Hello guys i have some questions. I replaced sync2 to sync3 and after that on my ipc disappeared street names and speed limits. How can i return it? Ford explorer 2014. On sync2 all it was.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] emt8209:
Glad I could help.

How to run the codes?

How to run the codes? Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] seadiel:
Take the picture file change it to a .swf extension load it in JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler change the code, you will need to know action script. One you change the code save the file then change the file extension back to a picture and upload to the system.

I haven't had time to mess around with this, I was able to make the system crash but nothing to crash to the embedded desktop.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Wrenchman9:
I don't see any more functionality coming to Sync 2 that we just can't do without. So like you I'll never update past 3.8 anyway.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
I've also played around with this when I've had time, with the intention of enabling video in motion.

My first attempt was to simply set some values, and try loading the video screen, but I got the usual lockout.

My next plan was to take the flash file from the Sync update, and modify the code to load the Video screen without the motion checks.

However, the Sync system limits these PNGs to 100 kb in size. Maybe if I compress the SWF back to SWC...

But then I got distracted with life and work..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] VIRUS FAN:
Do you guys still offer navigation licenses. I need one as soon as possible.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] seadiel:
Yea same busy with life/work.

I have had success in getting different menu options to appear but thats about it. When I connect the unit to wifi and setup a picture image with an http get I can see it actually send a http request out, how it will display this http get request is beyond me since I dont think it was setup for internet browsing but may have been planned feature.

So plan was to setup metasploit and send some crafty flash http exploits over. But with it being an old version of flash and windows embedded there probably no exploits already tailored for this in metasploit. Since reverse shells on metasploit are mainly tailored for specific OS, windows xp ect.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mpeters123:
I seem to get really nervous messing with this. Has anyone else really screwed up their car?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
Worst I've managed to do was lock up Sync until it hard-rebooted when I put an infinite loop in a wallpaper hack.

All AsBuilt changes can be undone. Don't muck with BCM/PCM and you're fine.

The Sync update is just... a Sync update.

The license? Heck, even that's just a PNG wallpaper (containing an SWF). It's been tested many times.

I've modified a bunch. Never an issue. Never a question from the dealership.

Nobody has bricked their car, as far as I know.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] VIRUS FAN:
Where is the sync update to use the free "Russian hack" is it the 3.8 version. I'm having a hard time figuring it out.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tindrunas:
Has any one been able to do the navipatch on the sync2 version 3.10 yet? or has anyone figured out the new link to get the genuine nav licenses yet? its been down for like a month and a half. The dealer keeps updating peoples version to 3.10 I haven't been able to play with v3.10 yet. Has anyone got any updates on when we will be able to get nav licenses again?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] emt8209:
What dealer has been updating people's vehicles to 3.10? They shouldn't be updating anyone's Sync without permission.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tindrunas:
I believe everyone's vehicle has a recall on their vehicle. For the dealer to update their APIM to 3.10. I have had bunch of people come to me with this problem cause they went to the dealer and they updated them to 3.10 and I then have to do a APIM swap
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Angandi:
Can anyone confirm that navi ist working after updating SYNC to 3.10? Navi was unlocked via PNG.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KC_Dickson:
I had working NAV on v3.08, I took car into dealership (15 Fusion without NAV originally) for standard oil change/tire rotation. They took it upon themselves to update my Sync2 from v3.08 to v3.10. I explicitly told them not to reset car back to as built or upgrade the Sync - so much for that.

Now I still see all the Navigation menus and options (in main 8" screen and the right hand IPC screen). The only real issue is that it says "insert NAV Card") in the upper right of the 8" screen - no matter what. I have a known good A6 card, SD slot works fine (can plus music off it). In the dig screens is shows that the Navigation Software version is "Navigation Application: Unknown" and Map Database as " Unknown". I have tried running the AF update and it errors out with bad version message.

Sync is now at: 3.10.161180.EA.0_PRODUCT

I have done a Master reset and a reinstall of the SWF Background license patch. Still the same results. Any thoughts on what might make it work again?

I am getting my account setup so I can post as myself in a few minutes.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
Did you confirm they didn't reset the APIM bit?

I would confirm the APIM, try Nav Install again, and PNG again. Couldn't hurt anything.

Also, you could try making an A7 card (PM me if you need info). I doubt ford set a minimum version on the maps, but it couldn't hurt either.

Edit:

Didn't someone on here say they managed to force-downgrade their Sync software?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KC_Dickson:
I now have functional Sync2 under v3.10. I downloaded and installed the file called "NEW_GLOBAL_NAV_APP_AG_VER.Zip" that was posted a few pages back. After installing this file unzipped on my USB drive I had to do a Master Reset to get it working (I did not need to redo the license patch).

Navigation is up and working normally at this point on v3.10 Sync2 on my 15 Fusion that did NOT come with Navigation originally.

A later poster had put a copy of this file on a non MegaUpload site to avoid all the pop-ups, I would recommend getting the file from that post versus the original one.

Please use this update package. Everything should be back to order.

---------- Post added at 12:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 AM ----------

To downgrade from 3.10 to 3.8 for North America simply download the update package from Ford server http://ivsu.binaries.ford.com/swparts/Gen2v38build15128updatepackageNARev2.zip and replace the original autoinstall.lst file to this:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KC_Dickson:
Per my previous post I now have full navigation working on a v3.10 Sync2 System. No downgrade needed. Thanks for the reply though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tindrunas:
Did you do the NaviPatch before the 3.10 upgrade or after? I'm wondering if you can still use the patch with 3.10 after you do the AG update.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tindrunas:
did genuine nav licenses just get fixed?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
This definitely works!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] inivid:
Excellent write-up. I had difficulty, but once I realized I needed to do a system update and did so, all is working well.

There is one exception. When I called SiriusXM to add Traffic to my existing subscription, I was told they couldn't add it because their record shows my system doesn't support it. Despite explaining it will, the rep adamantly refused to add it. Despite that frustration all is well. If anyone has overcome this, I'd like to know how.

Also, I reached out to a fellow XDA member for a license, but am still waiting for a reply. Utilizing the PNG hack, in the meantime.

Fix after ford upgrades to 3.10

I added nav to my Ford Taurus 2015, all works great. Thanks everyone involved . I upgraded mine with the patch method not the license method. I am do for an oil change at the ford dealer. Just what to make sure the files in post 811 would fix it if the dealer upgrades me to 3.10 since I didn't get a license.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] artumis111:
Good to know. I did the license method for a 2013 F150 and 2012 MKX. The MKX likes to do the "insert SD" shenanigans and IPC will show "navigation fault". I've managed to get it to work by swapping out the A7 in the f150 for the A7 in the MKX and the nav will work for around 3 weeks. It appears that it's the actual navigation software that is the issue. I'll have to try upgrading to AG on the MKX and see if this corrects the issue as you seem to have discovered. Thanks for that! I'll update when i can confirm.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fukmii:
Have to say that I am very excited. I followed the instructions in this thread and I now have factory NAV, Climate controls, and heated seats enabled on my 2015 F-150.

Great work to everyone that has contributed.

I am curious, has anyone tried to enable the HD Radio feature ? I have been reading that if you have an ACU with a factory Sirius receiver, it is possible to enable the HD radio. Has anyone attempted to add that ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mwb9122:
Same here!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] emt8209:
Does anyone have the link for the 3.10 update? If so then share it and let people update on their own. I'm thinking the dealer is t doing the update the way they should using ids and are rather using the USB method we'd use if we were able to download it which is why they aren't releasing it for user update. This would seem to be the reason why a few have been able to correct the issue. Let's get the update out and let the users update themselves so the dealers won't be able to restore to factory as built.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
Finally I can again generate REAL Sync2 navi license. :cowboy::cowboy:

Please write.

There isn't a link to dowload 3.10 update package for North America. The contents of the upgrade package are generated each time on a server.

If you can get and share with me contents of USB stick recorded during on-line update in North America , I will construct for you correct 3.10 USB update package for NA.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rmcgry:
You have 3.10 for Europe ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
Yes. I have 3.10 update with EUlangpack2 - for Eastern Europe (with EN, DE and RU languages). Only this one.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] performanceisland:
even on the ford owner and lincoln owner websites there is no 3.10 update, they claim 3.8 is latest, this appears to be only a ford ids able update at this time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rioachim:
Nope, not really. That is not a full update and no one should try it. SEC file and many others are not included in their so called USB update
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Would the TK version of 3.10 work if you add the NA language pack? And would you have to remove the EU language pack # 2?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
I will prepare for you USB update package to 3.10 (16180) for NA before the weekend.

I check it if it works properly and after checking I share a link in this thread.

Sync2 USB update package to 3.10 (16180) version for North America.

Standard Ford splash screen (not Lincoln, Vignale or Mustang...).

Checked. Seems to work.

Made on the original packages, so comments on the functioning should be addressed directly to Ford. :cool:

Please disregard the information on the screen that it is the 3.08 update. Ford didn't do messages about 3.10 update , so I used those messages from 3.08 that everything was as it should be.

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ales_ZTMf8IEhORa6Fk_xiVLe3kSEg

Important note - the contents of the package for real navi license for versions 15128 and 16180 is different.

If someone will want to order real navi license from me, must clearly indicate to which version license to be generated.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
Fine :D

Real license not problem :good:

Just bought a nav license for Sync 2 from Ted. Works perfectly!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KC_Dickson:
I did the NaviPatch both before and after the v3.10 update. The root issue I believe was the Navigation Software needed to be updated to the "AG" version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
NAV real license still avalible :) Write to PM
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Works good on 3.08.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mwb9122:
Should we not upgrade to 3.10? He said it will work with the upgrade
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
3.10 works with navipatch.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
Fine

But real license is real . You have info about NAVI LICENSE in system menu . It is all like from factory :laugh:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] omar302:
Thanks, but do you mean if I install it on my Lincoln the splash screen will become Ford? Any way to make it Lincoln? Preferably Lincoln with THX audio. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
You will retain the Lincoln logo as long as your APIM 7D0-01-02 first set of numbers is 84xx. The 8 is specific for Lincoln if it is 04xx you will get the Ford one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] omar302:
Thanks for the info, but I was referring to the 3.10 update specifically as [MENTION=7724766]tedi_k[/MENTION] stated the standard Ford splash screen, I wasn't sure he meant only the Ford splash was included or it was only tested.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Applies to 3.10 also
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tindrunas:
I did this 3.10 upgrade to 3 sync2 modules. 2 had real licenses already nav active and 1 with the navpatch license hack already with nav then did the 3.10 update and they all still have nav active so this does not take your nav away like it does at the dealer. All are good. Only thing i thought was strange was when you do it to one with navpatch license hack. after you update to 3.10 when you look at the software version where you would see your nav license info it now shows /0 with Expiration Date None and Remaining Uses Unlimited like it does with real license. But my point is is that this update works.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
Thanks for info :good::good:

But real license is better for customers ;) . If You want please write PM
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rioachim:

Also you skipped EA5T-14D546-AJB.cab (restore NAV POI Favs) from USA update. Why?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
1) It was not my intention to prepare the "experimental" packag for NA. I did not have a 3.10 update package for NA. You have entered a link to chipford.ru.

I put the entire contents of the package from chipfor.ru into the environment allowing effective installation from USB. That's all.

2) I don't see EA5T-14D546-AJB.cab in NA update package from chipford.ru...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rioachim:
Well, for USA you should include at least EA5T-14D546-BE.zip which is responsible also for TDI (traffic, directions and information). It's a strange thing this one is found in chipfords's EU update when it should have been in USA. That's why I was asking if you tried this package on EU.

This worked on 2011 MKX, but I removed the file for 911 Assist since we don't have it here in GCC. I'd suggest if you make a package for Export versions. The MFT updates for North American Fords exported to GCC are labeled as "Export" and they do not contain the 911 Assist & VHR files..

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheSt33v:
First off, big thanks to tedi_k for providing the package. I ended up downgrading back to 3.8 though (and thanks for that too). The only change I noticed after installing 3.10 is that my phone would not automatically connect via bluetooth anymore. It pairs just fine, but I have to manually tell the phone to connect every time I get into the car. A master reset and several clean pairings didn't help. Typical Sync update. 0-2 steps forward, 2-4 steps back.

The problem had nothing to do with Sync.
