I have seen videos on the internet of people playing minecraft on the ouya. I loaded it from my gs2 and the controlls dont work at all. What can I do to make it work???

Apparently everyone is either content with what they have (including me) and don't bother adding too much stuff, or they have given up on the OUYA and they curse the day
Anyway, to stay on the topic, I tried a handful of stuff and apps but I could never get it to work. The new Amazon Fire TV has a special edition of the Minecraft that works with only their controller. So either someone finds a way to rip it off and port it to the OUYA, or you have to wait for the coming 1.0 version which the developers said it would probably have controller support.
I know this doesn't help, but even all the people asked in the youtube video comments but the guy never answered. I also seen a post on Google+ saying he is playing Minecraft on Hisense Google TV but again, he never answered my question...

Hi people.
aThe ability to have access to all those retro games, which I by the way often enjoy more than recent games as they mostly are nothing but eyecandy, was an important point for me to get an Android device.
At the moment I am kind of pissed. I just searched for SNESoid and couldnt find it in the Market. Did it get pulled?
Is there some other way than the market to get this app?
Apparently i failed to give this thread a title. Sorry about this, its my first one.

You can edit the title
Anyways ..
There is Snes9x EX or sega Genesis ...both give you the retro games ......
yes Snesoid (and the dev and all his software )got pulled becouse SEGA was *****ing
Thanks for the Info.
By now I found out, that the developers account in the market was deleted.
For now he posted all his emulators in another appstore, (am not able to post the URL, but just google for "SlideMe") , for now they are even all free. I think its a shame that Google pulled his apps, as they were a real plus for the android platform giving you access to a LOT of "real" games.
BTW: I still cant figure out how to change this threads title...
Hello everyone. It's my first post so I'm supposed to say something more bout me. All I can say so far is I'm new into android device but I had updated my Desire FW to 2.3.3 GB.
Let's back to the topic. I'm literally dying to play this game as it's one of my fav types so far. I can't download it from Market, can't deceive market that I'm using other phone (trying to edit build.prop but it didnt work at all). I have rooted my phone as well to do those mentioned. I won't give up because everybody know as a fact it's possible to play this game on our Desires and it's quite rude of Gameloft they 'don't support our phones' (their official website don't, I'd try it as well). Desire S is almost like a twin (but quite younger ).
I apologize if this threat has been mentioned before, I used seach feature and didn't find anything special.
If you guys know how to solve this problem (I'm fighting this 3rd day actually) please let me know in this thread or either pm.
Try MarketEnabler from the market.
I found a way out of this misery. I actually purchased a game for other device (DS in that case). It works perfect, no lag, no dc's. Just brilliant
If somebody will find it useful and has quite similar problem as me, try to do it on gameloft.com . I have this game cheaper than the market (£3.00) and it's just a text with link to game download which starts automatically. It's just .apk so it should be working whatever your device is.
Hi all,
(Before all the bla bla, here's the link to the article.)
I'm all new to this forum (already said hi in the "say hi" thread, hi again anyway).
I'm also new to the Android platform...after having had different phones and some iPhones I must say:
I love my Android and omg it's so "open" (not always but...) it's so great. The possibilites are endless. My goal would be to use it as a home console, a handheld, a desktop computer etc...and even as a phone sometimes.
So...I found many things on the net about all this. But I didn't find anywhere if the S3 would fit into Gametel's controller. (Handheld experience). And no pics were to be found either. Even no videos (maybe I should do one).
So...I bought the ubber expensive controller and did it myself for all you guys and dudes. Because for years I'm just end-using the forums everywhere to get what I want by just reading something someone else has already had.
But I never contributed to anything (internet wise, in this domain).
So...many of my sentences start with "So...". Anyway, here's what I did. I can edit it and stuff if there's more you'd like to know.
Happy reading and hopefully I could help a dude out!

thanks man
i edited the first post as i can now post links
(not to mention the captcha free experience, yay.)
Had my Ouya for over a month and... haven't really used it much. Got a lot on my plate and this thing is too brickable for someone like me to mess with. I'm hoping that the public release will include some surprises (really, I just hope it becomes worth the $99 I paid a year ago). Like everyone else around here, I'm pretty bummed out that the Ouya people completely lied about this system being hacker-friendly, and the games available on their store... um.... pretty much all suck. Installed amazon app store and nova launcher BTW. Improvement, but not so much as would make me choose to use the ouya over my ps3, computer, tablet, or.... um.... a block of wood. (wow, didn't intend to rant. sorry).
In the meantime, I'd like to use the controller with some of my steam games. It's unbelievably simple to connect it to my PC, and it is recognized as an Ouya controller, but the buttons are mapped... strangely. For the life of me I can't understand why remapping the buttons is not built into windows. So.... anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Try the utility used for the Logitech Game Pad.

If the Ouya shows up as a "game controller", then you can map it. Look for the option in my screen shot attached below.

Unless I'm doing something wrong, that doesn't appear to work. The ouya controller comes up as a game controller (even when you use the "game controllers" link in the tray menu) but the "profiler" says that it does not detect any game controllers. I uninstalled and reinstalled the ouya controller to see if that would make a difference.
This is a bit ridiculous. An "open" system that you can't hack and can't repurpose. This thing is going to flop so badly at retail it's painful to think about it.
there are no drivers. You're more hoping that generic HID gamepad drivers are going to work. And CoachClass said to try it. He/she didn't claim it was going to work. Obviously, he/she has some experience or read of others using other controllers with it and that it if showed in the spot, it usually worked.
Now, if the controller actually turns out to be worthwhile, someone will create some kind of app to use it on the PC. Be patient, the console hasn't even been released to the public, so it's still in beta.

By your tone I'll assume you think I said something rude to CoachClass. I think you should reread my comment. I was just reporting back that I tried the suggestion and it didn't work. I appreciated the suggestion.

I'm not doubting my tone came off harsh or a bit rude. Collateral damage from other things. Nonetheless, I'm not going to excuse what I said, came off more harsh than intended. My tone was more overall to the post overall given the last line of your post. The other comments were more implied based off that line.
But what I said was true about the drivers, and the need to be patient for them to come along. If you like the controller, it may be worth while to ask Ouya to create the drivers at some point in the future.

I'm alright, we're cool.
I'm getting my Ouya next week, so I'll be able to play with it a little. I understand some of the disappointment. Ouya would be better as a pure Android machine. I won't referee whether the company lived up to their promise of making an open system or not. I could see that they meant open as in anyone could develop a game for it, but the rest of XDA wants a system that we can play with.
But, I'm still looking forward to using it for some of the things we know works. It would be nice if the Ouya controller can be repurposed as a PC controller, or even phone/tablet controller, but I'm glad other controllers (PS3, Logitech) could be used on the Ouya. That's a plus, so I'd give them credit for that.
Anyways, hope with more people working on the Ouya it'll be able to satisfy our expectations. I'm glad for everyone who's on this forum and generating ideas and trying out stuff.

Hey, wait a minute. Has anyone tried connecting the Ouya to their phone/tablet?
There's a bluetooth gamepad call the Moga. On the playstore, you can find an app for it. Not sure if that helps.

I connected mine to my galaxy tab 2 today, you need to hold the middle button down to get it to pair.
I was trying to figure out Tincore Keymapper, but it doesn't have very good documentation and the tutorial on YouTube skips a lot of early steps and moves way to fast.

Hopefully something similar will be available for Windows.

Bump, has anyone figured this out?
I used a Bluetooth USB dongle and the controller connects and is recognized as "OUYA Game Controller" in Win7 Devices but the buttons don't work with anything/arent mapped. In the Device Calibration I can light up all 16 buttons with the controller but outside of that they dont work. The touchpad works to move the mouse & click but nothing else.
This is weird, other video add-on are working ok but Icefilms is not connecting. All 3 of my AFTV are doing this and they were all working yesterday. I tried installing and re-installing XBMC 13.2, SPMC 13.4, Kodi 14.1 but nothing works, the weirdest thing is XBMC 13.2 on my Win8 machine can access Icefilms no problem. I am at a lost.
It is because the url has changed. You have to go to the addon settings and manually change the url to ipv6.icefilms.info, just add the ipv6 to the existing url and everything will work after that. You could have found the answer within seconds if you just googled it, cause their are thousands of videos on the fix, cause when something breaks in XBMC everyone feels like they have to make a video showing people how to fix it. You also could have did what anyone should do when they have a problem with an addon, go to the wesite where the developer has released their addon and there will be a thread for that addon that always has the fixes posted. That is what i do not understand, everyone always praises these devs, but they never listen to the devs, cause the devs always tell people if they have problems to comeback to the thread for a solution, but nobody ever goes back and instead they post threads elsewhere looking for fixes. People should stop praising devs if they aren't actually gonna listin to them and take advice from them. Not trying to be rude, but icefilms wasn't even released on this site and it seems crazy that you would ask for help here when you could have just went to the site where the addon was released and found your answer. Haven't you ever noticed that devs always say not to post their work elsewhere? They want you to come to them to find a solution and get updates etc, cause it makes everything easier if everything is in one place. Like I said, not being rude just giving advice. If an XBMC addon is broke its always best to find the release thread for it, cause all your answer will be located there.
Searching or Google is the first thing I did. Yes, I did found and tried changing the URL to http://ipv6.icefilms.info/ before I make a post on here. Changing the URL did NOT solve the problem.
I don't think it is crazy for me to go here for help because Icefilms works on XBMC for my Win8 machine and STOP working in all 3 of my AFTV which I didn't make any changes to
Thanks for your replay anyway.
EDIT: Ok, never mind. I figured it out. Icefilms was blocking one of my VPN connection.
