CX-5 Carplay / Android Auto won't show up?

[escape75]

I just bought a used 2016.5 with 50k kilometers and my Infotainment came with 55.00.753, so first thing I did was get into the test screen then 11, and disabled the touch screen restrictions.

Update: I thought it was a 2016.5 since it was purchased in March 2016, but the manufacture date is 05/2015 so it's a 2016.

I assume it's a 2016.5 and not 2016 since there's no buttons on the sides of the infotainment...

Afterwards I updated to 70.00.100 and then 70.00.367 and it looks like the bypass is still in place...However I see no changes in the menus, I'm assuming once I install the new USB module it will show up?

Yes. The apps will popup only after the new hub is connected.

Perfect, thanks for the confirmation

Oh, damn brother. Should have come here first. There's a whole bunch of tweaks you missed out on. That was a gift getting .55 on your radio.

I've read all of that, I think, but I didn't really want to modify things excessively

I did disable the speed restricted touch screen, which stuck after the 70.00.367 update,
and I'm probably going to install the Android Auto / Carplay, although for now I've ordered
a couple releases older navigation SD card from Amazon (can be updated), it was only $50.

I think if the unit came with 55.x then one can always roll back from 70.x, if I'm not mistaken.
