Just got a tablet with android 3.2, and im missing the menu option.

Is this not working for 3.2?

There is no menu in tablet apps. They use toolbar buttons in the title instead, and a title dropdown menu on the right if there are too many buttons.

okay,

seems just that i cant get to options/configure/search or anything on the tablet.

Normally theres a menu\option icon available if the program has that, not in tc.

I have just tested it in the Android 3.1 emulator (3.2 should be the same): There is an icon in the upper right corner with 4 horizontal lines. Tap on it, and there will be a menu labeled "Configure".

Thanks for checking, but thats not there in 3.2. I know the lines you are talking about.

Strange

Strange, the title bar is completely missing on your device!

Your button bar is messed up as well, shouldn't be the wrap at the right border?

Did you enable "auto screen rotation" in system settings?
Very few tablets have even a hardware button for that.

For reference here is a screenshot from DELL Streak 7 running Honeycomb 3.2

I removed the data, and the menu was there.

rc3 was installed fresh on a new tablet, then upgraded to rc4. Will see if it happens again.

Thanks for your feedback! Could you check in the settings whether the "full screen" option is available or not? It should be disabled on Android 3 or newer.

That option is greyed out in 3.2 for me.

Works fine on a phone with 2.3.7 cm7.

Somehow this option must have been activated by mistake. Maybe you activated it while the device was still using Android 2.x, and then updated the device to Android 3.2?

No, the tablet came with 3.2, but i know what to look for now (that option or delete data)
