Mirror?

Anyone have a mirror for the APK?

The site isn't responding and Google failed me. :-/

I know I can use the Toolbox to get root, but I like the simploicity of an onboard app.

Top 5 reasons to root your OUYA?

I literally just got my OUYA an hour ago so I'm tentative about messing with it this soon. I've been rooting and flashing ROMS onto my Android phones for a few years so am familiar with the process but I'm not familiar with what the benefits of rooting the OUYA would be??

Please convince me to root!!!

Sorry if I sound like a n00by.

Sideload means I need to install the apk from a SD or Thumbdrive USB? Or I can download it on the same browser and install it from Ouya downloads folder?

Also...

Can this will mess everything I already have in my Ouya?

How to S I D E L O A D the apk...
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
you can sideload it straight from the OUYA internet browser or you can put it on a flash drive and then get filepwn apk from the OUYA discovery or ES File Manager and search the OUYAS internal memory or external for the DOWNLOAD folder and install the Root apk from there, all done...

[Ouya Android Development] tarvoke:
just in case it hasn't been mentioned or obvious, the thing that lets this work is A VERY BAD THING. (I mean, the fact that it lets this work is awesome, and many thanks to WonderEkin for providing the application!!! but it's also a very, very dangerous exploit)

currently there are (I think) 3 separate key exploits for android. google has pushed fixes for at least 2 of them, but not all carriers/vendors (in fact verly nearly none of them) have passed them on. (install "Bluebox Security Scanner" - I think when I first ran it, the Ouya reported only 1 of the 3 exploits was protected against)

the good news is: a plugin for Xposed framework called "Master Key multi-fix" - you can get it on Play Store, or also simply scroll down the plugin list in Xposed.

after enabling this fix, Blue Box will show all 3 exploits as protected.

of course, this poses a conundrum. if you at some point in the future lose root, will xposed still let you disable the keys fix, so that you can get back root? (or maybe xposed will simply stop working, and it won't matter?)

(worse conundra: pre-key-fixes, how well do we trust anything we sideloaded from the web or e.g. f-droid? can we even trust xposed or the key fixes, or bluebox saying that the fixes worked? why yes, my work is in forensic security and I get paid to be super-paranoid.)

[Ouya Android Development] Mattthev:
You can use USB stick.

Or download it in browser, just wait a second it doesn't show if it was already download. Than use file manager, you can download some manager in OUYA store. Go to Download and here is your apk file.
[Ouya Android Development] gordesky1:
thank you:) I didint know there was a file manager in the ouya store, Downloaded file pwn which worked perfect:)
[Ouya Android Development] rkharat98:
it doesn't get installed ... why..
[Ouya Android Development] Mattthev:
You have to allow installations from other place than Google Store in Developer settings.

Sorry for being OT.

Besides the OUYA, I have the Mad Catz M.O.J.O since yesterday. Unfortunately there in no root possible at this time.

The device has a Tegra 4 and runs Android 4.2.2.

So, my thoughts are to try this app to get root access.

Unfortunately the app aborts while installing. So my question is how to make an install possible and might the exploit work on the device ?

edit:

Sideloaded the Bluebox Security Scanner and it says:

Patchstatus:

Patched for bug 8219321

Patched for bug 9695860

So I guess, this app wouldn't work anyway ?

About to buy ATV3 for the iPad Air i am about to buy to for my kid ( just because of all the apps..)

Someone wrote that after Christmas the firmware will brake the root.

Need ICS version

This apk is for 4.1 or higher version, I have a Andriod 4.0.3 smart tv box, the usb adb service and adb connect has been blocaked, can you please do me a favor to provide a apk for ICS ? many thanks!!!
[Ouya Android Development] Theraze:
How did you get ICS on your Ouya? Since you're posting on an Ouya board, I'm assuming that you somehow managed to do that... else it would really not make a ton of sense posting here, right?
[Ouya Android Development] DorkyDev:
I tried installing Eternity Rom then it forced me to OTA... Come to later find out it wiped out my CWM Recovery and now I'm back at normal recovery and after the successful OTA Root My Ouya.apk won't successfully install either. What can I do?
[Ouya Android Development] albertkinng:
I won't lie to you. As soon i rooted the Ouya and I was able to install Aptoide and PlayStore I didn't did anything more as changing Roms or stuff like that. I'm happy using the Ouya as it is with the extras. XBMC runs fine and Netflix and Hulu and Vudu and you name it! this is a little device that once rooted is a powerful console.

Try to reset it to factory settings as new and start all over again, it won't locked to you if reset to factory settings. good luck.
[Ouya Android Development] DorkyDev:
Yea that worked only annoying thing about Play Store is I can't sign in on the same account the Ouya is registered to, gotta create a new account and sign in on it, if it'll let me.
[Ouya Android Development] albertkinng:
Oh. Never thought of that. I always use the same account. Thanks for the tip!
[Ouya Android Development] DorkyDev:
GP Nags at me and says this/that user is already registered on this account/device. Something like that then takes me back to the New or Existing user page. I don't see why we can't conjoin the two.
[Ouya Android Development] albertkinng:
I really don't think you can. Remember you are using the Ouya to get the extras. If you are trying with other rom then try looking for a forum that support that rom to see if you have more luck with it.
[Ouya Android Development] cronikman84:
This has happened to me where i sign into my google account on my OUYA and i got the Already registered BS and brings me back to the sign in so right there and then all i do is double press the middle " U" button on the controller and exit the play store, then i go into MAKE and open the google play store and WOLA i'm in signed in and all, i've sat there entering my google account info over and over and over again bringing me back to sign in till i figured out that all i had to do since i had already signed in was to exit by double pressing the middle "U" button go to MAKE and open the google play store and it was working and i can say that it happened to me again last week again when i wiped my OUYA clean and installed the play store and i has happened every time i wiped my OUYA clean...You can try my suggestion, it wont hurt to try...
[Ouya Android Development] DorkyDev:
Finally got my play store to working now, I'm happy... For some reason the one I downloaded and installed from a youtube tute didn't give me the Mod_PS4Ouya.apk (Xposed Module) I dropboxed that apk from ps4ouya_script.zip and manually installed it then enabled it rebooted and it's working fine now, no annoying fc's about Play Store or Services on fresh boot anymore either.
[Ouya Android Development] albertkinng:
That's cool! I also found another youtube video explaining what to do. In fact I did this one too just for curiosity and it work perfectly! so go ahead! now i was wondering if anyone here knows how to install flash player as a video player on the ouya… but that's another story.

Already done :) Thank you! Is there any good alternative launcher?
[Ouya Android Development] =JKT=:
Thanks for this app. Worked perfectly!

I just stick to ouya launcher because if I run something like *nova launcher* I start feeling like this is android and then I try to use it like my phone and then I realize most of the android ecosystem is touch based. With ouya launcher this unit is a htpc/gaming console with an added bonus that ~some~ of my android apps work with it. Haha

But seriously, nova launcher is pretty solid on it.

No, I haven't for a while. I pretty much only use three or four apps so ouya launcher seems fine.
[Ouya Android Development] GizmoKaca:
Okay, so I have done nothing, but run the rooting apk file and it already said status: rooted before clicking the button. I didn't have superuser before though and now it is definitely rooted so thanks for this easy method. If I want to unroot the console at any point and get it back to stock, do I just factory reset the device in the advanced settings? Is this confirmed to completely unroot the device or do I need to do jump through hoops and flash clockwork mod recovery and then flash the latest OTA and then somehow remove the custom recovery if I want to completely restore it to stock or does flashing the OTA do that for me? Thanks in advance! :)

Do you have a rooted android tablet or phone?

Looks like there could be a way to root over wifi using them although I have not tried

Then you'd better get to it rather insinuating that the developer is somehow obligated to update the app. Sorry, but it rubs me wrong when people insist that a person NEEDS to perform services for them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] russiandivxclub:
Hi guys just want to share something and as I type I See this is already well known fact but I'll do it anyway cause it's just so awesome !

For many years I had to chose very carefully what phone I get and if I have any plans to go somewhere because in 99% of the phones will not do so good unless you're on specific carrier that you phone is made for. For years now I am an ATT customer and I always had ATT phones and as always no matter what plan I had or speed I had on ATT when I insert T Mobile, Simple mobile or any other off brand companies (T-Mobile towers) I'd had EDGE. That's why SGSII i989 was for me one of the best phones because no matter what I choice I always had 3G on it, on ATT and T-Mobile carriers. And now this. I have i337 and what an amazing phone I just took my wife T-Mobile sim card with LTE service, and damn thing worked like a charm. No problem at all. I have custom rom so all APN settings even got installed and magic LTE:13 is status window. Speed tests are amazing as well 23 Mbit down and 10Mbit up. So once again I know people know about it but for those that don't you can use i337 from ATT with ANY GSM carrier in US. Because all GSM carriers are off ATT towers like H2O or Red pocket and off T-Mobile like Simple Mobile, Go Smart etc will work on good speeds. Finally I can forget about EDGE with one device.

P.S.

Let me know if there are some carriers that will not support this unit. (I don't see how if in US only 2 GSM carriers that supply towers to rest)

BTW how do you take a screen shoot ...power + home didn't work
