Great progress from Rostra!

Awaiting to see what other tests they want to run.

Have not had one black screen on the new module and just tested HDMI today and is great.
Thanks, JD-->

Their website still shows it's incompatible with Sync 3 V2.2. I'm guessing it's old info or you received one with beta firmware?

I have no idea of their plans. This was a special module for those who had updated feom
the v.2.2 Sync firmware from a thread on this forum.

No black screens after about a week and a half. So...all seems well. Now about the physical module change for 2.2...

Why do you need a new module if you are not having any issues?

Did you update from Ford's website or OTA?

I am not able to update past 2.0 to the version currently available from Ford...(2.2) That means I can't run Apple Carplay and the 2.2 addresses some bugs with the earlier versions of Sync 3. You basically abandon all upgrades or bug fixes from Sync 3 by using the Rostra module. That was never communicated or known beforehand. Basically any time I take my truck to the dealer, I could come home with a non-working system. That is not acceptable.

Mine was on 2.0 until I took it in to the dealer for a repair not associated with the sync when I picked it up they informed me they updated sync to 2.2. I lost all camera functions except the factory back up camera.
