Creating an Options Menu in Android

Question

I'm trying to make an option menu in android like this link http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/menus.html#options-menu

but my developed menu shows not on bottom of my page but in top action bar.

my xml is bellow my_options_menu.xml

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+id/new_game"
          android:icon="@drawable/menu_addnew"
          android:title="Νέο"
          android:showAsAction="ifRoom"/>
    <item android:id="@+id/help"
          android:icon="@drawable/menu_addnew"
          android:title="Βοήθεια" />
</menu>

and my java code is

   @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu){

         MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
         inflater.inflate(R.menu.my_options_menu, menu);
          return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        // Handle item selection
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case R.id.new_game:
                //newGame();
                return true;
            case R.id.help:
                //showHelp();
                return true;
            default:
                return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
        }
    }

What can I do to show the menu on bottom of my application and not on top action bar?

This page should answer any questions you have: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html under "Using split action bar" should be all the information you need to add the menu items to the bottom of your page
