[Q] Can't find "my apps" button in play store?

So I installed CM 10 on my att one x, and flashed gapps jb20121011, but I can't find the my apps button. I don't know if I flashed the wrong gapps or there is a different problem . I wiped everything and installed everything again to no avail. Any ideas?

press the multi task button, does it bring up settings?
If not you have to edit the hardware keys
Nope it brings up multitask, will I lose my multitasking by editing hardware buttons? Jb on my nexus has the arrow down "my apps" button. Why is it different?

Touch to wake?

Hey guys!
Is there an app, mod or something that can enable waking the screen just by swiping on it?
There's an app called Touch Control but it doesn't work on the Nexus 5.
Doesn't work yet give it time once they implement it in a kernel it will eventually work

Remove search bar

Is it possible to remove the Google Search bar from my stock launcher. It just bugs me being there, so have to use a Apex which I don't like using a 3rd party launcher.

The OP mentioned he doesn't want a third party launcher. You can try disabling Google Search. It worked on other versions of Android but I don't know if it will still work. One thing; anything that relies on search will not work.
I want it out of there as well, I've been on android since the begining and I have an exact layout I use. That location is where my clock widget goes and there isn't a chance in hell I will use their stock launcher until it can be moved.
visually disable that "Search bar", while still having the "Ok Google"
I would love to be able to simply visually disable that "Search bar", while still having the "Ok Google" voice function working (don't mind loosing the Google Now swipe too)!
if there is an app or some hack that can be applied to stock tooted ROM, pleas let me know.
Thanks

If your N5 is rooted and and you can install a custom rom. CatalystROM does have that option for you to disable that gesture from home. Give it a go.
Theres also an app called "Google Now Swipe Disabler" which can bind to it and do nothing. The gesture still remains though, very annoying in games!

Nexus 5 home screen landscape?

I really like the Google launcher a lot and it feel as its missing an important feature such as home screen rotation. I saw videos on youtube for a nexus 7 how to and wondering if it would world with our nexus 5. Have anyone tried it and got it to work?
