NEW SYNC 3.0 Build 20204 Nav Android Auto/Apple Carplay

XDsm said:

Anyone else's album artwork and Gracenotes not working? Mine stopped working the early 2.2 release and now that I updated to 3.0 it is still not working. I did the master reset beforehand and I even tried doing it again after and then re-doing the update.

my album art has never been affected through all the updates

Was on build v3.0 build 17194 previously. Updated to 17276 successfully but now my Gracenote is gone. Atleast I hope this build fixes my BT random disconnect issues I have been having since v2.2. I have an android Galaxy S8+ and Note 8.

some people lost GN version during 17194, for what region was yours? (theres EU Gracenotes, NA gracenotes)

This afternoon I downloaded the zip file and extracted to a formatted USB key. Plugged it in to the car as I left home and the update finished just as I got home from the office - 20-25 minutes.

Everything went well (NoNav, CarPlay), but the first couple of times I had to reverse, I got a camera error after seeing the usual view for a few seconds. This seems to have sorted itself now, hopefully still working ok tomorrow.

Not yet. I'm a little skeptical as there seems to be a few people complaining about some glitches, whereas mine with the 2.0 is working perfectly. So i might just wait this one out.

I just turned wifi on to see if Ford Pass would recognize V 3.0. So far, it doesn't show up in my history.

In checking Ford Pass, I found out v2.3 is officially released for my 2016 Mustang.

Yeah, 2.0 works perfectly for me too. So I will not switch to 3.0 unless I am 100% sure that it works fine.

I wish Ford would just hurry up and release the "final" so we can update "officially." I have a '17 with 2.0, so no big rush for me to update.

The only things I'd really want are:

- Ability to choose color scheme and/or wallpaper. I don't love the blue design. But, I use Apple CarPlay, so no biggie.
- My car doesn't always emember what radio station and/or sirius station it's on after playing music from my phone.

Does anyone still have the network required pop-up come up even after connecting to WiFi?

That’s a proper Ford update for 16’s and 17’s. 18’s come with 3.0.

I have the unofficial 3.0, should I wait for the official release or do this update to go back to oem?
