[MOD] Fully Working OUYA Shield!

[twistedumbrella]

I ended up giving this a try but the launcher was crashing too often so I had to delete it. It seems like if it is working, you could probably use gamepad mapping to emulate an OUYA controller.

Edited this one rather than making a new post since it wasn't anything important.

I can't download ouya games, but signs in perfectly, did you download from the ouya appstore and run any games?

Yes i was able to download, few games accept the shields controls but did play.

I couldn't fix this so I flashed bone stock, is a pity, my ouya account had so many good paid games,but I couldn't download them

So I have a question. Will flashing this make controls just like OUYA's? For example, will Modern Combat 4 be playable like on an OUYA?

This really doesn't work. :/ I moved them all to system/app and changed the permissions rw-r--r-- then rebooted. OUYA launcher stops responding... This was the only thing that was keeping me from selling my shield, honestly. Oh well...

I believe you need to be on 4.3, flash with shield ram bone stock, them do this, won't work on 4.4 because of new securities features and ouya runs 4.3

It only works with 4.3 if you want to run this mod you will need to downgrade to 4.3

No. It will let you use the OUYA apps, but it doesn't modify the key bindings or any of the internal framework.

Agreed. A full stock reset is overkill.

Has anyone tried this on the Shield Tablet yet? If so, do you still have to mess with the DPI since the console is 1080p like the ouya?

Thx

Getting has stopped error on 4.4 tried everything.. even custom launcher.. plz halp

Has anyone tried installing to the priv-app folder instead of the app folder? That fixed V4A FX for me, so maybe it could solve this issue as well. Just a guess tho, I haven't tried it myself.
