Here is the file. Be sure to click on old market when you have it open, if you don't like it click on new market. Pretty straight forward. HOWEVER. It installed perfect for me but when I tried to get my apps up it would always time out. I think it is only because of my network though. So perhaps others should try it anyways.

The above posts both provide a workaround/partial solution. Here is my suggestion...
If you choose to try Old Market, when you launch it you can choose "old" or "new" market. It requires root permissions to work. After selecting which Market you would like, it will reboot the device and, once it is booted, the market you chose will be installed. Take note that I did in fact still see some free apps that weren't installed, but not all of them. Perhaps they were only the apps that were downloaded to this specific device/ROM.
That said, the "old" Market is indeed the very old V2 Market. I went back to "new" Market (V3), and it upgraded itself back to Google Play after a little while.
Unless you truly like the old interface of the Market, I'd recommend you go with CosmicDan's suggestion of logging in to Google Wallet and viewing your transaction history. This will give you a list of only the apps you have purchased. Unfortunately you can not install them to your device from there, but at least you can see only the apps you have purchased without seeing every app you have ever downloaded.

Is there a way to view only one's purchased apps in the new Play Store? The new interface for the My Apps section does not seem to have a way to do this like it used to, instead showing seemingly every app one has ever downloaded, with purchased apps mixed in (in no logical order).

Big time bump on this! They really do need to add a tab that shows purchased not just installed and history.
Just ran across this. Hope there is a fix in the works. Not being able to sort the apps is a major FAIL.
I let my son have my old droid and he went crazy downloading what looks like every free app offered....my mistake for not creating a junk gmail account. Now I have literally hundreds and hundreds of apps listed in my app section of the play store.
Bump, I would like to know also
It appears that even the app management section of the Google Play website doesn't have this capability. On the positive side, the site looks great! -_-
This is just wrong, when you've bought allot of apps and downloaded plenty of free apps.
There's got to be an easier way to see what you've bought and redownload!
Someone got a clue?

This is such a fkn annoying issue. BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The other thing is there should be a tab to multi select app installs so you aren't directed to the install screen and forced to start from the beginning of the main screen after you go back. If that is not an option at least add the ability to install "ALL" paid apps.
Why in the hell would we not get the option to see purchased apps only but we get the option to see "ALL" downloaded apps paid or unpaid. That's just fkn ridiculous
P.S. To anyone that is going to tell me to roll back or move previous apk versions to system/app or even use an app to do it for you and blah blah blah. I have tried everything.
The closest I got was using the apk I will attach for everyone here. Be sure to unzip it and move the file to your phone and use a file explorer to install it.

so I should be able to choose which market I want to use on the fly when I install this apk?
This has got to be one of google's biggest recent FAILS.
It's been like this for over a month now, and what seems like a very simple and basic fix hasn't even arrived yet. Do you all think they are even aware of this being an issue for us?

Please see the updated OP for my suggestion, as well as the answer to your question.
Think this will ever be resolved? this is beyond annoying. Do you think Google is even listening? Lol

Not likely any time soon in my opinion. I'm quite positive that they knowingly made the decision to change (read remove) the list of only paid apps in the Play Store, in an effort to "improve" the app. Unfortunately.
.— Powered by Nexus —.
Another Google Fail just like the crappy resolution contact pictures that they refuse to fix. Thanks google for making have to make duplicate phone contacts and link everything. Also thank you for getting rid of showing only the paid apps.
Google has always been a piece of.. garbage, but as of late, they have just been, a piece of... junk..
Well, I do not think Google forgot to have that view. From their point of view it absolutely makes sense:
If you forget about an app you bought some day, you might end up buying another one, providing the same functionality later. And that is where they get money from, not you re-installing an already bought app.
It does not go too well with the "don't be evil" motto, but this was clearly a deliberate choice by Google.

I was aware of that, but it does not launch. Instead it immediately upgrades to Play Store as well.

The r2 works fine for me. I've put it to /system/app … I had to delete the app data to make it run again after a reboot, though.
Hi guys,
recently I noticed that the new Play Store was filtering a whole lot of apps for my device which actually were working just fine on it. The nasty thing about this is, that Ill have to search through the whole web by looking for the same app and then download it and then find out its not the most up-to-date-version, which is freaking me out.
Now Ive been wondering if theres a solution to make the Play Store show all apps so that I can download anything that is in the app store and find out for myself whether it works on my Tablet or not.
Thanks a lot for the help!

Where can i see all the purchased apps?
Did they just make it so you see the install history? very annoying :-\
go to your install history and swipe from right to left

I don't want to see all. Just purchased....
When you pull up play store and you go to "my apps". It puts you at the installed list, if you swipe left to right you go to "all" which is a mix of purchased and non purchased apps. swiping right to left from all just goes back to installed, and you can not swipe right to left from installed. Someone care to show a screenshot of their play store "purchased" list without all the history?
Installed shows everything you have installed since you flashed, bought the phone, whatever. ALL shows everything mixed, purchased and non purchased apps installed on that account..
Where is the "purchased tab"? Before the market went to Play, you could see an Installed / Not Installed list, the Not Installed list ONLY showed purchased apps, nothing else.. Is there a way to get that back?

Not on the phone. Their might be a way via the website, I rarely log in to the Playstore website.
Im just curious as to why this is a problem? Its not a big deal to scroll thru the list and look for the word "Purchased" on the right hand side, I have a list that is massively long because I have downloaded a crap load of apps (but I usually uninstall them shortly afterwards) and Im easily able to find what Im looking for, especially since the list provided is chronological.
Yes, it would be nice to have filtering and sorting options but I know right around when I downloaded a specific app that I dont remember the name for.
Now, if you have Appbrain installed, I do believe their website has filtering and sorting available for your install history...
Oh, if the reason is because during the Android initial setup process, all your apps automatically install, just uncheck the 'restore my phone settings' option when prompted (its on the screen either just before or just after the 'backup my phone' option).
It's a big deal.
Very annoying.

Yea, Its very annoying. Cause I have to search for my PAID apps, As it shows almost everything ive downloaded since 2010!
I guess, I find it quite useful actually.
The way it used to be, that free app I downloaded 3 months ago that I couldnt remember the name of, I can now find.
It also doesnt help that a few apps had a key which is the paid portion of said app without having the free portion of the app. Yes, I know I could go into the 'key' app and then look at related or more from the developer to get the actual app itself but now its in the list.
As I said, some filtering and sorting options would be nice but you can always scroll thru the list and look for the word 'Purchased'. Its not hard to do. And if you have a general idea of when you purchased the app, it gives you an idea of how far back to scroll.
The Play store is definately in need of more filtering options!
Can't agree more about missing the list of the purchased (but not installed apps)..
I used to purchase apps that I thought would come in useful at some point down the track and use it as a bit of a bookmark that I could easily access..
Showing everything that's been installed is useful to some people I suppose, but there should be a filter, or another screen to filter by things I've actually paid for and aren't installed.
yea um you cant even see all the apps on the website it shows 20 blocks and no more. 12 per page 20 blocks. 224 apps thats it i have some old apps that i purchased on the hero back when it was first released and i can no longer get to them. its really freakin annoying having to search for PAID apps. this was the WORST decision they could have made. really how hard would it have been to make a 3rd column for recent free apps. or something like that.
Google wallet does a pretty good job of storing your paid app history.
Has this issue ever been sorted?
No, the new version of the market still lacks this valuable feature.
Google Checkout
Its still a pain and not a direct download link to the app, but you can view your transaction history on Google checkout and then find the app in the store (wallet dot google dot com). I've run into the same issue after wiping my phone and trying to remember what i've actually purchased for re-download.
I wish there were an easier way to simply sort by paid/free in you history as with the general market.

Also, you can go to the bottom of the play store from a browser and click 'My Orders and Settings. to see your full history.
Have couple question about the apps supported by Gear S? If anyone has played hands-on in AT&T store or is planning too.... would appreciate some insight.
Essentially, will Gear S allow apps install from the Play Store, or we at the mercy of Samsung to decide what I can and cannot do, when I'm away from the phone?
Also, is Gear Manager just a routing/notification type software, and truly we can install anything on Gear S (whether thru playstore or side apk load), and when the smartwatch is far away (not in bluetooth range) from the phone... Gear Manager directs the AT&T tower to route the appropriate data to smartwatch.. as long as the app was installed on both smartwatch and smartphone?
Based on that AT&T fineprint pic... it seems, it will allow SMS/MMS/call and also email... does it mean I can install corporate email client from play store? and will it still work? Also, not sure about other apps.
If anyone has seen in the store... do you see the play store icon, or in settings option "to allow install from unknown sources"? Thanks in advance.
I did go to the AT&T store but the Gear S shut off.
I dont think you can install from the play store since its running Tizen OS not Android.
Thats all i now waiting for more info from Samsung.
That is a good question: is there a Tizen play store?
i to have same question as i m also planing to buy gear s ,.,. i want to have a calculator app as i did not see any sign's of having calc in it ,.,.
but i dont think that we'll have any authority to install any other app. and if this is the case than how good is moto 360 as it is an android watch ??
Is there a Tizen app store?
yes there is. You use your samsung phone to access it and then push the apps to your watch

Well this one might. I just know with the other samsung watches you have to use your phone to push the apps to it even though those have wifi on them.
Here`s a link to some Gear S apps.

I'm really pissed, that with the latest play store, I have absolutely no way of looking at previous apps I have used for yrs.. I have looked all over the place, and can not find any sign of apps I used and have payed for, that still work... I do have some back up, but the idea of them basically telling me what I can and can not install from previous yrs is pure bulls**t. The idea of getting a iphone soon is getting better and better with each passing day.
What Google play store version are you on?
Whatever the newest one is....29.5.14-21
Is it the new Material You design? What country are you from?
In UK law, they are required to give you access to any digital content you have purchased so I doubt they would get rid of the library when they require it for compliance.

In play store press your profile picture next to the search bar.
Press library
My purchased apps appear in there, from years back. If yours don’t, are you sure you haven’t accidentally used a different Google account to previous phones?
If you're logged in in a browser with your Google account, you can see what you have paid for by simply going to
Sign in - Google Accounts
play.google.com
and instantly see your purchases. Looking at my (long) list, I have no idea whether it also holds apps that are no longer available.
And here appears to be the list of all apps you ever installed:
Sign in - Google Accounts
play.google.com
(XDA makes weird titles for the links, but you can look at the URL and see whether you feel they are legit (they are))
"The idea of getting a iphone soon is getting better and better with each passing day."
In the move from 32 bit to 64 bit about half of my purchased iOS apps went unusable on newer devices, and games like Monkey Island have just vanished from the iOS app store without any notice, or any evidence that you ever purchased it, so also without any possiblity for a refund. So I don't think Apple does this better than Google....

The issue with my missing purchase was resolved.. I'm not sure what the issue was.. After a couple of hrs, and my phone finishing up updates after Samsung installing my new mainboard all seem to appear.. I'm not crazy, but even when logged into my pc, none of my apps would appear.. I have been using the same google account for yrs.. I only have one. I do know this.. Some of my apps that are back, were not available to me 6 months ago.. Maybe this has happened to others, and complaints were sent to google.. And with newer updates these issue were resolved..
