honda civic 11th gen
I'll take quality and reliability over convenience. Wired isn't great, but it's finicky by itself without introducing wireless to the mix. Plus better audio quality. I'm sticking with wired even if wireless is available. Too many bad experiences with this HU.
hi im curious, i have no idea what version of bluetooth the 11th gen carries and if it still runs in the legacy version (1.0 or 2.0) - then if it does, would it make a huge difference in audio quality if I connect my phone thru wired?

Depends on a few things; if you're using a typical streaming service then probably not. If you're using lossless audio then yes. All bluetooth codecs use some form of compression. I'm not sure which version of BT it uses unfortunately.

So, came up with a new idea. After studying a bit in college, I learned how to spoof certificates and hashes (hash collisions). Problem is, I need an APK that has an accepted certificate to copy it and make the head unit think it’s legit… maybe I could ask some friends in the Honda group (dealers and such).

If you can packet sniff a URL with the head unit connected to Wifi (does it pull updates?) you might be able to get a trusted cert that works....

it all depends. It’s the same situation if you wanna steal data at a coffee shop. If it’s encrypted, it’s a no go. If it’s not, then it’s possible the certificate is only for Wi-Fi updates and stuff. If you wanted to install an APK, you’d need… wait… we have a list of authorized certs already. You can find them in the menu! Although I’m not sure which one is authorized for what

Greetings, I have a honda 2022 model e-hrv hybrid. they have the same multimedia system. and these combinations seem to work. My question is the difference, but how can I activate this menu for automatic closing of the side mirrors?

Great work here. Shame it seems to have gone quiet in recent months. Really keen to know what functions we might be able to enable/disable from the secret menus. I desperately want to disable the annoying disclaimer that comes up every time you turn the car on!

Hey there, have you tried to follow the hidden menu? You can turn off the EQ and I think it gives a better sound.

1. Power off the radio
2. While holding down Phone and Connect, Press the power button 5 times.
3. Go into the Audio Check
4. Go into Speaker Check
5. Turn off the EQ.
6. Hit the back button
7. Hit the power button.

You will still have the option to play with treble, bass and mids. I don't know if its just me but I seem to have more output from my rear speakers and alot more Bass. I think its an improvement on sound but the sound on in this car is still pretty blah.
How to do this to 9” head unit?

At this time i was able to use an app via AndroidAuto that could enable videos while running (just for testing purposes!!). Also i was able to get all the apps on the phone visible but with no interactions on car's screen... ufff!!
