  1. NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    Yup 2.3 is available for my 2017 Explorer. Just downloaded it, 1.6GB file.
  2. NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    Sometimes Sync and AA don't work the first time I plug in my phone. A quick unplug of the USB, wait a few seconds, and then plugging it back in works for me.
  3. SYNC 3 swap, It's all in here

    Whoa, calm down, I did my setup with that part number but I also mentioned you could use an old floppy disk drive connector. You could have easily PM'd me and asked me to edit my post or basically anything besides what you just did. I was one of the earliests to do the MFT to Sync 3 swaps so I...
  4. SYNC 3 swap, It's all in here

    Ahh gotcha, you bought it as a kit. I parted mine out; much bigger pain but not too bad.
  5. SYNC 3 swap, It's all in here

    You need the WPT1239 pigtail (or a simple old floppy disk drive connector) spliced into the 2015's old hub connector as outlined in the fusion post a user posted above in order to get the new hub to work. The 2015 connector is mich bigger and the hub is not a direct swap (whereas Sync 3 itself is).
  6. Smartlink Release?

    I haven't seen any info on it since February but it is supposed to be available at dealers this summer. Ford isn't exactly the best at sticking to schedules so we will see if it happens before end of Summer.
  7. 2015 Premium Sync upgrade options

    I will link you to the info I used in order to do the install (One I had the equipment. First is a video from OEMRadio (Jesse) who sells the Sync 3 upgrades (or used to, I don't think he is on here very much anymore). The video details a Base upgrade to Sync 3 but it is pretty identical to...
  8. Anyone selling a Sync 3 head unit?

    I just used my brackets off of my Sync 2 MFT module
  9. Waze for Android Auto (Beta) is out

    It is a stripped down App so not fully featured but I haven't run into anything that I needed that it didn't have. Is there anything in particular you would like me to test or look for?
  10. 2015 Premium Sync upgrade options

    I looked at all my optionsfor my 2015 Mustang GT Vert premium and ultimately decided the Sync3 upgrade was the way to go. I bought my unit programmed with my VIN and install was actually a breeze. Pricey for sure but it is a direct plugin and you retain all of your features. For Apple Carplay it...
  11. NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    So far I am impressed with the Waze AA beta and haven't run into any bugs (yet). It is a stripped down version of the Waze app but I haven't run into any limitations for my purposes.
  12. NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    Uncheck Enable Automatic Launch under Bluetooth for Devices in Pandora's Advanced settings. I also switch to Google Play or one of the other music services after listening to Pandora or before I get out of the car out of habit and to keep it from Auto starting. I haven't had an issue since...
  13. Waze for Android Auto (Beta) is out

    I am in the Waze Beta and have been using it for 2 days now. So far it feels like it could be released (no bugs that I have run into) but I haven't really thrown it through it's paces. Point being, I wouldn't imagine this would be a long Beta. Not sure about the iOS side..
  14. NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

    I think the animosity is two fold, first being that it is Apple and some have issues with them as a whole (which I do not understand). The second being that, like all first generation things, when first released Apple Maps had some legitimate issues. All of these issues seem to have been fixed...
  15. Sync swap

    There are two Sync3 versions, Nav and Non-Nav
  16. HOW TO: Add MyFord Touch/Sync 3 to base model S550

    No that is a company which used to be OEM Auto Parts Co, not Jesse aka OEMRadio
  17. HOW TO: Add MyFord Touch/Sync 3 to base model S550

    The dual hub works but it disables the front USB port because there is not a connector for that cable.
  18. HOW TO: Add MyFord Touch/Sync 3 to base model S550

    You will need a Sync 3 unit programmed with your VIN. Easy to buy but expensive; once in hand the swqp is straightforward and plugs right in. In order to get Android Auto you would then need to update the Sync 3 unit to 2.x (I am going to assume it would come with it though). If you need CarPlay...
  19. HOW TO: Add MyFord Touch/Sync 3 to base model S550

    No, this is for Sync 3 (bigger screen) vehicles only.
  20. HOW TO: Add MyFord Touch/Sync 3 to base model S550

    I was having that issue but I unchecked an option in Pandora app to allow bluetooth to launch Pandora (or something like that). This wasn't doimg the trick either so I launched Google Music on my Android Auto and didn't tune into anything on Pandora. Ever since Pandora has been nice and quiet.
