Help with my tablet

[inkedup8510]

I got this android tablet in a trade for an older laptop,the issue is its a Chinese tablet that is more trouble than its worth. From what i found its a Gd ippo p706, it is a dual core 1.6 running android 4.2, 10 inch screen with 1 gig internal memory and an 8 gig internal sd card?

so the issue is it runs slower at times and the play store basically tells me to F- off every time i try to use it. So the questions i need help with is, can i install the kit kat firmware from designed for another crappy tablet to run on this? If not how can i fix the google play issue? it gives me errors saying it cant connect or errors saying cannot receive info... deleting my google account every time i want to download something is getting old quick! any help would be greatly appreciated!

Probably not without bricking it.

If not how can i fix the google play issue?

Chinese Androids can't access Play as far as I know. You'd have to make a few modifications to it or run an app like Market Helper.

Or you can look for an apk download for any app you want, download it, find it with a file manager (like MyFiles) and press it to install it.

Or use the Amazon store. They have about the same apps as Play now.

The thing is amazon gives me the same errors. I'll try market helper because so far the apk files are hit and miss

I have a 'Nextbook 8' tablet which is from some Chinese province and Play store works great on it.

Is the tablet's clock and calendar correct? If the date is wrong that stops both Play and Amazon working, because it causes a certificate or authentication problem.
