Problem installing Play Store on Android phone from China

Hi. I bought an Android smartphone from China, SHY-S77, via DX.com. Being from China, it doesn't have Play Store. I've tried to install the APK several ways, even after rooting the device, but it still won't install. Can somebody PLEASE help? How can i get Google's Play Store on my SHY-S77?

You can find my exact phone by going to DX(dot)com and searching for SHY-S77.

I hope somebody can help! THanks!

There's the Amazon app store too, in the meantime. Good luck.

You probably can't, since you also need Google Play Services and a few other little things. As mrsmumbles said, use the Amazon App Store. Same apps, same prices, same free ones.

Yes. Google was disabled there by government. Amazon Appstore is an alternative.
