99% chance you have an HDC.
To fix all of your problems, including google play, you will need a complete backup of the firmware.
Ideally, you will not have to do all of this as you will find out (as pointed out by the poster above) exactly what you have in advance.
Once you have a good backup, get yourself to needrom. Look for the HDC clones that are just like yours with MTK6589. Just be aware that these phones can also contain a dual core processor, so if none of the 6589 ROMs work, and you don't know what you have, you may need to continue with dual cores.
At this point, you will also want to find a SIGNED version of gapps12, assuming you want your google play services to work.
Now, hopefully through this process you will discover a ROM that works perfectly. If you do, then mark it for future reference.
Now, you will want to nuke your phone with the ROM that works and install gapps12
BEFORE the phone boots. Do your setup as normal and you should be good to go.
It is time consuming, but not that hard if you do your research first.
Just remember that if you decide to go on this quest, get your phone to detect 100% (no hardware errors or unknown devices of any kind) on your computer. Have gapps12 already downloaded, have your ROM(s) already downloaded, have a notebook listing exactly what you are doing and which files have/have not worked.
Don't forget to post a follow-up!
