I need posts do DM, but I am a little confused on how many updates I need to do. I have a MAZDA6 2021 NA (Version 74.00.200 NA N) Do I just update with one file as well?
You need to upgrade to 70 first, but then after that you can - though it may all be in the same .up package now - I've seen that both in Reddit and here - so I assume it'll update you to 70 then to 74 in one sweep.
I am in 74.00.200NA, could I just update to the latest version in one update as well? Thanks!

YES
Hi. In the manual it says:
"YOU MUST PURCHASE and INSTALL the TWO GENUINE MAZDA PARTS LAST."
I currently have version 70.00.100eu n and parts purchased in China. Everything works fine including the AAwireless dongle. Is it safe to update and is worth it?

If your setup has already had the parts upgraded with the current firmware version you have, I don't see why not. 🤔 But I would research a little more...
Glad I stumbled on to this forum. I've been searching for the latest firmware to upgrade from 70.00.100 NA N
It's like searching for a unicorn!

Is it possible to download the latest version "directly" somewhere or do I have to write a PM?

Please share the link for Ver. 74.00.324A
I am a new user. commenting on this thread so that i can follow up with firmware updates.
Hello everyone.
I´m also looking for the latest FW for my Mazda 6 2019,
Current firmware is 70.0.200 EU N
Does anybody know if 74.00.324A will allow the touchscreen to work while moving?
I´m also looking for a answer to this question. The navigation button is driving me nuts and AppleCarPlay are clearly not designed for navigation using this method. :(
But fun thing is. If you look at Mazdas owners manual you should be able to enable touch screen while driving?

But i just found this video on YT.

Looks pretty easy. I will go try it out and report back :D
I just tried and sadly it seems to not work if you like me have a firmware of 70.0.00 or above. :(
I just upgraded to 74.0.324A and from my 1 minute testing it seems to work just fine.
CarPlay has become a lot faster and the menu system in general seems to be faster. :)
Has anyone had issues with Factory nav not working after updating their headunit? Updated my wife's car last night to 70.0.0.100 in preparation for version 74 and now it says the car doesn't have built in nav but the dealer can install it. And yes, i put the sd card back in after everything was complete
Hi @ASH8 I'm a new so can't DM you, can you DM me ?

Updated to version 74 and nav works again. Very strange, but glad I didn't screw it up.
Hi @ASH8

Thanks in advance
