For anybody using the USB2, have you ever run into a problem where you SYNC will go into a "indexing" phase and never come out? I had this issue on my previous FX4 with SYNC, and Ford determine I had a bad SYNC module and replaced it. I did some googling, and I seem to have found at least 1 other person who had this "issue" when using USB2.

You could swap the two cables at the rear of the Sync unit: then "USB" would be in your glove compartment off your cable, and "USB2" would be on your dash.
(Probably not worth doing if you are using both ports; but if only using 1 port, then that would remove any potential problem. I haven't heard any problems with using both ports.)

My 1st F-150!
Really STUPID question----What is the main purpose of this mod?? I'm very new to Sync, and I know I haven't used it to it's full capabilities. Which is basically me doing the hands free calling and Ipod when I say "USB". Otherwise, I have no clue what else it really does.

The reason for the mod is to keep the thumb drive or ipod hidden in the glove box.
I also just ordered the cable from the meestore on ebay. Looking forward to getting it the first week of Feb.

I have a 160 GB hdd that is powered only by the usb plug so I just used a regular mini usb to standard usb plug to connect it to usb2. The hdd is formatted as fat32 like the memory sticks.

Cable
Since I wasnt patient enough to wait 2 weeks on a cable from Hong Kong, I picked up this cable from CompUSA and it worked well.
