So if you need to update your Mazda Connect firmware for your Mazda Miata and other Mazda connect vehicles this video shows you how to do that process. In this video, I update my Miata from firmware 70.00.100 to firmware version 70.00.335C "Echo Fix" update. This update is a single file & doesn't require a fail-safe file like older firmwares.
This is for model years from 2014 to today which covers MAZDA 2, MAZDA 3, MAZDA 6, MAZDA CX-3, CX-5, CX-8, CX-9 and MX-5/Miata/RF. This will not include the 2019 Mazda 3 (BP) or 2020 Mazda CX-30 (DM)!!!
A good & cheap USB drive to use for this:
amzn.to/30p2gEh
70.00.335C Google Drive Folder (North America Only!):
drive.google.com/drive/folder...
Old 31.00.100A Firmware (Only needed if you have version 29.00.000 and below, North America Only!):

Bryce Thomas, you magnificent dude! I spent the better part of an evening researching this, and then I found you, and your hosted Google Drive. 4 years later, you thoroughly helped me. Following your walkthrough, I got my system upgraded in maybe 30 minutes. Sir, Thank you. You made my world a better place this morning.

@danielm8151 2 года назад

This was one of the most complete and helpful DIYs I've encountered. I was able to use the files provided in the comments (still active on Google Docs in July 2022!) and follow his helpful method and notes. Everything went just as he said, including the brief moment once complete when the navigation took a while to properly GPS locate the car again, which just took a short trip around the block. I can now upgrade my 2018 CX-9 with a Carplay hub having the upgraded firmware.

Thank you for hosting the firmware file! I was running the AIO Mazda tweaks version of the firmware and Android Auto was so sketchy and always quit out at the wrong times so I decided to get the official hardware for my 18 GT and needed this update. Although I lost a few things I really liked I decided the official hardware and working Android Auto was worth the trade-off. Everything worked perfectly and this video helped a lot thank you

Thank you so much! I bought my daughter a 2016 Mazda 3 and now she has CarPlay after using your instructions for the firmware update and the other video for the install. I did find videos with easier ways of removing the old hub but I used your videos as well to double check what I was doing. Thank you again, really can’t believe I did it myself. The total cost was $95 for the hub from Amazon and the trim removal tools. The rest of the tools, I already had.

@shemesath 4 месяца назад

I wanted to add for other people that might see this- running the new cables through was a bit complicated but I was able to do it by getting underneath steering column and using a strong flashlight. The only trim pieces I removed were the front vents and the screen (as well as the old hub of course).
