Official Ford Sync3 3.4 Release

[neodark]

Yes. Two separate sites.
NAV Update Here
Sync Update Here

Thanks... However, the ford site states that my car is up to date after I enter my VIN, hmmm.

"Your SYNC system (SYNC3 v3.3.19052) is up to date."

If that doesn't change in the next couple of days I suggest looking into upgrading with the Cyanlabs method. A hell of a lot easier than the official method and you can do both Sync and NAV in on one go. It will take about 50 mins.

The most likely reason for this is that you did not upload the xml file to Ford after the last update. Because of this they do not know what you have. Now regardless they should still offer you 3.4 at this point. Anyway if you didn’t upload the file and you still have it, do it now. I would still put in a call to Ford as they can fix this for you.

I will respectfully disagree with el on the recommendation to download the Cyanlabs version of 3.4. Since an official version is available I’d go with that for any possible warranty issues that could come up. My 3.4 update took 15 minutes with no issues. Updated maps 1.19 afterwards. Took longer but again no issues. And it’s official.

You can just find a used car site with 19’s and use one of those VINs. Just make sure it’s Nav (~1.2GB) or Non-Nav (~2.3GB) depending on what you have. The installers aren’t ESN linked or anything like that.

I've said this before but Ford could make a s*** ton of money by offering voice packages (celebrities and such) and ways to customize the screen with themes (like my Galaxy phone). As long as it worked across all vehicles with Sync it'd be a hit, and something I don't thing many others are doing.

Well, just tried the Ford website, and it spewed that I'm up to date with my 3.3-19052. Am I the only one???

Out of curiosity, what's the deal with that 'cyanlabs' mentioned so much? What's the catch with that site? And do they have now the same exact 3.4 version (forgot the numbers), or is it still an older version? Hope I don't have to use it.

I also love the dark mode in 3.4. It's all I use.

If I can ever download it, where do you access it? Thx.

Because the display can still be dimmed... in night mode.

Where is that setting? Thx.

And only 4 pre-defined backgrounds... really Ford!?

Are they 4 on 3.3 or 3.4? And once more, how do you access them? Thx.

Cyanlabs method is like jailbreaking method for iPhones. Their downloader allows the install /update of Sync and Nav versions bypassing Ford's checking methods. You still downloading official Ford downloads from Ford servers. All is done from one place. This is how Sync3 v3.0 owners can install newer versions like v3.4. Because of their outdated APIM, Ford doesn't allow this. Check out the Cyanlabs community forum

These are found in the display settings

I found them on my pc so here they are.

How do you get to this display? I guess this is the APIM diagnostics. I need to check if my NAV 119 installed correctly.

How do you do a "master reset" on Sync?

thanks,

thanks,

there are 2 methods

https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/how-to-enter-into-“bezel-diagnostics”-mode.119109/

1) like el-guapin said..

Press n Hold FF and the CD Eject buttons -> Touch "End Speaker Test" -> APIM diagnostic - > IVSU Versions

2) if you dont have a CD player (like i do) then its "seek up" on the steering wheel and "tune up" button on the FCIM (front control interface module). its the phsyical button on the center console to go to next station, not the digital button.

Called Ford, and another imbecile picked up the phone; geez. After the 3rd time he said it was impossible that any 2019 Mustang could have Sync 3.4, at least he transferred me to Sync tech support, where I was able to get the infamous 'confirmation email' from the 1.19 map version, so I'll be able to reload them when I can get Sync 3.4 updated. So far, not available for my car. Wonder if I'm the only one, and why is that. Will keep checking a few more days.

Check out the Cyanlabs community forum

Thank you for both that link, and for the settings heads-up. Prefer to do it from Ford, in case of any warranty issues. But if I never get the Sync 3.4 there, might try CL. So I guess it's like FORScan, no? Cool.

How do you do a "master reset" on Sync?

It's in settings. Don't remember exactly where, but it shouldn't take you long to find it . It's on the same menu where you look at the Sync and map versions. I always have to look for it, but doesn't take me long.

Thank you! I don't have the CD player on my 19GT 400A so I'll use Wade's advice for that.

How do I do a "system reset"?

UPDATE: I found the System Reset.

 

[hlh1]

Even though my Nav maps continue to update in 35 minutes (tried twice) it displays Complete and here's what's been loaded. Guess I'm ok.

As someone else has mentioned, I'm now not able (with Sync 3.4) to Browse my USB stick with all my tunes, even when sitting still or when using the voice commands.

UPDATE: System Reset solved this problem.

Yep, looks fine. That's a pretty blistering install time for the map.

Yep, either a master reset (to re-index) or a forced re-index through media player settings seems to be clearing this up for everyone.
