nav car sir

Success, thanks again.

OK - I'm confused. I have a 2017 gt350 and the owner.ford website is saying that my SYNC is up to date and "the last confirmed install of an update to your vehicle was on: October 18, 2017."

The site displays:


Am I behind on my updates? Is the link on the first page of this thread the appropriate (and only) update for me?

That's strange that the v2.2 is not showing up for you at least. The link on the first page is v3.0 and it is not an official Ford released one, thats why you aren't seeing it on your ford owner page. First page of this thread has both 2.2 and 3.0 links for you. I personally went from 2.0 to 3.0 without doing any in between.

Wallpaper

Can we finally change the background wallpaper?

thats because ford hasnt released the next update, we all appear "up-to-date" because of this.. this version was provided by volunteers who have internal access to files

Is there a summary available of the fixes in 3.0 vs. the 2.2 official release from Ford?

2.2 was released in December 2016. Does anyone know the ETA for the official release of 3.0?

Shouldn't I at least have access to v2.2 or does my 2017 delivered in 2016 fall somewhere in the middle of the updates?

You'll want to unzip the download, which will extract to a folder. Take what's in THAT folder (one folder, containing five .tar.gz files; two individual files), and move it to the zip drive. Make sure it's the ONLY thing on the drive.

I will be trying my second update on a long drive tomorrow. Seems like keeping the files in the folder, along with the launch file 'autoinstall', at the root level should work. Here is the contents of 'autoinstall.lst':

; Gen 3 - Assembly Update - Nav/NA 17276

[SYNCGen3.0_ALL]
Item1 = HB5T-14G386-TCB
Open1 = SyncMyRide\HB5T-14G386-TCB.tar.gz
Item2 = JR3T-14G391-CD
Open2 = SyncMyRide\JR3T-14G391-CD.tar.gz
Item3 = JR3T-14G423-CA
Open3 = SyncMyRide\JR3T-14G423-CA.tar.gz
Item4 = JR3T-14G381-AJ
Open4 = SyncMyRide\JR3T-14G381-AJ.tar.gz
Item5 = GB5T-14G386-AA
Open5 = SyncMyRide\GB5T-14G386-AA.tar.gz
Options = Delay,AutoInstall

Seems like it is looking for the folder for each tar file.

this isnt rocket science, download the file, insert your usb stick in your pc, go to the update file, right click, select extract all, choose extract all to your usb stick, youll now have 3 different folders on your usb stick, plug the usb into the car, update and enjoy

I know, that method is the most direct, i.e. fewest steps.

'17s all came with v2.0

Ford only released the v2.2 update for v1.0/v1.1 owners.

and 2018 f150s come with 2.3 with literally nothing changed whatsoever

Is it possible to label when only one option is updated?

I presumed that the non-Nav update was also new. I spent 2 hours and repeated attempts to update my Non-Nav to this build... only to discover as I was rereading the end of the thread that apparently, only the Nav version was updated.

Thanks!
