WiFi b or g, GSM 2G or 3G. It can be an access point, allowing you to distribute 3G Internet to 5 devices via WiFi.
No WiFi configuration issues were detected. However, like all Android devices, Ad-Hock connections are not supported (patch possible).
3G also usually does not require settings, however, Beeline for USB modems uses non-standard APN. If the SIM card is taken from a Beeline modem, you need to edit the APN.
Adhoc connection. Directly to the computer.
Instructions for Windows XP, for Win7 the actions are similar.

There is a pre-installed Docunents To Go, a standard email client allows you to tolerably use mail on the way. A menagerie of browsers is available. Flash support not. Terminals, command line, for example, ConnectBot, graphic - TeamViewr, the rest have problems with switching the keyboard language.

Almost all navigation programs for Android are launched, but be prepared that some of them can gobble up all the internal memory.
Skin for Navitel 5.0.3.70 from Dragg

The device is universal, not PSP! therefore, saw the announcement of a beautiful, 3-dimensional dynamic toy, do not rush to buy it. Some games are going well, some are just wonderful, some are starting, but you need to dance a tambourine dance and choose the right version of the game and the right cache to enjoy the game. Some do not start at all.
Here is a link tolist of games that go well on ViewPad 7
Still smalladdition
Star legends
Couple of games
Three games

The device is universal. The processor manages to decode the films, but does not manage to throw the stream onto such a large screen. However, ViewSonic engineers found a solution. Good, bad, but working. On board is a hardware video decoder. The decoder supports MPEG4 Video (H264) 720x400 25.00fps and AAC 44100Hz stereo 1411Kbps [Audio]. Everything else can be ATTEMPT to look through software players, however, most likely nothing will turn out.

Converted video not only allows you to comfortably watch a movie without jerking and delays, but also get a size less than 4 GB, and watching a movie with a hardware decoder allows you to view a couple of pieces on a single battery charge. And software decoding will consume the battery in one movie.

Disassembly
Understands quite difficult. Think a few times before disassembling!
Here is a description of the disassembly process + photo from the inside
Reboot
If the tablet freezes during operation and does not respond to the buttons, then you can take a paper clip or needle and press the reset button through the hole.
If the tablet does not load, a hard reset may help. Hard rezet is done from recovery mode (on the switched off device, hold down both volume buttons and press the power button), a full reset will occur andall user information and files will be deleted . The device will become naked as from a store.
Manufacturing defects . Only one thing was noticed - spontaneous operation of the touch keys. It is treated by contacting the service, or by exchange with the seller. According to rumors, to prevent re-manifestation (and for prevention), you can turn off the vibration feedback.
If there is a root, then the problemmenu button operation can be solved programmatically. Instructions here .
Charging. If you look closely at the regular charge, then it uses an expanded version of mini USB, not 5 contacts, as usual, but 10. There must be 2 conditions for a quick charge of the tablet.

1. The maximum current issued by the charger must be at least 1 ampere
   
2. The mini USB cable through which it is charging must have 10 connectors
   

Failure to fulfill one of these conditions dramatically increases the charging time or even allows you to only slow down the discharge.
My experience has shown that when using a tablet in a car only as a navigator, without a registrar, a sufficiently powerful charger and an ordinary cord. The tablet does not discharge below 50%, but usually charges up to 100. Dradd went the other way and made a universal device from a USB cable and a standard charger.Read here. Well, the most radical option is a car inverter.
For those who are friends with a soldering iron -what and how to solder in the connector.

mini USB port of our animal supports OTG function, which loosely translated means the USB On-The-Go Host or Russian, etc., switching in host mode on the control terminal. If you examine the pinout connector, between pins 3 and 4 there is another 5-s touch X, it allows a USB device to understand what mode it work. Drive port in the host mode can be hooked contact 4 and contact X, that is, by closing it on the ground. As in nature, there are adapters factory, we should look at this word perhodnike OTG, or On-The-Go. Through this adapter you can connect a mouse, claves or USB drive (if the power is enough). The disc must be in FAT32, NTFS that would connect will have to sweat. Attached disk will have to go somewhere in the mnt / media / disk

1. Delete all unnecessary.
2. Transfer everything you need and what is possible to the SD card: Go to application management, then poke third-party applications and see if the button is active to transfer to SD, if it is active, then click it.
3. All deleted, all that could be transferred, still not enough. Then we stock up with patience, a shamanic tambourine, garlic and other attributes of the wizard. To transfer almost any program to the SD card, third-party programs are used, for example, A2SD +. However, to use it, you need to prepare an SD card.Here is a description of one way. I advise you to take a card no lower than 6th grade. Well, do not be surprised if, when pulling out a card, the system is, let's say, inoperative.

And here’s another radical way to add internal memory:
