And apparently this method doesn't work anymore? I followed it to a tee... even spent 30 bucks on a USB a to a cable after hunting one down locally.... what a pain in the ass.

Can I get some straight info... from some sort of source. Or a video... that's current.... and applies to my car.... christ

that method only works for 2016-17. if you have a 2018 then you have to pay for it

Ok so I pay this dude.... use browser to let some magic ether hack my software... then what? Why was it such a big deal to enter developer mode on the 18s?... i'm still lost.

Step by step start to finish listed in order. Does this exist somewhere?

Ok read that. That's only half. Once that's done then what? Is the hondata mobile already there once the hack is done. Don't I still need to download the app? Don't I need to change some bluetooth setting in flashpro manager? Click a box and disconnect etc etc etc etc.

Im being a little sarcastic but also serious because I think i'm usually pretty good at this stuff and can't imagine how some of the others feel about it. It's overly complicated.

actually you might be able to install it with the cable. The auto install is much easier and safer to use.

you download the app and install it from a usb stick just follow hondata directions

you literally just follow this: http://www.autohack.org/vehicles/civic/

now that you have Honda hack installed,
- put the latest Hondata mobile apk file on a usb stick
- plug the usb stick into your car
- in Honda hack click install apps, select the Hondata app to install.

now go plug your Flashpro into a computer,
in Flashpro manager, go to the Flashpro window, click Bluetooth, click the 2018 Bluetooth setting on.

then you should be able to pair your phone to your infotainment.
at this point you might be where I am where Hondata app wont pair with the Flashpro or some people it works just fine now.

For Honda Civic SI 2018, here is the basic rundown.

1. Enter Developer mode
2. Install latest Hondata tablet app on Infotainment
3. Update Hondata FlashPro to latest stable
4. Set the FlashPro setting for the '18 Civic
5. Connect FlashPro via Bluetooth
6. Launch Hondata app on Infotainment

1. Enter Developer Mode (similar to the previous method, but with a different button sequence)

Hit "Build number" the 7 times it takes to ask for the "passcord".

Then, hit these buttons in the following sequence:

1. Kernel version
2. Model Number
3. Build number (Again!)
4. Status (Top item on the page)

Ignore the 1-4 numbers, they mean nothing. It's looking for the strings, not any real number sequence.

2. Install latest Hondata tablet app on Infotainment

This is an important step. You likely have an older version. This link is to the v1.5 version of the Hondata Dash app. The older versions will not work.

Download https://www.hondata.com/forum/download/file.php?id=10594 onto a FAT32 formatted USB drive

Insert the drive into the USB port of the car (in the drink holder USB slow of the center arm rest)
On the Infotainment, there should be an app to Install App
Install the Hondata Mobile app on the Infotainment.

3. Update Hondata FlashPro to latest stable

You will need at least FlashPro V3.1.2 (17 Aug 2018)

http://hondata.com/updates/index.php?app=FlashProManager&action=download&includebeta=1

4. Set the FlashPro setting for the '18 Civic

See the Bluetooth Vehicle Pairing for the CHECKBOX that you will need to check for the FlashPro

https://www.hondata.com/help/flashpro/bluetooth_vehicle_pairing.htm

5. Connect FlashPro via Bluetooth

Go into the Bluetooth settings of the car and pair the FlashPro with the car. It should now connect (previously was failing)

6. Launch Hondata app on Infotainment

From my experience, you no longer need to press the lightning connector to get the FlashPro to pair with the app. You only will be prompted the first time to select the Bluetooth device; which should now be paired and working.




These are basically all of the steps that I did for getting my '18 Civic SI to work with the FlashPro Dash app. Prior to getting it working, I did install HondaHack, but once I was able to get it working, I installed the infotainment app via the normal Honda App Installer instead of HondaHack. If you are unable to install the app, you may need HondaHack, but it should work without it.

I did this previously and the install button is not selectable (faded out and wont press). I do not have honda hack. I'll try this exact step by step later on today and let you know.

So here's my hangup, I'm on a 17 Si, I plug the laptop in and run the honda hack but it won't connect. My understanding is the free honda hack should work with 16s and 17s, any advice anyone?

Quick question. I have the app installed and the app runs and connects. However, when I start to drive the app is forced closed and the screen says that "this function is not availible while vehicle is in motion." Or something like that

Is this just something that happens now? Or should I be able to use this while driving?

What are the steps to UPDATE the Hondata app in the infotainment system in my 2017 Type R? Turns out there was an update for a really long time and I never did it. Figured maybe it would update automatically when it is say, in the garage and wifi is connected, meaning it has internet connection. Turns out not to be that simple. Lol.
