Same for me. I believe the options are to downgrade to 2.2/2.3 then upgrade to the official version, or to wait for six or seven years for version 3.1 to arrive.
I do have the files and instructions to downgrade, but everything is working fine at the moment, so I’ll probably leave things alone for now.

I installed 3.0 build 18025 over 3.0 build 17126 with no problems at all.
My install only replaced the core operating version, and nothing else - maybe this is why I was able to update where some of you can't?
The file JR3T-14G381-AL.tar.gz is the core file, the other two are tiny files - one of which creates the XML install report which can be uploaded to Ford if you want to. Not sure what the 2nd small file does.
; Gen 3 - Assembly Update - 3.0.18025
[SYNCGen3.0_ALL]
Item1 = HB5T-14G386-TCB
Open1 = SyncMyRide\HB5T-14G386-TCB.tar.gz
Item2 = JR3T-14G381-AL
Open2 = SyncMyRide\JR3T-14G381-AL.tar.gz
Item3 = GB5T-14G386-AA
Open3 = SyncMyRide\GB5T-14G386-AA.tar.gz
Options = Delay,AutoInstall

One reason some want to use the official 18025 is that it has 8 files (see autoinstall below), at least the 2016 with NAV version does. The leaked 18025 I installed before just had 3. Later someone posted installs with a few more files. But even those files are newer in the official download I got from owners.ford.com

the breakdown of that goes like this: if you've done the previous unofficial 3.0.17276 they already came with the files that come in the official 18025, which are gracenotes and voice files, some other small files in there are about checksum, generate xml, check if its nav, etc,.

How I went from 17194 to 18025 WITH NAVIGATION
I am doing this on a Mac, so here are a few hints that will help you along:
-Do NOT have your ZIP files open after downloading, in Safari- Safari>Preferences>General Tab>Open "safe" files after downloading (you do NOT want that box checked)
-Format your Memory Stick BEFORE you load files: Disk Utility>Select your External Drive>Click Erase (at top)>Select ExFAT
I had to find 2.2 NAV VERSION and "downgrade" my system, I was able to find it here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2bkfl9fc07ymc5z/SYNC3%20NAV%20V1%20TO%20V22.zip?dl=0
***I am told this is the NON-NAV Version of 2.2 but I did NOT download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YcDQzAaaVbvAnCH-PkzeGA2rsAXNBmfD/view ***
When you open this ZIP file you want to load autoinstall.lst and SyncMyRide Folder (this has sub files). The ZIP file has a "read me" file so take a look at that.
Plug USB into car and across the top of the screen it read "Updating System Software..." Let it do it's thing until it prompts you to remove the USB
After install I had to shut the car down for a little, I even locked the door to get the system to shut down.
Started up and checked, it was 2.2
When that was completed I formatted the USB again and loaded the Official Ford Update per the instructions on the Ford site.
A few things I noticed:
-It will tell you the install is complete....wait....its NOT done....the screen will cycle off but your music will keep playing..."Updating System Software..." will be displayed again.
-You will get a prompt to remove USB that is when its really done
-I had to cycle the car off to get the system to show an update from 2.2
-When I first started up in 3.0 my 911 was lost, the car played that message over the speakers.
-I now had a setting for seats, and the driver seat had a selection for "massage" nothing worked when I attempted to use this feature. Phone was inside so I didn't get a photo. Maybe someone else can?
-Each tab alone the bottom was its own color, radio was RED, Climate was BLUE, Settings was Purple....strange
-Also in this initial start up my navigation was lost, didn't even have the tab at the bottom
-Cycle off....Ford logo appeared and not the Mustang Logo
-Cycle on (2nd time) Mustang logo appeared and lost the seat massage option (didn't work anyway) and gained navigation back, 911 still missing.
I fooled with it a little more but things seem to be okay besides losing my 911
Hope this helps.

Sounds like the 2.2 file you have will work with 2017 Mustangs. I wonder if it will work with 2016 Mustang too? I remember reading somewhere that the files were different in those old versions :shrug:

I didn't even know that was a thing. The guy that provided the link claims that it worked on his 2016 with NAV.....wasn't a Mustang.

Made me check. WMA files, too.
This is something I missed. One of those things you just expect and when it's not there, you wonder why. Like my ATS that skips to a random song instead of the previous one if you hit back in shuffle mode.
