Many Android devices do not have a MENU button. Most tablets do not
have a MENU button. The Galaxy Nexus does not have a MENU button.

If you are using standard options menus and you are showing the action
bar, then they will continue to work (the action bar will have a ...
button for devices that lack a MENU button to access your menu). Or,
if you are using standard options menus and your targetSdkVersion is
set to 10 or lower, the user can get at your menu (e.g., via a menu
button in the system bar on tablets). If, on the other hand, you used
the MENU button for other purposes, or are not showing the action bar
with a targetSdkVersion of 11 or higher, that would explain some of
your difficulty.
