Device is pre-rooted, but only lets you do stuff via terminal. I didn't find a way to install Superuser/busybox on Mac, so I decided to make a simple guide. Took me all of 3min to complete, well since I already had the sdk and everything else installed.
You'll need this Superuser.apk, su binary and busybox.apk, dL the files from here http://d-h.st/BBk, once you have the files installed and launch Superuser it will ask you to update the binary, just click yes. Place the 3 files in your sdk/platform-tools folder.
Open Terminal cd sdk/platform-tools
On your Desktop go to Go…Go to Folder and type ~/.android, open adb_usb.ini and add 0x2836 to that file, save and close.
To verify it's listed:
./adb kill-server
echo 0x2836
./adb start-server
./adb devices
Your device should be listed here. If you want wireless adb access so you're not always hooked up to the console do the following, make sure your device is still connected via usb:
./adb tcpip 5555
unplug console
./adb connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (this is the ip of your console, this is listed under manage…system…console info, should be the second line)
You're set, now you can install apps wirelessly to your OUYA console. You need to make the console read/write to do this do the following
./adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/UDA
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/CAC
Now we will install su binary, superuser and busybox
./adb push su/system/bin/su /sdcard/su
./adb shell
su
cat /sdcard/su > /system/xbin/su
ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
exit
exit
./adb install com.koushikdutta.superuser.apk
./adb install stericson.busybox.apk
Should be up and running, if this helped you please thank me or donate a couple bucks
