3 dot overflow menu not showing up

[ReneVella]

Since upgrading the app to SDK 28 it seems that the 3dot overflow menu is not showing up and therefore i lost the menu in my app. Appreciate any suggestions to rectify this issue ?

here is my code

package com.example.myapplication2;

import org.andengine.engine.camera.Camera;
import org.andengine.engine.options.EngineOptions;
import org.andengine.engine.options.ScreenOrientation;

import org.andengine.entity.scene.Scene;
import org.andengine.entity.scene.background.Background;
import org.andengine.entity.scene.menu.MenuScene;
import org.andengine.entity.scene.menu.MenuScene.IOnMenuItemClickListener;
import org.andengine.entity.scene.menu.item.IMenuItem;
import org.andengine.entity.scene.menu.item.SpriteMenuItem;
import org.andengine.entity.sprite.Sprite;
import org.andengine.entity.util.FPSLogger;
import org.andengine.opengl.texture.TextureOptions;
import org.andengine.opengl.texture.atlas.bitmap.BitmapTextureAtlas;
import org.andengine.opengl.texture.atlas.bitmap.BitmapTextureAtlasTextureRegionFactory;
import org.andengine.opengl.texture.region.ITextureRegion;
import org.andengine.ui.activity.SimpleBaseGameActivity;

import android.opengl.GLES20;

Hey man, it's been a couple years since I stopped working on this project. Sounds like you'd be better off asking in a general Android forum.
