    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    I have a 2021 Explorer ST and no issues. A Sync update I believe will remove all of the installed mods, but it will not remove the jailbreak itself, so a simple update won't quite get you back to stock.

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    Yes and no. To install the mod, you have to "jailbreak" Sync 3 which technically does void your warranty, but my understanding is that the void only applies to Sync 3/Infotainment if you end up breaking something.... for example, even if you install the jailbreak and this mod, Ford cannot deny...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    New version of Beta2 released that should help with these issues when coming from alpha. See Telegram Sync 3 Mods & Apps Thread. Try it out and let us know. Make sure to have your original stock files placed in backup folder of new beta2 before running.

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    You definitely are on 23188 right and not an older build? The error about mm_cfgbuilder is normal going from certain alpha versions to beta because of the new patch to add the Ford icon to CarPlay UI.

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    We are looking into this... Going from alpha to beta worked for us so something else is definitely going on with the hash check code then. Hopefully we can get this fixed in the next beta release.

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    The instructions on the forum are to take your backup files on the USB made by the alpha during original install (those are the stock ford files) and then place them into the backup folder on a beta2 USB stick before installing. Set restore=1 on beta two autoinstall.sh, set your menu bar...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    OK yeah a lot of times the cable is the problem. I ran CarPlay fullscreen yesterday for 2 hour drive and no disconnects at all or issues. Was with a 16 Pro.

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    Not a matter of couldn't but that they just didn't want to. The crazy thing is, all of the code to do "fullscreen" projection is already part of the binaries they included in Sync! We didn't have to fully replace binaries or update to new versions. So Ford themselves easily could have enabled...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    There are some very minor things that can be done but actually improving Sync and taking over Ford's job of maintaining it would require source code access, which we likely will never have. Ford would have to open-source it. All of this work so far has been manually de-compiling binaries and...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    As @TntSeries said, easily reversible to stock and only affects AA/CP anyway. A Sync3 update will overwrite the mod but it can easily be reinstalled by just putting USB stick with mod back in after update. That is unless Ford's update changes the AA/CP binaries then we would need to release a...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    This is something the team very briefly discussed as a desired "next project" but it is wayyyy more involved. The RVC is part of lower level system processes because it is a safety critical component. In fact, it loads the camera view before Sync is even fully booted. You can see this if you...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    Yes, but we are working on a version that allows the user to configure if they want to hide the bottom and/or top bars in Sync if they want. If you hide both you get an awesome true full screen view with no Sync UI elements shown during projection. See below test I just ran. We are working out...

    Fullscreen Android Auto/CarPlay Mod Is Here for Sync3 10P Screen!! [FMods Team 10 Pees]

    Hey all, ilovepancakes95 from Team 10 Pees here. On the Fmods Forum/Telegram with the help of some recent new people attacking the project, especially Kaz Wolfe and Pascal Kolkman we have finally (after YEARS of work) developed a mod to get Fullscreen Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Peter P...

    Pixelated screen future issue?

    This happened on mine a little bit before the camera feed decided to just go out completely to be a blue screen... which is caused by the rear camera module electrical issue there is a recall out for. Did you get the recall fix already? Did you check your VIN against Ford's recall database to...

    Front camera activation

    This would be like a couple more lines of code to add probably so why it already doesn't do it is beyond me. Like I've said to people in the past, these vehicles seem to be designed always by people who never sit in them, let alone actually drive it, even once.

    Nav map "Auto" zoom button/feature disappeared.

    For anyone seeing this in future, I figured it out. It is indeed a bug I believe but only occurs when the nav map display mode is set to "Highway Exit Info" setting. If changed from that mode to "Full Map" the auto button does display after zooming in or out manually. Guess Ford forgot to make...

    SYNC Build 21194 Is Released by Ford

    Same here. There is 1 major road in my area that just shows no traffic data even though it used to before, but beyond that, this update fixed the SYNC traffic issues caused by previous 2 updates.

    Nav map "Auto" zoom button/feature disappeared.

    Has anyone else's "Auto" button for zoom on the nav map disappeared? I was using nav one day, manually changed the zoom with plus and minus buttons and usually the "Auto" button pops up under those to return to auto zoom where the map zooms based on speed you drive. But, one day I hit the plus...
