Have you heard? 2016 Honda Pilot has an Android based radio. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I haven't find anything around the net yet. I did find out the new Pilot has a radio running Android. I plan on looking into this more when I have a moment at work. I'm a technician at a Honda dealer. If someone knows of any hacks I should try, let me know. I presume any updates will be done using a USB stick so that's probably the best way in.

Same here I want to know too I just got my pilot

Waiting on someone to come out with a root on the pilot radio. I'm a 16 years Honda tech myself and pretty tech savvy. I would love to root this system and have full control of the system. I have seen that Honda is coming out with their own app store so we will see.

For anyone wondering, its running 4.2.2. It looks you can integrate with the USB ports as there is a way to install APKs with a USB drive. I would probably use a one touch root app as the method to get in.
I just stopped by a dealership to look and was poking around and found the app picker which has a browser, settings, and install from USB apps.

I just finalized my purchase of a 2016 Pilot and will have it by the end of the week. When test driving, I did notice the option to install apps via .apk files from a USB. I forgot to see what the internal storage capacity of the unit was, but I can confirm that it runs 4.2.2. I also recall seeing that it was WiFi capable, but I will have to confirm when I get it. Either way, it was a nice bonus to see that the infotainment system was running Android. I'll post again with a few more details in case anybody else is interested.
***UPDATE***
Just in case anybody cares........................the Pilot is WiFi capable. I connected to my home network and the unit installed an update. As of right now, the ability to install any app has been disabled by Honda. Attempts to install an apk via USB and the android browser from APKmirror have been negative. According to a poster at a Pilot forum, he called Honda who stated that the ability to install android apps would be added as a later update. Fingers crossed it actually happens. Many of the system options are disabled so I cannot see the storage capacity or chipset of the unit. It definitely has potential though......

I just got a 2106 Pilot Elite. When parked close to the house it connects to the home wifi. Browser works. Im definitely going to look forward to apk install too.

I did a PDI on a '16 Accord and it is running Android also. I haven't played with it more than what was necessary. I'm sure there well be some kind of usb based update like the old radios.

All of the Android programs for the Pilot and Accord are available for download at the above link. I wonder if someone can figure out how to add CARPLAY from the Accord software to the Pilots

Does anyone have any updates regarding this thread? Still can't figure out way to get in. Thanks!

Found a few things.
Hi All,
I have a 2016 honda civic which shouldn't be too different from the pilot and accord. I had done some digging around a found a few things in the system. I have posted a link to the thread below.
(remove spaces in the link)
http: //forum. xda-developers.com/android/help/2016-honda-civic-trouble-unlocking-t3262516
I found the secret menu but was unable to access the developer mode since it kept asking for a "passcord"........
Let us know if someone figures a way around this problem.

I don't really know what it is, but it sounds quite amazing

I'm also curious about this!

Would love to see someone Root this device just for fun. Wish I had the skills.
Getting access to the apps and widgets. along with potential android auto implementation would stick it to honda!

I'd be more than happy to try a few things if I only had one of those car on hand .

Any exploits in 4.2.2 that could be accessed through the web? Vehicle has full web browser capability through 4.2.2 browser just no access go app store or apps....

There is one or two that I know of that have some chances of working. They might require some adaptations however in order to work properly as the OS might have been modified. I'll drop by by the end of the week with an update =) .

If you need another person to test things I'm willing. I've been digging around and they locked us out pretty well. I tried using the browser to download and install an apk and it went through the process of installing and asking for permissions but then said "App not installed". There are also a bunch of apps installed that we don't see running and can't seem to access,interestingly some are labeled "Mitsubishi".

[ROM][WWE][03-25-2009]At0mAng |Fusion Power|Beta Test OS Build 21040| Testers Needed

This ROM is based CE OS 5.2.21040 (Build 21040.1.6.0). ROM dump for Rhodium test device.
TF3D2 is included but needs to be updated with the update patch from Xboxmod.
Please test bluetooth, bluetooth headset, activesync, GPRS, and all other basic functions. Please do not post about Manila bugs. I know it gives an error when it first boots and will fix it in a couple of hours.
Just want the basic functions of the phone tested for now to make sure it works.
Thanks!
http://www.4shared.com/file/94911905/67926d50/RUU_signed_Test.html
DOH!
Forgot to add the link in my haste to get to class
Ill try and help you out here since Im a fan of your work, but if you just want the basic functions of the phone tested for now, why not use the first version of TF3D so that it eliminates the current TF3D UI errors. Then, when you want to test out to see how friendly the Rhodium TF3D is with this build, then include it for us to test? That way, if there are bugs we would be able to distinguish if its related to the new build/base rom or its its related to the Rhodium TF3D.
At0mAng,
Looking forward to the surprise awaiting in this ROM.
Keep it up dude.

I'm flashing now, I'll let you know what I find. Since, I haven't said it before, thanks for all your hard work, I've been enjoying your rom for the past few days!

No problem and thank you. I just uploaded a new version that has BT drivers in it. For some reason the ROM dump did not have BT drivers with it and I noticed it after I posted the link and after qsqa mentioned it to me

Party pooper
I've only used ROMeOS over my past few phones and then a little RRE action but since I've used some of your cabs, the most recent one being the agps settings, and I think have some with your name in them on my site, maybe you know what time it is so what the hell, slow day at work, I'll flash yours even though I was up until 4am last night flashing and perfecting the latest RRE. Gotta have the bleeding edge!
Also I want to lock this useless post on your thread nice and early because if it's as pimp tight as I think it might be I'd like to give you a super silly fresh fast mirror and want to link it here.
[edit] here's that mirror.
Here's to us.

Here goes nothin!
Well, the first thing, and this may be something I'm doing, but I ran connection setup but I have no signal and when I try to open up the phone dialer it gives me the cprog.exe error. I'll edit this post if I find anything else.

Download it again...This version should give no errors...sorry.
I can not test any of the phone functions...phone is broke...I think we all know the story
Just so everyone knows...this is a rough beta...still need to clean sys and do some of my tweaking to it. Clean up icons and such...so be advised it is nowhere near to a finish product.
Okay, will reflash in a moment. Why are all of the Chef's phones breaking? My phone breaks, no cares but me, your phone breaks and all of us flashing addicts are lost! NATF broke his too!

Thanks...i know all about the new apps. as i said my phone is broke and i want to make sure the basic functions are working before i start porting the apps.
just want to make sure all basic functions are working. bluetooth headsets, activesync, wireless lan and other basic functions.
i have a new build to post when i am done with classes today...
So far, so good. All of the basic features I have tried, worked as normal. I was able to connect to my bluetooth headset, phone calls have been made, texts have been sent. I entered in my connection settings and have been surfing the net on Opera. Anything else specific that you'd like me to test?

Yeah, BT has worked fine on multiple calls both in and out. The only thing I can't help you with is wifi, mine hasn't worked since I started flashing roms and I have yet to find a fix for it. ActiveSync works fine also.

Yes...I did not hex edit the shell.exe yet...I am still building this. I am basically going through all the DLLs and EXEs one by one to see what can be used and what cant be used. Before I went through all that trouble I wanted to see if all the hardware functions were working correctly.

Force Developments-ROMs and Testing

Being that the previous thread was getting filled up, I have opted to start a new thread. This thread is to be for Force Development ROM's. They are primarily devoted to the Titan just as before, but we are restructuring a bit.
From this point on, please do not refer to these ROM's as "Tplane37's 21xxx 6.5 ROM" as I am not the only person working on these behind the scenes. I would prefer that they are referred to as "Force Developments" ROM's, thus allowing universal credit to everyone involved in the process.
Additionally, if you would like to join in on the efforts, or have questions pertaining to these ROM's, we are on the IRC at:
Server: chat.Freenode.net
Channel: #forcedevelopments
A web site is also in the works. Thanks for testing and we look forward to working with you!

Okay, I should have tested these builds longer before releasing them. Now that I am getting into the more advanced side of things, you may see more time between releases. I am going to be working on things still, so check in once in a while and see what I have up and going. If you like the M2D for 6.5, don't worry, there are CABs available. Just remember, they are being tested as well and are the exact same files I was using in the releases I just pulled. I need to relax a bit and quit getting so excited about new features and need to get back to focusing on quality. I will be around and still working in the background, but as I said, more time will pass between releases. Thanks for testing!

23004 with the SPB is working great. Looks good, runs fast, memory holding steady.

I would like to, but that is not likely. This is where I found the setup in the manual install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407487
I am toying with SPB 3 now, but am having issues cooking it in. This is by far one of the more difficult tasks I have encountered because the registry entries are rotating around all over the place and being a pain (as far as customizing). The "Ultimate WM7" is not working with SPB 3, but I am hoping to figure everything out so I can manually change the files. I have tried contacting the creator numerous times in the past few months, but have received no response. So this is new territory for me.
All in all, with the help of others on the Force Developments Team, we are trying to get something unique in our ROMs since it is no longer much of a challenge to get a working ROMs out of things. Hope everyone enjoys testing!
I have been using the spb 3 on your rom and have just found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=507697&page=276#2759
(MS301 Widgets Pro Plus Ultimate 061809)
Just installed it and it give allot of options to custimize.
Just Flashed
I just flashed the new rom and I'm pretty impressed overall. It's a huge departure from what I'm use to, but I'll give it a few days to see if it grows on me.
I just rebooted as I was typing this to disable the extended rom and go into high mem mode and now it looks totally different. I think this is what I should have been seeing. Very nice! Very clean but easy to get to everything. I think I may just enjoy this.
--later--
One question though, does this rom not include office? There's an office folder under the programs icon in the laucher, but no office apps in it. I also noticed there are 26 icons in the programs section of the launcher, but there's actually 36 folders/shortcuts in ..\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. So all the programs do not seem to be listed.
The various Icons bit is something I am working on. For some reason, SPB 2.1.4 isn't recognizing the entire list but SPB 3 does. Office was not installed apparently, I thought I had selected that (since I usually do!). I have a CAB for it somewhere and will upload it once I find it. But is someone else has a CAB for WM 6.5 Office, feel free to post it for everyone to have.
Personally, I like SPB 3 stock out of the box, and it is what I am using on my personal ROM. I am trying to at least get it to cook in properly with the Start menu override as default (it can be changed easily by anyone if they don't want the start menu overridden).

After upgrading CF to 3.7, I can now run Igo 8!
How can I find out which version of CF you used.
I tried to install 3.5, but installer showed an error regarding programs that were running.
I did not find any reference to uninstall 3.5, so I went with 3.7.
TCPMP plays smoother too. Web pages load faster.

Checking out audio next. I think the adapter issue (I don't have this problem) has something to do with a second "Mike" ground. from what I found on a "Pin Out" page somewhere.

And thank you everyone here for helping us make better use of our dependable units.
OOPS:
I just realized that is for the Artemis... It may be "Universal".
Memory just too low...
Well that rom is quite pretty but I had to side-step to another 23004 rom I found on PPCGeeks. My memory rarely shot above 10-12MB while using this rom. I had trouble running both Iris browser and Skyfire with nothing else running.
I look forward to trying a more optimized version. Is this rom UC compatible? I really need to learn to use UC or Sashimi if I'm going to be flashing this often. I'm sick of changing the same 10-12 settings and setting up all my email accounts. It blows to do this manually as often as I've been flashing lately. Cab installs are not a big deal to me, they are all on my SD so i just install them as I need them.

from what i know
this is the audio adapter issue

beware...some audio adapters are stereo and some additionally port the mic.
the oem adapter ports the mic...so a stereo plug seems to cause issues...

Netflix App

Looks like it's almost finished. The app is ready and it'll let you sign in and manage your queue but when you attempt to stream a video an error pops up with:

So I attached the apk of the file that I installed if anyone wants to play around with it.
EDIT: I noticed that there are a few of these posts already and if the forum or senior moderator wouldn't mind merging these, I'm fine with that. The search feature wasn't working during the time of posting.
EDIT 2: I decompiled the app and attached it. If anyone is savvy enough to take a look, perhaps you can figure out why it's not running. It might be something on Netflix's end... or it might be DRM, it might be something in the .prop files... who knows.
So, Netflix.apk is the app
Netflix.zip is the decompiled app.
I let myself get too excited when I installed this afternoon the app itself should would but with the lg phone. Lets hope someone could crack this

The DRM required for the streaming to work likely isn't present on our phones and may never be?
Could the issue be related to our Vibrants not passing a DRM check? I'm pretty t I read when that a DRM check was needed to stream with Netflix (and also the upcoming Hulu app).
Maybe someone can rip out the coding the requires the check.

I tried it and I got a black screen as if it was about to stream video, then it backed out to the main Netflix screen.
Tried it again and got that notorious server error.
Seems like it is checking for something first.. likely DRM stuff. Hopefully they just get on top of it and release the damn thing!
Anyone try changing the build.prop to a phone model with the proper hardware for the drm check?

Love your keyboards
I decompiled the app and attached it to the OP.
I honestly don't think that it's DRM.
If you look at the code specifically strings.xml and lookup the error that you get (1005) here is what it says:
<string name="NFErr_MC_OpenDeviceFailure">Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. If the problems persists please visit netflix.com. (1005)</string>
It looks like a DRM error would be 1008 and 0028.
But we could be getting more than one error too.
May be it in the build prop that needs editing???

It could be account related... perhaps an account has to be "cleared" with netflix to stream to android?
...how about a more...hopeful scenario?
it could be that the app simply isn't pointing to the right place to stream a video from.

Maybe they just got started on their own netflix streaming through phone..
They may still be working on it

[ISSUES/Q&A] Umeox x201, TrueSmart, AW-414/420

THIS THREAD IS FOR THOSE WHO ARE PLANNING ON BUYING ONE OF THESE WATCHES...OR USERS THAT WISH TO SHARE BUGS OR PROBLEMS THEY'VE ENCOUNTERED.​
I'll start....
First off, what is the true RAM of the AW-420/1? Ive read up to 2gb (421) and as low as 512mb...
What is the issue with the 201/421s mic? Is it an hardware or software issue? If SW, does Loki's ROM address this?
I am seeing many comments that criticize the IPxx rating...even simple washing of hands will cause leakage....comments?
I read in multiple posts on German based forums that users were able to install 32GB and 64GB SD, class 10 cards in the 421 and they mounted fine. Has anyone confirmed this?
Does anyone know of a vendor or retailer that is willing to ship either the 201, 420, 421 etc. to the US?
Or....is there anyone in EU willing to help US buyers get these watch's delivered overseas?
i can confirm 32 GB installed and working fast with X201

The proper firmware version can be found by going to Settings/System/About. It is the bottom entry in the about. The current firmware is 20140120
EDIT:
fixed the firmware version. Haven't even had my fist cup of coffee yet, sorry.

root and security patch 1.02 on AW-420
Hi, I just tried to install lokifishs root and security patch 1.02 on my AW-420 FW 20131230, but this simply doesn't seem to work. While adb is running a lot of error Messages are displayed, saying either that files cannot be found or that they cannot be written.

Hi, I just installed the TalkBack Screen reading accessibility Service from the Play store, but the button to turn it on is simply missing. It seems to be positioned outside the TalkBack introductary message window, but also cannot be focused using an external Keyboard. My hope was that this could eventually be fixed by installing lokifishs root and security patch, but as I wrote in my last post that doesn't work on my AW-420.
I allready read that the Firmware of the AW-414/420 and also the TrueSmart do have issues with the accessibility Services, but couldn't figure this out more detailed. For me accessibility / using TalkBack is essential, so what can be done to solve this?
Many thanks, nilix24

TrueSmart microphone quality
The sound on my to smart for phone calls coming in is great. But when I speak it is just garbled and in audible to the other end. I have held the phone in various positions to little avail. This makes no sense because the voice recognition apps are able to follow me reasonably accurately. Anybody else had this problem and does anyone have any advice?
Also, how do I adjust up and down the volume of the speaker for example for phone calls but for other things as well.

Hi,
I have the same problem and it's very frustrating for me that' The watch looks beautiful and works well and I can not understand why there is a loud noise when I speak, I hope it's a software problem and the next versions will be resolved.
thanks,

Thanks, will try ASAP.
Here in Germany it is distrebuted by Pearl and they just have it on stock.
I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this question, but it seems to be the most logical place.
Question: Is it possible to choose your home screen or your last viewed screen as default when you turn on your TS screen? Currently, when you unlock your screen, it goes to the watch. I would prefer it to go to my home android screen.

Thanks for your help with the watch face default screen.
I have one more issue I am trying to solve. I followed Daniel Ortiz's "GPS Calibration and Quick Lock Fix" https://plus.google.com/u/0/111628072657804333818/posts/5UyzcSadTmw
Everything worked as shown in the pictures, however, once I leave wifi, I still cannot get a location fix using GPS. This means I cannot use cycling apps, google maps, and the damn time is always wrong. :crying: Does anyone know what steps need to be taken after the GPS calibration guide to have GPS working properly?

To be honest, one of two things MUST happen.... Either we get the source and the dev community fixes...or we are given firmware that works. In regards to the BT and GPS, I think this is gonna be about as good as it gets.

Well the bluetooth is working great for me (thanks to all the developers on XDA who made that possible), and BT was the most important thing for me, so I can't complain. Of course, I wish Omate released a properly functioning product, but as a startup company, I do understand having these early issues.

I have to reset my headset a couple times a day. And my BT speaker has to be paired every time I use it. I don't have much need for the GPS, I feel the screen size hinders most of the apps I use.
Btw, It's not really Omate...the TS has many cousins....it's a combination of Umeox and MTK. Both parties have gotten dirty in this situation.

Good to know about the BT. I have yet to test the BT connection to a wireless speaker/headphones for an extended period of time. There were some posts in the BT tether rom thread that stated that using just the Ensec security patch and not the BT tether rom gave a more stable BT connection.

I'm using Operative. Super battery life...great 3G connection periods and signal. Stable and fast too. With all that the patch offers, I will live with the minor BT disconnects.
I wish that the onboard Mic/speaker get fixed. Without the headset, a SIM equipped TS is basically useless for calls. I've read that a few people have mentioned decent quality...but very few. I actually am quite surprised how bad the quality is for the caller. If needed tho, I found that if you cover the Mic while the caller is talking, this can reduce the echo and distortion.

Pairing a bluetooth headset
Hi,
I got a kickstarter model from eBay, and updated / flashed the ROM to 20140115.153703_V2.0.
On my Bluetooth page, there is no 'Scanning' option to pair a headset.
I can pair the TS to a phone, but not TS to headset.
I have the Omate headset.
Is there a ROM or patch to allow pairing?
I have tethering wrking, but that is WiFi, and i have had the companion working also.
I am now using as a full phone (sim card) and calls are ok, but would really like to pair a headset.

No idea. Haven't used it myself. Check that 4pda thread. There seem to be a lot of info about various different android versions etc. and what might work with them..

It's probably made for newer versions. Or there is a charging bug that might cause it - or lack of it apparently...
There is like dozens (maybe not, but a lot) of different versions there that might work on your device. You'd better to register there to see it all really...

I opened apk editor pro and i viewed the required sdk version and the minimum sdk version matches with android 3's sdk version so its probably not an android version issue but ill look into it further
Thanks for all your help
i really appreciate it

i am installing on android 4.2.2, i am installing on head unit, the screen resolution is 800x480, it is in emulated storage
tell me the exact path of your device
/emulated/0/ or /storage/emulated/0 or whatever is there
if you don't know it, you can install Total Commander, which makes things easier

the other important thing is whether it is in portrait or landscape mode
this should work
the program with which the path is changed is also in the archive
https://wdfiles.ru/69223a4
I'm sorry
I did not realize that even with an incorrect path, the application must still be started
it probably won't work on your device
iGO is an alternative

why will it not work
i am installing on 2022 honda crv head unit
