Firefox requires at least Android 4.1. With Max Carta, you can try the beta version of Android 4.4 from here -> https://ereader.store/en/content/6-software-updates

Look at the bottom of the page. The firmware update process is reversible as long as you follow the instructions carefully and use the MFG tool and backup all the data first.

If you don't want to try beta firmware, then consider using the lightning browser - it should work with android 4.0.4. It has a high contrast mode, which works well with eink devices.
