do I need to go through all 12 pages of this and read what broke for everyone and how they fixed it, modify my list of directions, and then try this, or has the OP been modified where it can be followed and things work correctly? Or is it more complicated than that and for some reason different machines have different problems? I understand some people may not follow directions correctly and that leads to their problems but I'll follow them to the tee.
[MOD][XPOSED]Google Play Store (2013/07/05)

"change permissions of sideloaded apks to chmod 644"
How this performed?
How this performed?
@WonderEkin I was thinking about posting my mod on the ouya forum since it will likely get some more attention by users. But then I was like why not just ask the man to do it himself. Would you post this on the ouya forums
You can be pretty sure it will be deleted over there in a timely fashion.
I'm wondering about that. They can but then again it's like how apple let's Google apps in their store. Honestly i don't care which store i use in the future since I've used them both. But maybe it'll help encourage them to tighten up a little. Also may bring more people to the ouya since slot of things I've read like to mention the fact that it's missing the play store
But you do realize it's not the same situation? Google apps on Apple store means more choice for Apple users.
Play Store on Ouya means Ouya can't earn a single cent of any games not bought from the Ouya store (let's be honest, this is also the reason why some games are priced so much higher compared to their Play Store versions). The only way they'll allow Play Store officially is if they abandon the entire Ouya project and not care about future earnings.
Long story short, we can hack it in, but don't even imagine Ouya supporting this hack in any form or capacity.
I'm not saying that ouya will officially support it. It would be very dumb if they did for the reasons you state. But I don't think that they will remove the thread if it's posted.My example wasn't good at all and i probably could of done better but Lets find out. No harm no foul. They remove it then it is what it is. I'm gonna post the original link I put up to get the play store on the ouya it didn't get the store to work but it still would read the license and let you play the games.
When I try to enable "Play Store Mod For Ouya" in the Xposed app, it says "This module does not provide a user interface" and doesn't do anything. Can someone help me with this one?
Click the check box, not the name. Name is config/user inferface, check box is enabling.
Alright, that worked. Guess it should have stated you need to select the checkbox (using a mouse/the touchpad). After that installing went fine.
So I've asked on the general section, but have received nonresponse.. But with this mod.. Can we sideload an older Google play? Wanted to know if play store 3.10.14 will play nice on the ouya..
Just wanted to report that it works! Yeah!
I'm happily playing my Zen Pinball tablesThank you @WonderEkin![/QUOute]
How were you able to download the tables? Been trying to restore/redownload my tables but can never make it to the download popup link... ??
*edit*
Never mind.. works great now!

Sorry, I didn't check the general section frequently.
I'm not sure will work or not, you can try.
Just side loaded older market and it works for the most part. IAP will trigger connection timeouts tho..
anybody else tried to add additional google account for this mod? -

Had the Play Store installed lost it through update , went and reinstalled it when I open the store I am asked for Market authentication message and the retry button . Have tried to clear app data and nothing works.. it still shows the my google account on the Ouya. Any advice would be great. Thanks...
I had the same problem. reinstalled everything through adb.
now play store runs, and I can browse through everything. but if I try to install anything new it works up to the point where it lists the permissions, and freezes when I try to proceed.
for apps I've previously downloaded, it gives me: error retreiving information from server. or something like that.
dunno how to proceed.

I'm seeing similar behaviour -- update occured on the OUYA -- lost SU and Playstore Mod.
Redid su, and playstore mod, enabled it in xposed, went into playstore tried to install an app , etc nothing installs just sits there. It says I'm logged in though.
