Reset Ouya - Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Thinking of selling my ouya as I never use it but want to return it to the way it was when new,
Will factory resetting it remove all my mods i.e root ,superuser , play store and everything else ?

Only one way to find out

me too. Sadly after looking around on the net i found that it doesnt work. There might be a way around it once we get root. Can still use the NFC chip just not google wallet, yet. Tmobile and other carriers are trying to develop their own payment system.

I'd rather have Google wallet than some 3rd party app that is hardly established yet. Give it time, i'm sure we will see a hack or an official Google Wallet support. We have the technology in our phones to use the service, just takes time.

Ive been waiting for months for this guys, they are taking their time for sure.
Guys please be careful if this eventually gets working and you have the ability to flash custom roms. When going to a different rom you have to make sure to always reset the app from within wallet before flashing or else you could brick your nfc chip in a way that you can never use wallet again. It happened to me my second day owning my nexus.

This will let you non Sprint people use Google wallet I believe. Just read the instructions it can't be installed normally. It might require root I don't remember.

Flash stock images, make sure bootloader is locked. Take it to Verizon. When they ask what happen, play clueless customer and keep asking if you will loss your angry birds high scores.

People are saying this may be a pba problem.
Only PBA I know of is a bluetooth profile. What are you referring to?
I have the GSM Nexus so proceed with caution, but I'm wondering if they use the same types of files and folders. This is what I did to fix it when I accidentally wiped my IMEI:
cmstlist said:
Okay that was quick - solved it!
I believe the problem was that I'd restored the entire /data partition of my prior unit's backup including the /data/radio folder. Not a good idea! The solution was to copy the nv_data.bin and .md5 files from /factory and paste them to replace the incorrect ones in /data/radio. Now my IMEI is back!
Time to backup those files somewhere safe...

Don't try anything without backing up what you already have.
Just flash it to stock and play stupid. Then they will "factory data reset" it, because that fixes everything. Ha ha. No really, they'll give you a replacement.

if you can make a nandroid,
first off you need to download wugfresh's Gnex toolkit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
second you need to install all the drivers if you haven't already.
then you need to choose your model type
after you will need to click on back to stock what it does is it resets everything, assuming your phone ant boot up choose not booting
once that is done you can choose the factory image which can be downloaded from Googles factory images or you can use the options provided
after that you follow all the steps provided in the tool kit. the tool kit is mostly automatic so it wont take allot of time.
once that is done you are back in stock and have lost everything but don't fret because you can root it again using the same tool kit.
quick point your phone still has an unlocked boot loader so don't worry about that.
once youve completed the above steps you should be back to your good old galaxy nexus home screen
Verizon won't warranty it because the sticker under the battery has turned colors. No water damage I just touched one day when I took out the battery my hands were slightly wet prob not smart lol. I know this wasn't the cause it has been 5 months the only thing damaged was the sticker and warranty. Yes I have the right ROMs installed I'm not a newb. This is like the same issue with the s3 I tried to use the qpst method but I can't even get the hidden menu to show on the phone clueless as to why. I just want to use my gnex as a beater phone when I'm out.

Sounds promising going to try. I took apart the phone to check internals all looks good, except for the fact I broke antenna pinched with case. Ordered a new one incase this works.

The build # JDQ39.M919UVUAMDL (updated from Kies software on PC)
The phone doesn't seem to get hot anymore is the only thing I can tell is different. It was hot as heck before update.:good:
I can't enter *#0288# any more so I can's see the temp but the temp was 47-51 doing nothing last night. The special *# codes don't work now but as long as it isn't hot don't care.

This is the update that was already on my phone when I got it. My phone was produced on 5/25. The update that allows to move apps to sd is not available for this phone yet. Other models got it the last month so hopefully we will get it soon. Or somebody will figure out how to switch internal for external that would be even better.

I don't think you can root your device with a jig, but the jig can help you if you mess up trying to do something to your device. But as far as rooting it, you might need to use ODIN.

There is a method to root by using terminal emulator and some files.

Why would you do it then? Theyre pretty much telling you "If we do a s*** job its not our fault"
you should of gone somewhere were they were going to give you some king of warranty and someone who knows what theyre doing.

Nah they said that after they install the part,, before, they told me the price and that they can fix it. So $60 + $150 = $210 ouch!! thats what i was afraid of im willing to sell it or exchange it for another one with someone but anyway i still have hope on a dev to make this happend for the i747 there is a lot of devices that can root without a computer

That ebay motherboard has everything working. All you would need to do is swapp out the motherboads.
(this is just connecting and disconnecting a few connectors)
its 150$ plus free shipping. its not bad and probably the cheapest if no one comes up with a way to root with out PC
