I just feel like if they were going to change anything it should have been in a way that matched ICS a little better

WTF!? "Play"?
Got this Update a few minutes ago.
Is Google kidding me?
What was wrong with "Market"?

Why is it not matching ICS? The icon and app pages are halo light and overview in halo dark. It matches perfectly (if you saw the android developer site.)
Though I do miss Andy. They need to put him somewhere in the market.

"Market" is not a name

Just got it as well.
I like how they replaced everything with 'Play'.
Instead of 'Read The Hunger Games' it's 'Play The Hunger Games'
Hopefully they'll update something worthwhile soon so I can 'Play with Google Wallet' instead of having it broken.

im ok with the 'play' name its the icon/logo i dont like, market was prettier

I recall reading a blog mentioning that the term "app" was patented by you-know-who. They even had an issue with Amazon's store because it had the same name.

When you click on the settings it says "apps" or "my apps" it was there.

Apps is still there on Play it's exactly the same except for the name and icon of Market

Bit off topic, but does anyone of the apk for Play Music? I hear that it's fairly different to the stock player, well and I can't get it here in Germany.
Thanks!
EDIT: NVM, market enabler does the trick

To receive it, just clean market cache (only cache is enough), reboot, open market (wait a bit,in background it should download the update), exit, reopen and bam you will receive the play store...its confirmed to work

When are all the apps going to be compatible with Jelly Bean?

Its starting to aggravate me that my old phone can do more than this tablet. Is jb really that new? No one prepared for it's release? Come on! Love my tablet but wtf is the hold up with the apps not being ready to use like td bank and Amazon mobile to name a few.

Ummm what???? I've never found one yet ...did u change ur DPI?? All apps work man

Maybe all the ones you use, didn't change anything.

Make sure u on stock DPI !!! Then clear data on market and Google right below it,reboot then it'll work I'm telling u 99%apps are compatible with jellybean man I've installed tons and tons of apps even hardcore games 2gb large

I must agree to a certain extent. NatWest banking app fails on jellybean, it just won't show my balance. For the most part however, apps work fine.

Unlikely has anything to do with JB. Most likely the permissions listed below are incompatible with the Nexus 7.
Amazon Mobile requires these permissions:
Your location
coarse (network-based) location, fine (GPS) location
Network communication
full Internet access, view network state
Hardware controls
take pictures, control vibrator

TD Bank (US) requires these permissions:
Services that cost you money
directly call phone numbers

Amazon mobile in the play store says its not compatible with the nexus 7. but If you sideload it it works fine. using it right now on my device.
Didnt try the td bank app but try sideloading that one as well. It might work.

Yes I keep encountering apps that don't appear in the market. They may very well work, but won't appear for nexus 7/jelly bean.
Some examples?
linephone
GT racing Hyundai edition
And there are lots of others that I can't think of now. Since owning this nexus (since launch date) I've probably encountered 30-40 apps that aren't available on the market. And I know there are lots others. Didn't really bother me at first, but I thought with how much this has sold that developers would issue (what would be minor most of the time) updates so these would be available.
And I've never bothered looking into it, but I know obviously you can keep an apk when downloading it from the market and others have posted them on various websites for others in situations like this, however my understanding is with jb it encrypts them so this is no longer possible with jb.
Because sometimes I get determined and go hunting for an apk and it turns out to be two versions behind or whatever. Is there a way to download apks even on jb? Is there an app that can do this? I'm not saying this regarding pirating, just another means of trying to get apps that are free that would more than likely work on this device.

Google play

Is anyone else having this issue in google play.
You scroll down as you look at apps.
You select one to look at it then go back to the app list.
Once back to the list you are started back at the top.
Pretty annoying if you are pretty far down.
Anyone know of a fix
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

It works like that for everyone. I have not seen a fix for it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

It will probably be fixed in a newer version, it is annoying but its no biggie
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I have actually contacted Google about this. It happens when viewing the "My Apps" and is especially annoying in the "All" tab. It also happens in the "Top New Free" apps section. Google emailed me back and said they can't promise anything, but my concern had been forwarded to their developers. I really hope they fix this.

Good deal. Yeah it's not a huge deal but gets annoying when you are searching for apps and have to scroll through a couple hundred apps to get back to where you left off. Seems like it would be an easy fix for Google I wonder why they don't fix it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

It would be great if they fix it soon... and also give us the possibility to clean the chronology of the google play, i've an endless list of apps it's pretty useless...

Yes, now that you mention it the app history of every app you downloaded in the last 5 years is worse. I download and try a ton of free apps as well as paid. Most free apps are deleted within the day, so I have a gazillion apps in the my apps list
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I agree these issues are annoying. I'll sign any petition!

Furthermore, they need to bring back a way of filtering purchased apps. All of our purchased apps should be in one convenient place.

I heard there was an apk called "play legend"that allows you to see all purchased apps, still haven't found + installed it yet though

Theres legacy play store by Paul O'brien on MoDaCo.

An update to the Playstore is being rolled out to address some of these issues. You can now remove apps from the all apps list and it appears to keep your place when you scroll.

This new Play Store is sweet! You can delete historical apps and it remembers your position when navigating backward!
I downloaded from the article link, cleared market data, pushed to system (rooted), and rebooted. Works great.

Google Settings app

just noticed this; when did it appear!?

Where at? Can you post a screen shot?

I received bunch of updates and see this new Google settings. I believe it is something to do with this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...n-in-simple-and-secure-minus-the-social-spam/

I'm so thoroughly confused what is even being discussed here. Such vague posts and no specifics..

It is a little worrying that it seems like a Google Settings app just appears without any interaction from me...can't even see which Google app got updated?

It just appeared on my device too...

It has here as well, how very odd!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Ok, after some brief digging around. It appears it is part of Google Play Services.. Which before no one was entirely sure what it was used for, it appears we now have an idea.. To use as a gateway for Google to install their loot on your device at will.
That app is the only one I have open.. As you see, Google Play Services is responsible for it.

There was zero notification either!
Seems to have a lot of perms too.
Yup, if you hold and drag to App Info it shows as Google Play Services.

The strange part of it is.. I have my Nexus 10 sitting right in front of me and that app doesn't exist and I have no updates.

I was wondering why my internet connection lagged so bad to the point where I couldn't do anything.. Then this settings app showed up.

Have not got it. Is it only those with G+ who have received it?

This explains all the google wake locks I have been getting over the past few days. They have been doing this in pieces. I went in and froze the play services and the locks are gone for now.

Google Wallet Update

Looks like Wallet has a nice update and so far I do not see any nag screens for rooted devices either. Check it out and let others know what your results are..
Links to thread is here and direct link to file is here
Not too shabby and it seems to work on more devices now. Tested on an S4 for Tmobile and it also loads up. Did not test purchases though

I was actually looking for the apk. Thanks! I had to clear app data to get it to start up. I kept getting forced closes. It's up and running now. Will test payments out soon.
