Thanks gagas1 for the following root and Google install

1. Download this

2. Extract it in your desktop.

3. Open folder PC and install adb drivers.

4. Connect your phone to pc in debugging mode.

5. Open folder PC/Root and double click Runme.bat and choose normal mode. When your phone prompts for restore just press restore and let it reboot.

6. Put the contents from folder SdCard to your sdcard.

7. On your phone open file manager and Install mobileuncle apk and open it. In the menu press <recovery update> and find the recovery file in your sdcard. Install.

8. When the phone reboots open mobileuncle and near the bottom click on <Into Recovery Mode>. You should have CWM 6.0.2.8.

9. When in CWM choose Backup/Restore and restore the <Default> backup.

Also now the phone is on amazon we might get a case and screen protector. Overall is not a bad phone for the money. The downer is the screen quality.
