That's probably why we tell OUYA users to use that build ;)

Just followed the wiki to install on my freshly arrived (and updated) Ouya. Two small points of feedback
Am I correct this installs Gotham alpha 1 (and not 5) as recommended? compared filenames with the ones in libstagefright sticky, which you can see on mouseover and looks like the one. Might be good to mention so anyone asking support can at least mention version installed.
I saw a screen that says downloading. I have a 50mbit connection and after a minute simply left the browser only to find no "downloads" in storage, just apps, misc andand available...not sure if there is a popup once it finishes? Indeed I see no progress. 50mbit should do this in a few secs unless the host is slow. So stranded now, will redownload and wait longer. for now no XBMC.
Appreciate the work!

That link does look like Gotham Alpha1 to me.
Also, try downloading ES File Explorer from the second (Estrongs) link in Google, click on the download tab at the top of the page.
ES File Explorer lets you see the progress of your downloads and the download folder as well as letting you install apk files from a USB drive.

Yep, for OUYA Alpha 1 is currently recommended. Others will have more stability issues.

Posting this from my OUYA now, using my Logitech k400r keyboard.
I may be just doing it wrong, or maybe I'm the first one to post...dunno. I wanted to tell you that while the wiki looks great, the formating of the link to the APK is such that I am unable to copy it or go to it from the wiki itself. All that seems to happen when I try to select it is activating the zoom feature of the browser, which then only drags the page back and forth. This is with both the gamepad and the keyboard. Stock browser, which is likely to be the way most people try to get the APK for the first time.
It may be a good idea to make the link formatted AND clickable.

Is there a way to automaticly start up XBMC on the OUYA? There is an app called "BOOT". You can download it in the OUYA app screen but that didn´t work for me...

Thanks for updating the wiki.
Perhaps good to post the main issues? I can't play DVD ISO or vob/ifo if they have a menu. Found it elsewhere. Pretty old format but widely used.
