Hi. Can anyone send me the current up to date firmware files so I can upgrade my 2016 ND to Carplay? I know there’s lots of videos showing the installation of the new USB hub but does anyone recommend any particular one that’s good to follow? My dealer wants over 400 quid!!

Pm me for the firmware
I am interested in updating to Android auto, is it possible without additional hardware?
Not if you want to do it the Mazda way
What is the alternative?
There is AIO Tweeks but ive never used it

I have a 2016 ND and just completed the CarPlay firmware and hardware upgrades. However CarPlay does not work. Cables are correctly attached, USB charging works ok from both ports but CarPlay does not start and remains greyed out on the interface. I tried with two iPhones (12 and 15) and different usb cables. I updated my car’s firmware to latest 74… before starting. Any advice to get CarPlay running?
Does it not work with the apple cable?
No, I tried with a white usb-c Apple cable with my iPhone 15 and with a usb to lightning cable with an iPhone 12 and neither activated CarPlay. Charging worked for both as did the connection via the Mazda interface.
This is the kit I bought: eBay.co.uk item n. 317194424726
Is that not the one for Android Auto?
Should work for both CarPlay and Android Auto according to the listing.
