Have you tried my method? I published a YT video here.Hello
I have Kia optima 2017 and I can’t access to engineering mode i tried 5+1 but it doesn’t work
Please help me to find a way and I can’t connect my phone to Apple car play
Did you tried on Storage page? I have put a video from my case here. Let me know did you make it.Hello

I see November updates have started to arrive in Europe for everything except the Gen5W. Hopefully this means something bigger is in store.
I also remember seeing speculation somewhere that the missing wireless on Gen5W units was a contractual problem between Hyundai and TomTom. This seemed odd to me, considering Hyundai/Kia vehicles still use HERE Maps.
But now that Hyundai and TomTom have a new contract since September, I'll hold out hope that we'll get wireless AA and new maps soon. This would be a huge upgrade in Europe, where the current map data beyond road names is very poor.
Hi everyone, hello from Croatia.
I have a 2020 i30 1.5dpi STYLE PLUS with 10.25" nav
Successfully done the latest oficial update via 32GB USB,done the croatian language pack, done the youtube app with AA mods but now I have few questions.
Got even the new engineering mode using 7-3-1 method and 500629 for code.
1.How to enable wireless Android Auto?
2.How to enable USB video while driving (video in motion)?- have few movies on that I play when bored (like Taxi, Fast&Furious etc.)
For now it only shows warning (dont use while driving!) and plays only the sound
3.Why the sound quality on Android Auto is very poor, a lot worse than listening to bluetooth audio or USB music

New update for 10.25 has arrived. Now code for engineering mode is 8 characters long not 6. Does anyone know this code?
I have a Kia Telluride 2022 SX with navigation - I was able to enter Engineering mode by using the following method.
Setup > General Settings > Software Update Screen
Tap left side of "Update" 6 times, right side of "Update" once
Enter code: 27021427
My primary reason for wanting to explore engineering mode, was to see if there was a way to remove the factory DSP tuning and all-pass filters from the car, as well as the limits set on the amp to reduce the volume of certain frequencies when the volume is increased. I could not see any kind of specific setting that correlates, but I did notice there's a "DSP Tuning" file associated with updates.
Now that the software for Infotainment has been blasted wide open, any chance someone can assist me with wiping that file clean, or removing it all together? Happy to do this myself if I can be pointed in the right direction in terms of the applications I'll need to review and modify the code of the firmware update.

Could you please send me your phone number I will send you image by WhatsApp .
But I tried your recommended way it doesn’t work and can’t go on engineering mode .
If my way doesn't work than you have to try others. My type of entering is unique cause I have found nobody that was using it.
And I cannot even change anything cause changes are not saved.

A blog post with all findings is coming soon!1@lukilodz83 Sorry, I am not familiar with Gen4. I guess you can try holding POWER+MAP or POWER+HOME on start and see if anything happens.1Why are you all asking for engineering mode pass?
What do you expect to find there?
In my system (Gen5w EU) nothing usefull there...

Today on the Valentines day we have made a secret go public.
We have been able to gain root access on the Gen5WIDE headunits from europe.
with this hack you can grab and dump the whole system.
extracts info, keys, decrypt files and perhaps create ur own custom fw.
we provide this info for free, so people can share knowledge and new findings.
Please be aware that this is mainly for devs and technical nerds and linux lovers. untill someone perhaps creates a more user friendly hack.
Happy hunting
Gen5W for HKMC root access
Hello guys! I am a bit tired today to explain...

Update on another model thet does not allow the "full engineering menu":
2018 Elantra SEL USA version.
NO: Cannot access the engineering mode that enables app installations (7 taps over 3 points on settings/screensaver).
YES. Can access the engineering mode from Settings/System Info (5 taps left - 1 tab right).
Looking forward to the hero that finds out how to jailbreak these versions!!3
Of course ! Just install Headunit Reloaded (4.6) on the car system.
Set it with your phone name (SSID) used for wifi server, and leave IP blank (auto).
The wifi mode of Headunit will automatically connect to Android Auto if this one is in developer mode and its server mode launched.
Everything can be totally automatic, the phone can stay in the pocket. Android Auto appears on the main screen few seconds after the wifi connnection to the phone.
