Just a big thank you to @Candurin for his assistance. I followed the instructions on various youtube videos and everything went smoothly.

It needs to be said. I’m providing these firmwares as part of my hobby. I have a real job, a wife and kids and travel extensively for work.

Do NOT ask me at 11:30pm my local time and then follow up 21 minutes later inquiring why I haven’t sent it yet. Not too mention, when you don't provide all the information I need to get you the right files (this particular user did not provide the region they needed). Sometimes folks just want to go to bed.

I won’t shame this person, but come on! I don’t mind doing all of this work (I provide firmware for 20+ users per day), but please keep in mind, I do this because I enjoy it. I don’t want to get to the stage where it’s no longer fun.

Well said @Candurin...If you're having any issues here with someone, please do let me know. We're all here to help each other and do so in a friendly way, that's how all this is able to work, when someone tries to disrupt that, well they're breaking Site Rules and may end up permanently banned.

@sm1ke If possible, could you update the original post to remind people that Candurin is doing this in his free time to help the community and that being less than patient and friendly is not appreciated by anyone here and that we have Site Rules and they are enforced!

I just did the update, thanks @Candurin.
Do any of you recommend a custom CarPlay / Android Auto adapter?
There are so many options on Amazon and AliExpress…
Any models you’d recommend — or ones I should avoid?

When it comes to the 2024 CX-5 GT does anyone have the changelog from the factory installed firmware to the one called out in this thread?
Just wondering if I should update or not (if it's broke don't fix, unless improvements are done)

I don't remember the name, but I think if you do a search within this thread, someone may have mentioned it. Search for "wireless carplay" or something along those lines. And if that doesn't work, go to the CX-5 Infotainment subforum and search for it within that forum. I know some options have been discussed by our CX-5 community.
