I can't figure this out. It was fine I didn't mess with anything for a few trips and then today, it just did this.

I turned on the car and noticed the Honda logo was not going away. I pressed home - nothing happened. I pressed back - it showed the wallpaper, and that's it. No buttons or anything. I tries brightness/power/menu - nothing.

I had accessory on and pulled the fuse (it shut off) I put the fuse back in and it boots back up to the same problem. I could disconnect the battery but that shouldn't have any different effect from pulling the fuse.

Has anyone had this yet? Will I have to make a trip to the dealership?

Have you tried to reboot it? Hold the console's power button down for a few seconds and then the option on the screen should pop up to restart it. Tap yes and it should reboot and restart - hopefully back to normal.

Yes, but the message never pops up. I did end up getting it to reboot by pressing where I expected the message SHOULD be, and then it rebooted but right to the original issue, so rebooting isn't fixing it. I would like to do a factory restore on it, but I of course can't get to those settings to even try (I'm not even sure we can do a system restore)

this happened to me on a road trip once, don't know what caused it but I had to pull over, shut the car off, open the door, close the door, wait a few seconds and start the car. never happened to me since, I suspect maybe it got too hot or something.

I'm thinking I might be able to trigger a factory restore if I can press the right locations. Seems like things are there, I just can't see it come up.

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1026546/Honda-Civic-Sedan-2016.html?page=333

I have to find screenshots of the steps to figure out where to press

(Actually, I've been looking and can't find them. Would some be able to get pics of the steps and how many times to press scroll down, or over? Thanks)

EDIT:

FIXED!
I found a YouTube video of someone going in the menu and blindly pressed where the buttons should be and it worked! All is well again!

Hey, im having the some problem. Has anyone fixed this? My radio won't pass from the H logo no matter how many times I turn it off, I remove the fuse, the battery, etc. It will only display rear camera and the right camera.

I've gotten into the secret recovery mode before, but this was when I was doing HondaHack on my previous 2019 Si. Use this at your own risk, but this is something you could try. What happened for me is it booted into the Android recovery screen and I was able to factory reset the system and it worked perfectly.

I had an issue where it was stuck on the distracted driving warning screen... I disconnected the car battery.. waited a few minutes and reconnected... everything rebooted and has been fine since.. might be worth a shot.
