[ROM] Unofficial CM10 Experimental (7/2/2013)

IncognitoMan · Aug 27, 2013

You do know that in order for them to use the Tegra 4 it would have required them to go back and redesign, prototype, test and sample everything all over again which would have caused the ouya to be delayed for quite a few months more. ( and not just 2-3 months...I mean you MIGHT have seen it by fall or winter... )

Tegra 4 was announced in the first month of 2013...at that time they already had devkits out and had pretty much everything setup for retail production... it would make no sense to do all that just to get the Ouya with Tegra 4 or be worth the cost to pretty much scrap the original Ouya for it.

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

Anyway back on topic... basically yes there are others working on CM ports but nothing new or noteworthy to post.

Did you fix audio? i tried to change values in " audio_policy.conf " from system/etc and nothing, i've changed all 48000 to 44100, how can we fix it? Maybe changing something in " nvaudio_conf.xml " ?

Get a logcat when it's playing something that should be a good start it'll give you an idea about what's happening. What I used to do was copy/paste the error in google and search for a fix because there usually was someone who had a similar issue. The only thing is that if you wanted to fix it yourself then you had to download and compile the source code youself.
It's not really that hard but ubuntu is a pain to install

Please keep going

I installed it yesterday and worked like a charm, its not far away from out-of-the-box experience.
How we can help?

suruceanu.nick · Aug 29, 2013 at 7:19 PM

I manage to find that the problem is not the audio, its video playback ( Youtube ) , video is playng faster, i started same video at the same time both my phone ( LG P880 ) and Ouya and ended first and 7 seconds later my phone , video was 1:42, so something is wrong with playback. Also other Youtube players like NextVid, FreeVid the in the same situation.

Another problem is fullscreen, video start in fullscreen without any controls, i think this is the problem with Hdmi output I suppouse it is seted as secondary display output...

I added the following lines to my build.prop to make the interface more 'tv-like'

Code:

ro.sf.override_null_lcd_density = 1
ro.sf.lcd_density=240

I tried with lcd_density like OUYA Stock ROM but some apps dont fit on screen.

On XBMC Wiki says:

"OUYA's OS ("firmware") is currently limited to video output at 60Hz. Those with media that plays back at 50Hz might see occasional stutter."

Could this be the cause?

To make everything fit on the screen, check out this thread. Overscan problems fixed! Works perfectly with cm10.

Thanks for working on this rom. It's going to be the best!

Its not a Overscan problem (my tv has justscan option). Its more a app layout problem. eg: ad show in wrong place...

I have created a custom keychar for Ouya Game Controller.

O: DPAD_CENTER (Enter/OK)
U: MENU
Y: SEARCH
A: BACK

Just save contents on /system/usr/keychars/Vendor_2836_Product_0001.kcl

I am really interested in getting this rom... is it safe?

BenG321 · Oct 28, 2012 87 21 0

It is safe! I use it daily, and it's great! Just note that Netflix doesn't work with it yet. I'm eagerly waiting for an update! Thanks in advance, devs!

and it is the full android experience or do you still have Ouya store?

Full Android! You can install the Play Store, as it says in the instructions. No Ouya Store.

sorry to nag, but, are all the apps compatible with the ouya? do I need a touchpad keyboard? thank you.

No-one should expect any level of compatibility for this rom or any updates for that matter. Until we find a way to safely get into recovery when a rom flash goes bad theres no point in developing roms as testing them would mean soft bricking countless OUYAs. Not having a sure fire way to get to the recovery facility is just plain bad customer service.
I wonder if they can send a firmware update that just changes the timeout events to boot to recovery when the button is held down for 10 seconds. 25 seconds makes the console force shutdown as expected. I doubt the guys at OUYA really made these things modifiable after all of their marketing crap about having an open system (its really only open for developing apps for their very limited app store).

But we have that. Look at safe recovery. It automatically goes to recovery after every reboot and you need to hit the ouya button to boot into the rom.

It is safe, so why are we still being held back?

Really? It actually works now? And is it easy to install? Getting CM10.2 ported over would have its difficulties but its not outside the realms of being possible, it all depends on devs deciding they have time to work on it. If they arent already doing this the devs making roms need to share their knowledge and get into contact with each other to get a CM10.2 build working I have noticed people saying they would move on to getting CM10.2 going on the device but not much in the way of progress....maybe there should be a development thread for CM10.2 and perhaps maybe a dev willing to help get the rom to an established CM nightly status.

Safe recovery has been out for months. It hasn't got an update but it is installedeither through rrecovery or how you normally install cwm.

It has been working fine for me the entire time. And I know the guy who made safe recovery has been takingabout (in this thread) mmaking cm10.2 work for the ouya. But it was not his top priority.
