Hi

Is it possible that I've disabled the USB read function?

At first, I thought I was using the wrong USB cable after the activation process, and I tried about 10 of them and two phones - neither the radio recognized the phones nor the phone recognized the radio.

I dug into the USB port and checked its number: 5Q0 035 726 M (black port) - it should support Android Auto.

Then I decided to connect a USB flash drive - the radio doesn't recognize it :/

It worked before - I changed the station logos to color ones.

It is not common problem, try hard reset of multimedia with long press power button until logo show up. If still not working, try reset to factory settings whole unit.

And last step would be to check with diagnostic tool for faults or posssible wrong coding/adaptations.

All factory settings were restored as a precautionary measure upon first startup after activation.

Hard resetting the unit didn't help.

What diagnostic tools are you talking about?

Maybe I should try uploading the original .bin file back?

You can write original .bin but it would be very very weird if that causes problem with usb. I never heard of that kind of problem after activation fec.

EDIT:

Maybe you just didn't pluged in HSD cable connectotr properly in the unit when you put back unit in car after activation?

Sure. Unfortunately, I don't have any of those.

I'll try replacing the USB port with the 5Q0035726E, along with the cables. According to reviews, the M version didn't work with the iPhone. One of the phones also displayed a slow charging warning (Nothing Phone 2A).

If I can't fix it myself, I'll have someone else diagnose it.
