Known firmware versions

  • 0x0101
  • 0x0102
  • 0x0103
  • 0x0104

0x103

Performance/lag on 103 is much worse than on 102. (source)

0x104

Some apps don't detect or recognise the analog sticks. (Raiden Legacy, Mame, Muppen64) (source)

Dead zone problem

Some early controllers had a "dead zone" problem that caused in-game characters to walk instead of running. When removing the face plates, the problem is gone and the controller worked as expected.

A fix for this problem is replacing the sticks with XBox360 controller ones.

XBox360 controller replacement thumbsticks can be bought online, e.g. "zalati Thumb Grips 2 Pack Joystick Cap Thumb Sticks Compatible with Xbox 360 Controller".

Other controllers

If they only work partially, a key layout file is needed. See https://github.com/ouya-saviors/documentation/tree/master/keylayout
