was just curious if anyone else had tried this. i purchased it, but it has no access to google play, so i can't get the RA Status app. i'm sure i could get it and put it on a mini-sd card and install like that (most likely will do that) but was wondering if there was an easier way i was missing.

thanks

Can you root it and put cyanomodgen? I have rooted other tablets but not sure if the guys at xda has one for this....

You can download the apk directly from a url.
I just can't remember the url :(
Curt would be able to tell you.

The URL is here:
http://curtbinder.info/apps/

It's got a list of ALL the previous APKs for the status app.
Here's the direct link to the latest APK: http://curtbinder.info/apps/AndroidStatus-0.9.4.apk

Thanks! I will give that a try later. It's really a dumbed down tablet. Not much in the way of program availability, but hopefully I can sideload the app. Not exactly how to install the .apk on this little guy (Proscan 4311)

To install an apk, just click the apk link above. When it finishes, it will notify you that it finished. If you tap that notification, it will start installing automatically.

easy as pie. however, the screen resolution is so small that you can't see much info at once, so i don't know if i will use it or not. either way, thanks so much for the help, and at least i know i have an option for it!
