My Apps choice does not appear in Google Play - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The menu choice "My Apps" does not appear at all in Google play on my Galaxy Tab 2.0 7". On my phone its the top item in the menu when I hit Menu button in Google Play. When I start Google Play on tablet and hit its menu button at top of screen, there is no My Apps choice.
Anyone else have this or know how to fix it.
I am rooted with 4.1.2 ROM based on the stock ROM provided in the rooting instructions for the device in the forums here.

Thanks. I see the My Apps function was moved out from the others in the Menu list.

[Q] My apps

Is there a 1 touch method of opening "my apps" rather than through the market app ?
In the app drawer, in the upper left part, you'll find "All apps" and "My apps". You can use this instead of the market. It is much faster and doesn't need internet connection.
Hope this is what you're looking for...

Thanks for reply. I don't think that was what I was after.
When you go into "market" on the right you have a button for "my apps" which lists all your apps on the left and shows which ones have updates, which you can then click to update them.
Not too sure what you mean by apps drawer. Is that the button on top right of home screen?

Perhaps you can give us some insight into what you're trying to accomplish here. I guess you just want to be able to quickly check for updates? I've never had a problem opening the market and just clicking "My Apps", always seemed fast enough for me.
There's not way that I know of that you could make a shortcut to that part of the market program, sorry.

Yeah not sure what you're trying to do.
Do you want to directly see which ones need updating? You can just click the automatic updates so it updates itself.
Do you want to just see your downloaded apps? Click the button on the top left on your homescreen. This launches your 'app drawer'. On the top you'll see My Apps. Click that and and it'll only show you your downloaded/installed apps.

Any Inspire owners able to multi-select and delete in the new Google Play app?

I've installed the new Google Play app that has "installed" and "all" lists under My Apps, and the ability to delete apps from the "all" list. However, I keep hearing about others being able to multi-select by long pressing an item and then selecting other items, and deleting more than one app at a time. I'm not able to do this no matter what I try. Has anyone else got it to work on an Inspire?

I didn't know that was possible, but I can't either. When I have an app selected and try to long-press a second app, both get deselected.
After the first one has been selected (long pressed), tap on the rest.

That's what I've been doing. If I long press an item and then let up, it just opens that item to show it to me. I tried long pressing in the middle of the item, long pressing on just the delete symbol for the item, nothing works. Long pressing on the delete symbol just asks me if I want to delete that item.

Long-press 1 item, then short-press a 2nd in the middle.

Drink some coffee, watch some tv, relax, try again later.
Long press on an app (in the middle) that isn't installed, tap the rest. Don't know how to explain it any other way. Sorry.

OK, I laughed. I'll keep trying, but it just doesn't seem to be working for me. If I ever "get lucky" with this one, I'll report back.
more info and questions!
I've been reading some reviews of the new version and my screen looks slightly different from the ones in the reviews. At the top of the review photos, in the "all" app listing screen, I see not only a search icon (the magnifying glass) but just to its right, three small squares on top of each other. In some apps this is associated with switching from "single select" to "multiple select".
In other screens, in particular one where several items have already been highlighted (selected), there is a delete icon (the circle with a line through it) by itself at the upper right where the search and the "multiple select" icons were before.
From the screen shots it certainly looks like you select the "multiple select" icon, which then changes to a "delete" icon, and you select the items you wish to batch delete, finishing the deletion by pressing the "delete" icon at the upper right of the screen.
No one and none of the reviews have actually mentioned having to press a "multiple select" icon before being able to do a batch deletion.

I noticed on jellybean you can multi select. On sense though you can not even with the new 3.9 version.

I'm going to try backing up my ROM, running the no-sense script to remove Sense, and seeing if the new version works then. Once I've used the batch uninstall I'll reflash the ROM and presumably all will be well.

Extra menu in Jelly Bean

Hi All,
So I've got Paranoid Android JB on my HOS and have a question. Usually, or at least on ICS, in the Google Play store there were 3 dots that when click listed something like "My Apps" or gave you some more options. Similarly in the Contacts App, there was an extra menu button that allowed you to edit and delete etc.
Well, I don't seem to have that option. How on earth do I edit a contact or view my installed Apps via the Play Store?

Not 100% but if it got some kind of toolboox in the settings menu then its in there somewhere under Hardware Keys.
If your ROM has AOKP "ROM Control" under Settings, then its under Rom Control, General UI, and all the way at the bottom w "Show Menu UI Overflow"
It has to be somewhere in your settings though.

Can you explain how, because I 've walked through all the menus and not figured out how to disable.
Thanks
Go to settings, applications, then you have a list of apps installed. At the bottom there are two signs... I am not sure what their exact wording is in English but you have to click on the right one with three horizontal lines... From the popup menu you choose "show system apps" (or some thin like that) and scroll all the way down to "YellowPage". If you click on it you have two buttons at the top, the left of which says "Deactivate". You click it, it gives you a warning about stability, just ignore it and voilĂ , no Yellow pages in the dialer app! Hope it helps!
You can use zenui dialer & contacts from Asus. It's in de Play Store, free and without advertising. I know I'm very happy with it.
Thank you , of course that helps.

Task management *FIXED*

How i remove recent apps in task management? I don't remember where it is. Regards!
Press/hold 3 bars to bring up recent apps then go to 3 dots top right and go to settings. It's the only option available now. Hope that helps
Thanks for your reply. I tried, but there is no 3 dots top right. Thanks anyway for your help.
did you try to swipe up on the running app?
Yes, I did. No difference. I'm on One UI 3.0 (Android 11)
