[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skepticmisfit:
i hate saying this (because i probably sound preachy as hell) but in my experience, the best thing for this phone is AOKP M6. there's been a link floating around in that thread with the glitch kernel, and i have to say, that is the most stable and fast experience i've ever had with this phone. and i know it's freaking ICS, which is 2 years old, and some of you will have a hard time downgrading... but if you're unsatisfied with the JB and KK offerings, that is easily my ROM of choice.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hhp_211:
For mms you probably need to verify the system/etc/apn-conf.xml is correct.

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407571962

This is the critical and important part the XML needs

If you run on Verizon network

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

<apn carrier="Verizon" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="internet" type="default,mms,dun" mmsc="http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" protocol="IPV4V6" />

<apn carrier="Verizon Internet" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWINTERNET" type="default,dun" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />

<apn carrier="Verizon FOTA" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWADMIN" type="fota" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />

<apn carrier="Verizon IMS" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWIMS" type="ims" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />

<apn carrier="Verizon CBS" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWAPP" type="cbs,mms" mmsc="http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />

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

You can d/l this one,,, or just extract it from a known Rom with working mms. Then move into the system/etc and fix the permissions.

Give it the ole reboot and all should be well again,,,

You may need to verify apn settings either by voice dialer "edit apn's" or an apn settings apk from the play store like "HiAPN Global", or "APN Settings Shortcut" widget

You should have the same settings as the std Verizon from the .xml file

They would look like this

And make sure to save any changes

Damn, I love the fassy forum. Quality peeps dealing with a quality device.

skeptic - s.k. spear was the last dev to get a case of beer from me. I think it was for a 4.1.2 test build. ;)

hhp - You are a gentleman and a scholar. Thnx for the XML. Sorry to say it didn't work. I have a habit of using elixir2 to check APN and it seemed to be configured correctly... a quick *228 did not help either.

I'm beginning to think that I may have to learn code... snip and graft this phone into shape! lol
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skepticmisfit:
thanks man. yeah spear was a fantastic dev back in the day.. unfortunately i wasn't around when he was active as i got this phone recently (last summer, i dropped an older LG Vortex in the pool and my parents didn't feel like getting me a new phone so someone gave me a fassy and i'm quite happy with it). good on you for donating to him.
[Nexus 5 General] Vuciz:
So I was experimenting with LCD Density and happened to find that any value LOWER THAN OR EQUAL TO 288 will turn the phone into a "Tablet" meaning that instances of "Phone" are replaced with "Tablet" and you get the "Phablet" UI.

Any thoughts?
[Nexus 5 General] parker09:
I like Phablet mode but it's just too small, I'm waiting for Hybrid 3 (Paranoid Andorid) so I can have the overall UI still at 480 or close to it, and use Phablet mode with Pie Controls.
[Moto X Q&A] Groid:
Having used Stickmount for OTG, which worked perfectly in KK 4.4, I was pleased to hear native OTG worked in 4.4.2. I uninstalled Stickmount and plugged in external OTG storage and it mounted and I could see the files using Root Explorer under Storage > Usbdisk . Going into Settings > storage also showed the external memory at the bottom of the list. It has an option to 'Unmount shared storage', but if I select that and unplug, I get a permanent notification telling me 'Removed usb storage. usb storage removed. Insert new media', and I cannot clear it. If I don't unmount from the storage settings screen and just unplug, I get the notification 'USB storage unexpectedly removed. Unmount usb storage before removing'. But I can clear that notification. Before I just go back to using Stickmount, can anyone explain the proper way to unmount otgusb storage properly without generating an error?
[Moto X Q&A] larry62:
I get the same thing when going to settings to unmount. I believe what we are doing is the correct way, and I'd consider the permanent notification a Moto X 4.4.2 bug.
[Moto X Q&A] Groid:
Yes, it seems that it must be a bug. Guess I'll go back to Stickmount. It umnounts reliably.
[Moto X Q&A] pratik11:
Maybe I am out of place but I get the exact same error on my Moto G on 4.4.2.
[Moto X Q&A] larry62:
Do you have to get the paid version of Stickmount in order to unmount properly? I buy apps all the time, but would find it disappointing if the paid version didn't do this. I tried the free version which seems to mount things OK, but unmount not so much.
[Moto X Q&A] Groid:
I just tested this. I installed the free Stickmount and it mounts fine, files are in sdcard > usbstorage > sda1 (using Root Explorer). Touching the Stickmount shortcut brings up options including unmounting. Unmounting generates a message that the storage has been unmounted, but I do get a notification that the storage was unexpectedly removed. That notification can be cleared. I installed Stickmount Pro and get exactly the same result, even though there are some additional options. I bought the Pro to support the developer.
[Moto X Q&A] larry62:
Thanks... Exactly the same when I try the same steps.
[Moto X Q&A] dtg7:
remove the notification

To remove the seemingly permanent notification you can long press on the notification and click on App Info. Then force stop the application that posted the notification (System UI). Doing so doesn't seem to affect anything else. Annoying we have to do that but better than restarting phone or yanking out the drive without unmounting.
[Moto X Q&A] aksxmoto:
Hi, My expierance so far in different to you and to many other Moto X users and its a issue which I think next might take care off...

But here is small trick just long press the notification and force close it this might escape you from rebooting complete phone but with one glitch this might reset your wallpaper to default moto x every time you do that
[Moto X Q&A] sunnycheeba:
I updated my stock GSM (T-Mobile) XT1053 to Android 4.4.3 yesterday. USB OTG works well and unmounting using Settings>Storage>USB DISK>Unmount no longer causes notification problems.

Hello i wonder if is possible somehow when im charging my tab with usb to scam my tab to think that is charged with ac charger.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] backb0ne5p1d0r:
Yes it's possible. This is called Fast Charge. Just find a kernel for your tab that supports fast charge and flash the kernel kn your device to charge fast from USB.

Finally do not hold me responsible for damaging, bricking, your cat getting electrocuted and anything else.​

If you enjoy this patch and feel mighty gifty then buy me my next drink!

​
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
-=FAQ=-

​

You'll need to set the option "unc=\\\\put.ip.address.here\\name,noperm" without quotation marks.

OUYA doesn't like apps running in the background so it kills them to reduce issues with games you may be playing.

Using the touchpad on the OUYA, hover over the checkbox and tap it to "check" the module.

Copy the wallpaper you wish to use to "/sdcard/CONFIG/" ( or use a direct link image... see bellow )

Open the file "THEME" found in "/sdcard/CONFIG/" with a text editor of choice

Replace the name of the .jpg ( or .png ) to the one that you copied over to "/sdcard/CONFIG/"

For example... if I copied over a wallpaper called "wallpaperformyouya.png" the line would change to look like this:

"background":"http://localhost/wallpaperformyouya.png"

Alternatively you can also use a direct link like an imgur link...

"background":"http://i.imgur.com/Gs16J2V.png"

Save it back to the OUYA and reboot.
[Ouya Android Development] yeahimdukenukem:
Hey man. Thanks for that :)

But I have two questions:

- Are all mods from your awesome StockPlus ROM integrated here? I'm asking especially because of PS3 Controller support.

- The patch is for the Stock ROM, right? Could you provide a few instructions how to install Stock ROM over StockPlus?

Thanks in advance and again:

Awesome work man :)
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Yes, the only one that's not included is xtheme engine because I'd need to remake the theme since there's quite a lot of changes.

It is... the easiest method of upgrading would be to download 1.2.858 from here and copy it to /sdcard/

Once in /sdcard/ reboot into cwm -> install zip from sdcard -> choose "RC-OUYA-1.2.858-r1_ota.zip" and flash it. Then go back into install zip from sdcard and install "SPP_1.2.858_RC1.zip" over it.
[Ouya Android Development] yeahimdukenukem:
Not a problem for me, haven't used it before :)

That's easy man. I thought the OTA update would overwrite the recovery or something.

And what about further OTA updates? Will OUYA automatically perform updates or is that disabled by your patch?

I don't want to accidentally lose your Plus-Features, because of new OUYA ota update.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Ahh that's right... you'll need to reflash cwm after applying the OTA update. My apologies as I forgot about that. ( maybe I'll add cwm to the patch so even if you apply an OTA it'll reinstall cwm. )

In terms of updating it's now user controllable... lets say an update comes out and it's one you want to move to and don't mind loosing any features... you can switch to using their update by changing whats in "UPDATE" to represent the latest info. By default though it's setup to not update.
[Ouya Android Development] yeahimdukenukem:
Mmh, isn't the recovery on a special recovery partition?

I don't think it's flashable via a zip file, as normally you flash the whole img.

Anyways it's not a problem for me to fastboot flash cwm again after installing ota. So thanks again. :)

EDIT: Well, just read it IS possible to flash via zip, sry sry sry.

Great, that's what I want :)

Can't wait to get home for flashing, hehe :cool:
[Ouya Android Development] niphoet:
This is working great. Thanks!
[Ouya Android Development] BadWolff23:
Thx man, its working flawlessly exceot for sudden fcs of google services when i download from the ouya store, other than that...amazing job!
[Ouya Android Development] prophetjinn:
Is that after you activated the playstore xposed module?
[Ouya Android Development] BadWolff23:
It was at the very begining, now after couple reboots its alrite
[Ouya Android Development] evaporic:
How do you get Netflix to stream in good quality without the HDMI external display option that was available on the old ROM?
[Ouya Android Development] BadWolff23:
Netflix outputs in good resolution after a while, it looks pretty bad because it takes no time buffering as opossed in a pc or smart tv.
[Ouya Android Development] Ipse_Tase:
Great work IncognitoMan....we owe you.

One question through: what changed that the icons in "Make/software" look so ****ty? Is it the theme?
[Ouya Android Development] Careless_:
did a complete wipe.

installed ouya stock rom, then installed patch.

no ethernet or wifi, even though the connection is made.

just no access to internet.

formatted once more.

installed stock ouya rom back.

no patch this time.

internet connection works.

any ideas?
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
In CWM when you select reboot and get prompted "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. FIX?" did you make sure to select no? As it sounds like you are selecting yes which actually kills what I'm hooking into... ( which would explain the issues with that )

Look at team ouya on that.... don't know why they did the whole "stretch to fit" but I'll look into it at some point once I get my machine back up...

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

Been busy and my old laptops GPU died ( RIP T61p ) so im pulling together parts from it and putting them into another T61... hence my inactivity.
[Ouya Android Development] Ipse_Tase:
It's not like I'm spending a lot of time in that screen :)

Quick question for you: I remember reading somewhere that Ouya will never get past JB 4.1 as it would break the BT controller functionality (I'm sketchy on details). Is that still true?

The only reason I care is because of the way Netflix handles DRM and as long as we're stuck below 4.3 we won't get HD.

It's sad to see I was able to upgrade my ancient Xoom to KitKat (used as a news reader and Sudoku machine by my GF) and even my Galaxy S (now an mp3 player) got SlimKat.
[Ouya Android Development] ragregory:
Google Play games

Has anyone been able to get the Google Play games service working on this ROM. I am getting errors trying to connect inside of games.
[Ouya Android Development] Careless_:
I selected whatever option it gave me to prevent it from reflashing. So if it said "press yes to prevent", then that's what I pressed. I can't remember what the question was for certain, but I selected the preventative option.

So is it nothing to worry about, and should I just press the opposite?
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Known issue... haven't really looked into getting it to work either.

Correct... when it asks select "No" and all should work then.
[Ouya Android Development] ragregory:
Google+ and Play Games

Hmm... It seems that Google+ is not working either. It seems this may be related to the Google Play games issue also.
[Ouya Android Development] MMansoor:
Lots of apps FC'ing

Awesome to have Play Store working on the OUYA. Thanks for the great work.

The first app I tried to install was Chrome, and it FC'ed on me at launch. Then ES file explorer. Same behavior. I thought I'd done something along the way and broken it, but then I tried installing Color Note and it works fine. So the setup seems to be working but most of the apps won't run.

Have tried installing the patch again taking care to select NO for stock bootrom replacement (first time I selected YES), and then performing the post-install steps again, but same behavior still.

Any ideas?
[Ouya Android Development] Ipse_Tase:
I can comment on ESfileExplorer: had to find 3.0.5.1 and stop upgrading. I don't have the other apps you have problems with - but FWIW Accuweather stopped working after the ROM update.

As long as XBMC and Netflix work, I am happy.
[Ouya Android Development] Careless_:
will try this later today.

perhaps it is a good idea to edit the first post to reflect the neccessary selection to avoid confusion from new users experiencing the same problem.
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Chrome has a problem with OUYA. May be if you can install the beta version or something. Besides it doesn't support the flash websites, so you actually don't need it that much. I find Firefox to act better (though I never use it on the desktop) because it requires less touch.

Anyway, you can start with these websites. They have a lot of useful stuff.

http://ouyafree.webs.com/#gsc.tab=0

http://ouyaforum.com/showthread.php?4455-List-Of-Side-Loadable-Games-amp-Applications

Check them out. I tried a lot of the stuff in them, just be careful, even if the game works perfect, it is very annoying to have to use the touch pad. That's what I think.

One thing is that the official XBMC is the most stable and reliable and I use it all the time. The newest Android beta release and nightly work also with extra stuff, but if you need the stable normal functionality and pairing with remote control programs and you don't care about themes (which actually break a lot of the stuff), then you would more than fine with the official OUYA XBMC.

Hope this helps...
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Hi guys, I have a weird problem that may or may not be related to the patch. I can't setup parental controls. It used to work before but now it doesn't work any more after the patch. I have my account of course to set up the OUYA and start using it, but then hen I get to the parental control section and it tells me to enter the password of my account (that's already there), I put my same password but it says password incorrect. I used another keyboard but it still doesn't work.

Any suggestions?
[Ouya Android Development] Haxxa:
Thank you worked great on my new Ouya :)
[Ouya Android Development] manaurys:
Do i need to wipe something on cwm recovery before flashing?
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
I myself didn't and I had a very hard time booting (may be because I had other Xposed mods installed), then I wiped everything including system and had to reflash everything. So just to be safe, first download the stock version mentioned by the OP and put it on the SD card or your computer if you are using ADB and the most important thing of course is the keyboard, it can be wired or wireless (which works perfectly by the way), so that if anything goes wrong, you can get into recovery. And of course, make a Nandroid backup.
[Ouya Android Development] tauntt:
OK I went into recovery, installed, but my build number is the same that it was stockplus 1.0.519r2. Also discover (ouya store) doesn't launch. It says SU granted, but launches nada. What am I doing wrong?

---------- Post added at 02:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 AM ----------

Never mind, I read the previous post where it says you have to be on 1.2 for it to work. Everything works like it should. I get constant google play store pop ups though.
[Ouya Android Development] BadWolff23:
Is it ok that now it doesnt detect my wifi when i hit the update button nor the changelog?
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Now that the new "Chupacabra" is out, will it be ok if I update, or shall I wait for a new patch first? What are the proper steps to update and not lose root or the play store?

Thanks in advance...
[Ouya Android Development] yeahimdukenukem:
Good question, would be interested in an answer, too.
[Ouya Android Development] Skater4599:
Seconded, My system tried auto updating itself last night, it did not give me the prompt to choose to delay the update or not (Which was strange as I am on the latest, which was supposed to add that option) Either way it failed after rebooting to an Ouya screen then I just get an Ouya with an "!" and it reboots and starts the cycle all over again, any help would be appreciated! Thanks all
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Mine doesn't update. I tried looking for the new update but it says up to date. But that's exactly what happened to me last time when I updated unwillingly. I had to reboot in recovery using a keyboard and then I had to format everything including system and then redo everything from scratch.

I hope everything goes fine for you and that you'll find a another method that will spare you all the troubles...
[Ouya Android Development] frigidazzi:
I just let it update and tell it not to use system recovery when asked. Then: can re use su and mods just find. The pass through isn't working for me. Interested to hear ascot others experiences.
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Did it update on it's own? Or did you do something?

I don't care about all the stuff they updated except the controller thing. I have a pocket Moga and I can't get it to sync, no matter what I do. And even when it did sync one time a long time ago, the OUYA didn't see it as a controller and I couldn't get the two player mode to work in Amazing Frog.

Anyway, I'll wait for the update and report back whatever happens...
[Ouya Android Development] frigidazzi:
Everything happened on it's own except the warning in cwm about flashing stuff. Surprised out was built to work with cwm.
[Ouya Android Development] IncognitoMan:
Just booted the OUYA to check to see if update checking was borked again and so far its not force updating the OUYA... still blocking...

My guess is that *maybe* when yall installed and left CWM that you selected the "yes" option when it asked about stock recovery fix on boot...

As for an update to said patch I'll look into it soon... just wanting to finish a few things before I hop back on this.
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Thanks for the reply. So, do you think I can reflash the patch and choose "NO" when prompted after I finish? Do you think it will fix it? Or do you think I should wait and flash the new stock followed by the new patch when it's out?
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
Just reporting back...

I downloaded the new OTA from this link and flashed it through the CWM recovery. It worked like a charm. Then I opened RootMyOUYA and though it said rooted, you have to start root again. Once finished, you can go to the SupperSU to check for errors (it gave me errors before I re-rooted the OUYA). Then download the Mod_PS4Ouya.apk from this thread or from the attached files, sideload it and install it.

It took like 10 minutes, but I got the update, the root and everything is still intact and working perfect.

Thanks to all the people involved in making the Xposed Framework and the PlayStore4OUYA mod and of course to IncognitoMan.

Waiting for the new patch ;)
[Ouya Android Development] Ipse_Tase:
So do we need to wait for a new patch for "Chupacabra" (who the hell comes up with these names...I don't want to host a monster in my living room) or can still use the old one...or try an alternate solution like the one above?
[Ouya Android Development] zebular:
So I just tried this and now the RootMyOuya apk won't install... hmm... I wonder if they disable allowing that to install with the new hotfix??? We really need a fork of this front end that truly doesn't force you to update.

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

Yeah they definitely messed with something here... I couldn't install the RootMyOuya apk and then I used the OuyaToolbox to get full root again. Now when I install Mod_PS4Ouya.apk it says it's installed but doesn't show up in the Make menu. I'm guessing this all came about with the Chupacabra hotfix update?
[Ouya Android Development] ahmadshawki:
I just updated last night and went directly to bed, hahaha.

I'll check once I get back home from work and update you...
[Ouya Android Development] zebular:
Please do... I have a feeling they took measures to keep the google store from being installed under the make menu. You can install the xposed installer but it doesn't show up in the make menu lol. We REALLY need a new StockPlus version now!
