Working Sync 2 to Sync 3 upgrade. Alright guys, so this won't be anywhere near a full-featured guide as I didn't plan ahead to take pictures, but I have a fully working Sync 3 installed in my 2015 ST2. This should provide inspiration for anyone else interesting in Android Auto/Carplay/Higher quality HU. Everything is working: steering wheel. 3.10: The new 3.10 software update for SYNC with MyFord Touch systems includes all the improvements from previous updates, plus additional changes to accommodate new and updated customer devices, such as: Hazard switch illuminates on Focus / Escape with ignition off and park lamps on. Next Track / Previous Track controls from SYNC touchscreen.

I want to give my Sync system an update, since it's an older model.
It says it's currently running Sync 3 version 2.2. Is 2.2 the latest/final version for the 2017 model year?
It won't download anything new over Wi-Fi, and the file from Ford looks like It's Sync 3.0.. an older version than what I already have. A little confused here.
Syn3 Updater2.0 will allow you to update the stereo of your 'Blue Oval Badged' car and automatically prepare the USB Drive ready for you to insert into your car.
This application prevents user error from wrongly formatted or partitioned USB drives and will ensure the correct update method is used.
New 2.7 Features
- Profiles to manage individual configurations per car etc.
- Central log management to view all your log files
- News and Changelog built in to the app to see all the latest changes
- More responsive design allowed for better resizing
- Much Much More!
New 2.0 Features
- Better handling of the downloading and copying resulting in less instability.
- A brand new UI written in WPF rather than the outdated WinForms, this should scale better on scaled computers.

- Open source, available on GitHub.

- Option to unselect individual packages if desired.
- Option to install “With Nav” or “Without Nav”.
- Multiple validation processes (filesize and CRC checks) to ensure downloads and copies are successful.
- Detailed information for each release showing the “APPS” version and the “MAPS” version specific to your region.
- Allow upgrading to newer versions of the software than officially supported by your car
- Automatic update check to ensure you are on the latest version.
- Multilanguage capable (translations are crowd sourced)
- Uploading log function to allow easy troubleshooting
Here are some of the benefits of upgrading to the latest software
- Potentially Android Auto navigation on the small screen (IPC).
- Much snappier and more responsive user interface.
- A nicer looking stock blue theme.
- Newest map data for navigation.
- If you update your stereo firmware (in addition to the software) you can also get Radio logos and Calm Mode.
- Much better looking media interface.
