I currently have v3.8 with bought and activated navigation. If I update to 3.10, does everything stays activated or I lose the license (for navigation)?

Well the all mighty update v3.10 is here :smile: 

before i was sending the download link only for Language pack 2 and via PM. But now it is already available for all other language packs. I have used the original Language Pack2 update and edited it for all other EU language packs that were available on the Russian site: chipford.ru 

The installation is the same as before so:

1. Download and unzip onto USB stick (formatted to FAT32)

2. On the USB stick you should have only: "SyncMyRide" folder and "autoinstall.lst" file

3. Start your car, engine must be running all the time

4. Plugin the USB in you car and the installation will start automatic. 

Installation time approx. 22 minutes.

After the installation the SYNC will have no saved data from Phone or Navigation - so you have to set it up all again.

For those who have the NAVIGATION activated additionally - you won't loose it after this USB update. 

And of course, UPDATE ON YOUR OWN RISK ! :wink:

Hi all,

 

First post for me just to say the upgrade to 3.10 for me worked in my 2015 Mk5 Mondeo using the above download and instructions. I was on and a very old version of sync and nav version 3.x!!! (not mentioned on any popular guides) so I took the risk to use the (Full) 700mb 3.10 upgrade straight up. Good news is it worked, took about half an hour and now I am on 3.10 (Nav 5.67.6).

I can't even begin to tell you how happy this has made me.. my what I assume was 2015 factory spec software was ridiculously UNRESPONSIVE. I had to hit each button 2/3 times regularly so I got completely put off and stopped using it after a week, the nav address input screen was laughable also. I just bought the car 2nd hand and have been actually feeling a bit upset about how poor sync2 turned out to be.

Anyway... after this upgrade, the system I am glad to report is so.. so much better, very responsive, quick to navigate and the nav has lost the mind-boggling address entry... i'm really happy. Thanks all.

So yeah thought I would sign up to say if anyone else is in my shoes and has a very old version of sync it appears to be safe to go straight to 3.10 (using the 700mb~ package above) on a EU spec car with the above download. If you are like me and wanted to know where the files came from you might find http://www.2gfusions.net/showthread.php?tid=5658&page=8 & https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71250920&postcount=834 interesting. I believe the above download is an EU variant of this "homemade" update much to the dismay of some of the NA drivers who happened to install it and lost NA specific features. You will get a "congratulations you have upgraded to 3.08" message at the end that throws you but as soon as you press OK you can see it is clearly 3.10 in the version listed as installed, this appears to be a byproduct of combining the official 3.08 install package with the new 3.10 components. I feel slightly uncomfortable discovering this but as long as the source files are valid and from ford and install correctly I got over it and went ahead! Not looking back!

Hi All, 

I'm in Switzerland and I just bought a 2016 March S-Max that was imported from Italy (there are lots of EU car importers in Switzerland, it's nothing special). It has SYNC 2 sadly, probably one of the last ones I guess. 

Anyway, I just updated to the 3.10 version of the software using Pack 3 (My missus is French, plus Switzerland has German, French and Italian as official languages) and it all seems to work OK as per the instructions given in this thread (thanks for your efforts in putting the package together!), although I haven't driven it yet. 

I used the Eject+Next button push trick to put the computer into diagnostic view mode and looking through the various sensors etc. there is a value that says something like "Transmission Type: Manual", which is incorrect, the car is an Automatic. One or two of the others looked wrong also.

Should I be worried about this?

Thanks for reading.

Hi Bannko

I'm sorry for being late on this one, but I downloaded the Gen2v310build16180updatepackageEULangpack3.zip package from your original post of February 13 2017, and ran the update on my 2016 Mk6 Ranger today and all seemed OK.  At the end of the update though, the confirmation message said it had successfully updated to 3.8, when I'd expected to see it say 3.10.

Am I missing something?  If there is a different link to download from for the 3.10 upgrade I'd be grateful if you could PM to me.

Thanks for any help.

Apparently it does show as 3.8 but is 3.10. Somewhere in the thread it does explain it.

Well I did the update it took ages! At the  end the voice command lady read out my update to 3.8 was successful and I was like wtf? I installed 3.10. Went into settings and it is 3.10 installed so that me me chuckle.

Another question now when I click software licenses it seems to be showing an update that's available for the nav. I've got f5 card. I click begin installation and it says something like cant find storage. Is this update only available via ford to do? I'm guessing the sync update I just did updates the sync software not the nav so me putting the usb with the software update on won't update the nav aswell?

Thanks for the help so far guys.

 

 

Eventually trawled the entire thread and found this from JMC17 which confirmed that I had experienced the same.  Happy that I haven't screwed anything up!

Thanks Bannko for the update.

Not sure if your post is missing some info Bannko?

Regarding the 3.10 update, has anyone noticed poor quality system voice messages after installing?  I have also noticed much worse phone connectivity for my Samsung S8 compared to V.3.08.

@petejigsaw My original post don't have the info to ignore the pop up message after update install, that version 3.08 was installed successfully.

Try to master reset SYNC2 after update maybe it would correct the voices?

Hi Guys,

New in Sync 2 land not in Ford land.

Just Bought a 2015 Mondeo Titanium X pack and was wondering:

As my CCPU S/W Version is 4.32.14073 and my Navigation Application is 3.62.5 Will update 3.10 still work.

Is my CCPU S/W Version the latest and if so How to change only my Navigation Application to the latest version. 

 

Cheers

Yetello

Clicking on any one of the Language packs creates a response which asks for a decryption key. Any ideas?

@PaterAnt sometimes the forum rewrites the links and that is why you have this problem. Can you tell me what LANG Pack you are trying to download?

Cheers

Hi there, unfortunately its the same for me also. Would you be able to share via a dropbox, or other cloud storage link? Thanks.

@Bannko Number 2

@Bannko Updated mine yesterday and all went well. Only took 25 minutes. Today I put the latest F7 maps card in and that works fine too. One query - the screen when I unlock the car is somehow different. Any ideas?
