Has anybody tried rooting the HU & installing apps using the methods below?

I have a query regarding the app installation itself. The main reason I want to install apps is because I want to use offline GPS apps like HERE we go, Sygic or Google maps offline map. My queries are:
1) I am using Civic TC (no Garmin), & wondering if there is built in GPS on TC, & if I can install the above apps & using the built in GPS?
2) If any of you have been successful in installing the above three offline GPS apps, can you inform how & where you put the offline maps themselves? The above guides just inform how to install app APK but not additional files

Thank you

I can suggest another temporary solution, how about just use mirror link? At least you will not have any trouble setting up offline map on any app. Read my previous post on how to by pass without y-cable installation or rooting HU, and it is reversible.

IMO:
Rooting the device and and fiddling with the HU it's kind of troublesome, especially there are reports of delay in reverse camera and installed app all launch at start-up. Our HU android is kinda lousy, running on 4.2.2 then u have the worry about apps that doesn't run on 4.2.2  rclxub.gif

Finally succeeded in rooting the head unit. Installed Sygic offline GPS navigation as my first app. The only drawback is when the voice navigation starts, it takes over from other Audio like radio etc that is on at that moment, & doesn't revert. Anybody knows how to resolve this? Tq
