I have this tablet and have been able to add the Play Store, Google apps. I also over/underclocked. It also bugged me the screen resolution was set too high that tablet optimized apps didn't work. So I added a build.prop tweak to get the tablet looking like it should. All the files needed and a tutorial are here:

EDIT: Just noticed that on 10/22 the D2 website uploaded a full firmware for us to flash. This is good news. Means we should be able to try a bunch of hacks on this without fear of killing it. I will try to get CWR working soon. Then some kind of CM10 rom.

You don't have to no. You can flas it before or after. It will work on all firmwares.

Erron So i have tried to update firmware but cant get the drivers to load and doesnt work manually and have tired your drivers also. I tried to run the file in the diablotek fixer but still doesent recognize the device. when i get home tonight i will try the manual method in your readme. I have even downloaded the firmware 4 times still no go. if you have any ideas let me know please. it may just be this comp. I have put in a ticket with support wait int to see what they say. Win 7 amd my d2pad is the 08 model

The drivers for the firmware update will be different than the USB drivers. Chances are it's just the computer. Was the computer recognizing the tablet going into flash mode at all?

I took my D2 back to Big Lots and got a new one because the old one had some wifi issues. Instead of using the method I posted to install google play I tried installing the drivers and then running the script. It worked well except the script Runme has a bug in it, it can not find the file build.prop to change the appearance of the icons etc.
The line:
adb push "ICS\build.prop" /system
needs to be changed to
adb push "build.prop" /system
or build.prop must be copied to ICS directory.
