Anyone else noticing their system hanging/freezing for a few seconds when the screen background switches between daytime & night brightness settings? Since applying the update my system freezes for a second or two every time it changes between day/night brightness settings. I have factory navigation in my sync 3 unit if that matters.

Just did the update tonight from V1 to V2.2, Used the HC3Z-19A387-B usb hub which has the blue lights not the white. Pretty cool but don't know how much ill use it as I don't plug my phone in much when I'm in the truck. Maybe ill have to get another cable to keep in the truck and start plugging it in right after I disable my auto start stop lol, get into a routine. Any way I searched for hours trying to find a good link to download the update from, here is the site I got the link from (mine has NAVI).

Did you install the USB hub first, then update or did you update on OEM USB hub, then replace the USB?
I have a 16' XLT and I replaced the USB hub first, downloaded update via Mac and it won't update. As soon as I plug it in, it sees the device, then states one or all of the files is bad, and fails. I am going to attempt this update via extracted file from PC.
