I tried the app_process fix mentioned above, but mine still just force closes.

In logcat, i get:

But, do you think is it possible to use this play store :

Should be fine on play store 4.1.10
[Ouya Android Development] WonderEkin:
Try run app_process in the adb shell, did you see something like below?

pls check if the "Play Store Mod For Ouya" is enabled in the Xposed Installer

and post your /data/xposed/debug.log also, thanks
[Ouya Android Development] darthcircuit:
That seems to have been the problem. I thought I enabled your mod, but it was unchecked. It seems to be working now. Thanks!

Can someone make a flashable zip of this?

I'm already rooted and have custom recovery installed.

Anyone else notice that you have to keep the play store app open in order to actually download anything? I thought my games would download overnight, but they didn't do anything until I checked on them this morning and they started downloading all over again.
[Ouya Android Development] gianptune:
This is a tradeoff for the "kill apps as soon as they go out of focus" setting that is enabled on ouya to make game performance better. They did it to make sure users didn't have some apps running in the BG that made the big AAA games lag and then start *****ing that the games sucked when its really the stupid users' fault for running all that stuff in the first place.
[Ouya Android Development] XblackdemonX:
imo this is the right way to do it
[Ouya Android Development] faxanidu:
make sure on the exposed app you click install :) then reboot, then enable, then reboot again.
[Ouya Android Development] Predator04:
when installing xposed (XposedInstaller_2.1.4.apk ) that is the right file right? i get cannot read /data/xposed/modules.whitelist anyone know what im doing wrong? thanks!!
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
Yeah, the more I thought about how the Ouya framework operated after posting, I realized that was likely the case.

Makes perfect sense for a game console - kill/freeze the application so you don't have crap running that kills performance. You're generally doing only one thing at a time.

Ouya native downloads background fine, but that's because the launcher IS the store as well.

Eventually we'll see custom roms with tags like MULTITASK ENABLED and such. Play's probably the only thing I'd want backgrounded anyway.
[Ouya Android Development] Oscar_david:
yup... been meaning to install a task killer, actually... cause i'd rather not kill apps as soon as they go out of focus. i'm just used to the way things work in android. but i do like having the 'control' to kill apps when i want.
[Ouya Android Development] tfaulk88:
Thanks a million, works great for me I'm loving it.
[Ouya Android Development] WonderEkin:
are your ouya rooted? any superuser app installed?
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
Would that actually keep the apps from closing? As soon as you tag the Ouya button to go to the homescreen, anything you'd be running would stop.

The "fix" would probably be a different or modified launcher.
[Ouya Android Development] Predator04:
yes. yes. i think it has something to do with permissions?

i get a error updating SU. no code or anything just says error.
[Ouya Android Development] altimax98:
You can change this in the developer options and disabling this feature. If you encounter any issues afterwards just re-enable it and your good to go.

The option is called "Dont keep background activities"
[Ouya Android Development] Oscar_david:
there's a setting .. untick it. anyway, nova launcher. but there are widgets that'll kill background apps -- they do what you'd do if you went into Manage Apps, and stopped the apps there. just haven't got around to it cause so far i haven't really pushed the console too much anyway.

cheers.

edit: the setting is: developer options / apps / don't keep activities. (towards the bottom). Just untick that, and your processes won't be killed automatically.

finally got everything working. just a question. what happens if we update apps/ games? will we lose controller support or anything? like i see plez and shadowgun updates but im not sure if i should install them?
[Ouya Android Development] simpelsense:
I haven't tried yet but shadowgun in playstore has build in controller support. Have played it before with ps3 controller, so I think there will be no problem.
[Ouya Android Development] afrome:
I am having the same problem I get into the play store but it keeps timing out and the play store module under the xposed installer is not allowing me to put a check mark it just says this module does not provide a user interface how can I correct this?
[Ouya Android Development] BUS DR1V3R:
Use the trackpad on the Ouya controller to tick the box. Then reboot again.
[Ouya Android Development] XblackdemonX:
Dude it works great! thank you very much for your hard work :highfive:

Edit: it doesn't download the game files though but i'm not sure if that's possible to fix:confused:

Thanks. My Ouya is actually usefull now!
[Ouya Android Development] BenG321:
Everything works fine, but as soon as the Ouya boots, "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped" appears. This seems to also happen at random moments. Apps that require play work though. Anyone else experiencing this? Using Nova launcher.

[Ouya Android Development] afrome:
I got that at first but after ticking the box under the xposed installer I left mine on for two hours on the google store with no issues the only thing was when I tried to install the additional files for the dark knight it would not download unless I was on WIFI

On a different notes does anyone know how to get the usb drives to work I need to be able to install my big android games that are more than 500mb.
[Ouya Android Development] ghneko:
I managed to get my Play Store up and running, however upon selecting install on my applications, they all automatically go straight to INSTALLING, but don't progress past there.

I'm currently on ethernet and I'm wondering if that makes a difference. I'll put myself on wifi and see how it goes.

EDIT: I took out my ethernet cord, turn on wifi, and all my downloads started just fine.

Anyone try shadowgun on playstore ? Work but can't define action controller...

Envoyé depuis mon Galaxy Nexus en utilisant Tapatalk 4 Beta
[Ouya Android Development] Asadullah:
Hey I just made this update zip for the google play store. What it does is move the google files to system app and installs the xposed apk and the mod apk you'll have to start them. I'm gonna try and find out if I'm able to install the xposed framework without the apk but you'll still have to install the mod but that's later :)

Also this update zip installs superuser and the su binary as an added bonus. I figure this'll be good for the beginners And lastly I haven't tested this and don't plan on it until I finish this game of shadowgun. It's not that risky but I have to restore to stock to fully test it. here's the link Flash like normal

Also I was able to map out my controller on shadowgun minus the action controller but everything works

Installing Play stops Ouya FF3 from working

Sent from my rooted Nook HD+
[Ouya Android Development] Asadullah:
Yeah I've noticed a few other apps now not working since installing the play store. Most likely they were just recompiled to fit the ouya standards to get on their store. I've had issues though with ff3 for awhile now I'm glad I haven't purchased it yet.
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
Has anyone been able to buy an app/game from Ouya since installing the Play store? I've not been able to, I get an error about not being able to reach the server.

Well, it says it can't process the payment, and when I go to re-enter payment details, then it tells me it can't reach the server.

I think he's having the same problem as me. Access to the market but unable to download apps. I have 2-step authentification enabled on my Google account and when I launch the Google Settings app and check my signed-in apps I have that same answer.

"Can't establish a reliable connection to the server."

I would like to try this, but how do I flash an executable zip on Ouya ? Do I have to install a custom recovery ?
[Ouya Android Development] goo200:
I'm having both these problems as well. It seems there are some conflicts between the OUYA launcher and google play. Everything seem to still work though, apart from a few interruptions while using netflix.
[Ouya Android Development] Asadullah:
I'm wondering if removing the ouya launcher will help or worsen the problem

Also [MENTION=2948573]Darksa[/MENTION]ian yes you would have to install a custom recovery
[Ouya Android Development] WonderEkin:
I can't find an ouya app to buy yet, try disable the mod in the xposed installer, reboot and try again.
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
I actually just tried it with another app, it works fine.

Interesting little tidbit: installing Canabalt HD from the Humble Bundle will act as if it's the one downloaded from the Ouya store, but not yet purchased. Trying to purchase it fails.

I bought Towerfall without a problem.
[Ouya Android Development] dark_saian:
I would like to retry this part of the manual install but adb won't give me the permission, saying that /system is read only.

What can I do to retry ?
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
Make sure you run the line that goes

mount -orw,remount /system

That should remount /system as read/write.
[Ouya Android Development] dark_saian:
1|shell@android:/ $ mount -orw,remount /system
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory

And even if I try as a superuser in adb shell, I got :

1|shell@android:/ $ su mount -orw,remount /system
Cannot execute -orw,remount: Permission denied

The weirdest thing is at the time the line above appear in the terminal, I have a message on the TV screen saying "Superuser granted to shell", which is confirmed by the Superuser app log.
[Ouya Android Development] gianptune:
You've broken something somewhere along the way. Did you happen to follow one of the many poorly written 1-click-fail-scripts floating around the Ouya forums? It seems that /system/etc/mkshrc is calling for the program `id` which is usually a symlink in /system/bin/id that points to /system/bin/toolbox. Maybe you did something to break the id symlink or the toolbox binary it points to. `mount` is also *usually* a simlink from /system/bin/mount to toolbox. this says you somehow broke that one, too.

At any rate, it looks like you are actually getting a root shell, hence the '#' prompt.
[Ouya Android Development] dark_saian:
I did try the following scripts :

- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2272266 for rooting my Ouya

- the one provided at the beginning of this topic for the Google Play hack

- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2295645 and this one in an unseccessful attempt to flash a CWM based recovery.

After all that, I did several factory resets but found that the Google Play and Google Settings apps were still installed since they are system apps.

How can I do a true reset of the firmware, which will hopefully solved my broken root problem ?
[Ouya Android Development] muriani:
Basic answer, you'll need to reload the stock image from recovery.

You can get the latest Ouya stock image from https://ouyafw.skumler.net/

I don't know if you can use the stock recovery to flash it, the first thing I did was get CWM installed before I touched anything on mine.

Someone else might know more on that.

I have installed Xposed and this play store mod but I am getting connection timed out when launching the play store. Here is my logcat. http://pastebin.com/5Tp6y0nM

I went back into Exposed are re-ran the installer and then rebooted. Once the ouya came back up I went back into google play and the license agreement screen appeared. Once I accepted the license, google play store loaded without issue.
[Ouya Android Development] evaporic:
Working Perfectly!!

You may need to avoid ADB so you don't run into errors.

Instead:

1.	Sideload xposedinstaller and install from ES File explorer

2.	open XposedIntaller, click install/update then reboot

3.	Sideload Mod_PS4Ouya.apk

4.	open XposedInstaller and enable PS4Ouya

5.	reboot

6.	sideload google apks in files to push folder

7.	use file explorer to move apks to system app

8.	change permissions of sideloaded apks to chmod 644

9. Reboot

[MENTION=531561]WonderEkin[/MENTION] 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
[Ouya Android Development] kenkiller:
You can be pretty sure it will be deleted over there in a timely fashion.
[Ouya Android Development] Asadullah:
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
[Ouya Android Development] kenkiller:
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.
[Ouya Android Development] Asadullah:
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.
