Link to 3.3 19052 https://ivsubinaries.azureedge.net/s...3626000.TAR.GZ
This is the apps package only, you have to create your own autoinstall.lst file that points to it. Standard file structure. Apps file goes into a directory called SyncMyRide and the autoinstall.lst file goes in the root directory.

This will install over any version of 3.2/3.3/3.4

[SYNCGen3.0_ALL]
Item1 = 4U5T-14G381-AN_1552583626000.TAR.GZ
Open1 = SyncMyRide\4U5T-14G381-AN_1552583626000.TAR.GZ
Options = AutoInstall

I am currently on Calibration level JR3T-14G371-CHA, Bootloader GB5T-14G376-AA, Strategy HB5T-14G374-CA, Calibration HB5T-14G374-CA, Sound Profile GB5T-14G379-AA, Illumination HB5T-14G379-BA, so probably no need to reflash to avoid glitches on 3.4.
Once, used, It can not restore the old file structure. As of this time, an official Ford tool has not been found that will restore the original structure. Yes it will work on any year APIM running apps package less than 3.4 19274. 3.4 19274 has blacklisted the reformat tool. Any system running 3.4 19274 or higher has to downgrade to a lower apps package for the format tool to work.

As for the calibration, your running a lot newer than most of the people that have done this without any issues, so there shouldn't be any issues on your end.

I'll save you some time; don't bother trying.

There's only a few compatible USB to Ethernet dongles that will work.
Ford only permits a few specific external USB device ID's to connect as a security measure, but one of the really old Best Buy in-house-brand 'Insigna' USB Ethernet dongles works for sure. I forget the model number, but I think they are still posted on the France Mustang forums.

Some people have gotten in with the SSH client KiTTY using:
Internal APIM IP = 192.168.1.19
Username: root
Password: #Pasa3Fo

Even with this information I expect 99.9% of the people who try it will fail.
Only about 4-5 people on earth have rooted Sync 3, they worked together and won't share anything; I'm not one of them.

It's a gorilla 16GB usb drive. Only one i had laying around that could also be configured to be able to setup the maps and such too.

formatted it as FAT32, just unzipped the files from the 7z right onto the drive after format.

Might want to try a different one (usb3 would be better), as many issues reported are related to that.
