You need to return to stock and get the recall done at a dealership BEFORE you attempt to flash ANY new tune. If you flash a tune before getting the recall done you will be stuck with a dash full of errors and unable to return to stock. The only fix for that is getting the dealership to flash the recall over your tune.
From Hondata forums:
Updates to the saga, big shout outs to @Syntek for keeping us updated, his car is not eligible for the recall so he is stuck with 2016 binaries. I've been too nervous to do anything hondata or recall related until they get this all sorted out.

Seems I need to elaborate on this as I just entirely fucked myself.
DO NOT UPDATE YOUR FLASH PRO BEFORE RETURNING YOUR CAR TO STOCK IF YOH DONTDHAVE THE RECALL UPDATE.
I can't even flash the car back to stock after updating the flash pro and it's firmware to the latest version.

We also have changed the return to stock for 2016 Civics so that they can choose to return to the 2016 or 2017 binaries.
The problem is that along with the oil dilution ECU update Honda is updating the transmission software to 2017, and the ECU / TCM versions have to match, so 2016 Civics can either use a 2016 or 2017 binary and there is no way of determining which should be the correct one. So when you return to stock it will ask. If you have had the Honda oil dilution update, then choose 2017, otherwise choose 2016. Note that hatches and anything other than 2016 Civics are not affected.
I'll revert later to confirm if this works going back to stock + tunes, etc.
Quick update, I was able to revert back to stock after the dash was lit up with errors. I'll try to upload a tune in a bit to see if that works as well.
Update, I'm unable to upload a tune to my car the dash lights up with errors .
Yeah that's fine.
The car can be put back to stock without an issue but any tune I upload and the whole dash lights up and car ends up being in limp mode unfortunately. I'm wondering because the programmer is telling the calibration that it's on the new binary instead
