Never ceases to amaze me why folks getting into using Forscan (not you at this point) dont or refuse to buy the device that is recommended, just to save a few bucks. But as we know, they almost always end up here complaining about their device not working.

Forscan recomends 2 devices now, see here: https://forscan.org/download.html

100% I use the MX+ most of the time because it works with Windows, iOS, and Android. For doing module updates and some of the more involved stuff the EX is definitely the go to.

Do an APIM reset under the wrench icon after the APIM changes.

Hmm, I pulled your asbuilt values from the VIN you posted before I suggested those values and what I posted shouldn't have caused you to lose anything. If you start driving and press the hard button camera it doesn't go to bed view there at all? Also, I saw where your asbuilt values included the Bed Camera among the cards (IOD) on the right hand side of the screen - does it show there?

I guess restore your old values until we can test it out more. Still waiting for my own truck to get the update

So your real close I reset just the APIM from the ones you gave me from my as-builds and now seem to have all cams back and motion on hitch and bed cams.
I changed one by one to see what one did the trick.
I did not mess with the IPMA the APIM 7DO-01-04 gave me all cams back.
still working on it will report back any findings
