Ability to run the TMC in Europe is not dependent on the version of Global Navigation aplication.

TMC depends only on radio installed in the car (ACM module).

TMC requires that ACM had a separate internal tuner intendent for TMC only.

Generally, cars imported from the US are not able to run the TMC in Europe.

In the update packages (EU and NA) use of EA5T-14D546-AEB precedes the use of EA5T-14D546-AFB.

This applies to update sections older and newer SW:

[SYNCGen2_4.23.11038] (older SW)

[SYNCGen2_4.23.11063]

[SYNCGen2_4.23.11081]

[SYNCGen2_4.23.11134]

[SYNCGen2_4.26.12023]

[SYNCGen2_4.28.12156]

[SYNCGen2_4.29.12285]

Item1 = BT4T-14D546-EE

:

Open8 = SyncMyRide\EA5T-14D546-AEB.cab

Options = AutoInstall

[SYNCGen2_4.30.13171] (newer SW)

[SYNCGen2_4.32.14073]

[SYNCGen2_4.32.14122]

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15042]

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15050]

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15085]

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15091]

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15109]

:

Open7 = SyncMyRide\EA5T-14D546-AEB.cab

Options = AutoInstall

Starting EA5T-14D546-AEB ends update section of existing SW.

While the block of instructions installing the new software will start running the EA5T-14D546-AFB.cab.

;;;

;;; The following are the 3.08.15128 image files

;;;

[SYNCGen2_3.08.15128]

Item1 = EA5T-14D546-AFB

Open1 = SyncMyRide\EA5T-14D546-AFB.cab

Thus the use of EA5T-14D546-AFB should be preceded by the use of EA5T-14D546-AEB.

Unfortunately, Sync2 does not contain a "spoken" Polish language (there is only "written" Polish in all European LangPacks). EULangPack2 includes only EN_DE_RU
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
and that it does not see how ... I do not live there
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
You can always see what "spoken" languages are included in the inastallation package. Look into the 'language' file EA5T-14F497-xx.zip - path 'data-> Nuance-> VCA'.

The English language is always and is not placed in the specified directory. "Written" languages are specified in the path 'data-> resources'.

Hi to all, I am new on this forum. I live in Italy

My car is mondeo 2015 without nav, no titanium.

Please, let me know if I am wrong

First step:

update sync version to the last version. My cpu build is 14073 cpu/sw 4.32.14073.

I have found on italian forum this file Gen2v38build15128updatepackageEULangpack3Rev4.

Second step:

download the f5 map from torrent. Download all the information from the diagnostic display on sync like apim,niv, hw,sw,vmcu.

Third step:

modify the APIM using Forscan with extended license by the obd2 connector. Here I don't know what i will see because I don't received the ELM327 device yet.

fourth step:

activate map license on sd card.

Thank you for your help
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:

people ask what I need to activate the navigation?

1. update Sync2 system to version 3.8.15128

US ONLY : HERE

For EUROPE : HERE

and others language pack

2. with Forscan Extended License you have to change APIM Navigation configuration (7d0-01-02. Byte 1 = 00 No Nav. Byte 1 = 04 with Nav);

3. install license (send me PM)

4. to work you need to have the map A (x) for the United States and F (x) for Europe

HI vincentka,

I want to use European maps on Sync2 US Model (Nav enabled) updated to the latest US 3.8.15128. or Do I need to install the European Sync2 System to make the map work?

Your help is appreciated.

Carpintero
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
If You use US 3.8.15128 You must downgrade this version and update to EU 3.8.15128 and install license again .After this You Can use EU maps :good:

new method

Hi there,

Russian guys have founded the new method of navi activation: drive2.com_ l_ 10018006 (change "_ " to "/")
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rmcgry:
https://www.drive2.ru/l/10018006/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
Gotta try this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
The method is based on a modification of the 3 variables:

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber ("InboundDiag.NavAppEnabled", 1);

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber ("ApplicationSettings.NavUnlocked", 1);

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber ("Provisioning.NavInstalled", 1);

These variables are tested by the procedure 'IsNavSystemInstalled()' for verifying the availability of navigation.

There is no known place initialization of these 3 variables in SYNC2 firmware, so I do not know the circumstances in which navigation will be deactivated.

It is noteworthy that in the procedure "IsNavSystemInstalled()' is tested another control variable 'SyncConst.UseNavOverride'. This variable isn't altered by the SYNC2 firmware. When set it to 'true' navi operates independently of those 3 variables.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
the license is better.

You can be sure that everything will be as original
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
For obvious reasons, I agree with you. :good::laugh:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
They (FORD) will close it with sync upgrade . Then THINK !!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
Maybe yes, maybe not ...

Important in all of this is knowing how to open SYNC2 software to modify them.

Already I learned some of that.

I can do the firmware version with variable 'SyncConst.UseNavOverride' set to 'true'. I can also do the firmware version with disabled restrictions while driving...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
May be ......
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jmbach:
That is intriguing. When I attempted to do that via modifying asbuilt data it disables SiriusXM traffic data integration. Will this mod keep SiriusXM traffic data integration with the nav?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
In my opinion, this can't be done by modifying the AsBuilt. I do this by changing the procedure 'DrivingRestrictionsActive()' so that this procedure sets 'no restrictions'.

var _loc3_ = this.GetDMNumber("DrivingRestrictions.GeneralApps",0);

if(_loc3_)

{

if(SyncUtil.IsProvisioning == true)

{

this.error(ACString.s22);

this.warning("SCBSS: Switching to queued Provisioning mode screen.");

this.ShowProvisioningMode();

}

else

{

this.DrivingRestrictionsActive(true); <- must be changed to (false).

this.ShowHomeStartupScreen();

}

}
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rioachim:
I think it's better to run the .png file first, then do the forscan mod. This way, a reset should not be needed. Also I am very curious if something appears in the licenses section of the sync2 help menu after doing this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
this method doesent put the license inside :(:(

I would prefer real license.

When You update SYNC2 ... You know what happend ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptodic:
now we are talking. now is time for the original project - hacking, for example to put a file explorer or video player on sync2... can anybody try to run a file from swf? first from usb then to copy to internal storage and from there...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:

http://xdaforums.com/windows-mobile/general/myford-touch-hack-enable-features-t3321397/page31

For normal users who want to add a navi to SYNC2 there is no better way than normal, real license.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptodic:
I know but he is not willing to share. I wrote him 4 months ago... He is a smart guy, he managed to port an alternative russian navi program to Sync2 and create a gps driver for it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tedi_k:
He installed Navitel on Sync2 and use the standard WinCE driver for USB GPS receiver (bought in the store). He is smart guy - it's true.

My Russian is better as my English - so I read on the Russian forum what really is done.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jmbach:
Since there is more knowledge than is publicly available, does anyone of any more button/key combinations that can get you into hidden screens and perhaps allows you to change some behaviors.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
So the PNG is a compressed SWF file?

(edit: I decompressed it. Reviewing...)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vincentka:
Inside :

//----------------------------------------------------------------------

on (press) {

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber("InboundDiag.NavAppEnabled", 1);

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber("ApplicationSettings.NavUnlocked", 1);

SyncUtil.SetDMNumber("Provisioning.NavInstalled", 1);

gotoAndStop (2);

}
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:
Makes me wonder if there's a list of the properties/enums for everything InboundDiag, ApplicationSettings, Provisioning, etc. Probably need the Sync SDK to get more info.

Edit: Also, why "Compressed SWF" and not just regular SWF?

I think this is the closest thing I've seen to running unsigned code, even if it is within Sync and Flash.

Can a Flash program execute an external program?

2. forscan edit apim configuration

3. update with AF navigation app and AYE patch
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheSt33v:
Have you tried it? Were you successful?

Also, a general question for anyone: I've been reading a lot about this and I have an ELM327 (MS CAN capable) on the way, but can anyone point me towards a guide or a resource on how to backup my original configuration and restore it if necessary?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] COMpulse:

I did time ago for me when I tried to update from 3.8 rev2 to rev4, modifying the autoinstall.lst in one USB and in a second one leaving the original, and during the update process swapping the two usb...maybe you have a better and simple way...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheSt33v:
Step 3 isn't mentioned on the post on the Russian site. Do you know if it is necessary?

Also, I've found the AF navigation app by sorting through this thread, but I can't seem to find the AYE patch that you're talking about. Could you point me towards that?

Do not place physically license in the middle of the device

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MarcinXDA:
I tried it yesterday in one car. Works well, as for now. I will inform when sth is wrong.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheSt33v:
Yeah. And also not free. This new method ruins your business. You don't want this free way to catch on. I appreciate that, and I understand why. That being said, I don't see any reason why I wouldn't want to try this the free way, so that's the way I'm going to do it. It doesn't seem to be any more difficult than applying the licenses that you provide. We know the contents of the png file, and there is nothing malicious in it. I'm not sure how this way is less "safe" than any other. As for Ford maybe patching this in the future, I really don't care. They can release as many update patches as they want. Unless they decide to bring Android Auto to sync 2 (which will never, ever happen), I'm not taking them.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sheltonfilms:
So I finally was able to get my hands dirty with a 2014 Explorer Sport today (my 2013 already had NAVI but I wanted to go through the full process, you learn better this way).

Here is how it went:

First off the 2014 Explorer had never had a update since factory build.

I ran the sync checker app and retrieved the xml file.

Loaded all values to the spreadsheet except for the iswfpn (left it the default EA5T-14F657-AD). Posted link in chrome and got HTTP 500.

So I change everything back to default and just used esn number change and it finally downloaded.

Put it on usb and tried to install and it gave a bad update error.

Downloaded latest sync update and installed it.

While I was waiting on the download (I think it was 540 MB) I went ahead and change the ABD in the APIM, ACM, and IPC.

No changes except IPC went form "COMPASS" to "NAVIGATION."

After update the url generated file finally installed.

I left the autoinstall file alone and let it run everything.

After install INFORMATION changed to Insert SD Card.

Inserted card and success.

*******************************

Only thing I can see that is not perfect is when I select Navigation and then hit OK on the cluster I don't see the screen saying HOME, Favorites, Nearby POI, etc like my 2013. (I know Ford changed the instrument cluster slightly in 2014 wonder if this was a change).

Anybody else see this menu on theirs?
