So the Waze audio works, but just wanna confirm I cannot adjust volume via steering wheel when Waze is ON? I can play radio, music etc whilst Waze is running but the vol for those items can only be done via HU not steering. Is this how its supposed to be?

Still seeking google maps and netflix, what version are ppl using
[Android General] ispofe:
Yes, it is a known problem that when Waze is running in the forefront it disables the controls on your steering wheel.

What you can do is temporarily press the "BACK" button on the head unit (Waze shows cancel or shut), then the steering controls will work. Then press the 'BACK" button again to return to Waze after using the control to change tracks or volume etc.

Regarding what version people are using, I have found that you can use many versions even the latest version in some cases, so long as it is a version that works on Android 4.2.2.

The way I update is, I still have an old Android 4.2.1 phone that I did not dispose of, I update the app on that phone to the latest version and then use a backup app to make a backup copy and I then copy this to my USB stick that is in the car and install the apk onto the head unit. This has worked for most apps I use, I am running Waze 4.32.03 without issues. Some apps will not work, so make sure you have a copy of your current version to revert back.

Google Map has issues, because it requires PLAY services to run, which nobody has found a stable solution.
[Android General] TWINTRBO:
Ah, it is so nice to be able to edit the white list from the head unit itself. My Waze is working the way I like it again.

As far as volume control while using Waze, the easiest way is to toggle the side view camera. While it is showing the side view you can use your steering wheel volume and easily switch back without looking for the head unit buttons.

I haven't tried it. Didn't know there was such a thing. But reading that forum it says that the app should work for Accords after the HU has been rooted. But still need to use the root method provided in this forum for the accord, and not the civic forum

You can install via USB only if you've injected the whitelist with the app signature

No keystore in whitelist for APKs

Hi

I have successfully rooted my HU but getting the following error message after the APK has uploaded.

Issuing APK installation command - this may take a while depending on APK size

Not sure if this is the problem but I looked into the whitelist.xml and it seems like any of the APKs I try upload don't have the APK signature., the Keystore xml tag is missing.

I have tried several different APKs and its the same result, I get the upload error message and the Keystore tag is missing.

Appreciate any help. Is there a way to manually look up the APK signature so I can add it into the whitelist file?

tx guys got it, wondering if anyone has Youtube working except form chrome browser, I have apple car bridge ( tweaked ver of carplay ) which has it working nicely - switch songs and vids via steering
[Android General] g37s:
Just an update here, so I tried the hack on a 2018 PIlot HU and it doesn't work. It seems the ADB wifi port is not open. I even used a port scanner to confirm all 1000 ports are closed. I was however able to get into the Developer menu by holding down a series of buttons.

Would it be possible to enable ADB over wifi through the Developer menu?

If not, could I install Waze without having the root the HU through the Developer menu?
[Android General] NoSLoppy:
Help please!

So I am getting the following when running the script and am very hesitant to hit enter to proceed.

Is this normal output when first rooting? I see nothing about whitelist or apk, so possibly I need this first step to just root then run a second time for the apk install?

Page 1 instructions say "The script will root your device if it's not already, then go ahead and perform steps necessary to install the APK (one reboot required if already rooted). "...Does that mean 2 reboots are needed if NOT already rooted?

P.S. has anyone bricked their system doing this?

I sincerely appreciate any reply here, thanks.

Which version of Netflix and YouTube worked for you?
[Android General] g37s:
Well, I haven't given up yet on my 2018 Pilot despite nobody responding on here :X I'm trying to connect via ADB over USB so that I can enable ADB over wifi, I found the setting for "USB debugging" and enabled that. But when I connect via USB A to A cable into the Pilot I'm not seeing anything under "adb devices -l" command. I'm guessing based on what you said I need to change the USB mode? Where is that USB mode setting on the Pilot?
[Android General] badabing2003:
You have to go through the hidden menu.

You can also check this thread. (Not sure if it applies to pilot)

[GUIDE] How to enter developer mode on 2017 Honda Civic (and now root & install apps)

https%3A%2F%2Fforum%2Exda-developers%2Ecom%2Fshowthread%2Ephp%3Ft%3D3621582
[Android General] g37s:
I think it may not apply to the Pilot... when I get to the below steps, I'm able to access the hidden menu but holding down the HOME key does nothing. This is the same hidden menus I used to enable USB debugging but I can't seem to find any setting related to USB mode.

On a side note, when I connect the USB A to A cable to my Pilot my Windows 10 PC shows a CD rom connected. and device manager shows a USB Mass Storage device.

But adb devices -l command still shows no devices connected.

> Now hold the MENU key to enter another menu.

> Then Hold the HOME key to enter the last menu. You should first hear two consecutive beeps and then one final beep.

Did you try extracting the package info and pushing it to the whitelist so you can install via thumb drive?
[Android General] g37s:
I'm still trying to get this to work on a 2018 Honda Pilot HU which doesn't have the adb wifi port open. Below are the steps I've taken...

1. Access the developer menu to turn on USB debugging - hold the power button, menu button, and brightness setting button. In about 2 seconds the diagnostic menu will pop up. Enter the developer menu select detail & information then hold menu for 2-3 seconds. In the developer menu you can enter the hidden android settings menu where you'll be able to turn on USB debugging.

2. Purchased and connected a Universal File Transfer Cable (A to A) to connect PC to Pilot USB port.

3. Next step is to run the "adb tcpip 5555" command to enable ADB over wifi port however I'm unable to get adb devices -l command to show the Pilot HU listed on my PC.

At this point I'm thinking either it's a driver issue (Maybe I need to get the Clarion HU Android driver for Windows?) OR the USB port has to be changed from Host to Device on the Pilot which I haven't figured out a way to do.

Anyone else have any thoughts?
[Android General] NoSLoppy:
Nevermind, the answer was, yes, that is what the script says during first run.

Looks like you can remap the steering wheel controls to certain things, bypass parking break, install/uninstall apps, and looks like you get more with a pro version for $18. It helps you install Sygic with R/W access to external usb etc...

This works on my '17 Pilot. I tried this on my '16 Accord, and I was unable to get any movies to play while parked or otherwise.

I rooted the headunit

I installed ES Explorer, HondaHack, and VLC

In the HondaHack app, I enabled the parking break bypass

I loaded music and movies onto an exFAT or fat32 formatted 64 gig flash drive. (Probably fat32, most the movies I have are 1080p, 5.1 audio and under 2 gigs)

Plugged it into the center console USB slot

To play music I choose Source -> USB

To play a movie on the front headunit I launch ES Explorer, and choose the movie. Then it asks what app I want to use to play the movie, and I choose VLC

How did you manage to install the HondaHack?

Do you need to change the usb from host to device? if so, where did you go? I follow the guide for the civic 2017, but even if I hold the home button, notting happens like G37s.

I try to install it with the USB a to a cable, but i've got an error about the usb setting that need to be set to device.

I forgot to mention but I own a Honda Pilot 2017 RES. I went to the civic thread for instruction about the HondaHack that allow to bypass the parking brake, but can't figure how to install. This thread is so HUGE, I don't find the answer to my question. I've read a lot, but I guess I miss something.

So far, I rooted my Head unit and install Waze, VLC and Es Explorer with the wifi One click crack. But the file that I got from the civic forum was an .exe file that execute from a windows pc. Is there another file like an APK that can be install when rooted to get the HondaHack?

I try to manualy update the whitelist on my unit with es file explorer and then install via usb, but the install button stay gray. I've double check the whitelist in data/system and it's the last version with the apk signature for the HondaHack....

Like many of us, this is new stuff for me. So I will ask a dumb question. I'm not familiar with android signature. Is the signature of the apk the same for everybody? If so, can you post it please?

Or I'm missing a point in the process.

Thanks again
[Android General] surface13:
Only thing I can suggest is to make sure you only have 1 entry in your whitelist for the HondaHack app. If you have more than 1 entry of the app and signature, you won't be able to install the app via USB. I hope this helps, and good luck!
[Android General] TWINTRBO:
If you have had several failed attempts at installing apps then I'm sure your whitelist is a mess now. I highly suggest taking a look at it in the directory you are using for install. It's fairly easy to clean it up and then push it back to the head unit. There are instructions in these threads that you can follow to do that.

Not sure if you want to do this, but I'd recommend pushing your original factory_reset.sh back, then reset your HU to factory defaults, then use the OneClick to install ES Explorer and HondaHack. After that, you can install VLC. Not sure why you're installing waze on a 2017 pilot, unless you're using an iphone and you don't like carplay?

You're right, I've got an Iphone and I don't like carplay. That's why I installed waze, witch works pretty well for me now.

The main reason for the hondahack is for the parking brake bypass.

As you installed it, can you tell me if with that function ON, text message are displayed on the screen while driving? All my system are in english, but I receive most of my text message in french. The read text message is useless to me in that situation...

Since I use Android Auto, my texts are read to me. I don't think I've ever had my texts displayed on the screen while in park or otherwise connected with or without AA

A bit off topic but anyone know anything about micro controllers? I'm trying to see if its possible to pull the data of this. its a micro controller to bypass the video in motion. the wiring layout is 5v power, ground, tx (transmit) for Can H wire, tx for Can L wire, rx (receive) for Can H, and rx for Can L.

It was apparently bricked to the point of complete replacement (or the tech guys didn't know how to reflash it). Honda just replaced the entire unit, and of course under warranty :).

I'm still going to work on this, but take things slow so as not to trigger another warrant repair any time soon.
[Android General] purespin:
I am glad that you got it replaced under warranty!

Anybody knows how long is the Honda warranty? 1 year?
[Android General] jersacct:
I think standard is 3 years - mine's past the 1 year mark already.

Also, I had tried it before with no luck, but I did successfully get an app (Waze) installed as a system app by copying it to /system/app (after remounting /system r/w) and chmod to 644. Waze showed up in the apps list, but wouldn't start because it was missing some libs in /data/app-lib. When I get some more time I'll try installing it on another device first, grabbing the stuff it installs in /data, then copy that all over.

Might be close! I am worried about the other checks the whitelist service is providing regarding when an app can use audio and/or display - hopefully that won't be a problem.
[Android General] purespin:
Wow, that's very good news! I have tried to copy other apps (Spotify) to /system/app but it never show up in the apps list.

Maybe I will give Waze a try when I get time.
[Android General] jersacct:
I think the chmod operation was key - I don't think I did that step last time I tried.

adb push com.my.apk /data/local/tmp
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /data/local/tmp/com.my.apk /system/
chmod 644 /system/com.my.apk
mount -o remount,ro /system
