Do any of you use CarPlay? If so, do you have issues with the mic volume on phone calls being very low?

If you're not sure, while connected to CarPlay, open the voice memo app on your phone and record a clip counting or whatever. When you play it back it will either be perfectly clear or very quiet.

Thanks to all of you who helped. I was able to upgrade to 3.4 and get climate control back. Wonder what else I should modify???

Lol. Once you start tinkering it gets addicting cause you're in there wondering what else you can enable that would be a neat feature to have.


So far I have enabled, Changed boot screen to the Raptor screen, Bambi mode, Disabled front Hyper-Blink for LED bulb install, Double Honk, Disabled IPC welcome screen, disabled driver seatbelt charm, FX4 screen, Fog light corner mode, Enabled Alarm sensor option, changed keyfob alarm button behavior to double press, Entry ambient light color changed to red, Enabled Frost Tell-Tale, Enabled Front-Rear Parking Aid, Enabled Average speed display, and Enabled Secure Park.

The next thing I will probably do is tackle the speed limit sign reading and see if I can get that working.

If this is true, a map update will be coming this month. June 29th..
Crossing finders.. Their web site is as lame as their software. Nothing like being cryptic. That could be June 29th of 2018 for all we know.

Haven't seen anything today. Says 2019-1 is the current version

The speed limit sign reading is easy to do (I can also verify it works) and it's a fun little kick-ass feature.

I'm a coward.....waiting for the official update from Ford.....
Come-on Ford.......we'd all prefer earlier rather than later July...!!!

Agree on the addicting part! I've done most of the changes you've done and have the speed limit sign reading working ( kind of a fun little thing). Also ditched my low beams on DRL and just run parking and fogs. I have an XLT so I don't have the fancy LED lights. I did put switchbacks in my front turns and love them.

19Q1 is the latest available. That's what was loaded on the map update site today as well.
Does that mean that the updates posted today are NA119 compared to the NA118 currently installed which would make them a year newer or is this still the same update from November 2019? I downloaded and unzipped and the file dates are Dec 2019 and one from Mar 2020.

I just want to be sure before I go through the install process.

Correct. The 19Q1 is a year newer than 18Q1.

Lying sacks of donkey poop. Same maps.... I'll wait to see what Cyan comes up with.
It was sending out 18Q1 prior. 19Q1 is the latest in production for NA. I don't even have 20Q1 yet, and likely won't for a few months due to the data creation process.

I have 19.1 ..... but the web page up until today said new maps Jun 29.... now, that message is gone. Ran my vin and such, no updates. Then why all the confusion? They’re over due.

19Q1 only launched today on that site. That’s what the new maps notification was referencing. It only offered 18Q1 prior. If you have 19Q1 already then you’re up to date as far as map data goes.

You are not a coward for waiting. That is the better approach. I've been involved in well over 100K remote software updates to sophisticated terminals and have dealt with recovery when things go south. It used to be an enjoyable challenge, now it's just a PITA and headaches identifying and resolving the created issues.
