Honda Jazz 2017 USB role

Hi all,

everyone Know how to get the USB role Host to Device from Head Unit on Honda Jazz Elegance with 4.04 version of Android, it's an EU car?

I'm be able to arrive into all hidden menu but not in the last (when was describe hold the 'menu' button hear two beep... in this case not happen anything)

Thank you so much
[Android General] riccardone1:
Today the screen with software update appeared and I can not restart the connect. I did a reboot, wipe cache partition, wipe factory reset but it did not work. How can I solve?

Help me! Thank you
[Android General] shalafix:
I see that more and more people have problem with 'software update' screen after some time of using honda hack,

can anyone tell how he fix it? or what he done that it happened?

I'm a bit scared now...
[Android General] Beejay002:
It must be automatically reseted when you select "wipe data/reset factory" and wait for the Headunit reset on it self it may take a minute for reboot.. Ive done that already when my Civic2017 got bricked and reset it via ADB program and help my friends also with that selection and 100% work and the headunit comeback to factory reset.. and now my headunit has been rooted.. and no problem at all.. with 7apps installed.

[Android General] jonlow:
That’s not the case. After reboot it goes back to the software update page again. No matter which selection chosen.
[Android General] riccardone1:
have you solved?
[Android General] basf:
Left it like that half an hour. Or take the fuse out to force reboot
[Android General] Beejay002:
Try using ADB program on your laptop.. The ADB program you can reboot it there. Still when you select "wipe data/factory reset" its automatically reboot it and it should be back on Headunit program apps.
[Android General] riccardone1:
ok i solved, thanks
[Android General] jonlow:
When I Wipe Factory settings, it brings me back to Software Update Page, and when I reboot it, it also brings me back to the software update page. Infinite loop.

I've used a mac to root it previously.

I couldn't get the laptop to connect to the HU. When I type in ADB devices , it shows no devices. ;(
[Android General] riccardone1:
The same thing happened to me, I solved by clicking on "apply update from ADB" e

I turned off the car for an hour. On restart everything is ok
[Android General] jonlow:
i reckon that screen is common, but from what i read in this forum, everyone manage to reboot up the HU after leaving it for 30 minutes or so. Mine, just can't. I've got this issue a couple of days now. I've driven my car, and the HU auto reboot after awhile, but always always go back to the same Software Update page.

I found this link : http://www.crvownersclub.com/forums...ware-update-screen.html#/topics/137762?page=2

it's a honda crv, but similar case.
[Android General] kruuth:
Not to sound like a broken record, but has anyone fixed the issue with slow access to the USB? I'm using a high speed SD card plugged into a reader, and when I try to open an mp3 player, any mp3 player, it'll open but only show the first few folders, like ones starting with A and B. I'll quit, then restart and it'll show A-D, quit and restart again, and it'll show A-P, etc.

Is there a way to fix this somehow?
[Android General] Beejay002:
Guys Before you make root on your Headunit make sure you change it Host to Device if you are trying with ADB programs.. (no.1)and make sure you enabled and never forget USB Debugging after you become developers mode..

So that if you incounter problems like Bricked and Hangging due to unnecessary cache data easily you can factory reset it without worry with ADB. Believe me i fix my Civic2017 Bricked Headunit and help my friend here in Philippines because i read most of this forum and ask some senior member here Like Codeage..

Now my headunit are working like new with apps.. i install and uninstall anytime i want and reboot it.

[/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH]
[Android General] Beejay002:
Much better if you use windows... First you must change Host to Device the Headunit after Put a USB type A to A.. the install headunit driver after you detect on Device Manager Setting on Windows.. after you install it now run ADB program.. then type "adb devices" press Enter wait until it detect.. then type " adb reboot recovery" the wait for the Headunit from reboot and wait until you see software update on the headunit the select the "wipe data/factory reset" then automatically your headunit will reboot and wait again patience.. the boom b your Headunit back to life again.

First thing shoulb be... you must enabled USB DEBUGGING after you become developers mode.. so that you can fix it by your self with adb.. 2nd change Host to Device.View attachment 4433648

Dude,

I know you are trying to help, but I've been saying that the HU isn't responding to how you think it was. I've said repeatedly that it does not boot up beyond Software Updates. I don't get to go in to change the Host to Device now. Nor any of those screens I have to enable me to connect to ADB. Believe me, I would want my laptop to be able to connect via ADB services.

I don't think there is any difference rooting from a mac than a PC albeit codeage has made the GUI version for the PC. Essentially the essence of the rooting is the same.

I've done all the steps you so kindly reminded us all to do when I first rooted and enable these services. It worked great when it last until one day it just didn't wanna start anymore. I guess I am the unlucky one that the unit seems to behave differently from the rest.

Thanks for trying.
[Android General] n9yty:
This is exciting news, I was thinking of replacing the headunit in my new 2018 Civic Hatchback EX with one of those Android models, like the Phoenix, because it seems it would add all these features, but if the stock one can be made to work...

But after trying to read most of this thread, I'm not sure if the 2018 Civic Hatchback EX can be modified using this, it seems there were changes that prevent it?

And will the WiFi method [MENTION=495426]codeage[/MENTION] is working on handle it?

Wow, great stuff here! I mostly would like video-in-motion for the kids, and lockout bypass. Being able to cast my phone to the unit would be AWESOME but I think not something to expect to be working... I use Android Auto, but this would open in quite a few more things.

Upgraded from a 2002 Civic Sedan with a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX headunit, so in some ways this is a step backward in the infotainment area... :(
[Android General] kruuth:
Do you see the unlocker? I bought an unlocker that way but I don't see it and whenever I try it tells me that the unlocker is broken.
[Android General] nathanzachary:
If you bought it via the PowerAmp site (and not Google Play), you should have the license. Then you just need to install the trial via APK, and you can unlock it using the registration option in the settings menu. You will need the Google Account Services APK as well, and an active internet connection.

Hope that helps.
[Android General] kruuth:
After an uninstall and a reinstall that took care of it. Thanks. Question though....does it not show all your music folders? It seems like it takes the head unit a long time to read my files.
[Android General] nathanzachary:
Yes, it takes quite some time. I put my music (~100k Ogg Vorbis tracks) on a USB flash drive, and the initial scan took probably around 20 minutes. Thereafter, though, it doesn't have to rescan and is at least usable.

Cheers,

Nathan Zachary
[Android General] rjschof:
Hey guys, if you all have a problem it would be super helpful for newbies and others who may want to help you to post pictures and/or videos of the issue. I am planning on rooting my 2016 Civic EX in the near future, so I would like to see more information about issues I may have.
[Android General] axh:
Hey, I have exactly the same problem as described above on new HR-V (European version).

I managed to turn developer mode and usb debugging on, but had no luck finding USB device switch. When I try steps posted here, I'm able to open first and second hidden menu, but when I press and hold Home to access last menu, nothing happens (no beeps or hidden menus, even if I hold it for over a minute)... did anyone managed to figure this out?
[Android General] dreadlk:
Whats happened to Codeage, has he been abducted by Aliens ?
[Android General] kwalsh24:
Partial success... Managed to get Google play services installed, able to sign into my Google account & able to open Google play, Google play music. Only problem I'm getting now is a rh-01 error with playstore...

This radio tho... Is pretty damn slow so it may not be capable of running Google play music efficiently lol

Update... Google play music works. However still haven't been able to fix the error with Google play, not a huge deal I can always download apk files and install.
[Android General] guites9:
Are you having any sound issues with poweramp? The audio seems to be fluctuating in volume, no matter how loud it is. It seems to be going in and out, almost like the audio is being muffled.
[Android General] rjschof:
Has anyone figured out if there is a way to get the head unit to get to the recovery menu? The one where you can wipe the cache and do the factory reset/wipe. On most Android tablets/phones there is a button combination you can press.

The reason why I am asking is because for some reason the headunit seems to just be screwed up. I finally got my USB A-A cable today and I enabled USB debugging, changed the mode from host to device, and at that point, the screen started blinking. So I reset the thing, and now every time I start it up I get just a blank screen. No feedback from the buttons -- I can't even press the three-button combo that takes you to the diagnostic menu. The only things that work are the rear camera and LaneWatch (even with the guidelines, which I think is kind of strange). I would like to just factory reset the thing and try again.

I tried removing the fuse and then turning it back on, but it just does the same thing every single time. I am about to take the thing to the dealership, but I really did not want to have to do that.

crv 2018

Does it work on Honda CR-V 2018 with Android 4.2.2?
[Android General] dreadlk:
Yes if you can get in with the normal password.

If not you have to wait until codeage releases the version that bypasses the password and does the install via the built in browser. If your unit has no built in browser you might be in problems until another work around is found, or the password for the newer models is found.
[Android General] Toilet Paper:
I have the same car. I am in Canada.

I didn't try it as I don't have a USB Type A to Type A cable. But the dev mode passcode works, if you wonder. So that is a good sign.

I don't think they are any changes in the Civic 2016 and 2017 models to be honest. As for the 2018 Sedan model, all I saw at the dealership is they started to cut down on the interior quality. The arm rest lid doesn't grip anymore, and doesn't smoothly open. It it just loose, and the silver trimming lines on top of the fans are now glossy plastic. I don't know what else has been cut from just quickly sitting down in one at the dealership, before every sales person in the dealership jumps on me.

I am also concerned about problems. Would be nice to have a compilation of reported (current) issues on the main thread post.

My concern is the steering wheel controls. Will it cause a conflict between app control and the car navigation system (switch to FM radio, bluetooth, etc.), change display mode on the front tachometer display, etc.

Some people says that it does't work, other says it does. Confusing. Clarification would be really nice.
[Android General] matrism:
Hi. Just wondering does using hondahack will disable android auto? For me it just doesnt work anymore.. hondahack works fine tho..
[Android General] basf:
Go back to set the device to host mode. Choose the right USB port.
[Android General] kwalsh24:
Anyone else have their unit get stuck at the Honda logo after the latest Honda hack apk? My unit is currently at this state. It was fine in Friday when I was updating everything to get Google play services working, at that time I also updated Honda hack at the very end. Yesterday the unit wouldn't boot past the Honda logo so I pulled the radio fuse over night and today same result.

Any idea how to unbrick my softbricked unit?

My laptop won't detect the device in adb... I get a blank desktop screen on the radio and that is it. Ugh wish Honda made it easy to get into the system recovery grr.
[Android General] matrism:
Ahaaaaa.. forgot bout reset the host mode.. thanks a lot!
[Android General] kruuth:
I had this happen. Turn off the car completely. Let the unit completely shut off and then restart. After that the first run takes a little longer, but after that all is well.
[Android General] Badexample01:
Did try the rooting process on the Civic SI 2017. Don't work at all. Disappointed. I will probably end up buying an aftermarket. This OEM head unit is just garbage.
[Android General] kwalsh24:
Tried that a few times now with no luck. Sigh. May take the radio out and see if there's a hidden reset button someplace
[Android General] justinjsp:
I absolutely cannot get aBD to work in either VMWARe or in terminal. I mean, I can get ABD to work, but I cannot get it to recognize the HU. I have a macbook pro with the usb-c ports. I have a usb-usb cable and connected with the usb-c to regular usb adapter, but nothing. Any thoughts?

I know I'm in Windows world...but I find usbc is finicky with some things vs USB1\2\3 traditional ports. You may have to track down a older laptop with traditional usb ports to get it to work. I ended up using USB 2.0 port on my laptop as my 3.0 was picky inside windows 10

Hi !

I found one problem - not every application can by installed.

I thing that is the problem with apks signatures. Mayby GetAdroidSig.jar extrct only first key (if is more then one)?

Example of non working app is Youtobe (from apkmirror verion 12.23.60 - 1223602300 and 1223602310 - both version has this same signature key - maybe it is only 1st part? )

Anybody knows solutions or have same problem?

Youtube won't work without play services, try this out instead. https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe
[Android General] carterson:
If you have installed any android smartphone driver, try to uninstall it. Then plug usb cable to the head unit (or any android phone if you have one). Go to device manager and see if you pc detect it. If it is there, right click on it, choose properties, then uninstall driver.

Restart pc and do the adb installation again. Im at work right now, the instruction might not be exact.
[Android General] Kurian8:
Tanks for advice. NewPipe works fine. ;)

But the problem still need a solution. Some applications can't by installed. I was trying with older version YT (10.x) and installation was successful (installed but not working due missing play service) . Other example is weather underground.
[Android General] kjake48:
Thanks for this! I got Waze installed on a 2017 CR-V. The permanent root script freezes my HU on the remount, but if I do a manual install (pm install) that works. Waze did insist on rotating on my screen though, so I just installed a rotation locker and it's fine!

The HU in the 2017 CR-V is a little different in mine at least - I don't have a Menu button on the face of it, so it is the Phone button instead... the rest of the instructions are spot-on.
[Android General] shihkster1015:
I wonder if this has happened to anyone.

I've successfully edited the Whitelist-1.0.xml document and after i send adb reboot, my headunit will restart messed up. I'll have no climate control, no backup camera, no audio, no phone and no beeping. Then the next time the unit powers up, everything is back to normal.

I tried again with restoring the original XML document and the same thing happens!

And i'm still unable to install any APK files.

I've also tried nefarious. That resulted in a bootloop.
[Android General] codeage:
There's no need to reboot after modifying the whitelist. Besides, never use adb reboot to restart the head unit because it always causes freezing.
[Android General] crazyxzer0:
I've used Adb reboot without any issues. :confused:

[Android General] kjake48:
run 'chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/rootme/su' then try again
[Android General] menissalt:
I booted in to a linux live instance of a flash drive and don't get the error anymore, it just moves to a blank prompt. I'm guessing this is expected.

I'm in the loop of trying to run nefarious. If the expected behavior is for the screen to blink until it reboots then you have to start the process over it would be helpful to note that in the OP. Also what does it look like when it works. Does it just reboot immediately?
[Android General] OldAmber:
Did you run "run-as" first?
[Android General] menissalt:
Yes, see post above

It's not what's suppose to happen, but it's what most of us are experiencing. This happens when you try to remount /system as read/write. No one's really sure why it works for some and not others.

If it works the screen shouldn't flash at all.

little help for a beginner

just a beginner here... thank you for all the hard work... I understand the basic idea of what is being done and what needs to be done. but when you say execute root.sh - how do we go about doing that? is there a specific program, from a terminal, powershell?
[Android General] codeage:
As I has pointed out, you should download the root tool set from GitHub first. You will find root.sh and root.bat in the tool set. Then you can use root.sh in Mac/Linux console or root.bat in Windows command prompt.

Does anyone know how to make playlist work in music player? I am using, 'Music Folder Player'. Whenever I created a playlist or added songs to 'Favorites', the songs disappeared the next time I started my car. Actually, it's a hit and miss for me. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I also use 'pi music player', and the playlist also disappeared the next time I started my car. If anyone has playlist work in their music player, can you tell me, what music player you use? Thank you
[Android General] Toilet Paper:
If it were my guess, the program doesn't have the permission to write (but then the playlist would actually be delete once you ACTUALLY close the app and re-open it), or Honda's version of Android deletes files. I would see if you can find a music app that allows you to store your playlists in a storage device and connect one on the car, and use that instead.
