One good thing I discovered the other day - not sure if others have seen this, but my USB2 works just fine post update.

Lucky you, my update wont recognize at all, and for some reason I can't even get my system to do a reset when I tell it to. Did you have the truck running?

I can't get the damn update to install. My flash drive is formatted in Fat32 and the files are rooted. It just keeps saying "no files, make sure it's in the root form" or something of that nature. The only thing I can think of trying is using a PC instead of a Mac. Considering the last update was installed using the same flash drive and computer, I may just quit trying before I end up tearing the radio out of the dash and smashing the hell out of it.

Right there with you!!!!!!

I couldn't figure out how to launch the install either... So I called the Sync help line and some lady walked me through doing the update over the phone. I don't remember the exact steps, but she had me use the steering wheel controls...

My issue with the update. The Bluetooth audio streaming works fine, until I turn the car off, get back in the car, and it randomly starts playing a song on my iPhone (doesn't start playing where it left off). I have thousands of songs on the iPhone--this is incredibly annoying...

I had the same issue. Go to the phone menu, system settings, install applications. Press OK, install USB drive and press OK again. Worked like a champ. Not sure if that's the exact steps but pretty close. Truck must be running.

Interesting. I've noticed a similar behavior on my galaxy s5 and had assumed it was an update on the phone that occurred. What happens is if you have songs in the queue of either the google play app or the built in music app it does the same thing yours does. Super annoying. At least with the google play app you can clear the queue easily. The built in app you have to do it a song at a time! Argh. It has 1379 songs in the queue right now because at some point I shuffled and played everything. I wonder if this is what you are seeing too. I've never used the iphone player so I have no idea, but if you can clear the queue see if that stops it.

In other news, my system stopped responding to all voice commands and would not connect to the phone via bluetooth two days ago. After deleting profiles and a master reset didn't fix it, I went to the internets and discovered that I all I had to do was unplug the battery for a few minutes. That fixed it.

I have had this happen to me twice. I now know that if sync can not hear my voice at the voice prompts then the battery cable or fuse will have to be pulled to reset the system. Shutting the car off and restarting does not fix the problem. Nor does either of the two resets.

I have also noticed that when I make a phone call from my phone, rather than the voice prompts, that after the first ring privacy mode will kick in. I have to de-select the "Privacy Mode" option on the screen to turn it off. This only happens when I start the call from my phone. Which I've always done and never had this problem before the update.

The metadata update is nice but had I known that this would happen, and that the auto reconnect bluetooth wouldn't work I would never have installed this update.

Does anybody know if it is possible to purchase a Sync module, that has not been updated, and replace it with the existing module? I was happy with the original software that came on the module.

Same. I have noticed that many things improved w/ SYNC since the update but occasionally my phone stops playing music and / or has issues connecting now.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5
