Hey I just made this update zip for the google play store. What it does is move the google files to system app and installs the xposed apk and the mod apk you'll have to start them. I'm gonna try and find out if I'm able to install the xposed framework without the apk but you'll still have to install the mod but that's later :)
Also this update zip installs superuser and the su binary as an added bonus. I figure this'll be good for the beginners And lastly I haven't tested this and don't plan on it until I finish this game of shadowgun. It's not that risky but I have to restore to stock to fully test it. here's the link Flash like normal

Also I was able to map out my controller on shadowgun minus the action controller but everything works

Everything works fine, but as soon as the Ouya boots, "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped" appears. This seems to also happen at random moments. Apps that require play work though. Anyone else experiencing this? Using Nova launcher.

I get this same error aswell.. running Nova.

Actually I get this on boot.. "Unfortunately, OUYA Launcher has stopped" but everything still works.
Any fix for this?

Installing Play stops Ouya FF3 from working

Sent from my rooted Nook HD+
Yeah I've noticed a few other apps now not working since installing the play store. Most likely they were just recompiled to fit the ouya standards to get on their store. I've had issues though with ff3 for awhile now I'm glad I haven't purchased it yet.

Has anyone been able to buy an app/game from Ouya since installing the Play store? I've not been able to, I get an error about not being able to reach the server.
Well, it says it can't process the payment, and when I go to re-enter payment details, then it tells me it can't reach the server.

cant establish reliable connection
I think he's having the same problem as me. Access to the market but unable to download apps. I have 2-step authentification enabled on my Google account and when I launch the Google Settings app and check my signed-in apps I have that same answer.
"Can't establish a reliable connection to the server."

I would like to try this, but how do I flash an executable zip on Ouya ? Do I have to install a custom recovery ?

I'm having both these problems as well. It seems there are some conflicts between the OUYA launcher and google play. Everything seem to still work though, apart from a few interruptions while using netflix.

I'm wondering if removing the ouya launcher will help or worsen the problem

Also @Darksaian yes you would have to install a custom recovery

I can't find an ouya app to buy yet, try disable the mod in the xposed installer, reboot and try again.

I actually just tried it with another app, it works fine.
Interesting little tidbit: installing Canabalt HD from the Humble Bundle will act as if it's the one downloaded from the Ouya store, but not yet purchased. Trying to purchase it fails.
I bought Towerfall without a problem.

Hi, I've built a dirty mod using Xposed framework to get Google Play store to work.

Code:
adb shell
In the shell
Code:
su
mount -orw,remount /system
cat /sdcard/com.android.vending.apk > /system/app/com.android.vending.apk
cat /sdcard/com.google.android.gms.apk > /system/app/com.google.android.gms.apk
cat /sdcard/GoogleLoginService.apk > /system/app/GoogleLoginService.apk
cat /sdcard/GoogleServicesFramework.apk > /system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk
cat /sdcard/NetworkLocation.apk > /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/com.android.vending.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/com.google.android.gms.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/GoogleLoginService.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
mount -oro,remount /system
reboot
[/LIST]

Now the Play Store should ready to work.
If you can't find the Play Store in the MAKE menu, sideload the com.android.vending.apk again.
Code:
adb install -r com.android.vending.apk
I would like to retry this part of the manual install but adb won't give me the permission, saying that /system is read only.

What can I do to retry ?

Make sure you run the line that goes
mount -orw,remount /system

That should remount /system as read/write.
Code:
1|[email protected]:/ $ mount -orw,remount /system                                 
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
And even if I try as a superuser in adb shell, I got :

Code:
1|[email protected]:/ $ su mount -orw,remount /system                              
Cannot execute -orw,remount: Permission denied

don't execute "su mount -orw,remount /system " in the same command line

first
Code:
su
then
Code:
mount -orw,remount /system

I had the timeout issue because I hadn't checked the box to enable the mod in xposed after manual install. I checked it, rebooted, now good to go. Thanks!
