On page 11 of this thread there is a post by pata that quotes and links to a thread on reddit. As per the quote you need to open the App Store (the Hisense one that came with the phone). Within that app store you need to search for "google". One of the results will be "go-then mandarin language stuff" meaning there will be the English words "go-then" followed by some Chinese characters. You need to install this app and then open it and follow through the process that will "install some old, limited version of google services".

The post explains "One major reason to do it is that many apps need it for push services, including email and instant messaging apps like bluemail and telegram. I could install whatsapp easily, maps as well..."

As I said previously I have not done this process myself as I do not want Google on my phone. But it seems like a straight forward process and I'm guessing would work for the apps you mentioned.

If you are having trouble with this I suggest you ask on the reddit thread as the poster on that thread has actually done this. For the benefit of others on this thread could you please report back and advise if this worked for you.
