SYNC Update Available on Focus!!!

[georgegren]

I just updated. Screen now shows Climate as off, but can control settings on screen regardless.

Temp now next to clock. Nice.

Navigation input now way faster when typing addresses. It is worth it just for that. It drove me crazy with the previous version. You would have to type a letter and count to two before you tried to put the next letter in.

I got the confirmed install screen, but the update page shows there is an available update.

More info to follow after a day off use tomorrow...

Refreshed the Sync update page and it now shows I am up to date...

I was also wondering the same. I don't see any differences in file sizes from what I downloaded just now from the one I downloaded earlier this afternoon.

I remember when the V3.0.2 update came out, the dealer flash drive had one more file than the one that "leaked" on DropBox a few weeks earlier (I forget if it was different from the one sent in the mail...) Not that it matters, my dealer ended up re-flashing mine as a recall even though I told them I had already done the update myself.

EDIT: For what it's worth, I've updated 2.10->2.11->3.0.2(DropBox)->3.02(dealer) and soon to have this one.

Sold. I'm installing it on my way home tonight.

WHOA, wait?

We can update to 3.2.2 without needing a new memory card for navigation?!

CRAP; I'm going to the car now.

Yup. Navigation seems better than ever!

Maybe I'll finally start using my $795 navigation instead of my cell phone!

Someone with an iPhone would be more qualified to comment but my understanding is that iOS 6 has some unresolved Bluetooth issues.

In other words, the problem with text messaging is not caused by your MFT system.

I did the update with a master reset and delayed reboot. Still no climate. :(

However, I did remember the climate control box was superseded on Ford parts a while ago. For those that have working climate, can you turn on rear defrost with voice commands? I have never been able to do this.

Actually, I think I'm having issues using voice controls with climate as well.

EDIT: Sweet Jesus. Superseded:

7/21/2011
8/26/2011
3/19/2012
7/23/2012 (current)

My build date was May 2011.

The bug with the climate control is completely obvious. It clearly should have never been made available for download regardless of the competency of the software engineering team.

Is there any non-anecdotal evidence of this? Anyone have some MD5 sums or anything for comparison?

EDIT: Here's the MD5 hashes for the files from the current Focus update. Does anyone have them for the non-Focus version?
