Current SYNC 3 and CarPlay/Android Auto Information
This thread makes it quite apparent on how many are too lazy to read (even the very first post) and help themselves expecting to be spoon fed and/or are lacking basic computer skills at this day and age. Its honestly quite mind boggling!
While there are a lot of members in the thread trying to help, I can only imagine JM061 is second guessing putting this out to the public with all the PM’s, headaches, handholding, etc.

The biggest issue that came up is the system seems to like some flash drives and hates others. Not sure why that is, but as someone stated in another forum all flash drives are not created equal and do behave differently.
I do agree people need to learn to read...its a sticky...that usually means important information is located in the first thread. Unfortunately the way the forum is setup I can't go back and edit the post myself. I have to ask the admin to do so.
The other thing is the forum seemed to have an influx of new users after this got posted. This is a F150 forum and people assumed the USB hub is the same for the Mustang, Fiesta, etc....simply not the case so now they lost the use of their dash mounted USB hub. Research, contact your dealer...they can pull up the proper part #. Its the difference between a terminated dual port hub (example..F150) and daisy chained single port hub (example Mustang).
On the other hand, if someone can't read through and find the relevant information, they might be better off waiting for the automatic update to be released.
So I think if you wanted to not buy the USB hub you could probably use a female mini female USB (like a ps3/4 controller size) to iPhone adapter, and it might work. Unless their really is a specific chip in the hub vs just the old hub being incompatable.
Mine is running Great on my 2016 F-150 with NAV if you need a new USB hub they are on Ebay as well from Sweeny http://www.ebay.com/itm/GJ7Z19A387B-...25.m3641.l6368
Mine still says 1.0 on the owner page as well. I have it set for automatic updates, and have manually had it search for updates multiple times, but the search for updates never completes - just spins & spins...
