Expensive! And limited functionality.

Might as well just buy a 7 or 8 inch cheap tablet and mount in front of/over existing HU.
[Security Discussion] kind3r:
I ordered from the same store, but the model for HR-V. Hardware and software is the same (it's a MTCD/E unit), your's has a larger screen. One thing to keep in mind is that the plastic surrounding the air vents might not match the exact color of your existing one (I've seen this on some youtube videos). Also, the unit ships from China to Germany (or UK in my case for whatever reason) and then to you, so it will still take 3-4 weeks to get it, but at least you don't have to pay taxes :). Mine will arrive next week and I will try to install it next weekend and report back as I promissed.

This is more or less the standard price for such a unit. Why do you say it has limited functionality ?

A tablet over the existing HU you would have to connect to power, audio and you will loose a lot of funtionality like steering wheel controls, reverse camera with guidelines, parking sensors location, all onboard computer stuff like mileage and trip history, radio etc. in which case I think you'd be better off just going old school with a windshield suction cup mounted phone holder :D.

---------- Post added at 19:52 ---------- Previous post was at 19:35 ----------

Did you downgrade yourself to RC6 or is it the software that came with your unit ? If you did not downgrade yourself, what is your software version ?

I noticed that software versions keep the last for digits for the model type (10.096.00.1123, 10.096.00.0021, 10.096.00.1103 etc.). Since your model is not listed, I would try to choose the files that have the same ending as your current firmware (if you have not downgraded yourself in which case you now have the 1123 firmware version).
[Security Discussion] joelmankell:
Thanks for your feedback! Reallity is that the HU came with 01.006.00.c.1125.... I downgraded to RC6 and am running 0E.094.00.1123 now. I see that I had from factory 1125 which suppose to be different htan 1123. But being honest I have not nottice anything strange except on bluetooth voice stability and voice quality...

Do you think I should upgrade using 1123 as for 6VH1 and 6VH2?
[Security Discussion] kind3r:
I'm not sure what to tell you, that does not look like the version format I have seen in this thread. Maybe it's a US unit ?
[Security Discussion] joelmankell:
It is one Honda Jazz unit manufactured in April 2018 and sold in Spain. May be is a new kind of hu....

Thanks in any case for your input!

Hmm, looks good. Price is ok. You made me curious. I also own a HR-V (Germany).

Following the description seems we cannot simply connect our inbuilt GPS module and microphone? Please keep us informed about this unit. Thanks
[Security Discussion] venturacom:
Another HRV owner interested in this alternative HU.

When we have detailed specification about the GPS and micro connectors attached in the device, we may search for adaptors in order to keep original built in devices and make installation simpler.
[Security Discussion] kind3r:
The adapter for the GPS antena is a SMA MALE to GT5-1S. Unfortunately I could not find one so I ordered a SMA FEMALE to GT5-1S and I will add an extra SMA MALE to SMA MALE extension. It will be some time before it arrives so I won't be able to test soon.

There is allready a mic integrated in the HU (actually I see 2 in the pictures), but people say it's really bad. The extra mic has a standard headphone jack connection. I did not try to look for an adaptor and I don't think there is one as the car mic is probably part of one of the main connectors on the harness, and to be honest it's not that good anyway.

Interesting concept but I would stay away from it. 2G ram, older android version, and not enough information about the internals and connections. Most likely not a MTCD/E unit so you would get little support in terms of updates/fixes. Also ugly interface IMHO :)

Satnav stucked in bootloop - model 6VC9

Hi there. I want to change skin but my satnav is stucked in bootloop. Is there a hope to get it back or device is dead? The technician folks at Honda dealer say that i have to change competly whole unit. Device typ is 6VC9 my car is a CIVIC Tourer 1.6 diesel from 2015. By rear gear shift the camera screen is on,but without guiding lines. So this is a pure software issue, i guess. Is there the AndroidOS bricked? :mad:

No, not yet. What does it mean RC7. I'am newbie here.

Thanks helping me

Mano
[Security Discussion] Legsmaniac:
RC7 is Release Candidate number 7 of the software. There's also RC 8, RC 6 etc.

My point being if you could try putting one of the RC softwares onto a USB flash drive, plug it into the USB port in the car and turn on the Head Unit to see if the unit will boot to the USB and load/install the software, thereby resetting and restoring the unit. Just a thought.

There's links to the RC's a few pages back in this thread with instructions.

Skin change might take as long as 3-4 minutes, maybe it is not stuck but you did not wait long enough to load the system up again.

Satnav stucked in bootloop - model 6VC9

Ok. I still have the problem(bootloop stuck). Yesterday arrived my USB Typ A cable. So my question is: USB flash disk shoud be prepared for boot (file format, executive file to copy) or is enough simply a FAT32 format and copy from RC7 there. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I want to do this steps:

Locate hidden USB at satnav device

Insert the Usb A cable attached to a pendrive containing RC7(or anything else essential to recognize\boot)

Pressing Brightness+Menu+Power combo simultaneusly to force satnav reset

...yes, and praying that it works (anyway i have nothing to lose)

Dear All!

i would like to downgrade an RC7 headunit to RC6 (Honda CR-V, Android 4.0.4, Build: 0F.095.01.0021)

I checked RC6 update matrix, where I see I need this update file (If I checked well :confused: ): "ADA_usbdl_V0E094000021_sec_14ada.zip"

Hello,

I have some serious issues with waze lately. The routing avoids toll roads/motorways regardless of the setting. I think this might be due to the new settings of toll/HOV passes. This is however not available in the version that is compatible with android 4.0.4 (the Hodna HU).

Does anyone else have this issue and have you somehow resolved it ?
[Security Discussion] Legsmaniac:
Yes, I resolved it.

By not using Waze. :laugh:

Using Google Maps, way better.

And Magic Earth/Navigator as offline backups.

No. But as I've said in posts way back, it only appears about 3 times each time you start the HU (each journey) and then that's it. Doesn't really bother me anymore. ;)

Hi

I dawngrounded from rc7 to rc6.

After installing honda permission. Now i want to upgrade to rc8.

Is it possible ?? Can I steel installing apk
[Security Discussion] sleepwalk3r:
Yes, you can do that, but you MUST skip the "Factory data reset" step of the upgrade procedure.

By skipping that step, you will keep the Honda Permissions app but you will also keep the older Garmin app (from CR7) if you have the version with navigation.
[Security Discussion] hafidelbazdari:
I don't have version with navigation. So now I can go from rc6 to rc8 directly??
[Security Discussion] sleepwalk3r:
Not 100% sure; but if you check the update matrix and the versions match, then I would say you can.

In my case; I installed the honda permissions app on RC7 and went to RC8 (without factory data reset).

[Security Discussion] raizenkohakus:
Hello all,

I have tried transplanting a Honda Navigation from a 2016 Civic Type R (RHD) to a 2012 Honda Civic 1.8 Petrol, I've yet to figure F-CAN and B-CAN and rerout the microphone from the HFT Module to the Head Unit but that's about all that's left..

Is there any way of bypassing the Anti-Theft System "Enter Code" screen?

My guess is that the unit is VIN Locked and the unit is reading my car VIN and refuses to bypass security because it's not the initial registration VIN.

The dealership codes do not work, it throws "Incorrect Code" at the official Honda codes.

(I've received 3 codes from Honda from which none of them work. (2 for the serial on the head unit and one for the serial number in the Diagnostic Menu, none worked).

Now Honda Dealership says they must send the unit back to the manufacturer (Denso Ten / Fujistu Ten Model 7230) at the expense of 400£ ?!

Now, It's an Android unit, the best they can do is reflash the Firmware and bill 400£ for that if that is even possible.

Is this something anyone has ever come across?

No matter what ignition and key combination you input, the Anti-Theft system will ask for the code, because it sees a different VIN than the original.

Kind regards and thanks in advance. :D

Hi,

I'm in Northants too. Do you think you could install Google maps on a 2017 Honda Jazz? I'd be happy to pay. It's a non-nav model but it's obvious from other functions that it has a GPS aerial installed.

[Security Discussion] greengriff:
It was googling around looking for a way to do it that lead me to this thread. The other instructions I'd read/found seemed to pertain to older models and/or showed a different screen layout to that on my Jazz, so I'd assumed there was no easy way to achieve what I wanted, hence me asking on a developer forum rather than taking a punt at doing it myself. I'll confess to not having read through this thread because it's over 200 pages long. Are the instructions buried within it or are they somewhere else? Once I've read them I'll be able to assess whether it's within my capabilities or not, with the main factor being the risk of bricking my head unit. If I turn out to be too much of a coward to try maybe we could arrange to meet up somewhere?

Cheers
[Security Discussion] skodann:
Just tell them that the code for your unit can only be obtained via TESS...they must know what is it...
[Security Discussion] raizenkohakus:
By TESS you mean Honda Technical ?

The manufacturer said Honda Technical Department can supply the code.

I went to the dealership twice, first they asked 400£, second time they asked 85£ because Honda Technical "might want to test some things on the unit" and I had to let it go because it was clear they were trying to rip me off. Sadly the Honda technical phone line seems to be dead to normal users so I can't call them myself either.

Video output for a second screen

First things first, hello to all, I'm from the UK and thanks to what S_Mike and all of you have produced here over the last 2 years I'm the happiest owner of a honda connect system with the ability of being led by google maps and watch Tom & Jerry cartoons with my 3 kids at the same time. Credit to you, S_Mike, clearly us, Poles, are not only good at plumbing.

I've got a small question that may be an easy fix, or may be impossible.

I've got 3 kids and watching mentioned above cartoons is a great fun (and often necessity), but my 4 yr old who sits behind the passenger's seat of my CR-V cannot see the screen very well. Does the Honda Connect system have a video output so I could connect a second screen at the back of the passenger's headrest? Is there any way of cloning the screen from the infotainment system to second/third screen?

Anyone tried something like this before?

I know that in some countries there are two screens in headrests but I'm not sure whether they're connected to the main unit, or just independent dvd players.

Any info would be massively appreciated

Cheers
[Security Discussion] Legsmaniac:
I'm sure there's possibly a way to do it but would I do it? No.

Why not? Since I'd have to buy the screens and wire them up, it would undoubtedly be cheaper and certainly less faff to just buy tablets and load up the same movies on sd cards. You can buy tablets quite cheaply now, new and/or second hand. The FireHD tablets for example. Cheaper than in-car DVD players too.

Sorry it's not what you're wanting but that's my personal take on it so it's what I would suggest you look into to save yourself time and money. ?
[Security Discussion] trabant600:
You're a very clever chap, Legsmaniac, and believe me, I wouldn't have written the above post if it wasn't a result of hours of thinking and working out the best solution.

Long story short:

I HATE looking at 6 yr olds with tablets in their hands. I've bought 2 tablets to set the system up for our european journeys last summer and:

1) 2 tablets, one at front, one at the back. Both have had earphones, both needed switching different cartoons every 20 mins, which drove us bonkers.

2) cables everywhere (chargers, earphones, etc) - I could have gone after wireless headsets, but that's even worse - battery's dying and my 4 yr old goes bonkers

3) utter lack of control over what to play, how long for etc. Ain't my thing.

Pros of having the Honda Connect with an extra screen at the back:

- the same cartoon for all, sound's coming from the speakers, I control it with my steering wheel's buttons and if daddy needs the screen for sat-nav, or needs to call someone, we stop watching cartoons and that's it. No crying, no begging as daddy needs the screen. Believe me, often necessity, when kids are mardy and tired after hours in the car.

- The front screen is well seen from the passenger's seat (my 6yr old), from the middle seat at the back (my little girl) and the additional screen would be for the 4yr old sitting behind the passenger.

- I fully control what do they watch, how loud is it, when to pause it if we need to discuss something etc.

We only use the Honda for social commuting (I cycle to school, my wife ain't work) but we still did 14k miles this year (going here and there every weekend, every half term etc) - many miles on the road with the kids and being able to play videos on Honda connect is a life saver, but my 4 year old barely sees the screen from the rear corner and I'll do everything to make things easier for him.

I don't mind spending money for an extra screen (to some extent, I'm only a teacher, so the budget is relatively limited), have some basic knowledge of electronics and have a Polish mate who's a magician in this field, but I want to do my homework before knocking to his door (he's got 3 kids as well).

Many many thanks in advance
[Security Discussion] Legsmaniac:
Thank you. :) :laugh:

Surely this would be mounted on the back of the seat just as you would a screen so how is that any different? :p

Fair enough but I can think of ways around that. No point elaborating since you obviously want the impossible anyway.

Again, surely you could wire tablets in nice n tidy just as you would a screen. :p

You do realise that having videos on the front screen whilst driving is illegal in the UK? Especially as it's in full view of yourself, and not blocked off.
