Once we bought a children's tablet L exibook® Tablet Master 2.I thought it would be nice for a child to have a tablet, but What would it had Android OS and was interesting and safe for the child. To be honest, I leave my review with slight disappointment. There's a lot there simple games, your own primitive browser, many programs, protection from surfing the Internet in search of bad sites.
Here comes the most interesting part, there you can only install programs from their own store. That is, there is no Google Play, and what's interesting even when You install it manually, it just doesn't work.
Google Play service is missing
Most likely, Google services are simply banned there. Their own store, unfortunately, does not have much variety useful programs, especially since there is almost nothing in Russian. Well, for some reason the program versions are quite backward. As an Internet search showed, this tablet is not the only one.
Apparently, manufacturers want to earn extra money in this way, supposedly relying on the safety of children. Like everything they have is safe, but unfortunately backward.

Theoretically you can get root access and find the hosts file because, more likely, there the Google address is banned. However, all this turned out to be quite difficult. So I took the simple route.
Finding Alternatives to Google Play
Nowadays there are quite a lot of services on the Internet and app stores that will help you install programs for Android without unnecessary problems replacing Google Play.
First, you need to choose a service, I’m listing the ones below, but there are others. If you have a favorite other, then write in the comments.
Yandex. Store
For example, Yandex. Store. Quite good service for installing applications.
However, it has several disadvantages. Not enough yet big choice programs and games. Often outdated versions programs. But the service may develop some day in the future he will become quite good.
1mobile
Ultimately I left my choice to excellent service 1mobile. The application store, in my opinion, contains all the programs from Google Play, they are installed without problems and are constantly updated.
Interestingly. On Google Play, I encountered a problem on one of my tablets that some programs were not installed. It says that the hardware or OS is not supported. However, from 1mobile these programs install and work without any problems. Thereby solving the problem of installing such tricky programs.
Installation process

Then download the program, run it, and you will have it installed third party program application store service. Using it, you will install any applications.

Click on it and accept the terms. Next, a window will open in which a payment method is offered. Select “Add credit/debit card”. You will see icons for the types of cards that can be added. For example, my credit card has the words MasterCard on it, and it is on the list. This means that the card is suitable for payment in the Play Market.
We enter all the data that is asked: card number, card expiration date and year, CVV code and full name. Thus, once you link your card to your Google account, you can always use it to make a purchase in the Market, but you won’t have to re-enter the data.
Settings

Why do you need Play Market on devices? With its help, games and programs are downloaded and installed on the device. Of course, you can download them from a browser or transfer them using removable media, but by using the play market, you insure yourself against malware and viruses. The most important argument is that you can constantly stay up to date with all the new products simply by launching the Google Store.
As a rule, all Android tablets come with Google's app store pre-installed. But there are a small number of devices that do not have it. For example, tablets from Amazon ( Kindle Fire) and series Chinese tablets. These tablets use their own magazines or from third party developers, which are interesting in their own way. True, they are not even close to the potential and capabilities of Google Market.

- no rights to install third-party applications;
- no Google services.

I quote Artem:
Hello. Please tell me at my android applications They download from the Google Play Market themselves without my knowledge. How can I fix this problem?
Hello. Probably, it’s not the applications themselves that are downloaded and installed, but updates? Because applications cannot be installed themselves; there are no viruses or other factors that would force the phone to install the application on its own. But updates may well download and install themselves. Automatic installation updates for installed applications turns off at the very Play Store e. That is, open the Play Store. Press the "Menu" button (located in the upper left corner of the screen - it looks like three horizontal stripes). After clicking on this button, a menu will appear in which you need to select “Settings”. There is an item “Auto-update applications” - select “Never”. If you do not want to receive availability emails available updates, then below, in the “Alerts” section, uncheck the “Availability of updates” and “Auto-update” lines. That's all.
More than a million applications, many films, music, books and even media publications - all this is in your pocket on your smartphone. A huge world of entertainment and information is available anywhere, at any time, as long as there is access to the Internet and all this is free. This was made possible thanks to Google service Play Market.
The Play Market was opened in 2012, replacing the old one, which was simply called Android Market. The changes affected not only the name, but also the interface, as well as the addition of new functions. In addition to the usual games and applications, a section with films, music, books and even the press has appeared. It is clear that Google really cares about its users and has made an excellent resource where everyone will find something to their liking.
The changes also affected the graphic side. The design has become much nicer, the colors are more saturated, and using the service has become much more convenient thanks to the new interface. It’s convenient to switch between tabs using swipes, and each section has its own color design, a small thing but nice. Page with specific application also began to look different. At the top, a colorful picture or video review stretches across the entire width.
In general, the new Play Market has become really convenient, but as we know, Google is planning to redesign the Market again in the near future. The changes are not so significant, but still noticeable. So, now the Install button has become larger in size, some elements have changed their position, and the color scheme has also changed.
