Thanks Codeage! After messing around for hours, I was searching through the forum I saw the post from spencer and realized I didn't have the JDK installed, I had java for safari which did not help. #noob
[Android General] drpepper4lf:
So far I have Torque, Netflix, New Pipe (Youtube), ES File Explorer, MX Player.

Anyone have any cool apps I should get?
[Android General] melsawah:
Lspeed, root master pro (to accelerate applications), romtoolbox, root essentials

I’m worried that we all ventured into that without a recovery partition (twrp, or cmw)

Mine bricked while I was copying waze to /system/apps and I couldn’t reload the recovery partition!!

Thank goodness I am in warranty and they will change it tomorrow, I will try to see if I can make a nandroid and compile a twrp recovery.
[Android General] drpepper4lf:
Yeah, it is really sketchy that we are just blowing apps (and other things) into our radios without recovery... I am also in warranty so thats good news they will change it out! :) What did you tell them was wrong with it?
[Android General] melsawah:
it rebooted to a black screen [emoji848][emoji56][emoji56]?
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
Get rid of ES Explorer and use X-Plore. Waaaayy better.
[Android General] Greg530:
So far I only managed to get Waze installed.

There are two more apps that I’d really like to have, but no success:

-INRIX traffic

-Google Maps (this can give me offline nav)

I’m running into signature obtaining errors and unfortunately my android craft ends there...

Has anyone managed to get the above two apps installed and if so what’s the trick?
[Android General] rosenkrantz:
For offline navi the absolute best option is Sygic GPS navigation ... i used it for 3 month now in 2017 Civic .. flawless
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
Did you install it using this method? I’ve been trying to get it on my HU but it won’t connect to download maps.
[Android General] badabing2003:
For static, Install it on your phone, copy the folder to HU

Google maps can be installed, but maps cannot be downloaded without gapps.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
Yea I have an iPhone so I can’t download it that way. Any way you could upload those files? Really want to try it out since I’m thinking of replacing the HU with either an Alpine or an Android aftermarket unit.

I already have Waze/Google Maps installed. Those were the first 2 apps I put on my HU.
[Android General] rosenkrantz:
No... i installled it manually .. following the steps in the first script posted here many months ago .. manually update of whitelist and then pm install .. all via adb

---------- Post added at 05:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 AM ----------

And... use the Sygic GPS nav. Not the car navi ...
[Android General] melsawah:
Change

So it appears that we have an LG tablet attached to an electronic/electric unit as you can see in the picture here are the unit info

Mine is getting replaced, I will see if it’s that the problem, I hope with that we can get a twrp going [emoji16][emoji851]

There is a video online for the removal of ppl are interested https://youtu.be/DuYw5A_r0Wk

Update://

The Screen assy does not contain the system, it's just a screen.... so tomorrow i'm back at the dealer for the whole HU change :rolleyes:
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
I found an old Moto Razr and was able to download Sygic and maps of my state. I saved the apk and map files to and SD card, installed Sygic, pushed the map files, and was able to get offline nav on my Civic. Super stoked! Gonna test it out and if I like it, I’ll go with an aftermarket Android HU. If not, I’ll go with an Alpine/Pioneer unit w/ integrated nav.
[Android General] badabing2003:
Cool, glad you managed.

Although I haven't tried head unit reloaded, I hear lots of good things about it and the dev is great.

You might want to look into that if you are thinking of after market HU

[Android General] melsawah:
There is also the Phoenix HU, https://phoenixandroidradios.com/collections/honda
[Android General] badabing2003:
Thanks, good to know.

Just pay attention to this note from the FAQ

9. Do Android radios support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay?

Not at the moment. However, Android radios support MirrorLink. You can connect iPhone or Android smartphones, and display their screen on the radio. With Android phones, you can also control your phone through the touchscreen of the radio.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
The only time I’ve used CarPlay is to use Maps so my phone wouldn’t die. Other than that it’s pretty useless, since I can stream music over BT. However with the Phoenix HU you can buy a dongle so CarPlay works if you really want it.

Hi!

Which version of mxplayer did u install? The latest one doesn't have sound when I played videos. Thank you

[Android General] melsawah:
hey guys, just to update you, managed to install gapps, and signed into google account and gplaystore

I tried to install an app, had 110 error.

I will see that on the we as I will be traveling this week and the next.

Later I will post how I did it
[Android General] melsawah:
I didn’t flash gapps, I unzipped them into a folder, used android file manager to put it on the SD card and then with root browser i copies them into each location on the respective folders, got the idea from

https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/android-rpi/xb2fwTQbUYw

And I downloaded gapps for 4.2.2 from:

As anyone been able to use Voice Navigation Audio for GPS apps like Sygic, TomTom, Waze, Google Maps, etc, without switching to Audio Apps source?

So far nothing has worked on my HU, if some audio comes from the app it switches the source to audio app and it doesn't return to previous source.
[Android General] drpepper4lf:
I actually uninstalled mxplayer and have VLC player for Android (ARM7) 2.5.1

Works flawless! I can even FTP into my computer :)
[Android General] emy_77:
Hi drpepper4lf,

Which one is version ARM7? I installed arm version & no video comes out, just audio. I just want a video app which has resume function, because everytime I put the car in reverse, the built in video app started from the beginning. :) Tq
[Android General] rosenkrantz:
Hi again

Did anyone find out how to install Tomtom Go ?

I can install, but it allways stop with the error: Cant connect to Tomtom
[Android General] drpepper4lf:
I actually ran into the same problem, it only happens with a few of my movies. I'm still trying to figure out why. My guess is codec issues with it. Ill let you know when I figure it out!

My work around right now, that seems to be working for 95% of my movies is using X-Plor or Es File Explorer and playing the video via the stock video player.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
That app won’t work. Install Sygic. You can download maps of your area for offline use. I’ve been using it for a couple weeks, loving it! Was originally gonna swap the HU out for an aftermarket one that has nav, but since Sygic is working I’ll keep the stock HU and put a sub in the car.
[Android General] rosenkrantz:
Thank you for the answer ... i am very happy about Sygic too, works flawless .. but i have a 5 year subscription for Tomtom and would love to get it up on the HU ... but yes I vote for Sygic too :)
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
I read somewhere that TomTom won’t work. I was trying to get it to work but had no luck.

hi, how did you install lspeed?

I installed it correctly but I get the message that the system does not have root :(
[Android General] basf:
I managed to install apps into the CR-V 2017 but no root access/SuperSU.
[Android General] riccardone1:
hi, can you take a step by step guide how did you do it? thanks
[Android General] melsawah:
Once you installed supsersu u have root

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 AM ----------

Not for the moment , i soft bricked my second unit.... raaaaaah

---------- Post added at 08:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------

Not at the moment I bricked my second HU trying to move waze to system/app AGAIN.... f***
[Android General] riccardone1:
I installed supersu but I do not have root permissions. Why this?
[Android General] basf:
Root from PC,

From you PC screen it should tell something.
[Android General] riccardone1:
the root was successful but the unit is not rotated. I install the apps regularly...
[Android General] codeage:
No, SuperSU is not root, it's a root manager.
[Android General] riccardone1:
yes i know, i did the root procedure correctly
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
Why are you trying to install Waze in /system/app?
[Android General] melsawah:
It’s a stupid idea I had so when I reset the sys waze is already there.

Anyway, now back to the dealer.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
How did you try think install it? Titanium Backup is what I used back in the day when I would ROM.
[Android General] melsawah:
Tib but it gets interrupted alone and the HU reboots

Thé worst is I lost the usb connection, the HU went back to being HOST, so I cannot even ask someone for /system
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
Maybe try ADB?

[Android General] melsawah:
my problem now is getting the HU out of the boot loop...
[Android General] codeage:
I have written an installer app which can be installed as system app. After installed this app you can reset the HU to factory settings safely. I will post it here later.
[Android General] melsawah:
but how do you install it without access to the HU?

i cannot get into recovery mode (power+vol dwn) does not seem to work, if you can make it in a way that i install it on a usb key, and it flashes the HU upon a connection that would be perfect, you would be my saviour :)

---------- Post added at 05:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

i saw this line in build.prop

#USB-A OTG mode

persist.sys.usb1_mode=host

that's where my problem is, do you think there is a way to change that? please help :)
[Android General] codeage:
Of course you should install the installer before bricked the HU. [emoji23]
[Android General] melsawah:
:rolleyes::crying::crying::crying:

I totally agree, do you have any idea how i can connect to the head unit now? it seems to be stuck in a bootloop, just before the logo H

i sent you a PM
[Android General] codeage:
Sorry, I have no idea. I can provide some help if you can establish an adb connection to the head unit.
[Android General] riccardone1:
try to disconnect the car battery
[Android General] melsawah:

[Android General] yuprules:
How did you install apps without root access???
[Android General] basf:
I got root only in ADB shell, then install apps. But not the root in Android with SuperSu.
[Android General] riccardone1:
The same for me. I solved by redoing the root procedure with the last root package
[Android General] dreadlk:
Hi guys, I have been reading some of this for weeks but have not gone through all 50+ pages. I am living in the Caribbean and the 2018 CR-V's that I will be getting in 4 weeks does not have an option for Garmin maps. Now I know Garmin kind of sucks but they do have detailed maps that I can buy locally that work well on the standalone Garmin units. Coming from America it's pretty hard to navigate over here and the Job sometimes requires it.

Is it possible to add the Garmin App to a rooted CR-V head unit and can I load the maps? People say the GPS is operational in all the Trim levels, I am not sure but I would think that it would be. Has anyone ever confirmed that?

Thanks for any help.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
If the vehicle has a gps antenna (my ‘17 Civic has it but does not have nav), I would use Sygic. It’s as close to integrated gps as you can get. You can download maps for your area and use it without tethering data. If you want live traffic updates, you’ll have to have data. I’ve been using Sygic for a couple weeks now (I live in CA) and have been very happy with it thus far.
[Android General] dreadlk:
Thanks for the reply but the problem is that Garmin is the only company that has come down here and mapped every street and business and home address.
[Android General] simon_lefisch:
They actually have quite a few maps. Have you checked it out? It’s free. Where in the Caribbean are you?
[Android General] dreadlk:
I am in Jamaica for the next 3 years. I see the maps you suggested have it listed but, I suspect like all the other maps I have tried it will just show major street names and have no idea which streets are one way or how to locate a business address. I heard Garmin spent millions down here mapping the place and now offer something called JamNav map package for about $100.

Assuming the passcord is still 4 clicks, have you already tried all the 24 possibilities? Please keep in mind, each time you entered an invalid passcord, you must press back to quit this window and reopen it to try the next combination or else it will not work even if you enter the correct passcord.

1-2-3-4 / 1-2-4-3 / 1-3-4-2 / 1-4-3-2 / 1-3-2-4 AND the one in tutorial 1-4-2-3

Sorry for my bad english ;)

I have install Waze, Sygic and other app on my civic 2017 Ex US (Canada) and all is ok and was easy with 1 clic script. But now, my internet connection is only possible with Wifi: the Bluetooth connection is ok for all my call, for Siri ( i have iPhone 8 ) for the message text, music all is ok but the internet connection now is dead with Bluetooth : Honda connect and all other app is only possible only on wifi. I don t Know no what is the probleme, i have all doing... I have SuperUser on the first installation and i have deinstall first: do you think it s possible it s that? The Honda Permission dont lautch too...

[Android General] crazyxzer0:
Is this the method you used to get in? I noticed the nefarious script doesn't account for navigation app changes to the parameters.
[Android General] vraj1470:
Hey [MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION], running Nefarious.sh I actually get stuck in a bootlop and have to factory reset. Pretty sure it's from that last command, do you think it's because of a difference in build numbers?
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
Did that root-log.txt show anything?
[Android General] vraj1470:
Showed nothing, I actually just ran the commands manually and I get stuck in a bootloop at

mount -o remount,rw /system
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
There is no confirmation that the instructions [MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION] posted works yet. Hopefully we can continue to test to figure it out! :)

Isn't that line 4? Line 16 is ro not rw.
[Android General] codeage:
Yes, at first I tried to execute the commands manually and the head unit restarted automatically immediately after the first command (mount -o remount,rw /system). Then I tried to execute the script directly as a batch and succeeded. I think maybe the system has a built-in protection mechanism?
[Android General] codeage:
Yes, after executing run-as, I used nefarious script to get the permanent root. It is the original version from [MENTION=3242718]jersacct[/MENTION] and I didn't change anything. What dos "account for navigation app changes" mean?
[Android General] vraj1470:
Maybe, I was running into this problem earlier as well, but I get the issue with and without the script. It might be because of the difference in build numbers? Also by account for navigation he means you have to change

<audioStreamType>null</audioStreamType>

to

<audioStreamType>STREAM_ADA_GUIDE</audioStreamType>

so it can be run with apps like spotify.
[Android General] codeage:
I tried about 3 times and succeeded at last. The head unit did not reboot automatically at that moment. Maybe the protection mechanism dit not work in time while running commands as a batch ? Just a guess.

BTW, what does "run with" mean? I can run navigation apps in the front with music apps in the background.

Sorry for my poor English.
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
It allows audio from Navigation app while music is playing without conflict or stopping it. :)
[Android General] sheryip:
What drivers do i need? I'm not sure if my homemade cable is bad or i need drivers. I have two device that needs drivers when connected to the head unit. MTP and C something.
[Android General] OldAmber:
You shouldn't need anything besides ADB

and [MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION], it allows you to use an app like Waze with Spotify without any interference. I believe it will even mute the Spotify when the directions come up but I'm not positive about that.

I will try the script again, but maybe just add a warning because I know there are a few of us on the civicx forums are having the same issue. Also my build number is higher than your's I was thinking that may be the problem.
[Android General] sheryip:
hmmm my cable must be bad then. i will check the wiring again.

Thanks!
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
What build number is yours?

I noticed the nefarious.sh has a chmod 6777 in there. I believe it should be chmod 777 not 6777. Either way, it boot loops my headunit as well.

Build F191.02
[Android General] OldAmber:
I'm on Build F186.67. And the nefarious.sh is directly from the pilot root method so I don't think that's the issue
[Android General] levi-ch:
so the boot loops issue is caused by authority of the nefarious.sh?by the way,contect adb to head unit should only use 1.5A USB Interface?
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
The bootloop is when the system is attempted to be mounted with rw. Not sure what to do with that.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

If the passcord is still 4 clicks, but REPEATABLE, that is 256 possibilities. From 1111, 1112, 1113, 1114, 1121, 1122, 1123...... to 4441, 4442, 4443, 4444.

Could anyone have time to try this out?

PS

If that’s still not works, I guess the passcord might has upgraded to 6 clicks(?) and if repeatable, that will be 4096 possibilities.:eek:
[Android General] SonyUSA:
It works for me in my 2018 North America Civic EX Hatch, before tapping repeatedly to get the code input, make sure you are scrolled completely down. Then carefully press it the right amount of times to get the "password" request. Then, IGNORE the very first selection which is halfway cut off, that does not count. The one under it is #1, so then do 1, 4, 2, 3 slowly and it will say "you are now a develeoper!" or something. Record and put on youtube if you fail so we can tell you how you are doing it wrong ;)
