Master Reset in Sync 3 has nothing to do with any changes made in ForScan. Your ForScan edits would have been and still are in effect if you did not change them manually.

So I have found some broken features after upgrading yesterday, neither one I'm crazy about.

1. As previously mentioned, no longer can you browse your USB folders in their entirety unless stopped.

2. Voice command operations seem terrible now. So far in 10 minutes trying, it hasn't recognized a single music command yet. With 3.0, I used to say, "Play Zac Brown Band." And it would play. All I get now is, "I didn't get that..." The music commands have changed for whatever reason, and even when I follow the command cues, "Show music by _____," still nada. But it's counterintuitive that the system now prevents you from browsing your media folders at speed, but the command for the same music media is "show", which defeats the point of voice commands in the first place. I did get it to recognize a couple of addresses in the nav.

3. I also noticed no fuel prices can be found either. The rest of Travel Link seems to work fine.

I have also noticed some lag, not much different from the 3.0 I upgraded from. I like the updated maps, but so far, I've gone backwards in capability. Wish I had my functionality back.

I did not do a master reset, but I also didn't see where that was required or recommended. Is that necessary?
It could be a bug, but it might have something to do with the fact I used the EU English voice package (because it sounds much better).

Try again but replace 5U5T-14G391-CB with the USA specific 385 MB file:

USA English voice package:
VOICE = 5U5T-14G391-CE_1550850032000.tar.gz

I linked the file for direct download for your convenience.

I updated several weeks ago to 3.4. without NAV. For whatever reason I cannot get the "3rd USB" to install. Tried two differnt thumb drives, confirmed my files are correct, etc. It starts the update but hangs up at some point. Not sure why, as I've never had issues upgrading via usb.

I don't belive anyone with non-nav has successfuly updated to the latest version via the 3rd USB method. It hangs and eventually errors out for everyone that's tried it, including myself. A few non-nav folks have reported that they got it to install by updating the 2nd USB with the latest version but personally I haven't found a need to do so. Plus, I'm still a little hesitant about it installing successfully via the 2nd USB knowing that it hasn't worked the "normal way" via the 3rd USB.

Thanks, man. I appreciate you continuing to help fellas out. I did do a master reset last night and the music voice commands did start working. I did also begin to get some fuel prices through Travelink, but only "Along My Route" when we had the nav active to our destination. "Area Search" for fuel prices still kept returning a "nothing found" type of error as of this morning, more than 48 hours post-upgrade. Anyway, I feel I'm about 98% there. Thanks again to all the contributors to this thread. All the best.

So from another forum sync 3.3 has an update coming for issues what will happen if you update to 3.4 and there are fixes and you do this update?

If you are at Build 19205 you have the latest software. However, there is a new update forthcoming that will address the voice recognition pauses and stuttering issue.

I am not an expert on this, but if you went to 3.4 then the next update to 3.3 will not work for you. From what I understand it is a completely different file structure so the new 3.3 will not work. You ar now on the 3.4 update path. I am just guessing so don't take this to heart until someone with a bit more knowledge chimes in.

I would understand that is the case but do we forsee any way of updating 3.4 if a patch comes out if we do this upgrade now.
