NeilRS Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 never noticed this before- but noticed tonight that the temperatures for inside the car- on the top of the screen are the wrong way round- as in the temp I have set on the drivers side is on the left hand side of the screen and Vicar versa. Also, if I switch the right hand heated seat on- it comes up on the top left of the screen and vice versa. Anyone else got this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilRS Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Somebody broke into my car and started playing Showaddywaddy. It's not mine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb65 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 😂😂 That does look odd! Its almost as if its not configured for RH drive. What is the symbol top right? Looks like a settings cog, with a red cross through it?! I'll check mine tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian whu Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 U been messing around with forscan ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilRS Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 No, haven't touched Forscan. If I'm on the main climate screen the main temps on the screen are correct but the ones at the top on all the other screens are the wrong way round. Not sure what the cross is- will investigate - always been there though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilRS Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Also, when the plug my phone in it completely takes over the main screen and I can't find anyway of using the normal screen functions- sat nav, climate etc. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian whu Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Try a reset, and disconnect battery for 10 mins??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your phone have Android Auto or the iPhone equivelent on it? I have Andriod auto and there is a setting that allows it to auto run on connection to the car. With that allowed to happen you get exactly what you describe. It is designed so you can use google maps instead of the inbuilt nav. I experimented a bit but found it too intrusive so removed it from the phone as I realised I was never going to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad8988 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Mines the right way around and I'm pretty sure that cross is because you chose not not have emergency assist set up when you first connected your phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonb65 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Mine (Sync3) doesn't show the heated/cooled seat status on the top bar at all !!! At least not on the home page ... not tried the others, didn't think they would be different. (just noticed the original pic by @NeilRS is on the audio screen).

Sonic72 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 This happened to me this morning. Checked at lunch time and it fixed itself. On a slightly different note is the clock meant update for Best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilRS Posted March 27, 2017 Author Share Posted March 27, 2017 Seem to be getting a few random things- phone dropped it's connection for no reason. Couple of times I haven't been able to switch the radio on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelvin1950 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Initially, I was jealous but now I'm so glad mine has sync 2 which works perfectly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad8988 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I had sync2 in my focus and this feels like a nice upgrade, it's alot more fluid. I feel the opposite to you in that I would be alittle gutted if it arrived with sync2. Each to their own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeEdge Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 As yesterday I finally put my hands on the car, and my big bum in... Noticed 1st feature which so far i don't like. Plugged USB stick, Nicky fine with folders so each artist have one... Over 1600 tracks.. and to my surprise is pain I'm the ... To navigate it as all folders by default are merged... Voice search is not an solution as after each track i would need to do next search if want to skip an artist... Yes you can manually ask to display they in folders but you have to it each time from scratch very confusing.

To navigate it as all folders by default are merged... If your mp3's have the right tag information, i.e. Artist Album, track number etc, then when you do 'Browse' its the same as an iPod in that it goes down through the Album, Artist, Genre selection down to the tracks. With the tag info, the folders you have put them on the USB stick becomes irrelevant! Edit : if they are not tagged ... you can do that with 'Mp3Tag', its free! You can also add the cover art (Must be at least 500x500 pixels to show up on Sync though), etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeEdge Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 My mp3 all are simply rip of CD, with all information supplied on CD. Including artist cover etc. Yes i am one of those who love to have big collection of CD but hate to use them in a car, so each of them i simply copy and put on my i. Car usb stick.

If you rip with windows media player, it gets the info from an internet database that isn't complete. I rip them, them open the album directory in mp3tag and add the missing info (only takes a minute) ... I've got 2 x 32GB usb sticks in my car with everything in my music collection on them. Adding the tag info also helps if you add the ripped album to your ITunes library too (if you use an iPhone or iPod). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 A tip is to remove the track title so the system will then reorder the files in track number order instead of alphabetically.Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeEdge Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Thanks for the help so far, but I won't let you guys so easy... Another question, SYNC3 SatNav, is there way to display trip distance as so far it only display time, for me distance is equally if not more important than time estimate.
