I want to use Waze on my phone, and have it show on the screen while driving. Surely there is some way to make this possible. I have seen ways people can make the backup camera be on whenever you want on the CR-V and Accord for example in hidden radio menus. There has to be a way to do what I want to, anyone know the secret?

My phone will do HDMI out just fine, I just need the video to display when the car is moving, no different than built in navi.

From what I've been able to find out, projecting your phone's display like that is not possible. The only alternative is if you have the HondaLink app with your IPhone. Don't have an IPhone, well then you're SOL.

Dang, I found this link talking about video out working from basically anything:

http://owners.honda.com/vehicles/information/2016/HR-V/features/HDMI-Video

But that one works when it is stopped, this is what I need to fool. I have an Android phone, but just basic video out should not matter one whit. My wife has an iPhone for all the other features, I just want mine for Waze.

I think it's a safety / liability issue... they want to control exactly what you're allowed to have on-screen when the car's underway. I suspect this may be the major stumbling block for Car Play / Android Auto adoption.

Sorry just realized you are talking about a moving vehicle and didn't try it with car in motion.

Search google and you will see a number of people are trying to figure this out from the FIT to the CRV. I to would like to mirror my iPhone GPS app while in motion. It looks to be two systems that will cause the lockout.

Suzuki Hayabusas purposely made less power in first gear than other gears. Someone made a device that plugged into the computer to trick it into thinking it was always in 2nd gear. Wonder if there is something similar for the HR-V to make it think it's always in Park

I found an article related to this on the FIT/JAZZ forum in the philippines, an adapter/cable was attached on the handrbrake mechanism, just to fool the computer that it is engaged, im not just sure if this will work on our HRV since there is no physical handbrake lever.

I want this but don't speak Portuguese.

 

[Kaos2800]

Assuming that's Brazilian money, 550 is about $160 US

in other markets, they can unlock the system and have the vdo or whatever you have on the phone play on the screen while in motion. I guess it's a safety issue here to prevent people from looking at the screen while driving.

Hi everyone. I have just gotten my HRV here in Malaysia and loving it so far. I have just gotten a device that allows me to mirror my iPhone to the HU while driving.

I'll post some feedback once it is installed in.

 

[el_ben2]

I have a weird problem....
I hhave a GALAXY NOTE 4 and the HDMI+USB-to-microUSB cable when i select HDMI as the input i can see the phone screen on the HU, but theres no sound... even if I open spotify or any other app that makes sound... no sound by the HU either by the phone...
does someone haves this problem too?

 

[Ps1234]

It may be the hdmi won't play volume while driving? I think they won't let video play while driving....have you tried Bluetooth? It may not mirror the phone, but you might get volume back

 

[Nutts]

Might check and see if you need the nav app in order to make it work..

 

[el_ben2]

Sygic mirrorlink works perfect, with sound and everything.... but when i select the hdmi as input... i can see the phone screen on the HU, but cant control the cellphone by the HU screen, i need to control it from the phone... also if i select spotify, it wont let me listen anything....
mmmm
i think i must record a video to show you all the problem

 

[Ps1234]

In the U.S., the hdmi, I think, is only usable when the car is in park, for video. It won't allow it, for liability.
I think that's part of the problem, but don't know what the solution is.

Hi, there, I am from Bangkok. Yes, it will work the same in your HR-V screen. Actually, what you need is just cut one hand-brake sensor wire from the HU socket and make it to ground. But if you don't want to harm your wire harness. I have this "Plug-N-Play" socket to do this.

@auan :
Can you elaborate a little?
"hand-brake sensor wire from the HU socket"?
"I have this "Plug-N-Play" socket to do this"?

Is that applicable to the US HRV model?
