sweet! i just did it too. to confirm, android auto needs the phone plugged in to work right? i wasnt able to use the android auto app on the car over bluetooth
At first, this didn't work for me. I watched the video again to see what I missed. Turns out I didn't drop my USB stick even once before opening/closing doors.
Has your car got an aux port? My car is Mazda 3 2014 and it has not AUX port. Is this android auto application will work in my car? Is it working with bluetooth?
Hi from Spain and thanks for the video and explanations. I have just bought my new mazda cx5 with 59.00.504 as OS version of mazda connect . is there any way to install the AA in my device without changing nothing in the cables?? I mean, is there any chance to avoid the usb limitation of this mazda connect version?? Thanks a lot.
Seriously, what is wrong with Mazda??? Why can't they release AA and CarPlay to Mazda owners who has been anxious to get this in their cars? They know their own system is not ideal at all. We have to revert to generous and helpful people like this guy to McGyver our car. Very annoyed Mazda is not saying anything.
IMO, Mazda Connect is better than AA and Carplay. The only thing I like better about AA is the fact you can use Google Maps instead of buying a NAV chip
My 2016 Mazda CX-5 has nav and its messed up. It loses track of the current location all the time. I've had it to the dealer six times so far and it's still doesn't work right. I'm taking it back next week for another attempt at a fix and if that doesn't work I may be installing this. Complete BS.
Will this work on my go cart? Can I download the files onto my kettle, as I don't have a PC? If I bought a 1953 Toyota could I get it to work? Please explain how an apple might work - do I eat it raw or cook it? Have you always had problems with doors? And cameras? And holding a USB stick? Have you considered treatment? Have I now exhausted the list of stupid questions? No, I haven't (see below).
I did the installation (in CX-5 2016) of the 2 .zip in the link ("AndroidAuto_v0.91B" and "AndroidAuto_ButtonPatch") and I had 2 issues... 1. A small yellow box with some letters and numbers displayed on the bottom right of the screen of my car, from the time I turn it on, (I mean that even when not running AndroidAuto App) 2. No sound. If I play music for example spotify, not heard anything turning up the volume with physical volume car button) Or if I use navigation, you hear no indication.
I'm highly offended by that flashdrive treatment 😂 but this should work in all Mazdas till they make it standard probably later this summer if they haven't already. Great vid dude.
Is there no physical installation needed? I have an appointment for next week at the mazda dealership to get this updated. They said it takes 2-3 hours and will cost 400 bucks. Also...mine is a 2014 Mazda3. What year is the car in the video?
the knobs and physical buttons don't work anymore for some reason, only the volume knob. i can only control my infotainment system through the touchscreen. did i do something wrong?
please help. I've followed your video step by step. pull the USB out. it rebooted and now the screen is stuck of the mazda emblem. what would I have to do?
I have a 2019 Sport CX5. Does this mean I don't have to change the USB port and the wirings? I could just install this and i can use android auto right away?
Got this working, looking good.. but... how about the audio, how do you get the normal radio to shut up and let the AA audio take over? Only way I have found out how to get AA Audio to be heard, is to put in USB drive also with mp3 audio, and pause the playback there.. but kind of silly way, any other better way of doing this?
can i install this on a 2016 cx9 and do u sell the thumbdrive pre installed??iam not a tech person at all thanks also does it show google satelite option on the nav also or no???
hello, mytechliving . He was investigating how to install Android Auto and reach your video. But I have a question , I have a Mazda 3 Model 2015 and would like to know whether the installation and operation is the same. Thank you
Hey man, thanks for the tutorial. After install,its was working fine.. for some reason i just factory reset my car .. now its showing only mazda logo .. how to reset to stock? please help
Will this work on a CX-9 2017 or 18.....I watched a video and it shows that you actually have to buy parts and route wires along the center console...is that just a money making scam
hello ... I will receive my new mazda 3 in 5 days, the 2017 version normally! Is it working on this model? (I do not know the version of the system yet)
Because of the mazda updates my mazda3 doesn't have the WiFi option. Will this hinder me from installing android auto or the functionality of its other features
Mazda OS version is 55.00.753 NA N. However, my phone's google play service's version is 9.2.56. So, even if everything installed correctly, i still woulnd't be able to use this, is that so?
If I have a nexus 6p fully updated with the latest Android auto will this work? I tried and got the Android auto installed on the car. But when I run with my phone connected, I get an error on the application in my phone that the car doesn't satisfy security features or something.
Just wondering if, for optimal results, it is necessary for me to throw the thumb drive on the ground 6-8 times on my way to the car? Does it help compress the files? I don't want to mess things up by, say, putting it in my pocket and enthusiastically sprinting to my car thus ensuring it gets there fast and without bumps. If this is a needed step I will pause to throw it on the floor, do something with my now extremely more free hand, and then retrieve it.
Wow... That was quick (that's what she said). I don't have the car as of yet but should I make a backup on a separate USB or is it possible to flash it back to stock from the infotainment system? I have played around a fair bit with ROMs on android phones but not played so much with car's software (2001 BMW 13th owner ftw *cry*)
Nice, thank you. Guess I can handle myself from onward here. The CX3 will be my first ever car that was not second (or 20) hand and android auto seem like a very good feature to have onboard. Great video and yeah... I subbed ;)
After install, everything good except when I select Android Auto from the Home Screen I get the message that it is not connected to a phone. What am I doing wrong? I've installed Android Auto App and it's connected. Thanks.
The app seems to install, and starts up. My phone also seems to indicate that Android Auto is detected. But the Mazda screen just doesn't progres and gives what looks like some standard output logs.
+mytechliving The rest of the CMU is fine. I can go back to the main menu and use the rest of the apps. It's Android Auto which fails to load. Do I need to install anything on my phone? The last lines of the "error trace" say: hu_app_recv_process() iret: -1 Error in read... END END
+mytechliving Could be. I'm on a Nexus 4 (so quite old), with Marshmallow - which I flashed myself since it's not supported for the model. But I also noticed Android Auto is not available in all countries, so that might be a readon why. Malta wasn't on the list.
So I installed this on my Mazda it works up to a point where I get a notification on my phone, the system freezes, it "disconnects" from the car and freezes me out of the whole system. I have to shut the car off to be able to use the system again
Hello Friend, I installed the program today and it worked perfectly for me, after a short time the entertainment screen of the Mazda 3 does not work, it got stuck, it does not allow you to do anything or select any option.
In my 2017 Mazda 6 Android Auto only did work the first startup after that it dit crash and nothing dit workt anymore , i had to turn the car of and disconect the smartphone. after i uninstalt android auto the rest of the tweeks workt.
i have an issue with calling through AA. Every time i try to call or get a phone call it transfers to the phone and refuses to transfer over to the car. Any help would be appreciated.
As of 30 minutes ago, the 2017 Mazda 3 I bought today is rocking Android Auto. Thank you for this video!

So, did it, finally, work?
😂😂😂😂
HAHAHAHA :D
Hahahaha u cracked me up bro
You make the best usb drive carrying videos.
dude lol that was so epic lol
wow it runs so smoothly...if I ever buy a mazda I'll try it out...the thing I love most about android stuff is you can manually tweak them
Hello, from which page can I download the application to later decompress my USB? Thank you
Thanks so much man! works perfectly. I installed it on...
Car: 2016 Mazda Mx-5; OS: 56.00.230 4A N
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge; Android 6.0
Same car as mine❤, different Android phone though.💔
Has your car got an aux port? My car is Mazda 3 2014 and it has not AUX port. Is this android auto application will work in my car? Is it working with bluetooth?
Hello, I wonder where did you download the android auto files
I was waiting for somebody to make a tutorial. Thanks alot. Good video will try once I get home.
I've been told by Mazda that updating the software is not enough, that the USB port needs to be replaced for a more powerful one, true?
@@PatrickLipp I'm going to buy a brand new 2019 Mazda CX-3. Will I be able to install AA on it?
@@PatrickLipp yeah, yet they quote 400 bucks, what a rip off :)

Alex L. in my country, they are gonna release a SD card with Android auto in a couple months.

So, we all know MacGyver then...
Which warranty would this break?
Does installing android auto replace the standard infotainment system or is it only active when you connect with your phone?
Hi there ! Where’s the link for android auto thing you downloaded to The thumb drive? Trying to it on my CX-5 2016

the scene where you take the USB stick to the car quite funny :) thanks, really appreciate it
hey will this work with 2016 mazda 6?
Mazda is working on adding android Apple play soon, this guy made it look easy so I think Mazda can do this.
