Mazda has the answer...
Hi,
Indeed it is not compatible, and it will only be if Mazda decides to upgrade their system in the MX5 ND. It is a shame, because nowadays, it is a normal feature in most of the cars and the 124 spider it is quite a new model.
I don't know if someone have news on this? Does somebody now if the MX5 is going to have an upgrade of the system soon? :nerd:

Completely agree, but it seems that even 2017 Mazda models will not get CarPlay or Android Auto... therefore we will not get it either in short term perspective.

That is an older video, but yes, it looks like you can do it either way now, that was using version .5.
version .7
1. USB Audio is enabled - to actually use this, you need a separate USB thumb drive in one of the slots, as this is the only way for you to be able to select USB audio in the CMU. Please do not try to use MTP option on your android phone, as it is not going to work.. Also, you need at least one mp3 or any music file in the USB thumb drive (I used http://www.xamuel.com/blank-mp3-files/point1sec.mp3)
2. Since there was a severe case of audio stuttering once for me, I have included an option to disable USB audio and switch back to AUX. You can do this by placing a file called hu_disable_audio_out in the SD CARD (which, of course, means you now need an SD card ). I haven't actually tested this out as USB Audio worked fine at all times except that one instance.
3. Nexus fix provided by @agartner
4. Debug version of the app - to be run from ssh only - download from here . Copy to /data_persist/dev/bin, chmod 755 and run after executing the following command:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data_persist/dev/androidauto/custlib:/jci/lib:/jci/opera/3rdpartylibs/freetype:/usr/lib/imx-mm/audio-codec:/usr/lib/imx-mm/parser:/data_persist/dev/lib:

If it wasn't for the proprietary cable you probably would have seen it by now... There is this, and the Chinese Mazda's are getting it, so maybe there's hope?
