Mazda Connect (New Infotainment System)

1) how do I (or can I) zoom in or move the HD Traffic App map? My home location is at the very bottom of the displayed map...

see here - sometimes questions/discussions in a more specific subforum . . . sometimes not

Thank you for replies... Regarding the zoom, I am referring to the HD Traffic map not the Nav map, and while I see how to use the knob to go up and down, what I really want is to make the center of the display map different (my location is at the very bottom so I can't see traffic south of my location) and to zoom in on the traffic map (I live near lots of freeways so zooming in would be helpful).

Found the old fashion stick reset for the Trip odometer, yeah! One new question please (thank you for indulging me, hopefully you all are as disappointed in the manual as I am)... Trick to getting the phone to work thru the Bluetooth? It connects, and downloads contacts but won't make a phone call. And if I call on the handset and transfer audio to car, either using car menu or via phone, it does not work. Argh.

I have yet to find a way to move around that map. It's utterly useless without being able to zoom in.

Enhanced Compass with Map & POI

Howdy,

I am working on an enhancement to the Compass app for those who don't want to spend the extra money on the SD-Card or don't really like the nav system. It's not a full fledge nav system right now but it's slowly getting there.

The main thread is over at the Mazda3 forums at http://mazda3revolution.com/forums/...hanced-compass-application-mazda-connect.html

However here is some stuff to look at. It's deployed to my 2016 M6 and works great so far.

It will be open source and we are working on a deployment script for easy installation.

Let me know your thoughts.
