How to Install


  1. Follow the install instructions for CWM from here
  2. Push the patch to /sdcard/ ( use adb push, copy it over via usb, etc.... )
  3. Install the patch
  4. Reboot!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Post-Install

  1. Go to MAKE -> Software -> Superuser, it'll prompt you to install. Accept.
  2. Go to Xposed Installer ( same place as Superuser ) and under Framework click Install/Update, afterward go to
    Modules section and make sure to check "Play Store Mode For Ouya [1.0]". Go back and reboot.
  3. After reboot you should be able to setup Play Store and everything else should be setup and good to go!

-=FAQ=-

How do I mount my shares? ( or how to not get error messages or empty folders )
You'll need to set the option "unc=\\\\put.ip.address.here\\name,noperm" without quotation marks.

Google Play Services randomly FC's while not open.
OUYA doesn't like apps running in the background so it kills them to reduce issues with games you may be playing.

I keep getting "This module does not provide a user interface" error.

Using the touchpad on the OUYA, hover over the checkbox and tap it to "check" the module.




How do I change the wallpaper?
  1. Copy the wallpaper you wish to use to "/sdcard/CONFIG/" ( or use a direct link image... see bellow )
  2. Open the file "THEME" found in "/sdcard/CONFIG/" with a text editor of choice
  3. Replace the name of the .jpg ( or .png ) to the one that you copied over to "/sdcard/CONFIG/"

    For example... if I copied over a wallpaper called "wallpaperformyouya.png" the line would change to look like this:

    Code:
    "background":"http://localhost/wallpaperformyouya.png"
    Alternatively you can also use a direct link like an imgur link...
    Code:
    "background":"http://i.imgur.com/Gs16J2V.png"
  4. Save it back to the OUYA and reboot.

Hey man. Thanks for that :)
But I have two questions:
- Are all mods from your awesome StockPlus ROM integrated here? I'm asking especially because of PS3 Controller support.
- The patch is for the Stock ROM, right? Could you provide a few instructions how to install Stock ROM over StockPlus?

Thanks in advance and again:
Awesome work man :)

Yes, the only one that's not included is xtheme engine because I'd need to remake the theme since there's quite a lot of changes.

It is... the easiest method of upgrading would be to download 1.2.858 from here and copy it to /sdcard/

Once in /sdcard/ reboot into cwm -> install zip from sdcard -> choose "RC-OUYA-1.2.858-r1_ota.zip" and flash it. Then go back into install zip from sdcard and install "SPP_1.2.858_RC1.zip" over it.

Not a problem for me, haven't used it before :)

That's easy man. I thought the OTA update would overwrite the recovery or something.

And what about further OTA updates? Will OUYA automatically perform updates or is that disabled by your patch?
I don't want to accidentally lose your Plus-Features, because of new OUYA ota update.

Ahh that's right... you'll need to reflash cwm after applying the OTA update. My apologies as I forgot about that. ( maybe I'll add cwm to the patch so even if you apply an OTA it'll reinstall cwm. )

In terms of updating it's now user controllable... lets say an update comes out and it's one you want to move to and don't mind loosing any features... you can switch to using their update by changing whats in "UPDATE" to represent the latest info. By default though it's setup to not update.

Mmh, isn't the recovery on a special recovery partition?
I don't think it's flashable via a zip file, as normally you flash the whole img.
Anyways it's not a problem for me to fastboot flash cwm again after installing ota. So thanks again. :)

EDIT: Well, just read it IS possible to flash via zip, sry sry sry.

Great, that's what I want :)

Can't wait to get home for flashing, hehe :cool:

How do you get Netflix to stream in good quality without the HDMI external display option that was available on the old ROM?

In CWM when you select reboot and get prompted "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. FIX?" did you make sure to select no? As it sounds like you are selecting yes which actually kills what I'm hooking into... ( which would explain the issues with that )

Look at team ouya on that.... don't know why they did the whole "stretch to fit" but I'll look into it at some point once I get my machine back up...

-------------------------

Been busy and my old laptops GPU died ( RIP T61p ) so im pulling together parts from it and putting them into another T61... hence my inactivity.

It's not like I'm spending a lot of time in that screen :)
Quick question for you: I remember reading somewhere that Ouya will never get past JB 4.1 as it would break the BT controller functionality (I'm sketchy on details). Is that still true?
The only reason I care is because of the way Netflix handles DRM and as long as we're stuck below 4.3 we won't get HD.

It's sad to see I was able to upgrade my ancient Xoom to KitKat (used as a news reader and Sudoku machine by my GF) and even my Galaxy S (now an mp3 player) got SlimKat.

Google Play games

Has anyone been able to get the Google Play games service working on this ROM. I am getting errors trying to connect inside of games.

I selected whatever option it gave me to prevent it from reflashing. So if it said "press yes to prevent", then that's what I pressed. I can't remember what the question was for certain, but I selected the preventative option.

So is it nothing to worry about, and should I just press the opposite?

Known issue... haven't really looked into getting it to work either.

Correct... when it asks select "No" and all should work then.
