I'll get new Connect update tomorrow for my Civic.

But I go for RC6, cuz actually I fear RC7.
[Security Discussion] PIFS2:
How can i know i am in rc7?

what is exactly number version to rc 7?
[Security Discussion] Manfred.62:
sadly there is no exact info from Honda. Also no changelog available.

The newest version I've found in this thread is 0F.095.01.1123 (post). Seems to be RC7.

0E.094.00.1123 seems to be RC6 or RC6.1 (post).

Looks like Honda is counting upwards. 0E --> 0F; 094 --> 095

EDIT: just found this thread

Think we have to ask Mike how he found out about permissions...

Hello.

I bought a 2015 UK Civic (RHD) last week which has the Android 4.0.4 OS and "hard buttons" Been trying to follow through this thread and see if there is anything I can do to install APK's? I have enabled "Unknown Sources" but cant seem to get in to the developer mode like the "soft button" versions. I have tried to install APK's that have been renamed to HondaAppCentre_A1.apk but the install button is greyed out still.

Is there anything I can do with this version of head unit / OS?

Thanks
[Security Discussion] Manfred.62:
Are you able to do a factory reset via Android settings menu in this system? If so, try it.
[Security Discussion] djclark25:
Yes!!!! Factory reset, renamed the permissions app to hondaappcenter_a1 and installed along with satnav! Thanks a lot!!! ????
[Security Discussion] Ilanio:
Sugestions to try to install Apps on RC7:

1. Try to rename to other allowed apps used on older units:

- GarminNavigator.apk

- AhaRadio_A1.apk

- Aha.apk

2. Try to use variations of HondaAPPCenter:

- HondaAppCenter_A2.apk

- HondaAppCenter_B1.apk

- ...

Need someone to try and report

First of all thanks to all the guys here figuring things out. You're doing a great job!

Ihope you guys can help me. I have a 2015 Honda Jazz with Navigation and successfully installed Google Maps. Afterwards I installed Google TTS and configured it in Android settings (switched from PicoTTS, downloaded the file, selected the voice), but Maps won't talk to me. Also tried the Navi settings for com.google.android.tts in HondaPermissions, but still nothing. What can I do?

Hello,

Did somebody realize that developer options is available? In the same menu of VSP_Error, we can switch it on and USB debugging is activated. (I attached pictures)

That could be interesting to perform a root using that feature (In case you know how to root a device that way :confused:)

7. Search for SNAPSHOT option and set it to ON (This will record changes made on VPS ERROR parameter, otherwise you will need to change it everytime you turn on your unit).

It works?

[MENTION=6358174]S_Mike[/MENTION]

With the new factory rc7 there is no way to install apks. With the rc6.1 (it is the last one available in dealerships) if that lets install, but to me it gave me problems when copying through esfileexplorer the files of maps of sygic to the unit honda connect. But I got it to work from the pen drive.

Maybe I changed the name of the application that has permissions to install? Would there be any way to find out?

In the factory rc7 the name of the app is Honda App Center ver 3.5 (com.honda.appcenter)
[Security Discussion] Manfred.62:
Means, RC7 will only be delivered from factory in new cars? Before updating we have to ask the dealer about the version.

Did you compared the name with your version? Is it the same?

Hello

How to create a account in Google maps please?
[Security Discussion] Ilanio:
For me works. (RC5)

You need to set SNAPSHOT to ON and left it in this state.

If you turn it to OFF, default parameters are loaded.
[Security Discussion] PIFS2:
Precisely I do not put on off when switched off the connect it changes by itself.

Despite turning SNAPSHOT ON, I have to change VSP ERROR parameter every time I start the engine.

You have HRV?
[Security Discussion] Ilanio:
Yes. Mine is HRV Touring (2017) made in Brazil.

VSP_ERROR remains OFF when I turn off/on the unit and all Apps work when the car is moving, independently of the VIDEO OUT parameter of S_Mike's Honda Permissions.
[Security Discussion] PIFS2:
I have a HRV of 2015 I do not understand why it does not work.
[Security Discussion] Ilanio:
On other forums here in Brazil (in portuguese) a lot of people reported these procedures work for their cars.

I think there is differences of compilation for units used in latin america and India from others used in USA and Europe.

For example, on units of USA, the Start Screen Warning goes out after some time and you can use unit, even you dont press any button

In Brazil you need to press OK otherwise you can't use unit.
[Security Discussion] PIFS2:
Yes it is the same here in Europe one must press OK

There is another way to install applications, from the web honda app store https://ivhs.os.ixonos.com/honda.

From here you can download some application, and later from the app honda app store and with a pen drive allows to install it.

I have tried changing the name of an apk by NavxParking_A1.hap (The extension of the app is hap, but it does not let me upload such a file, so it is renamed apk) but it does not allow installation.

I upload the downloaded app in case anyone knows how to do to get install app with the factory RC7.

Honda Connect RC7 still problem with android apk's

Hello everybody.

For those with Honda Connect RC7 (0F. ......). Is there

(a) any chance to rollback firmware to RC6.1 (0E. .....)?

(b) use successfully any backdoor for install android *.apk?

HU - No reset to factory settings possible

Hello,

I did a factory reset today (through Android menu) because my system was quite slow due to testing too many apps. Now I wanted to reset to factory settings and only install my mandatory apps.

After I initiated the reset to factory settings the HU rebooted and stopped with the following screen (not enough posts yet. Picture can be found here: h t t p ://photouploads.com/images/0a1f45.jpg) telling me that the default settings could not be restored. The system stays there no matter which buttons I press. Also another reboot didn't help. Same result.

The debug output I got after pressing the HOME button (I put the log here in case someone has the same issue):

E:cannot load volume /misc!

E:cannot load volume /misc!

/data wiping......

wipe_volume() failed. volume:/data

E:wipe_volume() failed. volume:/data

E:cannot load volume /misc!

ipas_if_write_log_keep ret:-1

Someone has an idea? Does it maybe help to do another reset? What is the procedure to try to do another "hard reset" without the android menu which is not accessible anymore. Diagnostics menu (Brightness+Menu+Power) also doesn't work anymore.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

Johannes

Try following :

Switch ignition to I, then long press power button (10 sec)

Thanks, but it did not help. Same screen displayed afterwards.

Some further info: When I initiated the reset through the android menu, I had an USB Stick connected. I tried the long press of the power button with ignition set to I with the connected Stick and also without the stick but same result.

What else can I try now. Factory settings restore can also be done with special button pressing? Thanks.
[Security Discussion] Manfred.62:
Hmm, I think you have to go to the dealer and ask for support.
[Security Discussion] JHxdaForum:
Okay. I was expecting it :) But anyway thanks for your help.

DO you know which version the dealer will install? If I can ask for it, which version to take? I understood the following:

RC7 - NOT possible to install apks

RC6.1 - possible to install apks (I just read in one post that one user had problems with copying files)

RC6 - possible to install apks

RC5 - possible to install apks

RC4 - possible to install apks

So should I go for RC6.1 or RC6? And does the dealer know it by this name? Thanks
[Security Discussion] ENRIQUEMM:
In case of updating your unit in any distributor as of today only have rc6.1. (Until the end of 2017 there will be no RC7 in dealerships) (See attached document)

In case of a change of unit I would not know to tell you which version it would come from, although assuming they have some secure storage unit that is rc5 at most.

Another possibility is that they put a remanufactured unit, ie repaired, since in these cases is usually the procedure to follow in case of replacement ...., in the latter case I would not know to tell you which version rc comes from, since it depends on how long the repaired unit is. Luck!

Alternatively, install another version of the current one instead of the one that works? or with hdmi?
[Security Discussion] LayzJay:
apologies if it's been covered already, I read most of this thread when it was in full swing.

I've got a chromecast plugged into the hdmi port and cast my phone to the HU.

I have to use another phones hot-spot as the latest play services update doesn't allow a phone to cast to the same network the phone is on...not a problem.

Obviously when I take the hand brake off the casting is stopped. Would he nice to use Google Maps.

Can I stop the hand brake stopping the casting with the Honda permissions?

Turning off the DD VSP error every time I start the car is a PINA
[Security Discussion] danyventura:
There is no way to set VSP parameter to OFF using HondaPermission by Mike.

If you want a solution to avoid setting VSP OFF every time you start the engine you could use this cable:

h**p://btglobalsolutions.net/estore/video-in-motion-cable-kit-parkingbrake-bypass-V2-BT-802

Is "easy" to install and solve your problem.
[Security Discussion] crystip:
Hi, do you use this cable ? It's a permanent fix for hdmi while driving, it's working at any speed ?

If yes, on which car/version ?

Thanks.
[Security Discussion] Beck511:
I just got one of those cables too and I have ordered an Apple CarPlay dongle which has a video out. Still waiting on the dongle to come tho.
[Security Discussion] danyventura:
I don't use it because under my point of view using Mike permissions and installing apps is enough. I don't want to use HDMI port if there is alternative way.
[Security Discussion] crystip:
As far as I know, there is no permanent and simple one-cable solution for hdmi while driving... From other forums discussions, it seems that you need to deal with two information coming toward head unit logic, one from PCM module - Vehicle Speed Pulse and one from Handbrake Switch. If ether one is present, hdmi will not work.

Another possibility is to try to find the service/process for hdmi and change his permissions with Mike's Permissions.

I'm still hoping that someone will figure it out what is the solution. Hdmi port is a good backup to have, for GPS apps.

[Security Discussion] S_Mike:
As I mentioned before I created application which works in driving mode. Feel free to use it for test purpose. Be careful when you driving!

One note: It won't work if you have garmin navigation. The reason is that I modified my old game and changed root package to com.garmin.autooem. That's why Honda grant permissions to using "in driving mode". I don't have garmin navigation so I could install that package.

What we know:

ApplistUpdate.apk

contains two files:

- allowed_installations.list - this contains apk's names that are allowed to install. In this file there is

HondaAppCenter_A1.apk

marked as

PREINSTALL

. No sha1 digest, that's why our trick with apk name works.

- process_controls.list - contains packages and permissions. In this file there is among others com.garmin.autooem that's why my application works in driving mode.

There are two possibilities to using third party app in driving:

1. You can modify/decompile/compile app so that has root package occuring in process_controls.list and that we don't have installed yet.

2. You can try to modify process_controls.list file. Theoretically it is possible because I have already decompiled ApplistUpdate.apk and I saw what this app is doing. We could try create similar application doing the same but with our modified file.

Enjoy!
[Security Discussion] S_Mike:
Tom, this could be a part for my second solution.
