Hi, I have struggled for several hours now and really could use some help please.
I have a Viewpad 10e which is not an officially supported device with Google. I have installed the only custom rom out there from Sidenk - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320592&page=41
There is no contact/people icon on there. I used to have this working with the market apk on the stock ICS rom last year but due to a recent upgrade from Viewsonic that stuffed my system so I had to reinstall. I cannot for the life of me think how I did it but I've downloaded loads of different packages relating to googlecontactssyncadapter.apk, contacts.apk and contactsprovider.apk. Some of them install but do nothing, some of them say the package cannot be parsed, some say there's a conflicting signature.
At this stage I have no idea what to do, I've downloaded loads of files, spent hours searching on google, read lots of different forums too. This device is not well supported and I have no idea where I'm going wrong so any help is very much appreciated.
I take it by no replies I've asked an awkward question
Can anyone point me in the right direction of where I should be looking if people cannot help here please?
No takers at all?
probably no oone knows the answer because the device isnt officially supported

Thanks but that's not the issue I'm having. The stock rom doesn't have Google contacts/people on it and never has. The custom rom never has. When I had the original gingerbread rom I managed to put on Google marketplace and contacts app on it. Later when ICS came out I managed to do it again.
Viewpad then released an auto update that kept nagging until I hit install. Then that wouldn't let me root so I went back to the custom rom Sidenk developed (he states set device as Asus Eeepad in his post to get more compatible apps on play). I thought all I had to do was update this with contacts.apk and googlecontactssyncadapter.apk but every version I have tried to install has come up 'application not installed' or unable to parse.
I know this device is capable of having contacts as I've done it before but I'm blown if I know how to now?
This has been driving my noodle potty for days now and I'd love some advice on what's likely to be going wrong :laugh:
Well I'm stumped. Been reading up on this area for days now and cannot get anywhere. Can no-one help at all?

it sounds like this app will do the same thing https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=adaptive.cogid&hl=en

Thanks, yes that app would be cool, but trying to download it says "not compatible with your device"

I am using the AT&T version of the phone in India. My phone is sim unlocked and other than it is stock. What is the easiest and simplest way for me to enable hotspot. I'll prefer not to root.
I tried searing the forums but only found Mods for rooted phones.
I used to use pdanet befire i went custom rom. You need to download the PDAnet.apk, you can find it here, http://pdanet.co/ , and install to phone. If it gives you a data limit that is not enough for you, you can buy full version of foxfi from playstore. I would check in to see if anything changed though

I reckon you can just reflash with official firmware to get back.
As a side question where did you find the recovery and custom firmware? I'm planning to do that to mine but cant find the thing anywhere.
Having the same issue With my watch Even i have tried flashing Stock firmware using odin But No Fruit.

Don't root your watch if you don't ready to lost it. I root it, flash cm 12.1. End up loop restart and below screen portion not response to touch anymore. Try to repair it at Samsung center, they not accept it and ask to change mother board first

It's a phone for poor schmucks like me, so no one care much
Sad
Im sad this phone is nice and all but.. A custom rom would speed it up so much kinda need root access to begin. I can port a rom myself but the actual process of a root i know and love has failed me. Would love an outside opinion... Maybe someone will respond?

Damn, they are quite sensitive. At least they now know it exists. It seems we will have to wait for a month or two before it is ready.

I found what appears to be a stock rom, but as a new member I can't link it.
It shows up as the first google result when I search "lg firmware list m151", hopefully that's enough for you to find it?
I found the firmware all ready thank you

Yes sir
This link will help you get started but much more research and trial and error will be needed/done to get it working (never give up!). You can use any source code that you desire but that YouTube video will help you get setup with the basics. If you need any more assistance I'm here to help good sir
