Just inserted first usb and got this screen about 9 seconds in. Is this normal?

I let it run for over 2 min then I pulled it. Got this screen next. So I inserted USB #2. Hope it helps anyone else. I’ll document my progress.

Now it’s scrolling through several screens while the green status bar makes its way across. Shelby GT 500, a pony & the Ford blue oval

I had a green screen rather than red, but your pics that follow match mine.

Awesome. I’ll document the rest Incase anyone else needs a boost of confidence when they do theirs.

I appreciate you chiming in!

Okay. So the green status bar took approx 25 min to load. After that I got a green screen

After that the screen went half green, half IDK. Missed the pic. After that got the Blue Oval

Then some options to send auto updates. Nah. I’m good.

Then confirmed that I’m selfish

Everything seems to be working.

I can’t recall but I thought the bottom row used to disappear by scrolling down. Didn’t happen w this. Maybe I’m thinking of another car?

Anyway. Hope this helps anyone who gets all the strange screens.

If we install this "pre-release" update, we are still going to be able to install the released update whenever Ford releases it, right?

Good question. The answer is who knows. Anytime you download unauthorized software you run the risk of screwing something up down the line. Proceed at your own risk.

Thanks to OP for linking this. Just upgraded my '17 GT and the wife's '16 Flex, worked like a charm!

Glad to hear this worked for you. Even if for some reason you cannot update any further you are still ahead of the curve.

Yes, and in the case of my wife's Flex, the maps are a huge upgrade. Her 2016 shipped with 2014 maps, and there have been a LOT of road changes in our area in the past 10 years that were not represented in '14 maps. She loves the style of the new interface too, so a definite win-win

I would think the new files would overwrite the old ones.. Maybe!

17 seems to max out at 3.0 unless you want to pay.

Depends on how you want to do it. The unofficial Cyanlab’s is free. If you want to do it officially you will need to pay for a new APIM, update to 3.3 and then wait until Ford releases 3.4.

Your choice.
