Hello my name is Soder .
This Thread will hopefully help you install Android Market and some Google Apps that are unavailable on Google play .


This is working on my Maxell Maxtab H10 .


Here are the specs

This device was shipped without Android Market / Google play .
Even when connecting to Google play through a browser i was unable to download most apps , Example.
upgrade to Google play store , Google Maps , IMDb, Instagram , Chrome Browser and several more were not available .
Most apps on Google play were not even visible or when they were visible and i tried to install them , it gave me an " Unsupported device error " MID tablet


IMHO this Android 4.1.1 tablet without Google Store is worthless . So i had to get this up and running , and i managed to get the Android Market and a few other Google apps installed and running .


NO ROOT NEEDED


Follow these 10 easy steps that worked for me .


1: Hard reset your tablet ( Back to stock )


2: Start your tablet ( Dont sign into any mail , or start any apps )


3: Go to Settings>System Settings>Security and tick the box "Unknown Sources"
(Allowing installation of apps from unknown sources )


4: Connect your tablet to you PC with supplied USB cable


5: Download these files to your desktop Download Link
( there should be 4 files , Named 1,2,3,4 )


6: after downloading the above files, transfer them to your tablets SDcard .
(If you have come this far i think you know how to transfer files to your tablets SDcard )


7: No that the files are on your tablet .Use your tablets stock file browser/App installer and navigate to the files on your SDcard .


8: VERY IMPORTANT . Install each file starting with #1 then 2 , 3 and then 4 . After installing each file you will be presented with "Done " or "open " window .
click done . after installing the last file #4 dont click done or open . press the tablets power button and hold it to reboot your tablet .


9: Once it has been rebooted you should see a window asking how you would like to open this file . Click "LAUNCHER" and click always.


10: Go to your apps drawer and find Market and launch it . you should now be able to login with your google account and start using the Android Market .

NOTE . one problem i have found is that you tubes latest update gives and error . . i dont know why . but i have found that using youtube without the latest update it works just fine .

If everything worked a charm . then i have added these files below that were still unavailable on the Market .

How to install these files below .
Mail them to yourself and open the mail on your tablet .
and just click install .

Download link for files below


Chrome_18_0_1025469play.apk ( Chrome Browser , Latest version )as of 2013/01-16
Google_Maps_6_14_2.apk ( Google Maps , Latest version )as of 2013/01-16
IMDb_Movies_amp_TV_3_1_1_103110510.apk ( IMDb , Latest version )as of 2013/01-16

I really hope that this has helped someone out there !

Cheers

This did not work for me either. I was unable to reset the tablet. After pressing the reset button with a pin, the tablet starts over without any changes from before. My email accounts are intact and all the files I had previously downloaded from my PC are there. I don't know if this the reson for not being able to complete the above described steps, but when I try to install the first app I get the following error message:
App not installed
An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed.
If anyne has any ideas how to make thiw work, please tell!
Even information on rooting the device, if nothing else works, would be greatly appreciated.
