TWO Types of Gen 7 'HOME SCREENS' for .kwi FIRMWARE SHOWN ABOVE, the Style Depends on Model and Version Screen Size.

Be Advised I will No Longer offer Any Support to Mazda Owners who Do Not obtain these Genuine Mazda Firmware Files from Me.

If you Download from YouTube or Other Links then Do Not ask for any help from me if or when it goes bad. Most of the other 'suppliers' do not offer any Support or include Full Instructions and or are issuing the wrong files for your Country or car.
I am simply not prepared to waste my time when some of you are impatient and or cannot wait for my reply(s).

Most PC Browsers (Google Chrome or MS Edge) offer Translation from a drop down, top far right.


WARNING: DO NOT USE ANY SMART PHONE TO DOWNLOAD FIRMWARE AND INSTALL OF FIRMWARE ONTO USB FLASH DRIVE.... ONLY USE A WINDOWS 11 PC - LAPTOP.

NOTE: IF I ASK YOU FOR YOUR CARS FULL VIN DETAIL IT IS BECAUSE IT IS NEEDED,
I DO NOT KEEP YOUR VIN.


CONNECT UPDATE FIRMWARE 7th Gen from 2019~ onward, ONLY Message me for your private download link, Include your Mazda's Model Year + your Country, Must READ Below.

Image


NOTE: ONE CAN NOT INSTALL Any GEN 7 FIRMWARE IN A CAR MEANT FOR A DIFFERENT COUNTRY.

Example, To Install any 4A** into a NA** or an EU**, Mazda Connect systems will NEVER Permit any change of Country or Region.

ALSO NOTE: YOU CAN NOT CHANGE or SWAP COMPLETE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEMS.
ALL EXPORT Mazda 3 USE the 7th (or old 6th) GENERATION MAZDA CONNECT.
7th Gen MAZDA HOME SCREEN Above has White Text on Black Screen.

6th Gen MAZDA HOME SCREEN has the Red Select Icons on Black Screen and IS NOT COMPATIBLE for Gen 7 Mazda's.

@ MEANS this is the "Final or LAST" Update made by Mazda for this Model Mazda.

No, I do not have Changelogs for every Update Change as they are not always issued.

YES, I CAN SUPPLY YOU ONE (1) OF THE ABOVE .kwi FILES TO UPDATE YOUR MAZDA CONNECT, BUT IF YOUR CAR MODEL ALREADY HAS A HIGHER NUMBER (11000, 10028, 10047, etc) THEN I CAN NOT HELP YOU AS YOU CAN ONLY INSTALL A HIGHER VERSION THAN WHAT IS ALREADY PRESENT IN YOUR MAZDA.
NOTE THE VERSIONS: LIKE NA01, NA05, EU02, EU03, RU11, 4A01, HK01, JP01, AS THESE ARE FOR SPECIFIC COUNTRY and REGIONS Only, YOU CAN NOT MIX or CHANGE COUNTRY and MODEL TYPE from your cars ORIGINAL FACTORY INSTALL.


I WILL ONLY REPLY TO A PRIVATE MESSAGE, DO NOT ASK ME IN THIS THREAD.
I CAN NOT COACH YOU ON HOW TO UPDATE IF YOU DO NOT POSSESS OWN ABILITY TO DO SO...THE VERY EASY TO DO INSTRUCTIONS are INCLUDED within DOWNLOAD.

* NOTE:
File Versions Above are ONLY for all new Mazda 3 (BP) and CX-30 (DM), MX-30 (DR), 2021~ CX-5 (KF), CX-9 (TC), CX-50 (VA), CX-60 (KH), CX-80 (KL), CX-70 (KJ) and CX-90 (KK) with the Home Screen Pictured Above.

You can ONLY Use the Correct Firmware for your Region and Car Model and or Engine Type.

NEWS: On page 20 of this thread (my Browser) is a long list of FAQs for latest ''MAZDA CONNECTED SERVICES'' and explanation in regard to the MyMazda App version 6.0.0 or higher for your Phone, INCLUDING REMOTE STARTING OF CAR (for Auto Trans Models Only)...MODEL MUST HAVE FACTORY DELIVERED TCU and Mobile Data Access through your Telco, Not for all Models and or all Countries.
SEPARATE TCU Driver MUST ALSO BE UPDATED.
