Google Play Apps and Games or APK Apps - Nexus Player Themes and Apps

When download apps and games I can't find them on home page on nexus player so I just only found out they all can be open by going to settings then go to apps but why can't they all be on home page instead of going to settings all the time to open apps and games

Search in the play store for an app called sideload and download it. That app will be allow you to select it from your home screen and will in turn bring you to a list of all installed apps. Hope that helps!

[Q] Remove app from Android Market 'My Library'

So I use the Amazon app store and GetJar for free 'paid' apps. Some of these apps are showing up in "My Library" on my Google Android Market account. Is there a way to remove them from the Android Market account?
One recent problem is Wave Launcher which used to be free on GetJar. I don't see it listed anymore on GetJar and I can't even buy it from the Android Market since it thinks it's already purchased (but declines the 'install' saying it's not purchased). A 'delete' button like in the Amazon app store library would solve all of this...
Short of changing google accounts, I don't see any options on how to fix this. Anyone have any ideas? The problem is on my market library, not my phone (I know how to remove market links, etc.). Thanks.
I to have this problem its very annoying their has to be a way to clean it up.
I actually used the 'report' app function on the google market and got a reply back. They have "forwarded your case to a specialist to begin working to resolve your issue as soon as possible". We'll see what comes of it. Amazon's app store has a simple delete button in that library. It doesn't seem like that would be too hard to implement.
did you ever get a reply for this?
would love to be able to remove all the apps i just simply try for the sake of testing and i want them gone.....
listen to your users G!
I believe Titanium Backup can do this if you are rooted.

Go on...
You can "fix" market links with it by long pressing on the app in question.

On the website I don't see an option, but it is possible on your phone.
I am not sure if all versions of the play store have this option (I am using Jelly Bean 4.1.2):
When I open the play store on my phone I can remove previous installed apps from the list.
Go to: Play Store > My Apps > All
There you can remove an app by tapping the Ø icon

Yeahp. It works.
I deleted some yesterday on my mobile, but they were still on my web "Other apps in my library".
Today, I deleted some again and reloaded the webpage. They disappeared.
Thanks for the tip.
Ok, maybe it needs some time to sync. Great it works!

I have this issue as well--phone app has no provision for deleting the apps, on JB ROM.

[Q] Why are google apps broken?

My sister got a nook tablet a few weeks ago and I helped her get Go Launcher and Google Apps including the play store. Everything was fine but she called me last night with problems. Most of her apps on the Go Launcher home screen were in the "Loading" state with just an android icon. When she would open the Play Store it would tell her she needed to add her Google Account and pressing the button to add an account would dump her back on Go Launcher. Gmail also dumps her straight to her home screen. She also mentioned something about Go Launcher saying she should try relaunching Go Launcher. After a couple restarts I wasn't able to make any progress on the phone.
So, before I make my trip out to see her, what are some potential culprits? It sounds like the accounts app broke but I don't know how or why.

You're thinking of Google Docs. I'm referring to the generic Google Apps for Android which includes the Play Store, Gmail, Talk, and more.
Try clearing the cache from both Google Play and Google Services Framework, and then reboot.

How can I do this? There is no application management menu in the settings like on normal android.
Turns out the nook tablet updated itself to 1.4.2 even though I had the 9.9.9 version "fix". Why did it update? How can I prevent it in the future aside from loading a custom rom?

Android Market Missing Books and Movies Section

Hi All,
I'm running an SGS2 with CM9 (always up to the latest nightly).
I noticed today then when trying to open the Play store, it takes me directly to the Apps section and doesn't let me choose between the normal Apps, Movies and Books sections that i could before (i'm in the UK so no music option ever existed).
If i go to Play Book or Play Movies and press the market button, same happens, it just takes me to the apps secions.
I've tried clearing data on all google play related apps and uninstalling the google play updates and rebooting etc but still, everytime it takes me directly to the apps section and doesn't let me access any other section...
an online search didn't really help because the terms are so generic that it just returns junk results...
any ideas?
nevermind... got if fixed...
it turns out that it had something to do with market enabler and then switching back to the default provider and that combined with me using a wifi connection which appears to have been a US connection.
what i did to resolve:
revert back to default settings in market enabler
disable wifi
clear data for Google Play Store
connect via HSPA
start play store and it all works.

[Q] google play.."device not compatible"

, i have a vibrant using ICS euphoria , kernel 3.1.10-kiss-v8
having many problems with google play and updating or downloading new apps. for example..
dolphin browser beta . searching this on google play and it will say "device not compatible" ,so i have to dl the apk. now i have dolphin and it works but will not update as on my phone it does not list dolphin browser in the list of apps in google play. but when i check on my computer online at google play it says i have dolphin browser.
this happens with other apps. how do i fix this and why is my phone not working with google play the way it should?

I had a similar problem with my phone. I changed the dpi to 240 and voila. Try it may be it can work out.

Try try to use capital letters.
One problem with PlayStore is if the phone isn't 240dpi it might become incompatible. So you'll have to clear the PlayStore data and set it back to 240dpi.
Also developers can set their app to not be compatible with your phone. The way I get around it is to log into Play Store within a browser. When you download an app from the browser it will show you a list of all the Android devices that are associated with your gmail account, hopefully the app is compatible with one of that device. Then download it to that device, then back up that app to apk to send to your phone.
It's one of the annoying thing about Android right now.
thanks
thank you guys , that worked great and its something so simple. went to gmarket and i had so many apps to update , i had no idea
cheers

Can I stop Play Store links opening the app?

Hey all! I tend to use my computer a lot for finding/installing Android apps on my various devices, but my new Samsung Chromebook Plus always automatically opens Play Store links in the app. Does anyone know how I can disable that and get back to using the Play web Store?
Thanks!
In case anyone else is curious, the only workaround I've found is Alt+clicking a link and choosing Open in New Tab. Ctrl+Click will still open in the Play Store app.
this used to work. but not anymore?
any other suggestions ?
To change the "Open by Default" setting for the Play Store app:
Right-click or long press on the Play Store icon in the App Launcher, click "App info", then "Open by default", then change "Open supported links" to "Don't open in this app".
