First you need one more thing - a reason for the ROM. Do you want a ROM that runs faster? One with more space for apps? One with some particular function not in the stock ROM? What functions aren't important to you (in case the particular custom ROM doesn't include them)?

Flashing a custom ROM just to have a custom ROM is like cutting your finger off just to see what's inside it - the pain isn't worth the gain. The first thing that happens when you flash a ROM is that the warranty is void. The second is that you risk turning the tablet into a plastic box full of parts that don't do anything.

And the final problem you face is that there usually arn't any custom ROMs for those cheap Chinese, "make a thousand, then go into the artificial flower business" Android devices. There aren't enough of any single model to bother spending the time and effort on. Most people don't flash custom ROMs, so if a ROM developer spends 6 months developing a ROM for a $150, 3 generation old tablet, and one or two people install it, he wasted $200 and 6 months. Don't expect to find custom ROMs for anything made in Shenzhen, not even "Samsung Note 4" phones (which aren't Samsung, and are somewhere around Note 1 technology, but not as good, running a non-standard version of Android).

first of all thank you Rukbat for your fast response
i really do appreciate your effort
and taking the time to write your comment
it was clear and full of wisdom

well . why i need a custom rom
to be honest i am new to using tablets
when i first bought my tablet i thought that i can update it
i didn't pay any attention to its version .
its might be dumb thing to do ^__^
well i learned from my mistakes
and i'll be more careful when i decide to buy a new device next time
anyway .
when i bought my device it was 4.0.1
i clicked on update and its now 4.0.4
but it's so limited in everything
even the look , i don't really like it
i am generally new to android platform
i heard that i can update my android version to kitkat for example
using a custom rom . i don't know how but i liked the idea if its possible at all

i am a professional motion graphic designer
so we do care about performance and the looks ^^ so much
so is there amy way to update my tablet into a more fashion version of android
using custom rom for example ? android jelly bean or kitkat
thank you so much . you are so kind

Android code is available as a free open source project, your best bet would be to teach yourself how to make your own ROM!
