OUYA Store + KitKat - Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I put a KitKat rom on my OUYA, is there any way to get the official/unofficial OUYA store on the device as well?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/ouya-store-amazon-fire-tv-t2806575
Installing the apks from there will give you the ability to run the OUYA launcher and discover. There's another app on here that allows you to download OUYA games. Can't remember the name of it right now.

You can download Ouya Downloader from the play store. Pretty much lists all the apps you can get from the ouya store, but not in order so it's a bit of a pain navigating. But it works! I would post a link but it won't let me

[Q] Ouya Update Error, please help.

I have a rooted Ouya and when entering Ouya launcher the update auto downloads just fine, then when installing I get an error screen (Ouya logo with exclamation point below). When i unplug or just wait it goes back to my specified launcher and everything seems to be fine. Any ideas on how to get this installed because the ouya launcher is not really usable until i get it. I used Rootmyouya.apk, the one click. I also have my mod collection for ouya installed. Is there a setting preventing installation? Thank you for any help.

I am running from nova launcher currently, but use the ouya launcher for the ouya store. When I load the ouya launcher it will automatically begin downloading an update (the chupacabra update) but will give me the error when it attempts to install the update. Everything is working fine without the update with the exception of the Ouya store (will not load without it). Is there a way to purchase content from the ouya store, online site only say "push to my Ouya" but will not let you purchase full versions of stuff from ouya store.

Friend,
I have no idea about this problem...
You need the custom recovery.

spmc setup

hi all,
im in the process of setting up my new aftv (UK no root)
im working my way through the guides to figure out how to sideload appss.
my questions are, which version of apk file do i download rom spmc website. launcher or non launcher? will launcher allow me to load from start even though im not rooted?
also, how do i get google play store onto aftv, would that allow me to download apps such as bt sport or are they all a no go for non rooted devices. just trying to figure out how much i can do with this nice little box

1 Non launcher is your only choice without root
2 no google play store without root
If the apps that you want to sideload from google play is a free app, then it can be done without root using APK Downloader. But that doesn't mean that they will actually work properly on the Ftv.
Thankyou thats exactky the info i was after.
Can i just ask what everyones uses to sideload apps. The original guide was a bit over tge top and then noticed aftv utility and adb fire.
I will also need sonething to move over zip files to allow install of navi x

Download APK From Amazon App Store ?

Is there any way to download apk directly from amazon app store on computer? like these sites that do that for play store?

I'd asked the same thing months ago. I've yet to find a direct method. What I've done was to install things to my phone or tablet, then sideload them. Or if you are just wanting to backup the apk, there are many backup apps out there.

I wanted that to try sideloading app's from Amazon App store that are marked as non compatible with Fire TV, but few of then should work fine..
Maybe some apps that require Google Account does not require in the Amazon App Store (not tested)

The best way to do that is to download them to a compatible device then sideload them. f you are rooted, you can install the Google Play Store too and access many more apps.

An Alternative method is to install them on a compatible device from the Play Store, and then extract them with an apk extractor, also from the Play Store.
It's still a mystery (to me) why Amazon hasn't figured out what's compatible with the fire and what's not.
Yeah, but the main problem is that some apps require google account (google services must be installed) and some of then does not require that in the amazon app version..
My device version can't be rooted... i got it with an rooteable version, then i turned it on (without internet) and after reading few tutorials in how to root it, after few hours it started updating automatically and i was not able to cancel it (IT WAS WITHOUT INTERNET) ¬¬

Then your only choice is to use a different device to install them on from the Amazon Appstore, then sideload them to the FTV. It's easy to do. There are several apps that will sideload an installed app on one device directly to the FTV.

Correct. So I guess I've been lucky. I'm not rooted and so far I've been able to install everything I've wanted to install. Except, of course, the Play Store itself. Which IMO, is only an inconvenience.
What is it you want to install? What do you want your FTV to do that it doesn't?
I install the app on my tablet, and then use AGK to sideload to my FireTV stick. My tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, running ICS 4.0.4, and won't run Kodi for example (it's not a Neon device). This method is how I was able to get Kodi installed on the Fire stick. Of course the problem is getting the app installed on the tablet if it's listed as non-compatable by Anazon. As for making backups of apps on my tablet, I use ES Task Manager. Free and works like a charm.
asphalt 8 amazon apk
I have a similar problem. I have a fire hd 6 and no other amazon device. I would like asphalt 8 on it but it says it is incompatible. I cant believe this quad-core tablet couldn't handle asphalt when my moms old single core acer can. If I get the apk from my nexus 7 (also shows as incompatible with asphalt in amazon store) I get a no license error. I bought the game on the amazon site so if anybody has the apk I would appreciate it. Thanks
I just released an extension for Chrome for downloading APK files from Amazon Appstore directly on your PC. You can check this thread for more information

Start by installing it on a phone or tablet with Google Play services. Then use a free app like Apps2Fire to install it from that device to your stick. Not sure if it will keep the Pro features or not. But let us know. If it doesn't then there might be other methods to try like installing the PlayStore on the FTVS1 if rooted & others. But try that simple sideloading option first.
