Obviously you'll need Forscan and an adapter if you wish to change it Cheers Ian, I’ve got an OBDLink EX cable and Forscan on the laptop so I’ll change that value and see how it goes.

ianincheshire Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 From that Forscan thread it looks like vn 3.4 doesnt recognise the ford-ST animation setting with the Timeless theme. According to the extract from the table below it got lost somewhere between 3.0 and 3.4. The vignale animation seems to be recogised for both Timeless and classic. Maybe its just a coding mistake and nobody noticed...

colinmcg71 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Sorted. Changed the value from Timeless to Classic and the ST shutdown splash screen is back. Thanks again Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 It must mean that new build STs don't show the logo on shutdown then as all the asbuilt data is the same as mine. I wonder if that was intentional or just an oversight. Probably the latter knowing Ford. 😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmcg71 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I noticed that the background I chose from display settings switched back to default after parking up for a few hours. Just switched mine back to the way Ford intended. ST startup, Ford shutdown. Keep it standard for now. See if the chosen background remains this way.

hsheikh Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Dear All, Please Help! I own a Focus RS Edition running Sync 3.0, Build 19205, Gracenote 1.1.1.1127 (EU-0010), Maps F9 , SYNC Serial Number NX1PO151. I have noticed a major issue with the Voice Function for Navigation, it does not work. For example: 1. I ask for petrol stations near my location and the voice management is unable to find any POIs however if I use the touch screen it works. a. I ask for a choice of other POIs or routes and they also fail to be selected however if I use the touch screen it works. 2. I ask for a route from a postcode or address and either the voice management is unable to find the postcode or when it successfully produces a list, the system does not accept the line number associated with any postcode it has found however if I use the touch screen it works. I am not sure if this is a failure due to the Sync 3.0 build or the latest F9 Map update I downloaded and installed from the FORD UK SYNC website and installed last week. Has anyone else had this issue and if so what was the fault and what is the solution. Kind Regards, Haroon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hsheikh Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Dear Alex, I am not sure, because in the past I only used Voice commands for handsfree mobile communications and this still works. I have checked other 2017 and 2018 Ford Focus ST and Zetec running Sync 3.0 with Maps 6.1 and Sync 3.3 with Maps 7.0 and the Navigation Voice controls work on those vehicles. I was wondering if someone running F9 could check if their Voice Navigation works when asking for a postcode, petrol etc. I am also wondering if the F9 update I installed had a file corruption and asking the Forum if anyone knows how to download the update again? These updates are carried out by us the customers and so the FORD garages don't have much experience with Sync updates or they offer to take a look with a hefty charge to investigate! Kind Regards, Haroon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind Regards, Haroon I’m on F8 , to be honest in the almost year I’ve had the car I’ve not asked sync for directions to a postcode or petrol station . Or maybe any POI. I’ve been typing in destinations to get there then saying “previous destination home etc” . Your on the right thread for this ..good luck..

kingfisher1967 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I don't understand why there is so much variety in what version of Sync 3 and maps that owners on the forum have. I have a 2019 Mk4 running version 3.3 and with F7 maps, and according to the website, they are the newest versions 😠 The car I just part exchanged had an F8 SD card in in Grrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianincheshire Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I've seen reports on the Kuga forums that some people have got the 3.4 update. So thats Edge and Kuga , hopefully we won't be far off. Then we just need to get the F9 maps update ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
