Thanks for the video. I just DIY upgraded my 2012 Honda Civic Coupe head unit to the Joying head unit. Pretty simple install. Night and day difference in sound. The EQ on the Joying is crazy customizable. Wireless Android auto works like a charm. All the steering wheel controls works.

Nice video. I just bought an after market radio as well and I was just wondering how you managed to get the last two screws holding the radio in place out?

Pardon my ignorance, but I noticed you added updated links in the description for "UPDATE: New for 2023/2024 Android 12 Version with DTS Audio". What are the main differences between the original unit and this new updated unit? Is it just the OS version? I am not super aware of audio stuff, is DTS audio a lot better quality?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It's completely new hardware inside. All new operating system and a new user interface. I would say overall the new version is superior but the Android 10 units are really good too. I would watch some videos of the different models and see what you think. Can't go wrong with either.

[@SkunkieDesignsElectronics]

Got mine installed and loving it! I am having an issue with the backup camera you listed, when I put the car in reverse, it switches to the camera screen but it's black. I played with the camera settings but no joy. Possibly a bad camera? The car is a manual shift, maybe this is slightly different?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

The camera gets power from the reverse lights. So you have to connect the included camera power wire to the positive and negative in the back at the reverse lights. If that is correct than it's either a bad video wire or a bad camera.

[@SkunkieDesignsElectronics]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone it was a bad camera, thanks again for your help!

So how does the backup camera work when it already appears in the i-mid screen? Is something rewired so the feed goes to the head unit instead?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

My car did not have a factory backup camera and an aftermarket one was added. If you have a factory one it can be made to feed into the head unit but it requires tapping into the feed going into the imid display and is more complicated. By default it will just stay using the imid.

[@MohamedAli-mq9mq]

I love the display that the 2012 android has, will the 2014-15 have the same display or have the option to change the display to what you currently have

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It's the same display

[@Magicnaners]

Quick question, I see you're still able to switch screens on the i-MID but it appears that the fuel economy stats and odometer are blank? Does the information appear once you've started the car fully rather than just in accessory mode? Also, are you still able to access the menu to reset the maintenance reminders? Those are like the 2 things stopping me from pulling the trigger on an upgrade haha.

Yes everything works just like factory.

[@fabianbrito6562]

[@davidvalenzuela201]

Do videos play while driving or only with the parking brake set?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It can play while driving. There is a setting to switch in the settings.

[@kiri7648]

Do you have any recommendations for a slightly cheaper option? I just got my 2012 Civic LX with the base stereo and as a college student I don't have a ton of money to throw around. Do you recommend waiting and saving up for a more expensive stereo setup, or will a cheaper option work fine? And if so, what are some of the cheaper options you would reccomend?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Unfortunately the cheaper Android based stereos are pretty crappy. You could always just use a dash kit with harness adapter and put in a universal type double din stereo.

[@yahirsaavedra981]

Did you had to install the backup camera yourself. Or did the screen came with it? Or did your 2012 Honda already had it built in?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Had to install it myself.

[@dominikescobar4977]

Did you ever find out if it does?

[@TCSMaingot]

Great video, but did you ever get your steering wheel phone buttons to work?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

The phone buttons don't work because they are connected directly to the imid screen, not the stereo. There may be a way to make them work, but I haven't figured it out yet. It's a problem on the Honda. No aftermarket stereo can use those phone buttons. The volume and left right, etc. work fine though. The regular controls are through the canbus network but the phone controls are analog and wired to the imid.

[@user-mm3yc2ge6y]

Which socket/connector communicates the source of audio (and channel or song name) from the device to the little iMID display ? I installed Joying head unit yesterday but the iMID screen says “Audio off”! But my civic is 2015 hybrid with the factory DA screen so the harness could be slightly different. I might have not connected the said socket/connector properly too

[@user-mm3yc2ge6y]

Also, the device did not click in place (it has the bracket with the climate controls and vent). One side is coming out and it’s annoying! Should I buy new clips and replace the old ones?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

This sounds like a canbus issue. All of that info is transmitted via canbus data network.

[@jprice4250]

Hello again, question on the backup camera. Do you just have to connect the RCA video connection and not the trigger wire? I noticed that you had the trigger wire taped off so I'm guessing this unit turns on when video is present and doesn't depend on a trigger wire? (I hope I'm describing this correctly, haven't installed a backup camera yet)

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

This unit turns on the camera because of the canbus network sending the signal to the radio that it is in reverse, so you do not need the trigger wire.

[@jprice4250]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone , great...thanks again for the quick reply. Awaiting delivery of my radio, so appreciate the tips.

[@03pontiac]

@@jprice4250 you ever get it installed? How'd it turn out?

Yes. All works like a champ. Installed the camera above the plate, wired the power to the backup lights, ran the wire to the unit and it works great. Been very happy with the unit. It works well. The screen has gone dark on me twice but the system still worked. (Could hear things fine) but it returned to normal the next day. Might have gotten too hot it, it was in the middle of summer when the car was outside all day while I was at work.

Jack, Thanks for uploading this detailed video for this unit. I just recently picked up a '12 civic with a 5-speed manual transmission. This civic of mine still has the factory stereo installed in it. I do have a question that you did address, but I have a question for security reasons. If you do have your car go in for any kind of service in a shop and you do not want prying eyes going through your stereo settings or anything you don't want access to, is there a code you can use to lock out anyone? Not just your email idea, but the whole stereo rendered useless save for you? I do have an iphone and would want the stereo set up on the configuration. Thank you for this video upload. j. l.

One question though, you mention late in the video when you're demonstrating the Android Auto and Apple Carplay, you connect them wired and you mention that it "doesn't automatically connect via bluetooth, you have to do that manually via the bluetooth app". Does that mean that if you want to use Apple Carplay wirelessly that you have to re-pair your phone each time you get in the car? Or did you mean you still have to manually pair the phone as part of the initial setup even though you connected wired?

You just have to pair it as part of the initial setup. It will connect wirelessly automatically.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

You can. My 2012 Civic did not come with an OEM backup camera

[@guangliu8056]

You mention Android Auto, does this work with Apple?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Yes wired and wireless Apple carplay

[@appleheadjackson3524]

This is so nice i can't wait til i get mine installed im so sick of these buttons

[@soloricoo6617]

When I go to the settings to reset my oil change notice, how would I do it on the new system?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Look for vehicle settings app. It's there.

[@kemp2340]

hello, does the sunwoofer that comes with the car work or did you have to install some other interface. What model of stereo is it

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

My car doesnt have a factory subwoofer. I'm sorry, I dont know the answer. You should reach out to Joying directly.

[@dizl0l]

hi, i have civic 2012 with factory subwoofer, did u find the solution ? thanks

[@lecmusicoycantantemexicano]

There is a model that works with subwoofer version.

[@Astros-dz4bx]

hey brother, just got one for my car! was wondering if you're able to respond to any issues I may have! much appreciated.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

I dont work for Joying so cant guarantee anything but if you have a question I can try and help. Its pretty straight forward.

[@gatt619]

How do you get the firmware updates? Is it downloaded from the stereo or do you have to download it onto a USB and then put it on the stereo?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

You download them on to a USB drive and the unit automatically recognizes the update and runs its.

[@gatt619]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone thanks!

[@lionintu]

Hs there been any updates since your stereos manufacture date?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

@@lionintu Yes I believe there has been 2 updates so far.

[@lionintu]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone cool thanks.

Looks like they don't make one for my 2016 Civic Tourer 😢

[@ivanmendoza9048]

Do you have the link to the newer style radio for my 13 si

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Should be this one 2013-2015 CIVIC Android 12 8+128GB: ebay.us/Q3Tnly

[@laylajets]

When you say android, does it also work with iPhones?!

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Yes. Has Apple carplay and Android Auto. It just runs on the Android operating system natively.

[@jaywarrenmarante1032]

How did you get your steering wheel buttons to work? I had mine installed but it's not working. How is the wiring done?

[@jaywarrenmarante1032]

And why is your Factory -> Car Model set to CRV instead of Civic?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It's plug and play. It's set to CRV because that is the canbus settings that works correctly with this car. As long as you connected all of the harness correctly and also double check that the looped wiring coming out of the back of the head unit is plugged into the canbus wire.

[@lionintu]

Did you get it working?

[@harshkaushal84]

I’ve installed in my car but Imid screen is not turning off even the car is off

[@X2AMorris]

Hey did your wheel control work after this

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Yes

[@X2AMorris]

@@JackofAllMasterofNone Do u mind telling me how you did that cuz Im losing mind trying to figure this out

[@joeblow3939]

Look in your armrest. You should have a USB outlet in there.

[@miamyy4]

How much would it cost if I take it to a mechanic and have them install this for me?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

No idea. It's super easy to do yourself.

[@Ultraxfinance]

How did you get it to work with imid? Our imid clock was staying on constantly draining the battery, so we disconnected the canbus now the imid and steering controls are dead. How do we fix this?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

You contact Joying who is responsible for the problem and ask them for a solution. It worked fine on mine

[@OlusegunFelix-fy5ho]

What version did you get? The newest version android 12 or the older android 10?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

10

[@duyanhvu5841]

So with the new head unit, we don't need to use the two 8mm screws anymore, right?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Correct

[@duyanhvu5841]

Do you know how to remap the "source" button on the steering wheel so that it can start/pause music? Now it is switching between apps in my case

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

@@duyanhvu5841 Unfortunately it's not possible. The canbus steering wheel controls cannot be remapped.

[@joliehawkins3377]

I need help. I have the exact same car. I bought a Hikity aftermarket stereo on Amazon. I installed it and the power would not turn on. I placed the factory stereo back in to test and it would not power on. I lost power to my IMID, cigarette lighter port and usb in my console as well. A few days later I found that I had blown a fuse under my hood. I replaced it and the IMID has returned to its normal function, the usb in my console also works but the cigarette lighter still has no power, and the factory unit has power but will not work at all. I can’t find any other blown fuses and I’m dreading having to try and take it to someone.

[@MicRuLerZ]

Check your fuses in the driver's foot well

[@joliehawkins3377]

@@MicRuLerZ I checked all the fuses. I can’t find anything wrong!

Yes

How is it in extreme cold temps? like -40

It's triggered via the canbus unit.

[@seymourbutz6551]

Ideally i want my back up in the small screen

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

If you have a stock backup camera it will stay in the small screen and will not show on the big screen. You have to do additional modifications to make it show on the big screen so it sounds like out of the box it will work perfect for you
