You have to do the serial access. See www.mazdatweaks.com/serial for details.

If your FW is 70.00.335 or higher see: www.mazdatweaks.com/id7 as then ID7v2 is necessary. See also separate thread ID7v2.

 

thank you very much !

 

I have V70.335 however aio tweaks talks about update.up file? Does anyone know how or where can I get this update.up file? Also I'm assuming the serial connection and writing the files through Putty process is same as V59 just that there's an additional update.up file besides XX folder, is that right?

 

The required FW update files of .335 or .354 for NA region can be found here.

Read www.mazdatweaks.com/id7 and the ID7v2 thread for the ID7v2 process, which is necessary at .335

It is a little different from the old ID7 process of FW 59. Wiring is the same. You need to do a FW update to .335 or .354 (not .367) and at the end paste the commands (do not restart the car/mzd before pasting the commands).

 

Thanks for your quick reply @tristan.

One last question if you can answer it for me before I roll with making those updates is :

When the fw update is finished, instruction says I need to copy and paste certain command into putty console. However the instructions listed on v59 version related thread states three more additional steps:

1. Reboot Mazda CMU by holding the Nav + Mute button for 10+ seconds.
2. Input user and push Enter
3. Input jci and push Enter

Do I need to perform these 3 steps on v70.335+ serial connection workflow or not? Also the link you've given for fw file download doesn't have v354 instead it has 352B, is it safe to assume that updating fw to 352B will cause no harm or it's an untested version of the fw with aio tweaks.

 

No, you do not need to erform these 3 steps - you should not! Do not reboot the CMU/MZD after the FW update is done. 1st paste the commands in Putty! If you reboot before pasting the commands, you have to do the FW update again!

Sorry, then I mixed .354 and .352 up. It is .352. And I installed some tweaks from AIO without a problem to .352 EU.
But do not update to .367 NA, as with that one ID7v2 does not work.

 

Thanks @tristan

You're the man! Happy 4th of July to you.

 

Hey Tristan,

So I gave it a shot but could never get it to work, once the serial connection is established, it goes on a loop, with "Login timed after 60 sec" message and then it repeats the same command. When you did the same steps, do you recall how much time it took for the update?

What I did so far is after establishing the serial connection, I'm launching putty/SecureCRT and turn the car into acc mode and the text starts flying by but going by the logs as it gets in a loop and can't move past certain stage, I'm assuming there are one of the 2 things going wrong, for some reason it's not able to login into CMU or my wiring is gone. However if my wiring is wrong which I'm almost certain is not, I shouldn't see the messages writing into CMU

I'm on v70.335c nan

 

If I were you, I would check if my cables are connected correctly: Do not go to ACC (ACC/IGN/Engine off), as then the text is flying by slower. Connect via putty. Hit enter. You should be requested for username/password. If that is not happening, your TX wire is not connected corretly, as no input is possible.

Are you sticking to www.mazdatweaks.com/id7 ? Only try to paste ID7v2 commands in putty directly after you did a FW update.

 

See the ID7v2 thread for more details and photos how it looks like in putty:

ID7 Recovery v2

Hi everyone, Recently a new version of he infotainment system FW v70.00.335-C NA was found to have as part of its update process a highly unnecessary, destructive little script called "neutralizeid7" which DIRECTLY TARGETS ITS USERS BY PREFORMING THE UNDESIRABLE ACTION OF REMOVING THE RECOVERY...

www.mazda3revolution.com

ID7v2 installation after entering the commands took about 3 minutes I guess. Maximum.

 

Hey Tristan! Update from my end, managed to install the updates and AIO tweaks worked too. However, couldn't get wireless android auto to work, just wondering have you face similar audio issues while trying to use wireless android auto?

 

Hi Simplysid,
Sorry to ask on this old comment. Simple question:
What was the issue/how you managed to install the aio tweak?
As I am facing now the same that you had.

Thanks & best regards

 

I have the new hardware (usb hub+2cables) and use the official mazda android auto with FW 70, which does not support wireless AA.

As far as I know, the AIO Android Auto Tweak does not work properly with any FW 70.

2-3 years back when I used AIO AA, you had to enable developer mode in the AA App at your mobile to enable wirless connection for AA at FW 55, 56 or 59. Recommended by some people for using AIO AA or AA True Go 1.14 (user project), is 59.00.502.

 

Honestly this is the only reason why I want to install this tweak on my car.

Looks like wireless aa connection is possible on my version 59?

My phone is note 9 with aa built-in. I can either do usb or wireless connection. What version tweak should I install? I seem to always see this tru go version.

 

Hi all, I have v 7.00.335 and I've read 99.999999% of all the threads and cant find a solution for "incorrect password". Yes if I hold "enter" down I do get password in the screen. If i type or copy "user" and press enter I get a request for "password" when I copy or past "jci" and press enter the response is "incorrect password"...any ideas?

 

sorry I'll try that again

Try: cmu/jci instead of user/jci

Have you done the ID7v2 process, which is necessary for .335 and described here:

ID7 Recovery v2

All-in-one installer/uninstaller for many available Mazda MZD Infotainment System tweaks.

mazdatweaks.com

The ID7 process does not work for .335 anymore.

 

Hi thanks for the reply. I'm using ID7 V2 . AIO 2.8.6. The issue i'm having is with the initial login, I've tried user/jci cmu/jci and even jci/jci with PuTTY on a windows 7 laptop and a window 10 laptop. I copy and paste using the right click button followed by enter for every step. The response I get is either "login timed out" or "incorrect password". I'm not comfortable with the latency when pasting user name and password, could this be the issue, I'm connected at 115200 8, 1, n with no flow control.

 

Hi,

I hope I post in the right topic.

I've been using AIO tweaks for about two years in my Mazda CX3 with V 59.00.502 software version and everything was perfect.

Last time I had the periodic maintenance, my dealer updated the software to 70.00.367 version so AIO tweaks are no longer working.

Is it possible to downgrade from 70.00.367 version to the old 59.00.502 using the software and the instruction found on HiDrive ?

Thank you for your reply.

Sorry for my poor English speaking

 

At my bench (CMU not in car) a downgrade from .367 was possible. But we also have a report of a failed downgrade from .367 (CMU was in the car) - see this post and the following: ID7 Recovery v2 - if you decide to try it, please let us know the result.

 

Thank you very much for your reply.

The post you've indicated is a bit frightening so I hesitate to try a downgrade. I suppose that my dealer wouldn't be vey happy if I bring back my car with a bricked CMU ...

 

Your dealer would be happy, as he then can charge you labor + a new CMU, as the dealers do not repair CMUs - they just exchange them.
