Well since the Garmin seized support, I was thinking why not write an app that just sends the Nav-Data to the HUS. I'm not sure myself that that's even possible but we could try to hook up to Navigation Apps like Google Maps or Waze and trigger events via Tasker to that app to make the HUS display Nav info. This way I could still make my unit usable on with my Android 10.25 Screen.

I've decompiled the basic BMW HUS App which disclosed lots of valuable information, including the HUSProtocol and how its data is being sent. However I've yet have to find out how it sets up the Socket, as only that failed to decompile. However, finding the IP and Port the HUS is listening to is possible through various means.

But I still have to wonder if the idea is even possible to get the maps activity extracted and automatically send over to a custom app that forwards the info into the HUS? I have to admit I know very little about Android programming.
