Google Play Store missing books and movies in app - Nexus 7 General

Wasn't sure if this should have went in to the Q & A section and if it should I apologize is advance. Last night I rooted my nexus 7 and changed the DPI to 160 for the tablet ui. Long story short I noticed in Google play, the books and movies options are not longer displaying. Even when I search for titles movies and books it comes back with 0 results. I put the dpi back to 213 thinking it would reformat the layout and it would reappear but no luck. I'm really not sure what to do. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. I provided a screen shot of how it looks in 213 so you'll see the options are not there. Thanks again.

Tried it, still a no go. Even tried uninstalling updates. Nothing seems to be working. I'm running out of ideas.

try flashing a custom rom

Yeah, was gonna ask what you're running. I see mention of this in a thread at RootzWiki but it seemed to be corrected by reverting to the original DPI..

So after messing around with it for over an hour, it all of a sudden reappeared out if no where. Switched it back to 160 and its still showing. Thanks guys but this really a weird one.

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

Alright I think I have figured out that you cannot review content that was downloaded using the other market I think? Yeah it is pretty confusing if anyone could clarify this a bit more?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

Should of just bought it back then. Anyways if anyone knows of it or a different similar app that uses light sensor info would greatly be appreciated thanks!

I just downloaded that and it seems to work well. One of the default settings disables it in landscape mode, which might be the problem you guys are having. Either deselect that option or try it in portrait mode to see if that works.
I'd still like to find something closer to what is described in the OP. It would be kind of useful to have it just turn on and off when I open and close my case.
Aite I got it to work upon closing sweet now if i can just find one that "aweken" my Xoom upon opening case....

I think you might be talking about Killswitch. It was developed by an xda dev. I tried to use it with my 7 inch tab, but had fcs. However he was very helpful. I haven't tried it with the Xoom, but I think I'll look it up.

Just flashed a custom 4.2.2 N7 rom and sure enough, it's there - interesting enough, it's showing up also on my HTC DI2 running GingerBread (custom rom written over a year ago,) no prompt or option to cancel/postpone or decline, just auto-updated (except that it did not have the Location & Search sub-menu like the N7)
Suffice to say - easily integrated without crashing or freezing, enhancement across the board for all Google devices ... I think. :highfive:
The icon looks very unattractive. Now my app drawer has 3 similar icons side by side that are blue (Google Search), green (Google Settings), and red (Google+)
Hhmm, I don't have it. Dirty AOKP. I'll reboot and see

OK, after reboot it's there.
Now my Galaxy Note 2 stock 4.1.2 rooted got this...

I've just tried with both stock (AOSP) and the none beta Firefox and it works fine for me. Bit surprised TBH as I'm in the UK and expected it to be geo IP locked.
Might be worth trying the none beta Firefox and see if it makes a difference.

Both my sons N7 and mine will not run flash. Even though it is loaded and showing in the app drawer. I even tried Boat and still nothing? I guess I will try and undo/reinstall everything. Too weird..

Like the above poster said, enable flash in settings. Also, set plugins to auto for best performance.

I'm running the Flash Player 11 v11.0.1.153 armv6.apk with Firefox beta, latest version downloaded yesterday and on some sites like Biography.com the video plays but no sound. Just downloaded Boat and it doesn't work at all, says Flash needs to be installed. Both browsers obviously have plugins enabled.

Unable to update Facebook app?

I may have run into a weird bug. I cannot access Facebook in the playstore, and when I look at the version that came preinstalled on the First, it's version 3.0, whereas on my HTC, it's running 3.2.
Anyone else running into this?
It isn't a huge concern, as I'm giving this phone to my grandmother who doesn't even use facebook, but, I just find this endlessly odd.
That shouldn't happen. Have you tried visiting the "my apps" section of the play store and try the Facebook app that (should) show up there?

It doesn't show up anywhere. Not in the my apps section, and not when I search for it in the play store. Even on the desktop, the web version of the play store says its incompatible. It's a bit weird.
I'm getting the same thing. I just took a screenshot.

Hmm, Maybe this SKU of the first has mistakenly been blackballed from receiving facebook updates in the play store? If anyone has any other colors, I'd like to know if they are experiencing the same problem.
Same issue. Blue version.

I have a black HTC First and was able to update Facebook to 3.2.1. However, this update was supposed to add the much need Favorites Bar (Dock) to the Home launcher. It is not working for me.
Anyone else seeing this?
