[Q] Problems with factory reset

[heinztomato]

Hi there. After changing some Network-Settings on my Ouya and restarting it, it got stuck in a Boot-Loop.

I tried all the different "Recovery-Mode" - Options. First those that require pressing the Print-Screen (With no success)

After using the adb-way (which worked) I understood why the keyboard-method did not work. I CAN enter the recovery- menu but the keys from my keyboard just don't seem to have any effect (I cannot select any option)
I tried different keyboards

So I tried to use adb directly to wipe the data using

adb shell recovery --wipe_data

But now I receive

"/system/bin/sh: recovery: not found"

Am I missing a step?

(UPDATE) There is a "wipe" in /system/bin allowing parameters "system data all". (but no "sh" folder at all under "system/bin" I tried starting it with "all" but received errors like

rmdir() error on '/system/vendor/firmware' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/vendor/lib/drm/libdrmwvmplugin.so' 'Read-only file sy
stem'
rmdir() error on '/system/vendor/lib/drm' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/vendor/lib/libWVStreamControlAPI_L1.so' 'Read-only fi
le system'
unlink() error on '/system/vendor/lib/libwvdrm_L1.so' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/vendor/lib/libwvm.so' 'Read-only file system'
rmdir() error on '/system/vendor/lib' 'Read-only file system'
rmdir() error on '/system/vendor' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/bttest' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/dexdump' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/iperf' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/mkntfs' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/ntfs-3g' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/ntfsfix' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/xbin/su' 'Read-only file system'
rmdir() error on '/system/xbin' 'Read-only file system'
unlink() error on '/system/recovery-from-boot.bak' 'Read-only file system'
Error opendir'ing /data 'Permission denied'

I would try to run that again as su. but I am quite surprised it tries to delete essential stuff in the xbin-directory (and of course the "read-only" error. To be honest I am not brave enough.

Ok. I WAS brave enough to enter "wipe data" as su. Seems to work\o/

I will leave this post, cause others might step into the same problems.

BTW: I know what causes the problem:

Entering a "0" in an IP - Adress. I entered a DNS containing "037". This bricked my Ouya after rebooting. Entering "37" worked
