What you should do as 1st thing of all things
1. Find a matching Custom ROM (of your choice) suitable to this tablet
2. If found then find a Custom Recovery suitable for this tablet

What you should do then
1. Flash Custom Recovery
2. Flash Custom ROM via Custom Recovery
Seeing how he couldn't quite figure out how to even root the device, he probably will need to be guided (or at least pointed towards reading & learning how) to unlocking his bootloader to flash a custom ROM.....
might be tricky as he stated that there wasn't a section for it on the site; I personally haven't checked and confirmed this.....

It'll be considered if OP does go the route of installing/flashing a custom ROM or recovery....

If not or until then, these questions are (or can be construed as) "General" (or more precisely generic or not-quite-specified)...
is there any way to make it a little more updated? ... or where would I get APPs for his version? I'm going to use a lot to work, excel, pdf, word and the like,

Será considerado se o OP seguir o caminho de instalação/flash de uma ROM personalizada ou recuperação....

Se não ou até então, essas questões são (ou podem ser interpretadas como) "Gerais" (ou mais precisamente genéricas ou não exatamente especificadas) ...
Onde eu saberia mais sobre?

o tablet reiniciou e entrou em modo de recuperação, agora não sei o que fazer

@Santorini_imob, I have already reminded you of the rules previously in this very thread to post in English. Consider this your last friendly reminder.


As for the inquiry in the quoted post, I'm not sure what can be done in recovery mode for that device. After looking into it (your device, custom rom, root) a bit, it seems that while many obscure older Android tablet/devices are capable of installing custom ROMs to revitalize them (which is why jwoegerbauer suggested it and I concurred), it does not seem your device can/is capable. It looks like the best you can do is root the device. With rooting, you can maybe find some apps or modules that tweak frequencies (like a custom kernel, but in a very limited fashion) or particular settings that might improve the user experience (speed). There are some settings even in Developer Mode that makes the UI "snappier" (by lowering or eliminating "window animation") -- although I'm unsure if that option is there for KitKat/Android4.
Using the search function (at the top of the page), it does shows a couple of threads discussing how to root the device -- beware that it also seems many users have bricked the device attempting so as well; please do your proper research if you decide to attempt it.

I'm sorry, I thought I copied what was in English. Thanks for the guidance
