Hey Guys,
as the title says, I can't connect to my OUYA anymore.
What have I done?
Set up adb and sdk descripted here
https://devs.ouya.tv/developers/docs/setup
Set up wireless adb, busybox, superuser, and su binaries descripted here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272266
Everything worked fine so far.
Then I rebooted the OUYA. From now on the device manager didn't found the OUYA anymore. If I switch USB-debugging off, its found as 'portable device'. If I switch USB-debugging on, it disappears and there is no other new item.
OUYA factory reset
This didn't helped anything. But with this step I lost SU.
So, as i read, USB-ADB is shut down on OUYA as soon as you enable wireless-ADB. A terrible 'feature', whatever. Now I can't modify the build.prop to take out the "service.adb.tcp.port=5555" line.
I managed to get into the recovery mode (by connecting a keyboard and pressing alt+print+i multiple times, then home) , but that's pretty helpless if adb can't find the ouya.
Has anybody an idea how I can get adb working properly again? Any ways are good, flashing a new rom, getting su, factory reset, anything =D

If you can get into recovery, just copy over the latest OTA file onto a usb stick, wipe Data/cache then flash the OTA.
Also for windows, not doing " echo 0x2836 >> "%USERPROFILE%\.android\adb_usb.ini" " can sometimes make it not be found on its own, was originally required to do it for ADB
In recovery mode, the only way is to flash the OTA via ADB. There is no option like from usb-stick or internal/external sd-card.
and my adb_usb.ini seems to be correct.
But thanks for your suggestions (=
I had the same issues. I'm waiting on a replacement. http://forums.ouya.tv/discussion/comment/13562

I haven't messed with root/cwm, since there really isn't much brick protection... you might try 'adb reboot recovery' during bootup... if you can force it to fastboot, you can boot the recovery image, and it should have adb with su access, you should be able to repair you mistakes from there, or just do a data/cache reset to wipe the device.
EDIT: assuming you can get to fastboot somehow, you would just have to 'fastboot boot recovery.img' where recovery.img is the build of cwm.
EDIT 2: try booting with a usb keyboard, during boot, you might be able to spam the kernel with the key combination alt-SysRq-i. This may force it to boot into recovery... Then you should be able to either use regular ADB, maybe push a OTA.zip via ADB, and ultimately install a OTA... Hope some of this is helping, I have no real hands on practice with much of ADB on this specific device... But I'm a LONG time android tinkerer.
EDIT 3: If you're able to get it to crash and boot into recovery via Alt-SysRq-i . It's a recovery based on 4.x as it should be... and you should be able to 'adb sideload OTA.zip'... Sorry for all these edits, I just keep realizing I have more to say.

Will that require root?
Yes, since it's right inline with installing su, busybox, and supersuer using ADB. With the option to go ADB wireless, this is a necessity if you'll be installing CWM.

Yeah that's what sucks. I followed a post on here and thought I had the unit rooted but either I messed it up or the OTA updates wiped it out. Since I no longer have adb access I cannot get root to enable wireless adb access. Snake eating its own tale
Oh! I believe there are wireless adb apps that don't require root. Try looking into the play store to find out which ones.
Edit 1: The Play Store has a wireless ADB app by Sherdle [ADB Wireless (no-root)]which doesn't require root!

Hi everyone,
Actually I'm stuck the exact same way and I'm wondering if beowolfschaefer and JackBackstack have found a solution to get ADB work over TCPIP.
Thanks guys.

I'm missing something. I have read this a couple times but cant figure out what is happening.
Is your Ouya not booting up at all?
If it boots can you do an
adb connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and then adb shell to get a shell?

The Ouya is booting perfectly and wifi-ADB is enable. Problem is I can't connect to it anymore.
I already tried adb connect 192.168.xxx.xxx but i get a "device not found" error. It's the good IP (check on the Ouya and on my router with the MAC Adress)
It might be a port probleme. I tried both 5037(default) and 5555.
By the way, in the settings, should I switch USB-Debugging on or off ? Or it doesn't matter ?

I am pretty sure USB debugging needs to be on for ADB to accept connections. make sure it is on
I know my way around fastboot, adb, command line pretty well, but I just got my N7(2013) last night, so in that sense, I'm a Noob.
Questions:
Can I just root with SuperSU without TWRP? Or will the stock recovery not let me do that? i.e. is there a signed SuperSU? I would rather keep my stock recovery, if possible.
After I root, do USB storage devices connected via an OTG cable "Just Work"? Do I have to manually mount them? Does it enable a Menu?
Is there any way to enable USB Storage (The other way, when N7 is connected to PC) once I root? Is anybody working on this?

Suggest you do
fastboot boot twrp.img
instead of flashing twrp onto the tablet's recovery partition
This will run twrp temporarily to install SuperSU's update.zip but will leave stock recovery on your tablet untouched.

Recognition is automatic. Mounting is not. So yes, you need to mount them. Whether you do that manually or through a helper app like stickmount is up to you

Doubtful. N7 doesn't have a real sdcard partition formated fat32. It has a simulated sdcard kept in the /data/media folder. MTP/PTP are the only ways Google wants to support storage going forward.
Thanks, sfhub;
Great trick about running twrp once.
That way I can have root, and my stock recovery.
Thanks for the other info, too.
No MTP or Storage show on PC
I am running windows 7 64 bit and I have managed to get root on my new Nexus 7, but now when I plug my tablet into the PC it says on the tablet connected as media device, but it never shows up anywhere on my pc so that I can transfer files on to it. The nexus 7 never shows up as an extra drive or as an media device. Please help. can not seem to find any info on this problem. the usb icon at the bottom of the screen does say eject nexus 7 when I click on it, and if I have usb debugging turned on it says ADB device connected but I still can not see it anywhere on the pc. Please help
Are you running stock or custom ROM?
If you running stock, you can try disabling USB debugging or try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391236
If you are on custom ROM, it appears there may be an MTP issue with some ROMs.
Yes I am using the stock rom .all I did was root it and I have tried with no success with usb debugging turn Off as well. I have even tried to uninstall the drivers I used to root the tablet , but can not find them to uninstall or delete them
In devmgmt.msc the device is either listed under
Android Phone
Imaging device
Portable device
Unknown
Do you see any ? or unknown devices?
In Devices and Printers in the control panel its listed under Unspecified as Nexus 7 but you can not do anything with it there but right click on it and hit eject or properties and it says Google Nexus ADB interface ___ Android Device ___ status working properly and that's it .In Device manager it listed as Android Device ___ Google Nexus ADB Interface.
I Got it Thank you Thank you. I was able to uninstall the drivers there in the Device manager, unpluged the Nexus 7 plugged it back in it install the correct drivers and I am now able to mount my device as a MTP device and transfer files. Thanks again for the Help.
I put Android File Transfer on my Macs:
http://www.android.com/filetransfer/
and gmtp on My Ubuntu Ultrabook, and on my old Xubuntu desktop.
I put the SD card in the Ultrabook, and copied everything I wanted to the N7(2013).
In all cases, it worked pretty much plug and play, but I still consider it a work-around.
A few weeks after rooting and installing CM10 on my GS3, it stopped recognizing any form of USB data connection. It still charges from both computer and wall adapter, but I cannot initiate a data transfer or recognize my device using ADB.
I have tried:
three different OEM Samsung cables (from SG3/SG4 phones)
all the ports on two different Win 7 laptops
all the ports on an Ubuntu desktop
enabling or disabling USB debugging
with different combinations each time. No "USB connection" dialog has shown up on the phone, and no "new device" dialog has shown up on any of the computers. I know that I can get ADB working with a different Android phone (HTC Inspire 4G) so I know that my main laptop has USB ports that work and the cables I've tried work as well, so I'm left to assume that the issue is with the GS3. External visual inspection does not suggest the USB port on the phone is damaged, and the phone is only a year old, so I don't believe that is the cause.
Is there a system setting that I may have modified on the GS3 that would disable all forms of USB communication?
(The end goal is to get at least ADB working so I can try and recover some deleted files from the internal memory; I haven't found a reliable method that does not require ADB so I'm trying to get that to work. I know that transferring files on or off can be accomplished with the external SD card or over Wifi but that is not what I'm looking for)
Any suggestions from anyone?
I am not sure. Could be a software issue. I would try backing up your current cm ROM and try installing a fresh touchwiz ROM to see of that works, to rule out software issues. This could also be a android 4.3 issue. Could try stickmount or a similar otg app from the market.

I don't think any OTG app like stickmount will help; I'm not trying to connect devices to my phone. I'm trying to get my computer to recognize my phone (and vice versa) in order to get ADB working.
If I can avoid flashing a RAM I'd like to, because I'm still interested in recovering those deleted files. If that is the only thing that would help, though, then I'll do it. Any other suggestions?
Install Kies and that should get the drivers for the pc in place. Odin should recognize the device when it is in the download mode. If that works, then the pc to phone connection is OK and I'd look to software instead of hardware.
Or, if you boot into your custom recovery, either CWM or TWRP, you should be able to get ADB to recognize the device and issue commands including pulling the files on Internal storage. TWRP also has a file browser built in that might be useful.
I have tried uninstalling any Samsung drivers then using the SGS3 toolkit to install the official drivers, but that didn't change anything on the PC end.
Additionally, I tried finding my device while it was in recovery using ADB and there was no connection indication either.
I currently have CWM installed, but I didn't see a mounting option like I've seen for TWRP. Can I flash TWRP without a computer?
Or try this out: Download mode>Connect via USB>Let Windows download and update all drivers until the notification in the bottom right says it's ready to use>Unplug>Battery Pull>Boot normally>connect again. Voila! It works every time when it's being wonky and its a simple way that doesn't require a bunch of downloads!
installing insecure adb might help
Rebooting into download mode does nothing.
I believe rooting and installing CM10 means I already have insecure adb?
thanks
thanks
what next?

I'm on DP3 and had flashed elementalx with temp TWRP. Now I am unable to get file transfer nor ADB to pull up on my phone. I'm unable to upgrade to DP4 due to custom kernel, and can't use ADB to restore boot.

Try different USB A to USB C cables and ports for starters, and make sure your platform-tools are up to date. You may have to factory reset to get pc to phone connection. And even then there are no guarantees. ?
I was able to get it working. I turned of USB debugging and back on and now it connected.
Phew!

Oh nice! There's another possible solution to the ever growing list of....OH CRAP! My pc isn't recognizing my device anymore!
I unlocked the bootloader, I did a wipe data and now the firestick is stuck on the firetv black screen, cant access the menu, cant connect through adb with the computer connected via usb.
I can access TWRP with otg cable and mouse, but I dont have any rom to flash on device, so I cant reflash it, I dont have access to adb to push it either.
If I connect a usb hub to the otg, and connect the mouse and a usb stick at the same time, can I access the usb stick memory to flash the rom zip file?
Help
Update:
Problem solved I did the unlock bootloader process again as Pretoriano80 advised and it worked, I got access again to TWRP, used adb to push the rom and flashed the rom again.
Thank you.

Yes, if you connect a mouse + usb stick (fat32) you will be able to flash a stock rom. In TWRP you will have to switch from internal memory to the OTG stick.
Thank you for the answer thats good news.
So any usb hub should work right, i will have to buy one.

If TWRP works, then you can push a stock firmware from PC to the FireTV Stick with ADB. Just make sure that your stick is connected to your pc with the original USB cable (not OTG).
I already tried.
When connecting directly to pc, no otg cable, I cant use adb, looks like after I wiped data the device lost the adb.
I tried adb shell it says no devices/emulators
I tried adb devices, none listed
So I cant connect through adb, I cant access recovery nor I can push the flashable rom.
The only way I can access is with otg cable + mouse.
That leaves me with only one option, use the hub to connect mouse + stick to the otg cable and flash through otg usb in TWRP.

TWRP's ADB should work, but probably you can't boot into TWRP without OTG. The solution is to do the unlock procedure again so after the last step it should boot to TWRP automatically.
If that fails, then you can buy an USB hub.
Thank you for helping really appreciate that.
I will run the procedure again, will keep you posted about the results.
Ok tried it
No response from device
After ./bootrom-step.sh it says waiting for bootrom, I do the short connect the device but the computer doesnt recognize it, keeps saying waiting for bootrom no matter what I do.
So I think theusb hub is the only resource now.

Great! No problem, it happened to me once and has been the only that worked for me (without the need of an usb hub, of course), so i was pretty sure that it would work for you too.
