Any of the other folks on the test version 4.4.8 (@workshop [MENTION=9423819]mrdjman[/MENTION] [MENTION=6801133]Ludeape[/MENTION] et al): are you able to disable to navigation directions in the speedometer instrument cluster? Toggling the switch and rebooting the headunit doesn't disable the directions for me while I'm using Waze..
[Android General] Ludeape:
I thought only civic supported waze app dirextions on the speedometer console? Not crv

Are you talking about in android auto?
[Android General] btonetbone:
No, I'm in a Civic. Using Waze as an app in the head unit, not Android Auto.
[Android General] Ludeape:
Ohhh ok i am in a crv ... sorry

Help Honda Civic Gen 10th

has anyone been like this yet

Software update

there was a problem reading the usb Device.Please Swich off the vehicle then restart to retry.
[Android General] workshop:
Yes - my bad - I has altered this whilst attempting to "fix" the "issues" in the previous release! All sorted.:o

So most issues now resolved - just two for me - neither of which may be fixable nor Honda Hack issues - but hopefully someone can assist?

1. Waze directions appear now in the instrument cluster and by in large all good, however when there is a roundabout direction for some reason the cluster display cannot interpret the turn correctly and shows "Turn by Turn waiting for Smartphone.

I think this is to do with Waze in the UK on Honda's! As if I use Waze via Android Auto rather than the above message on the cluster I just see blank! It's almost as though it can't deal with going around roundabouts on the left as we do in the UK!!!!

2. Waze volume - just wish somebody knew a way of increasing this (when playing through head unit and using Radio - DAB/FM rather than "Phone Apps"). It seems stuck on a fairly low volume and I have tried various 3rd party apps to "boost" without any luck. Anybody been able to sort this?

Great work as always and the "bugs" have all been "squashed" now since the last stable release from my perspective - but be good if I could get a solution for the two above to make my experience complete!!! :D
[Android General] codeage:
It has nothing to do with Waze. If Waze is not running in Android auto mode, it will not display anything in the instrument cluster. In fact, I capture the turn by turn directions from Waze and translate them to the instrument cluster. The instructions are quite complicated so if there’s any problem it must be my fault.
[Android General] workshop:
Here's a screenshot which may help...

It seems the instruction will not display if the distance is more than 1000 meters. I have not tested if this restriction is applied to feet too.
[Android General] codeage:
Sorry, its a bug in the current test version. I've fixed it in 4.4.9, you can download and install now.
[Android General] Ludeape:
this is only for Civic correct? NOT CRV.. just want to make sure

Question though.. Is there an incompatibility though why it would not work on CRV also?

It would be nice to have Waze show directions on the console on CRV also i think, as opposed to having to use Android Auto to get this feature.

thank you
[Android General] workshop:
It's worth noting it never changes though as you get closer and ONLY seems to affect roundabouts for me.
[Android General] codeage:
Currently it only supports Civic. If CRV has a LCD Display and the built-in Garmin or Android auto can display turn-by-turn directions in the instrument cluster, I think it can supported in future.
[Android General] workshop:
Here's a screen shot less than 1000 feet - appreciate it's only 50 foot less - but as I said, it stays like this until the next direction appears.

Yes CRV currently displays directions on the console if your using google maps or waze through Android Auto.. looks just like the civic screenshots..

[Android General] btonetbone:
It's not a perfect solution, but download this Volume Control Widget and slide everything to max. It helped me out a bit.

https://apkpure.com/volume-control-widget/com.svk.avolume
[Android General] LLStarks:
I'm considering a more scientific approach to figuring out why Play Services is a near-death sentence for the head unit. Anything I should I consider?

13.2.80 (000300-211705629) (13280000) armeabi-v7a nodpi should be compatible and I already have my Google account added to the car through the Settings menu (is that built-in or the Account Manager that I installed?).
[Android General] Ludeape:
i tried this also.. but the phone speaker volume only has a max of 5 on it.. so it doesnt do too much to help Waze volume :( ... at least not on the CRV.. maybe Civic will have different max phone speaker volume?
[Android General] workshop:
No, unfortunately no improvement. Still just as quiet.

[MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION] - latest test version with directions in cluster...roundabouts now seem to always show as turn left, regardless of how many exits. So you need to take the third exit on the roundabout but the cluster shows left.

What it never shows is any form of roundabout image in the cluster.

Also when you reach your destination, it still shows the last direction in the cluster rather than the end flag.

I’ve installed google play service, play store and YouTube successfully. I’ll release it soon.
[Android General] Ludeape:
nice surprise! Thank you :)

is performance impacted much?

Now if we were only

NOT

limited to old android 4.2.2 apps we would be all set.. but we can blame Honda for putting in a 6 year old Android OS for that :(
[Android General] LLStarks:
That's amazing. Chrome has been a game-changer too. With Play Services, that opens up a lot of options like Headunit Reloaded (for wireless Android Auto) and Pushbullet.
[Android General] domenictroilo:
I replaced the USB an have not had an issue since.
[Android General] workshop:
As per my last post, issues still persist. It seems to always use the TURN LEFT icon in the cluster now for all roundabouts.

This morning, the indicator got stuck on this and remained at turn left until I restarted the head unit.

It seems to also affect the built-in NAV (Garmin) as well.

Any ideas?
[Android General] bomiliox:
hello to everybody, im new here, im just wanna say thanks to codeage for everything you already done, and for everything you will do!
[Android General] LLStarks:
God, that's scary as hell. Just ran into the recovery loop after installing 4.4.9 and rebooting. Waited an hour and it booted up fine. It didn't look like wiping cache or factory reset actually do anything.

I don't like the idea of my car randomly bricking itself for 30 minutes at a time after a cold reboot. Did I press something by accident to get there? If this car ever hard-bricks, I think I'm ****ed. There's no OTA to capture. No firmware floating around to apply over adb. Nothing to do but go to the dealer and play dumb to save whatever hopes you still have of a fix under warranty.

I'm not blaming the new build whatsoever, but can I just force close Honda Hack instead of rebooting the next time I need to update?
[Android General] gemini0506:
Help me

Help me!
[Android General] LLStarks:
If you're stuck at the recovery or software update screens: Turn off the car, unplug anything connected to the USB ports, find a nice paper bag to hyperventilate in, wait 30 minutes, turn the car back on.

That's what I did and it worked.
[Android General] codeage:
It’s a problem of the factory boot loader. It has nothing to do with Honda Hack.
[Android General] codeage:
Have your ever seen the roundabout images when using Android auto?
[Android General] Ludeape:
I have a crv but i can check what image is shown with android auto for a roundabout if you need.

I have one by my house.
[Android General] LLStarks:
Thanks for the reassurance. That's something even the average Honda owner could encounter by accident like the HFT self-diag in the previous generation.
[Android General] gemini0506:
Thank !

I want to ask can use One Click Root HondaHack using for Honda CRV 2018 ?
[Android General] LLStarks:
No, you need to use the website.
[Android General] Quicksand Jesus:
Its a LOT faster if you get stuck on the recovery screen to just pull out the fuse. Does anyone happen to have a stock recovery image? Making changes without a backup is certainly scary.
[Android General] Ludeape:
Here are some roundabout images in my CRV when using android auto.
[Android General] LLStarks:
Won't I have re-init the radio with codes or something?

And no, I don't think there are any images floating around. The car is also a walking (driving?) GPL violation because the kernel and other FLOSS sources at the listed URL in the car settings are conveniently not available.

[Android General] Quicksand Jesus:
No, I just pull the fuse and go inside the car, press the power button to make sure its dead, then put the fuse back in and watch it boot.
[Android General] Saul_2:
Mine bricked by itself months before installing HondaHack. It was OK after rebooting (took about 30min)

No issues after installing HondaHack.

Can I get 4.4.9?
[Android General] distractedhero:
Honda Insight

Anyone can help me out and tell me how to get this to work on a 2019 insight?
[Android General] distractedhero:
2019 Honda models update

I asked earlier about disabling android restrictions on my 2019 Honda Insight.

So I played with the buttons some more, the combo to access the menu for 2019 Honda models is home+ |<< + power, you then need to hold home for 10 seconds after going to the detail Information Settings menu.

The special function setting only shows the SoC error check setting.

Maybe using a laptop will be the only way we can continue using this ?
[Android General] LLStarks:
Laptop requires developer options and USB debugging. I'd expect that to still be locked down on new vehicles like the 2019 Insight.

If you can't unlock that or the browser, you may be SOL.
[Android General] distractedhero:
Surpringly developer options is easy to access, no pass required.. just the 7 taps. I enabled usb debugging as well.

Disabling the restrictions is the only thing missing in the special functions setting .
[Android General] LLStarks:
I guess the next thing is to figure out is whether your kernel is vulnerable and which root method is appropriate to use.

I wouldn't wing it with the laptop method, but it may just work.
[Android General] inningsdefeat500:
I email codeage but anyone had issues where it asking to buy pro version even thouhgt u put the auth at the begining

Also, It shows apps are installing from USB but they dont show up, however the online ones are OK?
[Android General] workshop:
Ok - so I think I have an understanding of how the instrument cluster is interpretting for me...

Most directions work ok.

However, roundabout directions in Waze can provide a couple of different formats as shown below. When the icon on the right is shown by Waze, the cluster cannot interpret it correctly and therefeore displays the LAST shown direction the cluster displayed (for example a normal turn left etc). Each time that icon is shown by Waze the cluster always reverts to whatever the previous direction was!

If the icon on the LEFT is shown by Waze then the cluster can interpret it ok - as it sees it more as a turn right (or turn left).

The same ALSO happens when you get to your destination. Within Waze on the HU the symbol is a circle with a chequered flag in it, but again the cluster CANNOT interpret that and does the same as the roundabout problem and displays the last shown direction forever and you have to cancel navigation to stop it else it seems to start off the next journey the same!

Hope this helps to troubleshoot the issue.

[Android General] workshop:
Sorry to report no obvious improvement. Seems to be the same issues. :(
[Android General] codeage:
1. Does roundabout display when the

Enter roundabout and exit at number n

instruction is given?

2. Does the last instruction (

destination

) display correctly?
[Android General] workshop:
1. Roundabout NEVER displays in the Instrument Cluster - ONLY on the Waze screen on the Head Unit.

2. The last instruction, which is displayed in place of the roundabout instruction on the cluster is always the last instruction so it is CORRECT in terms of its the last used instruction but WRONG in that if you need to take the third exit (which in the UK is traditionally towards the right) but your previous turn before the roundabout approach then the cluster will show a TURN LEFT icon.

Let me try and explain in steps:

1. Going down a road and I need to turn left at the end (normal left turn at a junction)

Waze will show TURN LEFT ARROW and cluster will show TURN LEFT ARROW

All good so far!

2. Roundabout approaching at which I will need to take the third exit (remember in the UK we drive on the left and so the third exit will be somewhere to the right)

Waze shows a roundabout icon with the number 3 in the middle (correct) but the cluster shows the same TURN LEFT ARROW from the previous instruction. If I was to follow the cluster direction I would be taking the FIRST exit from the roundabout.

3. Carrying on my journey and now I have a RIGHT turn at a normal junction ahead

Waze shows TURN RIGHT arrow, cluster shows TURN RIGHT ARROW

All good again.

4. Now go straight on for 1 mile

Waze shows Straight ON, Cluster shows STRAIGHT ON

Still all good!

5. Now another RIGHT TURN

Waze shows RIGHT TURN ARROW, cluster shows RIGHT TURN ARROW

6. Now a roundabout - this time first exit (in the UK this is effectively a turn to the left)

Waze shows roundabout icon with 1 in the middle, cluster shows RIGHT TURN ARROW again (as this was the last direction it displayed).

7. Arrive at destination

Waze shows circle with black and white "flag" squares, Cluster still dhows TURN RIGHT

Cut engine

Start engine - three hours later

Waze has closed down and Home menu of Head Unit or Radio etc is displayed. Cluster still shows TURN RIGHT!!!!!!

Hope this helps? I can try and video it is I can, but may be a bit tricky!!!!

Cheers

[MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION], in regards to the new version, I am guessing the cluster directions wont work on 2016 civics, am i right?
[Android General] Ludeape:
I just noticed that waze is now showing the directions on my cluster as well on my CRV.

I will test this out later today.

UPDATE:

Ok here are issues I observed.

1. Left turn arrow showed instead of proper roundabout arrow. Screenshots attached.

2. Sometimes cluster showed full right/left turn for highway exits instead of just the the slight right/left arrow which was showing in waze.

3. When reached destination cluster still showed last turn arrow.

When I exited waze the last turn arrow did go away so nothing got stuck on the screen which is good.

I am on 4.4.8 version.
[Android General] mrdjman:
Not sure I understand the question. I can turn waze off on the headunit...but not sure how you mean in the instrument cluster. I have an Si, so, no Nav, but that shouldn't matter. I also notice that iOS 12 is out, but the waze app and the google maps app don't show up in CarPlay choices...yet...
[Android General] codeage:
How do you make it display on CRV? Is some special operations needed?

Please update to 4.4.10 to see if your issues have been fixed. (Just download from the test release page).
[Android General] codeage:
Thanks a lot for the detailed information!
[Android General] codeage:
It should work.
[Android General] LLStarks:
Turn-by-turn in the dashboard for Waze and Maps have always been working for my 2018 CR-V.

That being said, I do have one of those rare American-style roundabouts in my area and can test how well it's handled when I have a chance.
[Android General] maydavid2997:
Woo It's working thank you so much.
[Android General] codeage:
Did you mean Android auto? We are not talking about Android auto here. It's a function of Honda Hack.
[Android General] OldAmber:
Yeah, you can factory reset to go back to stock. The root is temporary anyway so if you want to, you can just uninstall the apps and restore the whitelist.
[Android General] SanJoseCA:
Thank you.

Couple of more to follow :

1) What does adb shell '/data/local/tmp/dcow /data/local/tmp/run-as /system/bin/run-as' this command in root.sh do?

Does it modify system partition? What does dirty cow do to existing run-as in system/bin?

2) nefarious.sh will modify system partition to root permanently. So if I skip that step, I should have temporary root shell, where I can "pm install" things with good whitelist xml. Correct ?

Thanks again..
[Android General] alexdemonumber3:
To add to an earlier post - any insights as to why GPS seems to have trouble locking?
[Android General] SanJoseCA:
Replying to myself LOL..

Went through Dirty Cow code. Seems it will write to the system partition. It's inevitable due to the nature of exploit, I suppose..

UPDATED :)

Tried to install Sygic GPS Navigation on my phone ..... adb to that, and I see it creates /sdcard/Android/data/com.sygic.aura/files and here are 3 folders: Android, Res and Maps...

Pulled all that to my laptop. Then uninstall Sygic on HU and then adb push the saved /sdcard/Android/data/com.sygic.aura/files .. and then install the Sygic apk again (I install version 17.2.2) voila..... it works .. at first load it downlods maps again, but ok.. No gps locking problem.. works like a charm

The only thing i want to fix is: everytime Sygic gives instructions it cut off audio and and the source is changed and do not revert....... Any suggestions for that ???
[Android General] THORMUNZ:
i seem to do the process pretty well i hit, but when i run nefarious.sh i'm not sure how to know if it did the job. First, It blinks and then reboots and someone here mentioned that the process has to be started all over if that happens. I'm also trying to use the install bat after reboot by dragging super user apk onto it and it runs, but it doesn't install it gives me a failure at the end, so what am i suppose to be looking for?
[Android General] SergeiMedvedev:
Most likely you are missing one of two things that is needed:

1) you need JDK (I'm using 8)

and

2) you need the ADK/NDK, as it uses the aadb tools.

I had similar issues on a Mac (didn't get it to work on Windows), so what I ended up doing is modifying the whitelist manually (the install.bat/sh should generate a new whitelist based on the old one, if you copy it into your directory), then using adb install. That worked. Also, I had to reboot my head unit for this to work, as seems like the whitelist

--------------------

On a separate topic, has anyone that installed Here Maps noticed that it is sideways? My screen rotated 90 degrees to portrait mode. I got an app that disables rotation, but that's a little inconvenient.

The audio guidiance ... you get that to work without stopping radio Or other audio sources ??
[Android General] alexdemonumber3:
anyone aware of a way to automatically bluetooth tether an iPhone to the head unit automatically? if only being used for waze, bluetooth tethering should be barely fast enough data speeds. my wife hates having to manually enable wifi hotspot on her iphone every time she gets in.

edit: so I like sygic a lot, and i think that may just become my default maps app. Would it be possible to permanently move the apk and app data(containing my login info) to the system so it'll stay there regardless of if i ever have to reset the unit? Apologies for any dumb questions, been out of the game for a longgggg time.

[Android General] SergeiMedvedev:
So I got Sygic installed (and looks like it's working), however one thing I can't figure out is the storage space.

Does anyone else get only shy of a gig? I have 0.9GB of total storage (Android settings report 2.3GB), but Sygic only sees the 0.9GB. Canada's maps are a good 600MB, and that fills up my storage, leaving me with only 300MB for select USA Maps.

I also can't seem to change the storage device, so I dont think that the HU likes to allow access to a USB device as an SD card of sorts. I did read that the Android HU has a SD card on the back for it - Honda uses it as map storage for official maps, it's not populated on trims below Touring.

Ideas about the 0.9GB total accessable app storage?

Thanks!
