Now if I need to d/l the Play Store on my Ellipsis 7? Tablet, which 'version' of d/l would I choose??? I don't have WiFi but do have data.
A few days ago, I kept gettin' message that my messenger was out of date. Reluctantly, I decided to d/l a newer version.
It wouldn't let me do it. A 'friend' told me that she had the same pblm and that she had to uninstall her current one. So, like an idiot, I uninstalled it.only to STILL not b able to d/l the newer version.
After a couple hrs of hair pulling, I decided to call tech support at Verizon. AGAIN, I proved my desire to own the idiot award! The guy walked me through it.still unable to d/l ANY version of messenger. Then he has me tap this, tap that, tap on Google play store and tap on uninstall! My brain kept saying'Don't u do it', but my stylus tapped it anyways! Then the guy asks me to tap on Google play store!!!
And when I told him that it wasn't there anymore since he had me to uninstall it, he tells me to look n other places for it! So, as it stands, now I have no messenger, no Google play store and it seems I can't just d/l a messenger without the darn Play Store!!!
