First off: Sorry if I missed an important step, first time doing this and am totally am aware this easily could be my fault. Anyway...
Hey all,
I just updated my 2016 6 from 51 something (don't remember the exact version) to 70.00.100A. Installation went smoothly and the system works fine on the new firmware.
BEFORE I updated I used Mazda AIO 2.8.3 to install the ID7 autorun/recovery script. I also put the "Dryrun script" on the flash drive so I could make sure it installed successfully. Plugging in the flash drive quickly prompted me with the message:
Obviously I hit install, which seemed to succeed, then pressed the button to restart when promoted. When the system rebooted I quickly got the message:
followed by the window in the previous image, to which I just hit skip since the script was already installed. I assumed the latter was the Dryrun script (since I couldn't find any examples of what it should say other than people noting they confirmed the Dryrun script ran) and was all I needed to see to know I'd be safe to update. I removed the flash drive and then proceeded to update the firmware.
Now that I'm on 70.00.100A it doesn't seem like I can install tweaks. I waited 10 minutes at one point and no message checking the firmware version ever showed up (it showed up near instantly on 51.xx.xxx). If I plug in the flash drive with the ID7 autorun/recovery scripts and Dryrun script on it, I DO still get the prompt to install them as shown in the previous image. However, after hitting yes to install them and rebooting, I do not ever see the "Success" message like I did when I was on 51.xx.xxx.
So the recovery script seems to have sort of worked since I can still run the recovery script installer (unless the installer for the scripts always appears on 70.xx.xxx and just doesn't actually install and looks like it is), but I can't do anything with the AIO compiled files on the same flash drive.
If I missed a step then my bad. I still have to install the AA/Carplay kit and therefore gain access to the CMU anyway so if I have to serial in it isn't a big deal. I do already have a USB to serial cable with Tx and Rx lines (though I'm not sure its the right type).
So, does it look like I will have to use the serial backdoor all things considered? If so, will there be any issues running those commands with the recovery script (sort of) installed?
Thanks for any help. Really looking forward to having OEM AA with some of the quality of life tweaks offered by AIO. >

OK
