Permanently Enable ADB Over Network

[Eldon.McGuinness]

Here is a quick way to keep ADB over network a viable option, instead of having to turn it on over and over.

1. Connect to the ouya via ADB (network or usb)
2. Open a command prompt and open a shell to the OUYA
   

   adb shell

3. Gain admin rights
   

   su

4. Mount the filesystem as Read/Write
   

   mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP

5. Add the network option
   

   echo service.adb.tcp.port=5555 >> /system/build.prop

6. Mount the filesystem as Read Only
   

   mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP

7. Reboot!

Please note, this will not survive an update, so if you update your OUYA and notice it is no longer working, just follow the steps again.

Didn't they just add this option to the system menu to just switch ADB over network off or on? and if so wouldn't that be the same?

It is not present in OUYA's rom, But if it were, it would be the same

eldon: This as a .sh + .bat would be pretty neat

Its on the 1.2.676_r1 rom. I am using it right now. Just wondered if the settings don't stick or anything but it turns out they work great! Its about time they added an easy toggle switch to enable this

This does not survive an power cycle in my experience (note I don't mean a suspend, but a power on/power off)

It would, but since the session is on the OUYA, not the pc, it would not work, I tried heh.
