Anyone else excited - Ouya General

anyone else as excited as i am to get my ouya in april? I cant wait to be able to port all of my games over, i have heard there will be restrictions placed apon those who root the ouya and put custom apks on it? Anyone know if thats true?

It's based on the FAQ that Ouya has up. No one knows exactly how the restrictions are going to work or what workarounds that may be used. And I don't know of any developers trying root and so forth.
I figured some people will be getting them starting this coming week. I'm sure at least one person will be a XDA forum poster, and will try root, and will advise.

Not excited but bummed that I have to wait till June.

veryyy excited !

ugghh
well i guess well all have to see about the rooting issue but i couldnt imagine them doing that to us since they said from the start they were incourging people to hack and develop . and waiting a few more weeks is not gunna be bad i sold my xbox and am prepping my room for it =]

SO PUMPED! Made my pre-order last week. Lately I've found indie games to be alot more fun than AAA console/pc titles. Hopefully the ouya sells well enough to attract some of the big hitters in the indie community.

[Q] N64oid no longer on the market????

I cant find N64oid in the market anymore. I have a Galaxy S and it used to show up fine, I even checked the website and it wasnt showing p anywhere. any ideas????
I confirm this ... am glad that I didn't buy it
Kris
Yeah its not there anymore =/ Hope its just for a code overhaul and that it will be back soon.
Looks like its a licensing Problem
http://code.google.com/p/n64oid/issues/detail?id=1
Ya that seems to be the problem on all the sites i am reading. something about the source that was used to port over was licensed differently and is not compatible with Google licensing. anyway its off the market!
This is the email I got directly from Yong this morning:
A great number of users are complaining about the compatibility and running performance. I am doing a rewrite of some of the core modules. Don't worry, N64oid will be back much better in 1-2 months.
Thanks for the understanding!

The app is not in the Market because I bet people where looking for legal copies of roms...hahahaha
@k4str0
I received the same email. Looks like it will be back on the market in a couple months. Looking forward to it.
Quite a long time... I guess there's nothing else we could do now but waiting and drinking tea
it was back yesterday for a second then went again!???
It seems unnecessary to remove an app while you perfect it. I've already paid for it, and now I won't be about to install it (via the Market at least) on my new phone in a couple of weeks. Poor show. I hope I won't be expected to pay for it again once it re-releases.
Must be because of the 2-300 morons that left negative rating and saying it was laggy and buggy and couldn't understand that this app was still in development which was clearly stated by the developper. Hope to see it in the market soon, till then, i'll continue playing starfox and super mario!
I don't mind the issue, won't stop me from advancing in Zelda OOT and Mario 64 haha. I have it backed up in Titanium Backup so I will still be using it until he puts it back on, I still am very satisfied ^_^
This makes me sad.
Reviews are easily changed, and that's the way the Market works. If an app improves significantly between releases then I, and plenty of others, will be inclined to revisit their review.
By removing the app altogether, it will prevent people who have bought the game and uninstalled it from reinstalling it in future. That isn't fair. Thankfully I still have it installed, and have made a backup of the APK.
I probably come across as more miffed than I actually am - I'm actually more pleased that he's taking the time to make some significant improvements, provided that I don't end up having to pay again for the re-release.
I don't know why they make such a big deal over "only use LEGAL roms", if you actually buy the games now the developers dont make a dime off of them since they stopped making them ages ago.

New User of the HTC Droid Incredible? Enter here to introduce yourself!

Hi guys, I started this thread with the intent that the new users of our forum could first stop in and introduce their selves. They are the new blood around here and may very well have something useful to share with us! Use this thread as you see fit as long as you keep it clean and follow all the XDA rules
Enjoy!!!​
Here I'll start us off:
Hi my name is Josh. I'm 27, married to the best woman in the world. We have a beautiful 5yo daughter who is now in school. I have one dog, one wolf mix, a cat, a hamster and a tank full of minnows(my daughter said we are not allowed to use them as bait, lol) I am U.S. Army Medically Retired. I was a 91B(mechanic)(originally a 63W for you old heads) in the Army until I hurt my back. I've been to Iraq twice, Egypt once, and did maint support operations on the Port of Beaumont, Texas and the Port of Olympia in Washington. I was there while the riots where going on. I did enjoy serving my country and am very proud to have been given this special opportunity. Now that I am out of the mil I can focus more on my family, living life and of course my geeky addiction.
Its been a fun road to now. I started out with my first Android phone the HTC Droid Eris. I enjoyed the works of many great devs and learned so much while using there Rom's. workshed, Tazzpatriot, condemned soul, conap, gnarlic man the list goes on... These guys are really who got me interested in developing and everything else. With there help a did a little theming for the Eris. It was mostly just minor stuff for Cm. As time past I eventually moved on to the HTC Droid Incredible. I've been here since March. I started out again doing some theming then I moved up to my DTR's (BUNKER BUSTER DTR and yes since I'm retired U.S Army thats why it is named something militaryish). Its a fun little project and its also my way of sticking it to the man, lol. Now most of my focus goes to my Roms. I have Pure Speed which is my first and my baby. I'm so proud of that rom. I also have Hybrid Speed, Sub Sonic and my latest my first ever 3.0 rom Pure Shooter.
All in all this Inc community has taught me so much and showed me a whole new world I never knew existed. We have good support, good people and great devs here. My time spent here is now just keeping my work updated and trying to help out as much as I can.
Anyways, enough with me blabbering on... Lets hear about you!
You know the phone is awesome when the introduce yourself thread is created a year and a half after release.

Well its just that here recently we've had a mass of new users show for whatever reason so guess now is better than never.
Seriously, I got mine in march of this year with phones surrounding the dinc that supposedly had better tech and have not looked back since. When my contract is up in two years, there will be some serious advancements in phone tech.

Well i actually just recently got my incredible last month because i smashed my iphone 4(walls and apples don't mix). In the last 2 months I've done more on my phone than development wise than ever thought possible now I'm hooked.

I used this forum to root the other day.
This site seems to be used as a reference for others so I went to the source.
I rooted to the CM7 and the new radio that came out with gingerbread.
After going through the rooting process I am ready not to go through the setup again. TB kept force closing after each app install(took a long time) I'll wait for awhile and let the guru's play with the new GB and see what develops.
I am Ryan, been here since day 1. The root process was crazy involved then... Memories! But I got it, after three days of trying after work! I try to help here from my experiences I've had with my Inc. I've rooted my girl's Desire, my Xoom, and this week my buddy's Inc is getting the business!
I've done some minor tweaking of existing code, but haven't done any ROM creating/modding. I've made themes for myself, so I understand how to replace/edit/create draw 9 PNG's and replacing other files in APKs. I've become pretty good with GIMP, but have never created images from scratch.
Other than that, I'm a smart ass, like to golf, and am currently moving in with my girl. I've met really cool people in these forums, who I continue to talk with via Twitter or Gtalk.
Looking forward to helping anyone out, and meeting new/existing DInc owners.

Hi!
My name is Paul I've had my phone since November of last year, but only later decided I wanted to try this rooting shenanigans in January. I was again slow to switch from sense over to AOSP, but now since I've done all that I really love my phone and even now I just figured out there's a whole mess more you can do with widgetlocker and other theming apps.

I've recently found a really cool site for android theming:
http://mycolorscreen.com/category/android/
Some of the stuff on there I had no idea you could even do, it's amazing.
I think there'll probably be more user who've had their Dinc for a while rather than newer users BUT ANYWAYS.... Well my name's Antonio and I'm 17. I'm hoping to go to either Princeton or Boston University and become an Anesthesiologist. The Dinc is my first smartphone and I got it in September 2010, but didn't root until sometime around December. I had no idea what root was, I found out more about it when Gingerbread first came out and builds started coming out for the Dinc. I began to do some research and I found Xda, but I didn't become a member until March of this year. I have since then become a flashaholic and the longest continous time I've had a ROM has been Pure Shooter for two weeks so far.... Do we get a gold star for this? Lol

Well I'm not new, but I figured I'd chime in a bit!
Hi all! I'm Bob and I'm a college student with a major in Computer Science and minor in Information Systems. The HTC Incredible is my first smartphone, and since I got it on launch week, I've been hooked! I was pretty active on Android Forums, helping people out and whatnot but I finally decided to make XDA my permanent home.
I've recently begun developing apps for Android just as a fun side project. I have not made a ROM yet, but I have been heavily debating it. I think I'll give it a try when the real Gingerbread OTA comes out, but we'll see since I'll be busy with school starting back up AND work in a few days...
I try to help people out because this is a community. I try to give feedback as much as possible and like to point people in the right direction if ever needed. I am a bit of a ROM flashing addict and even the ROMs that I don't try, I at least read about and get familiarized with! The Inc community is seriously awesome, and we've only gotten better as a whole. Thanks to the devs and to all the members for making my hobby even more enjoyable!
cool idea; you know, i've always wondered about a lot of us here..we always talk phones and whatnot, but we dunno anything about eachother lol
well i'm jay (clearly lol) and i'm from the shore of NJ, born and raised (not to be affiliated with that dirtbag trash on that bull**** TV show, sigh.) i'm 24, i've got my bachelors from rutgers university and my masters from monmouth..unfortunately, since our wonderful government is utter **** right now, the fact that my degrees deal with getting a job in the state/federal government realm isn't helping whatsoever, as I can't land a gov job for the life of me...so i currently work for a small family-owned Verizon store that sells vzw phones, accessories and FiOS. besides that, i'm a musician of 11 years (bass, guitar, drums) and i play bass in a band.
as for my wonderful android journey, it only began in may of 2010 when my buddy sold me his htc eris for 20 bucks when he got his dinc on release day in the mail in april. he told me it'd be fine for me since it was my first smartphone, but he was sick of it already (had it for like 4 months lol) and that it was super laggy to him, so he got the dinc. well, the eris lasted me barely 3 months..even after rooting it and upping my processor speed with setcpu, the thing was still super laggy and the typing lag was atrocious..
so i was one of the people who ordered the Dinc during the Great Amoled Shortage of '10 hahah...ordered it early July, and got it on July 29th...kept it stock for a while, thought the phone was AMAZXING bc there was no typing lag etc...and then that damn Froyo OTA hit, and my phone just started crapping out. typing lag was about as bad as it was on the eris after that OTA, and i almost threw this phone so many times. so finally, in january of '11 i rooted...put on lou's redemptive revolution, still had keyboard lag, and was just super angry.
then i saw Z roms come about, and my lag was finally gone, and i've been playing with new roms ever since. so yeah, safe to say i've easily had this phone for a year and have no intentions on upgrading anytime soon! haha
whoa, that was a book! but whatever. i love my inc, and after just installing synergy again and the Warm theme for the first time, it's bringing me back to my early days of rooting when my first Z rom was warm z two.point.two!! ahh nostalgia.
I'm somewhat new here, due to my recent activity. But I recently got hold of an Incredible after my Droid A855 had growing digitizer issues. I haven't looked back because I really grew to like the device because it's extremely light (sometimes a little too light for comfort), and it's been smooth as melted butter. I'm currently running gingerbread inc deck 1.2b beta on my rooted Incredible. For what I consider(ed) a stop gap device, I'll be hard pressed to find a 4G phone I'll like enough to use my upgrade from VZW..
Another march guy. My name is cameron. I'm 17, currently jobless, have way too much on my plate for a 17 year old, and have the best girlfriend and family I could ask for.
The job field I want to get into its automotive. I've been tearing apart 350 small blocks, 429 big blocks, honda engines, and everything in between since I could walk.
I'm an admitted crackflasher (flashed every rom in the dev section at least once) I was introduced to android when I got a motorola defy for christmas (it blew)
One day I eventually wanna have a family of my own with this girl right here.

[Need Supports][X-Play Section]Whats going to happen to The Play Section?

Hey guys, i've been here quite a while. And nowadays people keeps coming in with question that've been probably answered and a lot of dev seem to hav lost their interest in developing this phone.:banghead:
I really wonder who's gonna help us with our problem. And i sriously don't think the play moderator could handle everything here by themself. I obviously don't hav enough on me to be of any use to help this community.
So what're we gonna do when all the devs are gone?? Who's gonna provide us the things that we may need?? Where would we go to when we're lost in developing??
I'm really bump up with everythings that been going on with this device. All the news, the stories, the gossip, article, blog etc. Everything that this device had offered when it 1st appear had already been top off by some dual/quad core tegra 3 1gb/2gb ram device.
So the real Q is how long does this section's gonna last...

Don't worry. As I see, the developers are still crazy about Xperia Play and they prefere it to GS3 because of GAMEPAD.
This section is not gonna die.:good:
Yeah i also noticed that. The play does not have the community that it deserves. But my play just died and since i am on exchange year in taiwan right now i cant send it to sony. But phones are cheap here so i just bought a xperia sola. Problem solved. I miss gamepad though.

Dude, for example take a look at the X8 section.
The phone came out in Summer 2012 and has 180MB RAM (~90 of which is usable) and it has a HUGE community.
Over 400 ROM's, and has fully working Jelly Bean , how may I ask?, new developers come along.
But may be a slightly different story here
Just enjoy our magnificent devs whilst they are still there, Cosmicdan Wedgess sechko Markphyton rocks and our god pax make the play work at it's best!

I think it is time up for this device, Cyanogenmod team said they stopped supporting Snapdragon S1 devices, I think that's what the Play uses. At least we had CM7 and CM9 stable which both run great, we will get a CM10 port too from FXP. Overall the device is limited by the performance. Sony isn't going to upgrade this model, just have to hope another company will create something similar for us, but I'm not interested in tablets with controller.
Well, my xperia play recently broke and im getting a new one. I had a choice of S3, but i chose the play. Because its unique and wont die.
HOPEFULLY

Wise option :good:
I'm hoping more will join this thread to asses their needs of the Play section. Just so we'll know what're n how many are still interested in this section. Hopefully to get more than 50 users/members to tell us n re-asure us that this section is gonna last. Coz this "may be" my last device. As my twins needs more financial attention than my interest in gadgets. I lov this phone. Just want to keep it up to date as possible. Hoping to get more n any kinds of supports from users/members to keep this section alive.
"Live hard and Die Well"
I'm not sure if this section is gonna last much more time. I think the Xperia Play is indeed an awesome phone but it just wasn't made for the android hardcore user. I used to theme my phone so much and to change Rom every two days. Now with this phone I don't do either if those things. Anyway I can't imagine myself with another device

Lack of devices might harm development?

Will the lack of actual devices harm the development for this phone?
It's their flagship device, so Google is probably working at supplying more phones right now. I'm sure that they will be able to meet demand as to not to stunt the growth of development. I have a feeling they wanted to sell out of their first run to create some buzz around the phone, whether it's good buzz or bad buzz, I'm not so sure...
It's certainly going to slow down development since less people will have the device. But I'm sure it will be quite popular and well supported by December.
Don't worry, devs will have this device soon. I wanted a Nexus 4, but I was unable to snatch one due to Play Store issues on the first day.

This is exactly it! You're a dev who would be able to contribute to the community, but was unable to acquire a device. Yeah theres always batch #2 but what happens when it sells out? 3 more weeks?
It's a Nexus, I can guarantee you development well flourish soon enough. Back ordered or not, many people will do whatever / wait however long it takes to get this phone.

Sounds like good news to me. Can't wait to pick mine up at GameStop this week, too bad I'm packed with hours this week. Won't get much time with it until next week.

i do think it's going to be an awesome device that just launched in a very inconvenient time. when ouya came out and let down the expectations of android gaming in general, and all the other next gen consoles doing their stuff, also the new n7 launch too
See that's the thing people keep comparing is the new consoles that are still months away yes I do think it might hurt sells if the consoles were releasing next week but there not and as far as ouya it was a Tegra 3 device with not that great of specs the sheiks on the other had is a tegra 4 way more powerful and most of all the three of those are consoles if you wanna call ouya a console not so portable don't think you can play ps4 or ouya or Xbox one anywhere you want I respect your thoughts I just wished people would stop bashing sheild and comparing it to consoles when its on a whole other level and from what I heard most all orders are filled up for shipping so they must be doing something with the sales I mean come on as I said these consoles I can preorder in December if I want one bad enough I'd be dumb to waste money this early in not to meantion most times a system first releases it has major problems do we need to look back on the first 360 and ps3 so I will wait until the bugs and flaws are sorted out first Sony I love Sony but just as Microsoft they are just trying put them out quick enough to make money look how crappy the 360 was put together with xclamps on the middle of the mother board with no screws to support the middle of the board thereforth it cause it to warp and break the solder joints lose over time am just saying preorder what you will people but am holding off first nvidia has always been good at working there problems out before release hence why the sheild is releasing when it is instead of June because they seen something that didn't work right and people bash nvidia for making a problem and pushing the date instead of just releasing a broken pieace of hardware if some people just took the time to think about these sort of things it would click in there head anyways this was not made to hate on anyone everyone has there own thoughts on what they wanna do I just know were my mind sets

See that's the thing people keep comparing is the new consoles that are still months away yes I do think it might hurt sells if the consoles were releasing next week but there not and as far as ouya it was a Tegra 3 device with not that great of specs the sheiks on the other had is a tegra 4 way more powerful and most of all the three of those are consoles if you wanna call ouya a console not so portable don't think you can play ps4 or ouya or Xbox one anywhere you want I respect your thoughts I just wished people would stop bashing sheild and comparing it to consoles when its on a whole other level and from what I heard most all orders are filled up for shipping so they must be doing something with the sales I mean come on as I said these consoles I can preorder in December if I want one bad enough I'd be dumb to waste money this early in not to meantion most times a system first releases it has major problems do we need to look back on the first 360 and ps3 so I will wait until the bugs and flaws are sorted out first Sony I love Sony but just as Microsoft they are just trying put them out quick enough to make money look how crappy the 360 was put together with xclamps on the middle of the mother board with no screws to support the middle of the board thereforth it cause it to warp and break the solder joints lose over time am just saying preorder what you will people but am holding off first nvidia has always been good at working there problems out before release hence why the sheild is releasing when it is instead of June because they seen something that didn't work right and people bash nvidia for making a problem and pushing the date instead of just releasing a broken pieace of hardware if some people just took the time to think about these sort of things it would click in there head anyways this was not made to hate on anyone everyone has there own thoughts on what they wanna do I just know were my mind sets

sorry dude, didn't explain that quit well , my bad, but i mean people's budgets , i'm not comparing them them at all, they are very different platforms. the main stream next gen consoles is going to take the "gamer" costumers away, and the new n7 is going to take the "geek" costumer away, which is the two big groups of costumers that the shield is aiming for, and ouya just keep the general costumers out of this. that's why i said it's bad timing
nexus 7

While the nexus 7 is a great device it still doesn't compare to tegra 4 its only a snapdragon 600 I mean don't get me wrong the 600 is a amazing chip. But I think the tegra hits home with its 72 core gpu I love nexus I've had a nexus 7 for many years but again the nexus is more just tablet and sheild is more handheld gaming. I am not fighting with ya man trust me I don't wanna sound like some immature kid on here you make good points. I guess we will have to see what happens with it the way to ywo nvidia reps acted as if this project is already a big thing so I hope it is thank you for your honest feedback man be sure to keep up on my post I will be covering more phones tablets etc..
I'm actually trying to protect you from trolls, but whatever I guess.
