Software Updates
Fwiw... I Completed the latest apim update via fdrs on Tuesday. As of yesterday, alexa was still pendong in my connected services. I did a reset of fordpass (through sync settings, NOT MASTER RESET) and once I reconnected my app/vehicle, alexa was activated within 2 minutes. Just an update for those who had same issue
If you have time, can you look into mine? 1FTFW1RG8MFC42729
Just installed the latest TCU update without incident. One note: it was a USB update and provided a lot more information on the truck's main display as it was progressing, and popped a message with very specific steps, how long to wait, etc... - things are getting better!
So to me it looks as though you still can't go to what I would consider a true "full screen". Like have the entire screen (minus the top and bottom menu bars) be Apple maps or podcasts or other apps that would take up the whole screen. In this image it still looks like music or other apps take up a portion of the screen. Is it possible to go "full screen" with just one app running in carplay? Thanks.
For Android users, the map will be able to take full width whenever the finish the complete CoolWalk update for resizing panels.

Wow, I hope not. If a USB update process is required, that seems to infer that all of us non-FDRS folks will be required to go to the dealership for yet another update..... Is this TCU update the equivalent of 3.5.3...? I think that is the one I am due for next as I received 3.5.2 last week. Thanks

I can see where numerous modules have been updated today. BCM, GSM, IPMA, ABS, SCCM, TRM, IPC, DDM, PDM, and DSP were reprogrammed and all were completed successfully.
They attempted to reprogram APIM and I can see they had some issues there. They may try it again tomorrow

From my reading on this thread I know low voltage is a common problem with updates. Me and you know this and I'm sure Ford does but I'm happy the dealership is still working through the problem, and doing what they should do and not cut any corners.
Is anyone able to read my VIN again and tell me what they have done the past two days? VIN# 1FTFW1E5XMFA41130
Thank you in advance
