I'm assuming you've never updated it since new, and you are running on the four year old version.I am finally getting the firmware update on my CX 5 2016 GT tomorrow. My goal is to get it to read my iPhone so I can play my songs from my QoBuz app via USB instead of Bluetooth. Think this may help? It's all I care about, why I'm not interested in Car Play.
Updating the software only will not give you android auto or Apple carplay. You need the new USB port like the one here. You need to find the right one compatible with your vehicle.My Mazda 2 (2020) current firmware version is 70.00.335 4A N but cannot connect Android. So is there any solution to update so that I can use Android Connect? I am from Thailand. So please suggest me.
Yes, the update speeds things up. the desplay even looks sharper. But, still cannot read my music files on Qobuz via USB. I get the "no readable files" or something like that. Would need to get apple car play. But, at $475 for a dealer install, just not worth it.I'm assuming you've never updated it since new, and you are running on the four year old version.
It should help a lot.
Keep us posted.
Downloading this firmware update is so slow, it's almost like they don't want you to have it.
LOL. I did this a couple of weeks ago and I have the same opinion, but it seems that the navigation SD card upgraded successfully.Also....OMG the Mazda Toolbox used to update the navigation sd card is a POS. Not sure I trust it.
70.00.355*Anyone know if there is a way to enable touch screen feature on the infotainment screen without doing the mazda aio tweak? Im currently running FW Ver 70.00.3
I was at .335 and went to .367A thinking the touchscreen while driving would be enabled again but it didn't work at least in Apple Carplay. Has anyone else's touchscreen get re-enabled? I believe they did this for safety but even my GMC infotainment which is newer I am able to touch the screen to make changes.70.00.355*
