Hello and welcome to Android Forums.



Samsung products use a tool called Odin to make low-level software changes. Nothing happens to your tablet unless Odin pushes an update. If you are not running Odin from your PC, with USB cable attached, you cannot push an update.


Be more careful when powering on: the only way to access recovery mode is through a specific button sequence during boot-up.
