Yep. I'm suspecting the seller is cranking out A11 clones and also putting them as A10 for maximum selling power. But comfrmed 2 times. I reordered another one from the same seller in case if was accidentally and that also was a A10 labeled as A10. If you do a search on Amazon, the seller will he the listing with the most reviews.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
The reason I asked is that they have been selling copies labelled as authentic in North America since A5 through A 10. I bought an A7 off Ebay years ago and it worked ever since. Then last year I made my own A10 from I files I download off the GPS site here: https://www.gpspower.net/ford/358875-ford-sync-2-a10-north-america-map-2019-a.html

To download you have to register and the like the post for the file. I'm registered as Originate here. To make the map card you need Andriod 7 or lower cell phone. The instructions are in this thread. You also need to find the Activator file for the android phone.

I've scoured GPS for A11 files ever since as I would make my own and see if it works, but those files have not shown up. I still have my working A7 that I've tried to sell but no takers yet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GreatHate:
Oh yeah... Thxs! But I'm aware of how to make them myself. Only issue is I have ZERO androids with 7.0. I just moved on from this but beware... lots of A11 being passed as A10. Even though it's more modern... I still would like to try a A10 to see if it's a corrupt data I'm dealing with these a11 clones.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kevinds:
Have you had any luck with this yet?

I created a A10 card with files found online with no issue but I can not find the A11 download..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
No I haven't found the A11 files. I also made an A10 map card about a year ago from the GPS site.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cybercyclops:
Hey guys, first time posting, few weeks reading this project. So I finally decided to go for it and enable everything I want since I found out they don't give a rip about Gen 1 and 2 syncs, that and it's now open source. I've owned my 13 Fusion se for about 2 years and always hated that I didn't have full access and control of my damn car and wound up here.

So, I've ordered my ELM327 and map, and decided to go ahead and get everything set for when they got here in a few days. I reverted from 3.10 to 3.08. Didn't know about it since the car was about 3 years outta update when I got it so getting back to .08 was a *****.

One question and horror story. I never noticed anyone having an item in software licenses (pic attached), should that be there?

Now last night I stayed up legit all jight because after installing the 3.08 and the navi apps for it I load the interrogator and follow up with the corresponding sync app and it crashes halfway through. Nothing works, sound, power, screen, voice so I wait it out for about 6 hours and no change. I kill the ignition, pull the fuse, still nothing. I load the flash drives to read logs to see what the he'll happened. They were all blank.

Next morning screen turned back on and there was legit no info in the amip. No temp numbers no media. Couldn't connect phone. I ended up formatting the crashed load and re unzipping 8t and loading it. Fixed..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rioachim:
At first I thought you are just a beginner looking for trouble, but seeing your other posts I am glad to give some insight to your situation. When you downgraded from 3.10 to 3.08 (which was not really necessary) you probably edited the install list and messed some packages there. Therefore the main image installed fine, but some packages did not. Also Sync 2 might have booted directly to safe mode out of which you got out by pulling the fuse (by the way, there are 2 packages which can get you in or out of the safe mode). Now if you like to tinker further, windows ce loads the flash interface upon boot. One way to circumvent this could be to connect the APIM to a pc through USB and see what shows up (maybe the internal storage and that would mean the interface loading can be renamed and bypassed, although I doubt that). Another way would be to code in flash a script to run explorer or whatever desktop shell is there. Activation of navigation is just adding 2 or 3 values in registry, of course done by someone who was able to boot to shell and compare values between 2 systems with/without nav. Either way, there is almost no interest in this system by enthusiasts and the only real benefit would be running easyconnected mirroring solution for free, instead of paying around 100$. I would say this platform is mostly dead, sorry.

Hi my friend...i have the same issue, did you find a solution ?????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TMCSMITH:
I have been trying to get my navigation system on my ford escape 2013 did the update but when I try to do the navigation patch it says bad file any help would be great and still have no idea how to figure out the checksum
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Enos68:
Check the .lst file on your update drive. Sometimes they mess up the dates or version coding. All should be the same. I had this once and manually changing the version to the correct on, it worked without a problem.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TMCSMITH:
We're would I find that at
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cybercyclops:
On the usb drive you are plugging into the center console
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TMCSMITH:
Ok will do thank you
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Enos68:
Hi, on the update drive, there is a folder "mydrive" or something similar. Do not remember exactly. It is listing the update files. which needs to be loaded to the system. It is a simple text file, so just open it with a text editor. Inside the first raws are the version, like 3.10 or whatever use upgrade to. In the versions is repeated in other raw too, but if that is different, you get an error message like what you were showing. The other problem might be, if the list is containing files which do not exist on your drive. If that is the case, either try to download the correct update package, or you can try to delete the lines from the file to match the list of files you have. But this might be risky. So if you have the version problem, that is easy, match the versions in all lines. If you have missing files, look for another download.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Coonflea:
I know this thread is probably dead but have done everything listed. Only thing I can get to work is navigation showing up in settings. Not sure if I had a bad file or what but says insert sd and nothing happens. Have done a master reset and nothing. I can give photos tomorrow if it helps. Vehicle info is 2013 Ford F-150 fx4 with the 4 quadrant touchscreen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
What's a 4 quadrant screen? You need to have an 8" touch screen with Sync 2 Version 3.08. ( 3.08 works best.) If you have the latest ver 3.10 - then it's a little harder. And, are inserting a Navigation USB for your area, A version for North America or the F version for Europe?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Format the USB with Fat 32 and then put the patch file on it and try again. If you Have Sync2 version 3.10 from Ford (the latest), then it's harder to enable Navigation but doable.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Coonflea:
Yes the 8 inch touch screen. Version 3.10 was already on the truck when I purchased it. North America. Maybe I installed the wrong navigation files.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Coonflea:
This Is currently what I have going on. I think I downloaded the EU version and not the NA.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
You probably need Riochim's Nav update file for Sync 2 Version 3.10. It's in this thread. I would read the pages here that are appropriate.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
Hi guys,,,

I have been stugling with enabling the Navigation on an Ford Fucus 2016.

I have enabled via forscan and installed the PNG file, and done the Master reset.

Still not seen the Navigation up in information panel, it asks me to put in Sd card anyway.

As I understand it should be installed all ready but not enable. Or do I have to Install Nav app for this version. If yes, where can I find that file.

Is There anything I missed to do, including some pictures also.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Sure. Put your finger on the unlock and enable it. Install Riochim's Navigation update file for Sync 2. Version 3.08 and then install the appropriate navigation SD card for your country.

Navigation update file here: https://mega.nz/file/xtQBCRhY#g4x3KVBFncz0MGraP0i_dNP6uS-M3s4RhTv85JsjozA

Use only the one for 3.08. Format a USB with Fat 32. Extract the downloaded file to your computer and then copy the Syncmyride folder (unopened) and the Autoinstall.lst file to the USB and apply to your running vehicle.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
Hi

Yes I will try this, I have done this also before all ready but will try it again.

As I'm in europe Sweden), is there an own version for us?.

As I can see It should be Unlocked as It says Navi Unlocked !!!!.

Thanks guys for you help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
I have installed the Navigation now, but still it's not showing up as installed, I'm not shure what yo mean by (unopened)?, I have tryed to unlock, when enable it, it says Navi Unlocked!!!, but on main screen I get the Unlock picture behind as shown in picture, what that can bee. not abel to click it. I also can see the Navigation menu in setting. And still shown tha compass.

It seems to install all 3 files from USB drive without any error and restart 2 times.

I also did master reset and tryed to install after but not success.

Is there something I miss when unlocking the .png file, I just dont know what may cause this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
In the Navigation update file if you click the folder SyncMyRide it will open to show all the files inside, but we don't want you to do that is why I said unopened. Your USB stick should only have two (2) entries - the SyncMyRide folder and the autoinstall.lst file. You said all three (3) files on the USB. What other file are you trying to install?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
Sorry for the confusion from me, I mean when it's installing the files from USB drive, but it installs all 4 files as I can see on screen without any issue or error and reboots after the first one, continues with the 3 after reboot. As you can see in pictures i the Unlock is on main screen still after installing the PNG file and Unlocking it, It says Navi Unlocked !!! anyway. But I can't see the Navi app in Information as installed. But I will create new USB and try more. Should engine be on or off when installing in some point. Mayby the PNG file has some issues, trying to find it and download an new one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Here's where it all started and what I used some years back to enable Navigation on Sync 2. Don't know if you followed the steps here but it might be worth it to go over again: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-enable-navigation-on-cars-with-sync-gen-2-and-myford-touch.3484473/

The files you downloaded should be good. It seems you are missing a step or not using the right Naviupdate file as provided by Riochim and your scrren should show it is version 5.67.6. One thing I haven't heard you mention is inserting a Ford Navigation card after you had made all the changes and updates.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
I have the F9 Sd card, not bought from Ebay, Spain some where :-), when I put that in, it does not do anything, just says insert Nav card in upper right corner. I just wonder the Navipatch.png file, is that to be generated for every car or is that download file for all cars.

Just saw when I have read the thread about excel and VIN numbers to fix it. I have tryed to follow those steps as I understand them. I will ave it go over again and see, thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
I downloaded the version from link you provided. When installing it stops with no space left or file USB drive issue. Same drive I installed the other sync package from and not complaining. I checked both downloads and 3.08 versions are same size, strange. I think some corrupted files in the link from first thread. Is there a way to reinstall 3.08 from beginning , or what suggestions.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
If the update stops as you say it is probably updated already. Sometimes on the Navipatch you have to repeat the process a few times to make it work - that may be it. I know how to bring it back to Sync 3.08 when you have the newer 3.10 installed, but I don't know how to reinstall 3.08 from itself. I don't think that's the problem here. You can look under licences and if Navipatch is in it should show an entry with a "0".

Here's a site that deals with enabling Navigation on Sync 2 ver 3.08 and also on Ver 3.10 and I have a lot of posts where we overcame some of the problems and there are links to files as well. It's 20 pages but the information was helpful in many cases: https://forscan.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6235&hilit=Navigation
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
"0" ?, UNder llicenses on the screen there is nothing, where exatly this "0" is seen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
The top line is what Navipatch puts on under licences. This the screen from my 2015 Lincoln MKC. This enabled Navigation for me. Disregard the lower line as later on I had Tedi-K send me a licence (?) as I thought this would replace the ./0 line but it didn't and didn't add anything. If you don't have the ./0 line then you haven't activated the Navipatch.

Try to re download and redo it: https://disk.yandex.com/d/i-JGQR8ZwLrLM.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] swetri:
I Downloaded new file, but still same issue. Is this file for 3.8? Are they same version for both versions 3.8 and 3.10, and same for European version.

What does the optional patch do?

Is that for European version ?.

Any harm to try that one?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
Hi All. I have a 2016 Ford Fusion that did NOT have navigation by default. I have followed almost every thread and every post I can find with no luck. I'm currently on 3.10, have installed the AG update, done the .PNG patch, changed the APIM configuration, got to the point it says "Insert Nav SD Card". I put the SD card in and no luck. After awhile, I then tried a master reset to see if that would do something. Still no luck. When I go to system information, I seem to be missing "Navigation Application Version: x.xx.x." This option is not there, even after unlocking the .png file. I also don't seem to have any "Software Licenses" installed either. I've been at this for a few hours and am not sure what else to try at this point. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do? Thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
Also want to be clear that I did downgrade to 3.8 and had no luck following the same steps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
Are you using Riochim's Navigation update files? His are the correct ones. Ones posted by Vincentka did not work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
Yes I used those. It’s almost like I’m missing the licensing, but not sure how to obtain it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
The png patch works as a license. If you are getting the insert sd card, the patch likely worked, however it may also be the sd card - depending on it's source. Another issue has been with the Ford Sync Ver 3.10 - many have had problems activating navigation. Did the Naviupdate AG file go in? The USB you use should be formatted with Fat 32 or Xfat and the update file should only have the SyncMyRide folder (unopened) and the Autoinstall.lst file. It sounds like you did everything you should but I repeat here in the event you missed something. If you are looking for a license file, then do a search for tedi-k on XDA and PM him about it. I activated Navigation opn a 2015 Lincoln MKC with Sync 3.08 years ago and later tedi-k put out a 3.10 (it's on this site) and I used that. I went back to 3.08 to put Ford's 3.10 on and there were a few issues but Nav worked so I went back to 3.08 and put Tedi-k's 3.10 file. During that time the Naviupdate AG came out so I put that on. Eventually i went back to 3.08 and put Ford's 3.10 back on.

Navigation worked in all the various moves I made.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
Thanks for the response. Yes, the AG file looks like it takes, but when I go to look at the software version, the navigation application is not there. Yes, those are the correct files that I have used in the USB. I will pm tedi-k and see if I get anywhere. If you come up with anything else you think I could try in the meantime, please let me know. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
You don’t happen to have a copy of the license file do you? I found the post, but the file was no longer available. I also have sent a message to Tedi-k. If not, not a problem, but thought I would at least ask.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lenko1:
See XbillA 's post on this site. https://xdaforums.com/t/myford-touch-navigation-activation-only.3368080/page-71. I don't think someone's license file will work for you unless you buy one created specifically for your vehicle. XbillA outlines some of the issues he went through till he got nav. enabled.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FFusion2016:
Okay thanks for the info! I haven't heard from Tedi-k unfortunately. So I'm at a bit of a standstill until I hear something. Thank you!

Hi, all. I know this is old stuff, but I am stuck. Installed the sync2 3.10 update from the Ford Website, used Forscan to enable Nav. Got nav app and navipatch put on and I now have the small compass and can insert my SD card and the car identifies my location fine. However, everytime I launch the actual navigation app it shows my location on a map, but, it only stays on for about 10-15 seconds and immediately dumps back to the home screen. I am confounded. At one point, I did attempt to roll back to 3.08, but that did not work and it got stuck in a continuous re-installation loop. I appreciate any guidance or advice that anyone has. I AM SO CLOSE TO HAVING IT WORKING GRRRRR!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cybercyclops:
If I remember correctly, I believe the last thing you have to do after you do the 3.10 update and then do the nav patch is do a soft reset go on the screen, go to the system, then reset after you enable the patch nav by going to background selecting it and when it's selected, click it on the preview image on the left hand side then do the reset
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] earl42:
Thank you cyclops, I did activate the nav patch that way many times. It even puts up a "nav activated" message, or something similar....no avail.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cybercyclops:
Did you also install the 3 sync navi files for 3.10 from a separate usb after getting the "nav activated"?

Try this. Take out the nav sd card, do the soft reset.

Go back and add the navi patch background and click it. The put in the USB drive with the 3 navigation install files on it, liking file below just in case. Once install is done do a soft reset, system --> settings --> reset (or something like that)

insert nav sd card and cross fingers
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] earl42:
Tried that, no avail. The App is on there, it finds my location. One thing I noticed, in the info screen where you can push the where am I button. It would show my location, then no location, then show it again. On and off repetitively. I wonder if it keeps losing the card or if the card is bad. And that is why the software keeps closing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cybercyclops:
Take the nav card out when it has your location and see if you get that same result or if it comes up on the screen with two options, sue sd card or services
