It gives me great pleasure to announce the public release of our TunerView Lite Android app for the head unit absolutely free. Lite because it does not include some functionality, like the overlay video and google map location tracking.

This powerful app connects to any KTunerFlash V1.2 or V2 device via bluetooth and offers up 9 beautiful layouts to view real-time information. These layouts are fully programmable from the items shown on the screen to the colors of text and more. Match your style easily through the menu system.

To Root The Head Unit:
Current steps to root for 16-17 models are here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-how-to-enter-developer-mode-2017-t3621582

2018+ owners. There is a new method of rooting via the web browser. Honda Hack is what you want to use for rooting.

What you need to do after rooting:


  • Put the app on a USB stick and plug it into the vehicle's USB port.
  • Use Honda Installer to install the app from the USB stick.

  • Download the latest KTuner software update, 1.0.8.2, available now from the KTuner website downloads page. Install, launch KTuner, and plug your device in to update it to the latest firmware. http://www.KTuner.com/downloads

16-17 Models
  • For V1.2, once connected to KTuner after updating you can find the V1.2 Special Command Menu under the Tuning menu in the software. Find BT PIN Disable and choose it. This puts the unit into a mode that's discoverable by the head unit and requires no pin to pair.

  • For V2 users after you've updated you'll find BT PIN as an option on the main menu of the V2 device. Choose disable from the BT PIN menu to program it into the required mode.

  • Pair from your head unit.
  • Launch the TunerView Lite App.
2018 Models
  • You'll need to install version 1.0.8.2 of the KTuner software, or later. Grab the current version from www.KTuner.com/downloads

  • After installing it will ask to update your firmware once you plug the KTuner unit in. Make sure you have good power and do so.

  • For V1.2 once updated and connected again you'll need to select Enable BT PIN Advanced In the Special V1.2 Commands under Tools menu.

  • For V2 under BT PIN on the main menu choose Enable Adv.

  • After it completes reset power to the unit by unplugging both USB and OBD sides.

  • Plug it back into the OBD side only and key on to accessory mode or start the vehicle.

  • On your head unit run the TunerView Lite app, go to connect in the TunerView menu, and choose search to show BT devices. Choose the KTuner unit on the right. If all is well it should connect!



ALL MODELS
Follow our guides to use the menu and connect.



The guides which come included with the standard TunerView app will also be added to the KTuner Online Help when it is refreshed.

For V1.2 users you can flash tunes stored on your V1.2 directly from the head unit! Also activate On Board Logging.

We look forward to your feedback. Enjoy!

I am a happy V2 user, but I must admit that I am a little hesitant to grant so many permissions to the TunerView app. Could someone help me understand why the app needs to record audio, access my pictures, or make phone call?

EDIT: I now understand that these permissions are for the phone app and allow for video with gauge overlay

I can explain the audio and pictures, in that it has the option to record video. Not sure about the phone functionality, but it may be tied to allowing a pass through for the Bluetooth connection to your phone.

For those that want a easy web base install or doesn't have a laptop. You can e-mail ( [email protected] ) the creator of the app directly for the web install. Just tell him you have a 2016-18 Civic and you are interested in getting the web base hondahack install
He will give you a URL with a password to enter into your browser and you follow the steps on the screen.
I tried to get us a forum use only password/url but he said to just have each user to e-mail him.

For 2018 users , you will need to enable the browser from the diagnostic menu. Also I believe they changed the bluetooth coding on the 2018 headunit. It's having trouble pairing to a non phone device
