[MENTION=5333435]IncognitoMan[/MENTION] - I just wanted to say thank you for this ROM! I find it works amazing for me. XBMC streaming has been rock solid and features/performance only goes up each update, thanks for keeping this rom going if nothing else, up to the current base. When I first got my Ouya I could not stand it, now with CWM/Root, play store, this rom and XBMC I turn it on all the time. You're work is greatly appreciated.

I did have a bit of a scare last night though, I had a bad flash I think from a bad download and it would not boot up. Luckily ADB still worked so i could adb reboot recovery and sideload a new download of this rom, all is well now :D

P.S. - Is the theme the only reason the rom is de-odexed. I know this will always be a big debate for android but I've recently ODEX'd my phones and can notice a decent increase in smoothness. Plus from what I understand it free's up more space on the /data partition, which I think is where downloaded games would reside, could help since we are already limited. Anyway I ask more for curiosity sake :). Would the universal odex script work on the Ouya? I don't dare try, in fear I'd end up with a paper weight cube lol

It appears that the stock 1.0.439 OTA update broke ES File Explorer. Can anyone confirm whether or not ES works in the latest version of StockPlus?
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Yes and no... Yes part of that reason is for the theme... the other part is the modifications needed to be done to patch parts of the ouya apks.

Haven't tried ES File Explorer but could you give me a logcat of how it "breaks" and then I should be able to tell you why or how it breaks.

-------

Also big thanks to invisiblek for hosting the file... and as such I fixed the updater so that now you can factory reset and log in no problem. So expect it in the next release along with some other patches.
[Ouya Android Development] kronix:
Looked up how to get a logcat. Should've been easy to do since I've had the drivers and adb set up for quite a while, but then I discovered my OUYA is no longer even recognized by my computer since the last update. Windows doesn't even recognize that I've plugged in a device.

It happens 100% of the time when trying to start ES, and other users have reported that ASTRO file manager was broken as well. I'll try to use an app to get a log later.

Thanks.
[Ouya Android Development] kronix:
Since the micro-usb on my ouya also stopped working with the latest OTA update, I used catlog to get these logs. I rebooted the ouya, ran ES File Explorer, it force closed as soon as I ran it, then I started up catlog and searched for estrong since it's part of the process name for ES Explorer. I installed ASTRO and did the same since I've seen other users report that this update broke it as well.

I've attached the logs for both. Thanks for the help.
[Ouya Android Development] Oscar_david:
Reading through the ZG thread made me remember a feature suggestion. (I use this ROM, not ZG)

Is it possible to make the volume controls work? I use a USB keyboard, and I like the convenience of the volume buttons. The level bar shows up, but no change is made.. Though if I go down all the way, it does mute it.

TY.

Cheers

BTW, what made me remember (from the other thread) was the request for brightness control... I don't know if that works on this ROM , but that'd be a nice add too if it doesn't.
[Ouya Android Development] HashBrownJM:
Quick question:

Obviously, you've disabled the OUYA auto-updating feature to keep them from breaking your hard work. Is the only way for me to get your updates to keep checking this thread, download the file, push it to the OUYA, and flash it through recovery?

Thanks! Loving this ROM so far! The OUYA interface with darker colors is killer, and I love being able to install my apps from the Google Play Store!
[Ouya Android Development] GiBraiNe:
The ES File Explorer issue is not caused by this ROM but by the OTA update, I have the same issue and have not installed this ROM yet. I was able to open an older version of ES File Explorer, then got a message to update it, and a new version of ES File Explorer was installed, this new version is not working (closes as soon as I open it). I'll try to find a backup of the previous version to see if it works.

Update: Works!, uninstall version 3.0.5.2 and install the previous version 3.0.5.1. You can download it here:

ESFileExplorer3.0.5.1.apk (4.2 MB)

https://mega.co.nz/#!dwEA1I4A!O4MjQmkLa8ztZ8kEynpCaVvGdvsCGkQFztuWodOqReo
[Ouya Android Development] kronix:
I can confirm that this is not an issue with this ROM. I was originally asking if anyone had checked to see if maybe it would work correctly with this ROM, and the developer decided to be awesome and offered to look at the logcats.

3.0.5.1 Does indeed work with the latest OTA update, so it seems to be an issue between the latest OTA and 3.0.5.2. ASTRO compatibility was also broken by the latest OTA, haven't had a chance to check if an older version will work for now.

I'll definitely be switching over to Stockplus soon as I do a lot of streaming through XBMC and youtube and I've heard it's a bit smoother with with this ROM.

can anyone get asphalt 8 to run? it force closes on me but works on my Nexus 7?
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
i was just thinking the same about asphalt 8, i bought it the same day it came out from my OUYA and it just kicks my out of the game when it checks the license. does asphalt 7 work on the ouya with the controller? cause if it does i will buy it too for $0.99...
[Ouya Android Development] Lord_Xovon:
it does work but you cannot steer..
[Ouya Android Development] HashBrownJM:
Does anyone have an external USB drive (either thumb drive or external HDD) working? The OUYA detects mine as sdcard1, but says there is nothing on it (which is not true). I'm using a 32GB Cruzer Fit formatted to FAT32.
[Ouya Android Development] frigidazzi:
Mine works fine, but it shows up under hdd not sdcard. Try to go to mount folder and you should see it show up. Also try to reboot the ouya if you plugged it in while the ouya was on.
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
really? i bought Asphalt 7 for $0.99 also, and it works till i choose a car and go to start the race and POW! it kicks me out of the game :(, this really suck, i really want to play them both and they won't work thank god i only paid $0.99 for them...
[Ouya Android Development] robinscp:
FYI

The Ouya has a new update out.
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
i've heard A LOT of people reporting having problems with the new update...i've been thinking about updating it but those reported problems keeps me from doing so, with my luck i'll try to update the ouya and watch it have issue tho i've been pretty lucky no to have any issues what so ever with anything i've done to the console PLUS i don't feel like re-rooting the ouya all over again just update it to this pointless crappy update unless it offered external storage( which it didn't)...
[Ouya Android Development] ph1nn:
Just wait for StockPlus to update :)
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
yeah i could, but i'll wait plus i just updated my console like an idiot and now my PC won't even show my OUYA on USB debug but if i uncheck the USB debug box at the developer options on my OUYA then my PC recognizes it:(...i knew it, i knew it :mad:
[Ouya Android Development] Deen0X:
Hi!

i have a suggestion.

after doing many testing with CIFS (you can check my CIFS&BIND thread), i want to suggest to change the CIFS manager by Mount Manager (free version)

i get so many problems accessing large files using CIFS manager, that i don´t get with Mount Manager.

And, if you want to hear more suggestions:

- include Directory Bind with the StockPlus Rom

- include Tincore Keymapper

- include another launcher (NOVA in example), and add the icons for OUYA launcher on the desktop. this way, users may change between a normal Android scenario (with NOVA launcher or similar) and OUYA scenario

- include FULL!SCREEN app, to add some functionality to corners (in absent of status bar). I use this to assign Back, Home, Task List and Message Systems.

- Add Ouya Alternative Market (or similar), to avoid the need of update when ouya release a new firmware.

For now, these are my suggestions for StockPlus firmware.

Greetings!

all of a sudden my OUYA sound has stopped working, really weird - anyone had this issue (trying to work out whether its ROM related or just my box)
[Ouya Android Development] meber:
If you use xbmc sometimes your sound gets muted, I read this in another thread. You need to goto settings > Sound and unmute it.
[Ouya Android Development] AzzaD:
awesome, thanks that fixed it for me - was really scratching my head about what I'd done
[Ouya Android Development] jamiefff:
Just want to know if a update will come out soon as ouya had a update a few days go.... great work... good rom too
[Ouya Android Development] TadeoNYC:
I've been waiting on an update and I'm still on 1.0.409. Is there any reason to update 1.0.439 in the interim?
[Ouya Android Development] ph1nn:
Well it's a rebase to 439 so it would include the changes from OUYA, which are always placed on their Forums under Announcements:

http://forums.ouya.tv/discussion/2442/odk-1-0-7-and-firmware-1-0-439-minor-update-to-1-0-459
[Ouya Android Development] TadeoNYC:
Should have checked that first, but my question was more generalized towards whether or not the new features were really that much of an improvement and justify the update. I use Nova Prime, so it is pretty useless to me unless the downloads are significantly improved.
[Ouya Android Development] BlissfulBeast:
I have two questions I couldn't find the answers to.

1. If I am already on another ROM and I want to switch to StockPlus should I just erase cache and dalvik cache and flash or should I delete the ROM first, then wipe the caches and flash the new ROM?

2. If an update comes out for the Ouya and I want the benefits of the update but don't want to permanently lose root, what is the process for this?

Will apps/files disappear or become corrupt if I do the Ouya update. Is re-rooting as simple as running the Ouya auto-root apk?

Thanks in advanced.
[Ouya Android Development] TadeoNYC:
I think you need to install stock and then flash this Rom over it.

You should wait for StockPlus to be updated. The OUYA updates may disable some mods.
[Ouya Android Development] billouetaudrey:
But no news of the dev so don't know if we'll have update a day...

[Ouya Android Development] TadeoNYC:
I hadn't realized how long incognitoman has been MIA. I installed some of the mods for gameloft the other day and it is working well for now. I really hope he is still developing this Rom, I don't want to flash stock and start over.

I'm not sure why there is a warning about not doing a factory reset, so best not to do it.
[Ouya Android Development] nchantmnt:
atm factory reset will soft brick your device as it will start some update process and will hang on searching for updates. the only thing you can do then is get to recovery and flash stock, start once, login, etc and then install rom
[Ouya Android Development] TadeoNYC:
The next update(?) should include the option to enable updating so that those who wish to to stop running it can reset and install OTAs. I feel locked in to this Rom for the moment.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
I've been quite busy so I haven't had much time to update this rom.... not only that but the current 459 build brings *nothing* new to the rom really...

IMO 409 is probably the better of the 2... 439 introduced the updates to the launcher which causes some slowdowns in the interface... but again this is just in my opinion.

The first one is prevented by the fact that 459 is out so flashing 459 OTA and then trying to flash 439 over it will cause issues... so sorry about that...

As for the second one... when you flash it youll lose pretty much every feature of this rom except what i have installing to data/app. what I will say is that if you DO use auto-root apk to regain root make sure the theme is disabled because it will probably cause issues ( OUYA likes making small changes to their overlay which can cause FC's to occur.

Again like I said above I've been busy and 459 didnt bring anything new to the table.

Rinse and repeat of what i said above...

The warning comes from the fact that updater being disable causes issues with account login which will loop at connection screen. ( since it can not connect to the update server it automatically assumes that you arnt connected )

Bingo!

You are not locked out of OTA's with this rom... just download latest OTA, copy it over, and install it through CWM ( being sure to wipe the usual caches )

Once back in before you root make sure to remove the leftover stuff in data/app ( namely my theme and xtheme engine because itll probably cause issues when turned on )

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

Again I've been pretty busy with life in general so I haven't had time to work on much. Although what I have done is what I mentioned before which is:

-Fixed updater fully to connect to my own update server ( thank Invisiblek for hosting! ). This fixes the issues with factory reset.

-Compiled kernel to new base and with linaro 4.7

-Included Invisiblek's sysrq key combo to get into recovery much easier

Theres other things done but need more testing...

I've also been more focused on the idea of a "portable" installation. But I'll leave that for another time.

Again sorry for the lack of updates just that I've been pretty busy lately.

A linaro compiled kernel should be interesting :good: Just curious, why not linaro 4.8?

I did play with linaro builds on my Android phones and it usually caused a couple weird issues, it might be better on a device like this though. Wonder how it might improve performance.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Havent tried with 4.8... only went with what was pointed out to working so far.

Improvement wise I didnt do a whole lot of testing except with benchmarks... it seems with the linaro kernel im getting more consistent scores over regular gcc 4.3.3 and 4.7 and havent run into any issues *yet*.

I've been more focused ( as time allows ) on cm10.2 porting efforts while I wait for a more worthwhile firmware update from ouya.

[Ouya Android Development] Skater4599:
I was going to say same thing as poster above me, Thanks so much for doing this ROM IncognitoMan its MUCH appreciated!
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Update:

So a bit overdue for this update but its released now.

A few notes:

Please do factory reset from CWM... since the updater is now correctly fixed up doing factory resets does not cause issues with logins or getting stuck at the connection screen.

The theme is getting separated because it'll be ( hopefully depending on time ) receiving updates to fix the last remaining things with it before I add it back in as a system theme.

Although the updated Xposed installer looks different everything still applies the same in post install instructions.

And with that the Install instructions also are slightly updated to include Wipe data/factory reset.

I'll probably only update this ROM every milestone or major feature addition that OUYA brings... If you don't see a ROM based on latest update chances are it didn't bring much anything to the table.

Also in regards to the mouse buttons being mapped more like a normal pc mouse would act... I've been having issues with that and so the fix has not been included in this update.
[Ouya Android Development] BlissfulBeast:
WooHoo! No Brick! But, anybody else experiencing broken wifi?

Luckily with the TheWiz(c) Version 1.00 30.07.13 I was able to kick back into recovery in spite of being stuck on the connect to wifi screen.

I'm thinking wiping the rom may not be a good step... just the cache.

Rolling back to previous version. Will try again without wiping and report back.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Sigh... I forgot to check wifi ( I run wired all the time )

I'll try to get a new one out as quickly as possible. ( hopefully hour or less )

Extremely sorry about this.

All Good...

Great Install - I chose not to do a full factory and it's all good!

Feedback - it would be 'nice' if during the CWM install there was some progress indication - with the overscan it's a question of pressing the install button and waiting for CWM to come back !
[Ouya Android Development] kenkiller:
So I take it updating to this from a previous version of this rom won't require a factory reset?
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
I'll put something in for next release to make it a little clearer when install finishes.

The reason why I said to do a factory reset is because my previous updates copy stuff to /data/app that might cause conflicts... to make it so these things persist even after factory resets i had to move them to /system/app

If you install without factory reset and notice issues just try to do a factory reset and the problems should be gone.
[Ouya Android Development] Skater4599:
Installed with full factory reset via CWM last night and resetup my stuff. Everything worked like a charm and the Ouya seems a bit snappier now. I never use the crap sub par WiFi either so I never noticed it did not work lol. At any rate, thanks for the update IncognitoMan :D
[Ouya Android Development] Il_Padrino:
Hello, I have the older version of this rom and its fantastic. To update to this recent one do I need to be on the Ouya Official Rom or does it update like in the smarphones?

Thank you.
[Ouya Android Development] ph1nn:
Running the new build, did full factory reset as IncognitoMan recommends. I'm not sure what's in the fixed build but everything works great on mine.

It's a shame all the emulators don't store the configs with the ROMs because it was a bit of a pain to resetup all the controls, otherwise it's worth it for the new build.
[Ouya Android Development] kenkiller:
Thanks, but since you said that CWM reset is fixed in the current version, if I do CWM reset before it's even flashed (as per your instructions) that would cause issues wouldn't it?
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
It's more or less that the reset with the old firmware would cause connection/login issues during setup... So if you use this current one I'd suggest to do the factory reset and wiping the usual caches before flashing the rom.

Nope... no need to flash the official rom first.

At this point its pretty much like any install now... Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik cache, install rom, reboot.

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

Again to point this out.... the reason why I recommend to do the factory reset ( with it being patched now ) is that I moved certain apps that were once in data/app to system/app to make it so that even with factory resets the apps would stay persistent.

If you don't want to do it you can try just wiping the caches and installing... but if you run into problems just do a factory reset and it should be good to go.
[Ouya Android Development] BlissfulBeast:
Thank you for the Wifi fixed version, works fine now. I successfully restored from a backup which of course forced my OUYA to auto update to the latest OTA. Ran the root app and rooted in seconds. Went back into recovery and only wiped regular cache and delvik cache and installed the ROM. Works perfectly for me, no error messages. I would recommend changing the instructions on the 1st page to only wipe if problems arise. With wiping you lose all your apps, settings etc.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
You shouldn't restore a backup from an older firmware... that's just asking for problems...
[Ouya Android Development] Oscar_david:
running latest version of this rom. it's at its best and running really smooth. but i've got a major problem with xbmc.

so what's happening is: video plays really jerky; stop and go like. and there is no sound at all. as xbmc is one of the main things i run, i hope there is a fix... or in any case if i've done something wrong i'm not aware of, hopefully someone can guide me.

thanks.

*sigh* same problem with netflix.

....

and... youtube won't play videos at all.

so i guess it's anything to to with video.
[Ouya Android Development] BlissfulBeast:
Try a different XBMC version: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=development_builds
[Ouya Android Development] TwitchyEye:
Maybe it's a wifi speed issue. Whenever I first set up Netflix it looked like crap and there was no sound but I let it run for a while and it got better. I was getting very slow wifi speeds though and that was the issue.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
In regards to wifi issues... what routers/modes are you running?

I've come to find that the OUYA's bluetooth and the wifi networks around it tend to cause all sorts of havoc. This mostly affects the 2.4ghz bands but basically because bluetooth operates at 2.4ghz and wireless networks ( B and G for example ) also work on 2.4ghz this tends to cause issues.

OUYA should have some form of coexistence "built-in" to not cause these issues but it appears not to. It's also the only device in the house that shows these issues with bluetooth and wifi ( I stil run old routers ).

I'll get around to seeing if theres a solution that can be brought in at some point in time.
[Ouya Android Development] HT123:
I have been struggling to find an answer to the wifi issue as well with no luck. I personally run an older WNDR3300 with dd-wrt on it. I went so far as to borrow one from work and enable wds on it to get a stronger signal to my living room. It didn't do any good ( was still stuck at about 2 down while i could get 4 up consistently). All the sudden the Ouya connects and starts getting 9 down (which is still about 5 lower then any other device). Then a couple days ago it all just fell apart. It dropped back down to 1 or 1.5 and i turned it and went back to the appletv-1.

By the way, Bluetooth had not been used as it was left in xbmc and controlled via the xbmc remote app. I hadn't paired the controller in days.

It is the inconsistency that kills me. If i could get a consistent problem then chances are there is a consistent fix but as it is, one time i get good speeds then 5 minutes alter i get horrible speed.

Anyway, sorry for the rant. Your ROM is the sole reason my Ouya does not boot directly to CM 10. Thank you. Your work is very much appreciated.
