OUYA One-Click: Driver + ROOT + Superuser + BusyBox + Sideloading + USB Fix!

The-Wiz · Aug 6, 2013

Hi!

Using this great guide of Ty Collum i create a windows batch file that will do all the hard work.

This pack has:
1. ROOT (Su Binaries + Superuser 1.0.1.8)
2. Sideload App:
2.1. BusyBox 9.6
2.2. ESFileExplorer 1.18
2.3. Flash Player 11.1.115.69
3. USB Fix
4. Windows Drivers
5. adb tool & adb driver

Installing:
1. Download zip file and Extract any place you want.
2. Connect OUYA to your computer using USB-mini and power-up OUYA.
3. Install Android Driver Manual
4. Optional: You can put under "packs" folder any apk file you want the program to install.
5. Run file "ouys_root.cmd" as administrator on your windows computer.
6. Done!

Output should be:

Q&A
Q: After system update the root will be deleted?
A: Indeed, after every system update we will need 2 root again. But don't do it automatically without watching this post. After every system update i post if it is clear to do it.

Updates:
05/08/13 1.03 - Fix SU error
01/08/13 1.02 - Remove automatic driver install
30/07/13 1.00 - Upload

I getn't post there yet (need 10 posts)...

You device is already as recovery CWD IMG. It change all patch and script will not work

I update the script but i can't change first post because no 10 posts.......

RED ZMAN · Aug 1, 2013 at 1:25 PM

^^^
We'll help you get to 10 posts.

I have a question, will this work on Windows 8 64bit?

Any additional things I need to do in that case? (Turn of driver signing, run as administrator, run in compatibility mode with Windows 3.5 or something? I hope someone reads that.)

The-Wiz · Aug 1, 2013 at 6:18 PM

It should work with win8. I didn't try.

I haven't been able to make it work, this is my output:

Did I do anything wrong? I'm quite new to both OUYA and Android...

No, I didn't, but I've been tweaking and installing some random stuff, probably that's it. Thanks anyway!

tobalaz · Aug 3, 2013

I keep failing from finding multiple emulators.
I'm pretty sure I disabled or uninstalled every other android device on windows 7 64 bit pc and it still shows.
Wouldn't load ADB on the Win8 laptop from your packet, said the .ini was a corrupt hash files.
Got it rooted and going the long way. Thanks anyways, must be my pc and 6 other Androids causing the problem.

The-Wiz · Aug 5, 2013 at 2:28 PM

I fix all problems. Should work now!

Petesky · Aug 6, 2013 at 4:44 PM

Just tried this , all working fine now cheers

Thanks for this All-in-one package!

Great to have root and especially the usb fix so easy :good:

Re-Mi · Aug 7, 2013 at 6:12 PM

Would you consider making a Mac script like this too ? I could see myself using this script all the time (after every new update, or after i screwed my ouya again

) But i'm on a fruit logo laptop.

Greetz,

Hi!

First of all: Thanks for creating this super easy script!

I'm facing the same/ similar problem as moviecut:

I did not instal CWM or any other modification, just stock OS with XBMC. Any solutions?

Thanks for this method, it's very useful for noobies.

It's working great on my ouya.

tennisbgc · May 27, 2013 90 3 0

does the usb fix just mount already supported file system formats or does it allow other formats to mount like ext3?

Bobrock 5000 · Aug 10, 2013 1 0 0

First off,

Thanks for making this for us! I just installed this morning and everything worked out well.

But when I try to access and update Superuser, I got an error. It just says "There was an error installing Superuser. Please send a log of the error to the developer."

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks! :good:
