some help with, the screen size is 800x480 but when in ES file explorer I can't see the full text of pop-up boxes, and have to turn the tablet upside down in order to catch a glimpse of OK or other buttons(to the right). Kind of annoying when having to set /system to R/W.
I think it has to do with the screen itself being 7" but widescreen style, and its not set correctly somewhere. As you can see above in CPU identifier, it says its "software inches: 5.00".
Just found out the screen is 800 x 432 and not 800 x 480 - that could explain why ES File explorer have a problem.
I used this tool: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sturnus.screeninfo
And this tool https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xizz.resolutioninfo which told me that the screen is actually not 7" nor 5.8" as SpecDevice said, but in reality 5.7".
Now, somewhere in the system files something is written wrong - how do I fix it?
This is starting to be a very long thread, so if there is any other info you guys need then just ask
Hope you can help me
With kind regards
JBJ
EDIT: The tablet is pre-rooted, it just needed me to install SuperSU and busybox(Stericsson).
