I posted about this in another thread about the new update, but thought I would try here as well. I have the unofficial update installed and am unable to install the official update over it. It just tells me that I am already up to date when I put the usb in. Has anyone been able to install over the unofficial version? What do I need to do to get the official version in my truck?

Probably have to downgrade to 2.2/2.3 then do the official upgrade.

I had the non official one for awhile, but heard that this could be a problem. I downgraded a few weeks ago.

Any difference between the 18 F150 one, and putting it on my 16? Trying to decide if I should just wait it out, or install the one linked above.

Do you happen to have the 2.2 non-nav files. I can't seem to find them anywhere to downgrade.

The update just now became visible for me on the owner website. It was not there earlier this morning.

Credit for this goes to a mysterious figure by the name of Paul.

Hi, Because I want to update my SYNC3, could you please help me to check that your SYNC3 is non-navi or with navi? ( I see the navi icon but still want to confirm it, thanks.)

Thank you!

Mine has nav. I wrote a separate install file for both nav and non nav units. I already used both of my updates on various Fords belonging to a few of my friends; I know the files work.

My guess is HB5T-14G387-AAB is an embedded utility considering it is 5.34KB which might play in to future OTA updates. Fords servers now request more criteria from hosts (an extra 60 bytes) when retrieving update requests. It could be anything though.

Also this is the first time Ive ever seen a .zip file from Fords server. Ive never seen the updates so neatly packaged for us like this.

Thanks Ford!
