This module's v1.3.2 "go to My Apps" option (unrelated to the "show the full changelog" function) only applies to Play Store versions 5.x and 6.x. I'm guessing that you recently updated to Play Store 7.x and forgot to read the last few entries in this thread before posting. Take a peek at the post just before yours... ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] gdecker:
Just download Playstore 6.9... Going to downgrade so I can use this awesome module. Upgrading apps to the latest isn't always the greatest.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
There is no obvious need to downgrade your Play Store. This module's current v1.3.2

will

show you the full changelog with Play Store 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x. If you're concerned about the ability to get directly to the "My Apps" tab, a separate issue, you can easily do that under any Play Store version from Gingerbead on (including 6.9), as explained many times previously.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
[MENTION=4420531]gdecker[/MENTION] Downgrading would be a viable solution if the damn thing didn't upgrade itself.
[Xposed Framework Modules] gdecker:
That's why I'm going to try 6.9...

You're right, so it's work in progress.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Overblown - no reason to downgrade (here) and just asking for future issues. So many better options ...
[Xposed Framework Modules] OfficerJimLahey:
Thread cleaned due to warez discussion. Lets not cheat developers by suggesting it (even though it may be for a seemingly innocuous purpose) okay?

Thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MarioBrosN5:
Any plans for v1.3.3 (v7.0.*.H compatibility) release?

https://github.com/P1nGu1n/PlayStor...mits/a36830028f826299cf35dc7a30f8834d1ee810ce
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Actually, Play Store is at version 7.1.* and the unreleased commit to which you refer is effectively obsolete, but the point is that this module's current v1.3.2 shows the

full changelog with all known Play Store versions from 5.x on

and there's no obvious need for an update at this time.

If, as I suspect, you are concerned about the ability to go directly to the "My Apps" tab, for which you need no module, no Xposed, and no root, for ANY Play Store version, I suggest you read the last few posts in this thread.

Earlier, this module attempted to include the "My Apps" shortcut for some Store versions, but when it became clear that Google started obfuscating the relevant entry points differently for each new Store release, [MENTION=5122600]P1nGu1n_[/MENTION] bravely attempted to cover a few of them, but it has become increasingly obvious that it would turn into an endless chase for no clear benefit and probably not worth the time and effort, especially since it's already trivial to get to "My Apps". It was a noble endeavor, but now it might even make sense to simply remove that code altogether in future module releases. Sometimes, less is best... ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] FlemishDroid:
I use the app QCustomShortcut as you suggested a while back and it works great but one disadvantage is that the Play Store icon looks not sharpe. ;)

Sent from my lightning fast SM-G930F (S7)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
QCustomShortcut allows you to select your own custom icon even if your launcher itself doesn't offer that ability. If you don't like the default Play Store icon, you can simply use another one (or a higher resolution version). Similarly, most launchers can readily give the standalone "Shortcut to My Apps" app mentioned in an earlier post a different icon if preferred. You may want to discuss those issues wherever your launcher is supported.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Absolutely hope the dev removes this functionality as it is a sideshow to the modules primary purpose (which works perfectly) yet draws excessive noise in the forums. Much of the whining could be mitigated with a simple search but laziness prevails.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
The Noise is only generated by the Zealots who have nothing better to do all day than to keep repeating page-long sermons instead of just referencing post numbers. Please find another home for your trolling disguised as protection of the author.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Are you kidding me? Such entitlement!! The author selflessly develops a tool and makes is freely available and you want to persecute. Yeah, I will run interference against that type of attack.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
So, you are the author?
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Moving on ... clearly want to play the antagonist and haven't read back to appreciate the history of the module or feature in question.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
Sorry, the only antagonist here is you. You keep throwing around accusations, pretending to protect the author when my comments were clearly directed at YOU. Nobody attacked the author, any author deserves praise. But nobody deserves a troll whose only joy in life is pointing out the errors of others. Now shush.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Lol - thank you! Have a nice day :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Clark Joseph Kent:
Enough. And consider this my warning.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
FYI, public releases of the Play Store are now 7.2.x versions (7.2.13.J on apkmirror, for example). As expected, this module's v1.3.2 still displays the full changelog, as it does for all other previous Store versions from 5.x on.

As a reminder, the separate "go to My Apps" feature that was available for older (6.x) Store versions is effectively obsolete but its functionality can be readily duplicated (for any Store version) without Xposed or root. See previous posts in this thread for details.

In other words, the module doesn't need updating and nothing significant has changed ... ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
FYI, the 'go to My Apps' feature which is what many of the users of this module cherish still works with Play Store up to 6.9.15.
[Xposed Framework Modules] f2bacon:
Just followed this and it worked flawlessly. Thanks for the tip!!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] rambomhtri:
It's been 2 months since Google Play 7.X came out, is it that hard or time-consuming to fix the "Show My Apps" issue?

If it gets fixed, will it be broken again in the next Google Play update, or it will probably last all 7.X updates?

I thought it would be fixed like a week or so after the Google Play update.

I'm not pretending to be rude, at all, although I see that some users here think you're rude for even saying "hi". I know it's a free time hobby, but since the dev has not participated in 2 months, we're curious about what's going to happen, that's why we ask. There's no point on having a feature in a module that doesn't work anymore.

Cheers.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
It's extremely unlikely that the short-lived experimental "go to My Apps" feature for Play Store 5.x and 6.x will be reintroduced. It's relatively trivial to include it for a specific Store version but it would be somewhat pointless since the odds of needing a change for each subsequent Store release are extremely high, as history has shown.

Perhaps more relevant is the simple fact that such a feature is not really needed and doesn't require a specific module, Xposed or even root. As pointed out many times, to go directly to the "My Apps" tab, you merely need to use a shortcut to that tab (see instructions in this thread or let Google show you), for

any

Store version, and not worry about Store updates, under any Android version from 2.2 on.

Enjoy this module for what it does: provide a full changelog, whether you directly open "My Apps" or not. Let' all be grateful to [MENTION=5122600]P1nGu1n_[/MENTION] for having made this possible, The current version (1.3.2) works flawlessly for all Store releases from 5.x on, including the latest 7.2.x, and there's no obvious need to change anything.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rambomhtri:
Well, thank you for replying. Then I think he should remove it from there since he's not going to update his module every time Google Store changes. I've read that you proposed a good solution which is a shortcut, but why would you use 2 apps to do one thing that you can do with one single app. If it's true what you're saying, the dev should at least post a message saying that it's not possible to maintain all the time that feature working.

Now that we know that it's a feature that will get continuously broken, it's more clever to use a shortcut as you said. I'm using Nova Launcher... I've seen it can add shortcuts, would it be able to place a shortcut to "My apps" directly?

I don't want to install another app to just put a shortcut.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Yes, if [MENTION=5122600]P1nGu1n_[/MENTION] finds the time, he may decide to remove that defunct "feature", but it has no bearing over the module's functionality and it seems a bit harsh to expect the dev of a FREE module to take the time to post a message telling you that he doesn't have time to release a "do nothing" update that is not needed... ;)

Perhaps you didn't have a chance to search or look at this thread close enough (#485, #524, #532, etc.). Yes, there is a convenient app in the Store to get to "My Apps directly", but all you need is a launcher shortcut, not this module, Xposed, or root. Even if you temporarily install a "shortcut maker" app (QCustomShortcut?) long enough to create that shortcut if your launcher can't do that on its own, you can immediately delete that app. I happen to use Nova (currently 5.0b9) with a direct shortcut to My Apps (no additional separate app), and I've been going directly to "My Apps" for eons since way before Xposed was created. Try it, it won't hurt....
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Agreed and support depreciation or removal if/when developer has the time, resources and motivation to do so. That said, dev has no obligation to action this module as no harm results from the feature's presence or use.

Believe source is published; anyone with sufficient time, resources, skill and motivation could work on a fork.

Or just use one of the excellent alternatives published by [MENTION=4343728]Mike B.[/MENTION] in this thread.
[Xposed Framework Modules] riedenthied:
Is this feature still working with actual Play Store? I believe it's not, isn't it? That's much more important for me than jumping to My Apps list. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
It does on the devices where I have this module installed which includes a variety of KitKat and Lollipop based roms with the latest version of the Play Store. Apps list shows correct status with updates (if applicable) at top; no explicit action required.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rambomhtri:
Hey, I'd like to comment here an issue I've faced several times.

Well, some apps in Google Play get updated, but the devs don't update the changelog, so you will see in the changelog something like:

v3.41.23:

-Bugs fixed

-etc

... and when you scroll down, once you've opened the "read more" panel, you will see at the bottom the REAL version, which sometimes differ from the one in the changelog. In this example, it would be "Latest version: 3.42.12"

So, it would be nice to put at the beginning of the changelog or above it the version and date, copied from the specs panel down below. What do you think?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Each developer decides what should appear in the "changelog" and "read more" sections of his/her apps, within the limits of what the not-so-friendly Store dev interface allows. That's nothing over which this or any other Xposed module has any control, even if a module could magically guess which information in the dev-provided description is most accurate or relevant to your device, sorry.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Wiciaki:
While the main feature (expanding the description) still works, many exceptions are thrown in the xposed log

Set default view to" my apps" and autoupdate haven't been working for a while now.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
FYI, public Play Store releases are now at versions 7.3.x. As expected, this module's current v1.3.2's "show full changelog" function still behaves perfectly and there is no obvious need to change anything at this time. It works with all Store versions from 5.x on and Xposed frameworks up to the current 87.x.

If you are about to post something about the long-dead "go to MyApps tab" experiment for old Store versions, please review the last few posts in this thread. Hint: that option is obsolete (uncheck it) and unnecessary if you simply use the correct shortcut. Complaints should be addressed to Google who decided to start obfuscating their code in some early 6.x Play Store versions... ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Poppeye0:
FYI, the 'go to My Apps' feature which is what many of the users considered the most useful option of this module still works with Play Store up to 6.9.15.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Ibuprophen:
The Module works on the Play Store v7.0.18H I've been using for a while now...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Fif_:
It definitely didn't work with 7.2.13.J.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Yes it did/does. As pointed out countless times in this thread, this module's "show full changelog" function works just fine for

all Play Store versions from 5.0 to the latest 7.3.x

. If you can't see the full changelog, make sure your Xposed configuration is correct, but I suspect that you are simply still trying to enable the obsolete "got to MyApps" option which was only for Play Store 5.x/6.x. A quick review of recent posts or a search of this thread will show you all the details... ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Fif_:
The OP was talking about the "got to MyApps" function.

Sorry, I didn't know that was taboo here.

Now I have to apologize for trying to help people. I guess I'll stay out of that thread.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Could it simply be that you are trying to enable this module's obsolete "change default pane to My Apps" option that was for Play Store 6.x but is not applicable to your Play Store 7.3.x? Disable that option then reboot. You should now see the full changelog, as expected, and no Xposed log errors.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Howlin1:
Nope the only boxes checked are the debugging and display full change log options
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Oh OK. It was worth a try!

I've seen that odd "missing com.google.android.finsky.api.model.DfeToc" error before, unrelated to this module. It seems to have something to do with various Java apps/modules that attempt to communicate with specific Play Store versions APIs but I can't do much research right now, sorry.

FYI, I've been able to duplicate those log entries on a test device running Play Store 7.3.x and Xposed 87.x, whether the module's "debugging" option is selected or not. At least this doesn't affect this particular module's behavior but it will need to be investigated.

Tip for users who don't care about the log and don't want to "waste" space: clear "/data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/log/error.log" then make it readonly (chmod 0444). Effective but not recommended and I'll deny any knowledge of this paragraph! ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Still no special insight on the puzzling "missing com.google.android.finsky.api.model.DfeTo" error log entries, but this module still displays the full changelog with the latest (?) Play Store 7.4.09.l (get it on APKMirror.com if you want), as expected. No obvious need to change/update anything at this time.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Since this thread is full of "does it work with Play Store version xxxx?" queries, it's possible that someone cares. Sorry to have disturbed your browsing experience... ;)

Great module. This always annoyed me with the play store. Glad I found this module.
[Xposed Framework Modules] CHEF-KOCH:

[Xposed Framework Modules] P1nGu1n_:
That's pretty strange. All I can say is uncheck and recheck the option or maybe force close the Play Store or indeed reboot as [MENTION=2186813]Ninolina[/MENTION] said. It's probably something like that, because I'm pretty sure it's no bug in my code. :)

Thanks, I appreciate that! :D

You're welcome, that's nice to hear :)

[Xposed Framework Modules] P1nGu1n_:
I really don't know why a few people have this, I still think it's not a bug in PSC. :(

Anyway, try unchecking and re-checking the the option, than close the Play Store and open it to see if it works. If it still doesn't work, reboot maybe?

You're very welcome :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Probably a name change to Play Updates Xposed would be more suitable now? :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] P1nGu1n_:
I was already thinking about maybe rebranding it, but a potential new name has to cover the future of this module. Since I don't know anything to develop at this module at the moment, I keep this name until I know it's future haha.

By the way, there's one thing I still wanna look into, displaying the current version of an app, if it's not too hard and doesn't require hacking the layout.

[Xposed Framework Modules] P1nGu1n_:
Because of several reports about changing the default pane to My Apps not working I went investigating it, here are my findings.

I have been able to replicate it and the code to change the default pane actually works fine. Where something goes wrong is reading the preferences file. Even though the file exists and the preferences are saved in there (confirmed), the class used to read the preferences with Xposed (XSharedPreferences) says it has no entries. As a workaround I've found is unchecking the option and rechecking it, when closing and reopening the Play Store everything works for me. I've done a ton of debugging and I know when it's occurring, but there's no logic why. I've always used this code to read preferences, almost every Xposed module does it in a similar way, so I doubt there's a bug in the code. I will ask some others for help, because this one makes no sense to me. :silly: Anyway, because for some reason it doesn't load the preferences, it uses the default values, which is why the My Apps screen isn't loaded as default, it's not enabled by default.

Ill keep you updated once I know something more, in the meanwhile, try the workaround. Things like turning debugging on and rebooting does not solve it on its own. If anyone as an idea or another workaround, please let me know.

Edit: help thread created
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
This is probably old news but I stumbled upon it today and thought others may benefit. With recent Play Store builds on Android 5.1+ long pressing the Play Store icon brings up an option to add a 'My apps' shortcut to the desktop. Just that simple. Caveats:

- doesn't appear to work on stock KitKat ROMs

- play store icon must already exist on desktop (can be removed later)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
I hinted at this back in October (#524) but I wasn't sure it had been implemented in public releases. It apparently works with some but not all common launchers/ROMs, but that's great news nevertheless for members who couldn’t manage to create their own shortcut.;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
FWIW - good to go on CM 12.1 and AOSP MM with Nova launcher.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
FYI, still all good with the recently-released Play Store 7.5.08.M.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Believe the author has moved on; busy with life.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SuperSandro2000:
I don't know the exact words anymore but I think he would need to update the module with every playstore update and for that he has no time.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Ridiculous self entitled nonsense removed.

If you don't like an app anymore, or are unhappy with lack of updates, then please find another one and go quietly. Nobody owes you anything here, zero. This isn't a candy store, people have lives and get busy.

Better, go create your own work. Then you don't need to rely on others. :good:

No more disrespectful gibberish please.

Old but not dead, this module still works with the latest Play Store 7.6.x previews which have started to appear publicly. If you somehow have trouble with it, please search this thread.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
Excellent. Appreciate the confirmation and regular status updates.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Thursen:
It still works fine, but I wish there was a possibility to show when an app was updated the last time next to the expanded changelog, without having to click on it and scroll down to get this information.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DB126:
This module is no longer under active development; probably won't see any new functionality unless someone else takes over the project.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Since someone is bound to wonder: yes, it still works with the latest Play Store 7.7.x, as expected. Not bad for a supposedly "dead" module, eh? ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Thursen:
I know, it was a little suggestion, just in case. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Yes, still working with Play Store 7.8.x. Nothing new, but if I didn't post this, I'm pretty sure someone would ask... ;)

Don't you already see that info with recent Play Store versions?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mike B.:
Got Play Store 7.9.x? Yup, still good... ;)

EDIT

: Now up to Play Store 8.0.x and yes, still good to go.

Considering the apparent lack of interest from the membership, I probably won't post any more of these "updates". If you have a new Store version, try this module for yourself. I promise it won't hurt!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kzyw:
Please support for this version of Playstore

Is possible?

Thanks a lot
