After a tough battle with my cheap ELM327, I got everything installed. Keep up the great walkthroughs!
Glad to hear you got it! Timing really is the hardest thing to get. I honestly try to click the module reset a millisecond before I see it pop up
Does Apple Carplay still work?
@@jgwoody1 Yes, no issues with both Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto and I’ve had the hacks installed since the video was published.
@@josesalgadojr.1791 awesome thanks! that was going to be a dealbreaker for me if not lol
Jose any tips for using ELM327 much interested , thanks for your time
Once you do the video player mod, where does the media come from? Are you having to put it all on a flash drive?
Great work as always man!
Thanks man!!
Hi would you have a diagram on how you set up your bcm bench tester and witch wiring connections you did for the ignition switch and smart data connection I would like to update an older sync 2 that I swapped for sync 3 in my Ford Edge without reconnecting it to the car many thanks
What are some mods that we can do with a jailbroken sync 3.4?
Like you show us how to, but what do we get?
you dont have to look at the GOD AWFUL blue background and buttons
THANKS SIR!! Cannot wait to see what all can be done with this jailbreak!
Lots of videos incoming 😁
Great vid as always Brian :)
Thanks! Got a couple more videos coming with your awesome tool in it!
Bro this is amazing! Can’t wait to try it out later
Heck yeah man!
I haven't done any of this before. Do you have a basic start from scratch video?
I did sign up for the Fmods forum.
Do you have a way to modify the sound system so it will let you have all of your bass when you turn the volume up on the latest sync 4?
Bit OT but do you know if there's a way to hack into the DSP of the Sync 2?
With the reset, is there risk to lose buttons and fuctions from sync 3?
Hello, I’m having an issue. I did the jail break then did the daemon and when I try to do the mods tools I get an abort message and says I need utserviceutility. Instructions on fmods says to download a synce package and pull that file and drag it to syncmymods folder. I can’t seem to find a sync3 package. Any help with sending me the file I need?
Is there anyway to go back to stock and restart the upgrade? Some of the Fmods didnt work and need to start over
Hello, New subscriber. I have a question. I have a 2015 Mustang GT with sync 3 system. Originally had a sync2 but upgraded. I just recently installed 3.4 using cyan labs syn 3 updater. By doing this does it jailbreak my sync3? Also do I have to jailbreak my sync3 with 3.4 to install wallpapers?
how would you recommend one go about screen mirroring to a sync device?
Hello, thanks for your video. Is it possible to reset the APIM module without Fordscan? If yes, can you tell me how please?
cual es el momento justo para conectar el usb 1 al vehiculo para que conecte con ford scan, por favor podrias explicarlo mejor no entiendo el video gracias,,, luego mi pregunta en que formato hacer la grabacion de los usb exfat, fat32 o NTFS, gracias,,,
what exactly does this do? what are the benefits? sorry for such question I just don't know, I am looking to be able to stream apps (All major Platforms) on my 2018 ford raptor with the 802a tech package, the sync 3 just seems a bit outdated & would like to be able to change themes & such. any help is appreciated. thank you.
Hi, love it, with this I was able to change my background. But one small problem 2018 f150 navigation voice doesn't work. any idea what I did wrong? Please help! I do a lot of travel I need my voice. When I connect my iPhone to it it does the same no voice
What can one do with fmods? What are the must have mods out there?
So I just did this per your video. How do I know if worked and what can I do with it now that it is jailbreaked?
@NaviUpgrade I have the Vgate Vlinker FS USB windows version. It is switch less. Would this work to do the hack? I have used this adapter to set Bambi mode and global windows up and down on my 2016 Ford Escape Titanium. Everytime someone says it has to be a switchable adapter I kinda get freaked out. So am I correct in saying I can use this Vgate Vlinker FS adapter to do anything a switched adapter can do? I hope my questions are not to confusing.
Does jailbreak needs to be installed ONCE ? if upgrading or downgrading to any Sync versions ?
Thank you for your work. I have completed the steps outlined in the video, however I am not sure it worked as my menus look exactly the same as it did prior. I did see the A-Team screens during install. Is there suppose to additional/optional menus available? I appreciate your time and assistance.
My vehicle:
F150 FX4 Lariart
Ford Sync 3 (updated in FEB 22)
This just allows you to install mods, the mods you want need to be downloaded from the fmods site
This works flawless on my SYNC3.4 (Build 21194). I installed some (but not all) of the F-Mods as well. One minor observation - the mod called "Enhanced Top Bar" is not (yet) compatible with my version of SYNC3. The video player is awesome! Now to rip some MP4s!
I did what his video said now how do I get MP4s to work
What does the jailbreak alow u to change and will my 2018 f150 be eligible for the 3.4 update without having to go on cynlabs
this doesnt wrok for me what do you have the flashdrive at exformat?
I just bought a new 2017 Edge SEL, is there a way to replace the screen(I think it's a 3-inch screen) with a larger one
Is this so you’re able to play videos from your phone ? I just purchased a 2021 ranger tremor and I am trying to be able to play video and Apple play from my phone to my stereo
Will this work in order to add navigation (specifically) on a 2020 Edge with the SYNC 3 and 8" SCRN W/APPLINK?
Love your videos! Amazed how you find all this information.
Is there any chance you verified this jailbreak works properly on 2023 Fords with the 27-in screen tech package?
I just picked up a Ford Explorer ST and would love to jailbreak it but I've only seen this work on the smaller touch screens
If you're referring to the portrait layout display then yes it works. I just did it to my ExST
I have a 2016 F150. Should I install the newest sync update on the ford website before following the jailbreak procedure?
How do you hook it up to bench and get the usb to work?
Hi will the OBDLink EX FORScan OBD Adapter work with Australia ford ranger fx4 mk2 px2 2018
I went through the steps. One thing that did happen with my installation was that it froze on the dameon install screen. It finally restarted, I put the 3rd USB in, and I disconnected from forscan. How do I know the installation was successful?
@naviupgrade I have a new to me 2017 MKZ with a recently upgrade to 3.version installed.
I had fmods on my explorer and worked the first time to install it and worked great thereafter.
However, on this radio, there is no APIM Module as far as I can see. Any suggestions to do the install?
I can reset the Radio with the power button and skip forward button but the software fails to install
Suggestions as to why there is no APIM Module? I know these radios do in fact have an APIM attached to the back of the screen.
Hi naviupgrade hope you can help, I have forscan hooked up to my ford transit custom 2020, there is no apim module detected. Do you know if this hack can still be done without accessing the module.
Thanks
Can u program/ control charging speeds at level 2-3 charging ? Like a software update
Like wise climate control from phone app
Will that works on Mondeo mk5 2016?
Can you install a sync 3 on a non ford vehicle? I wanna get one from for my Gmc
Hello, have you been able to solve the video playback problem related to sync4?
Have a sync 1 - 2015 Ford Focus...so will this do anything as mine is your basic sync 1
Hello
I've recently installed new mod on the 3.4.21265 but didn't like the mod so I've downgraded to 3.4 21194, hoping to jailbreak break this using the stick1,2 and 3 usb, but unfortunately I cannot get the 1st stick to install, do I need to format the Sync 3 from fresh ? If so where do I find this or can you send me link ? Once this has been formatted do I then install 3.4 21265 then jailbreak this using 1,2 and 3 stick usb ?
Many Thanks
I don’t receive an error code when starting with stick 1. Not sure what I’m doing wrong
Would it work with the bluetooth iOS version of elm327?
Sorry if this is a bit unrelated, but this seems like the place where people might be knowledgeable about the subject. Is it possible to flat out replace a SYNC-1 4 inch unit with an android radio? I hate this thing, and want an aftermarket head unit but I can't find ANY resources on the matter.
anything for the focus 2009 sync 1.0 ... hacks ... updates ... ???
the video player is not available for 10" screen ?
Great video well done...One question do you know if I can use a chromebook for the navi downloads or will a windows pc be needed?
You can download and create the USBs from any computer
this isnt working on my 2019 F150. my sync model might not be the correct one? my sync wasnt in the range it was showing on the download link, could this be why its not working?
Does this work on sync 3 without navigation?
Hiya Brian, would you happen to know to fix Sync 4 Apims black screen? seems to be common. at ford theres some values that need to be changed before doing updates and if they are not done the update seems to kill the picture output. there are vids saying volume down & forward button for 10 seconds but its beyond that. forscan still reads & edits apim as per usual. apparently module update does nothing. thanks
Can’t wait to try this on my GT350.
Hi
Can I modify sync 2 to sync 3 Ford Explorer 2014 Middle East?
hello I have a problem with my module, I get the Ford emblem and then a black screen, I removed the battery for a few minutes, I reset Syng with diagnostics and again a black screen, the radio works, but I can't adjust the frequencies, the disc is inside and I can't get it in, but it reads it and my music plays did they have any way to flash the module and what the flashing is done with
Is it Possible to add an 5 or 10 band Equalizer App ? I've asked ford about it for future updates. but no answer.
This is awesome! Thanks for the video!
Could the reboot be done without Forscan, via the Seek Up (a.k.a Next Track) and power button reset? I understand getting the timing right may be more difficult, just wondering if it's possible though.
This is a good question but honestly I don't think so... timing really has to be spot on for this method to work. Pretty much this method is using a vulnerability in QNX to sneak in the thing that allows everything to get unsigned, allowing the Daemon and Mods Tools to be installed.
It can be done by cutting power also such as pulling a fuse or battery, but for the cost of a cheap ELM327 adapter it's really better to just do that :)
So somebody in the CyanLabs discord was able to make this happen but had to start pressing before putting the USB in. Probably very hard to get the timing perfect using this method
Yes basically we just did it with the buttons timing is key
So long as you already have a laptop or any computer near your car that's able to run forscan, it's worth having. The cable I bought was the more expensive one at about $60. There was actually a cheaper one. If I remember it was $30-$40. Forscan itself was free unless you want the beta and even that was $12. I don't know if beta was necessary for this mod. I already have beta because I needed to reprogram the tcm.
If you own a newer Ford or Lincoln and do any of your own work Forscan and the cable are absolutely worth it. It will pay for itself as soon as you encounter an issue.
911 warning error keep pop up every we start after upgrade to Sync 3.4. Any idea how to remove or turn it on? Thanks
hi
I have sync3 with navigation and in home screen is compass not navigation can enable
Hi Brian, It's been awhile since I updated to 3.4 but the last update from ford has my radio resetting to a FM station and loses my phone history, Can i update back to an earlier version of 3.4 thanks in advance if you have the time to answer
can you do this with one usb stick?
Hi, what parameter has to be changed in order to enable multimedia without ignition, no key, you open the car and just switch multimedia on and it will stay on until you switch it off. Please advise forscan settings.
What will this do on a 2022 APIM with My20 enabled
I finally find the error infor here . My 2018 focus with Sync3.0.20204 one day the Navi show me "Navigation is not functioning properly". I didn't touch anything just suddenly one day moring became like that. Is it the software issue? or hardware? I haven't go to the dealer to check. I want to know If I am able to fix my self? I have Obd wire and forscan ready.
Great thing👍🏼 I'm very interesting to do the same in my office. 😂 I'm sad to sitting in a car and driving around for an hour. To do this in an office or kitchen is much comfortable. Any explanation how to build it by my own or where to buy? Please 😊
do we need to format usb to exfat?
So.. what are possibilities of the jailbrake, what do you gain with it?
How can I keep my cameras on for longer time?
Is a hack for sync 4 for the mach e possible?
Hey I heard about you and I wanted to check it out man I got a question I just got a Ford 2016 explorer and it got the sink too and I wanted to upgrade it to the sync 3 because it doesn't have the navigation and I don't have like heated seats I hear the steering so what do you suggest should I still do it cuz I really want it I am what would be the best one to get I don't know if there's any certain model or anything to get out there cuz when I looked on eBay and Amazon they had the sync 3 for the F-150 and I was wondering what do you suggest but I'm going to watch all your videos and I'm going to tell a couple of my friends about it

Thanks!
Hi, thanks for the vid.
I can not get this to work...
Installing the first stick does not open a window or dialog on forscan. My laptop just makes a notification sound to let me know a USB has been plugged in. The sound keeps happening if I leave the USB in.
When prompted to shut of engine, do I do that or just click the yes button. You are on a bench so this wasn't explained.
When trying stick 2, do you start your engine first? FORscan prompts me to turn aux on but do not start engine... Again, not the same on a bench.
Hello. It went without a problem. Cool tutorials you make. I have a question, how to make an additional background behind the station logo and colorful logos of preset radio stations ???
Great to hear @Artur! I'll work on a tutorial vid on that soon 🙂
@@NaviUpgrade Ok, thank you for the information and I'm waiting for the tutorial and other new useful videos 😃😃
Working well, thanks for good job.
Just I've installed video player and possible to playback just mp4 format. Did I do something wrong?
Latest update allows playing of MKVs!
Can you let the device update still from ford even after jailbreaking it ? or is it like a ipad where you cant or it will not work again .... becuase i get the autmatic update going off everytime i turn on the car ?
Man.... longwaited 🥰🥰🥰
Yessss! 🙌🙌🙌
hi in your 3 usb you dont copy utserviceutility , on instruction it says : in order to install the mod you need an additional binary file called utserviceutility do i need to add utserviceutility ?
What if you already have version 3.4 and will this allow you to play video files and not just hear the audio from the video files on a USB drive
What should I see when I finish install mod?
what mod tools will be installed with this hack
Okay so I was able to get a far as USB #2 to install but then I can't get #3 to install it says it recognize the stick but didn't index it etc just sits wtf am I missing does it take quite awhile for last stick to load up and what are you supposed to do with forscan when it says to turn car off then back on etc while the usbs are doing there thing any help would be great I've been trying this for weeks here and their and I have to turn my tune off each time I'm just pissed it's so close but no dice. It shows A Team installed already remove stick to reboot I do but it just sits as faded screen I turn car off and on still nothing
Can I do this on a ford maverick my dude?
Hi can do for toyota 2019 carplay suport

Will FordPass still work after a jailbreak?
Thank you for your videos, I will be sharing them with my friends from the Ford Fusion and Mondeo groups here in Brazil.
With your videos I left my sync3 exactly as I wanted. Videos, Custom Wallpapers and much more.
Congratulations for your work!
Thanks for sharing! ❤️ Glad you liked the video!
como conseguiu desbloquear a sync para rodar video?
Ford kuga 2018 st line its work ??
What are the benefits of jailbreaking sync 3?
Can i do this of i have 3.4 leesdy installed onn kuga 2017
Brian, thanks for showing me how to update to 3.4
No worries 😁
Couple quick questions, should i update to 3.4 from 3.0 first? And at 5:10 forscan says to turn off ignition did you simulate that or did you just let sync reboot on its own? Just don't wanna mess anything up i can help it. Thanks in advance!
Hey there! If you want, you can do it either way... I've got a video coming out tomorrow morning showing you how to update and keep your jailbreak. Obviously the easier method would be to update and then jailbreak. FORScan will automatically reboot Sync 3, you don't really need to do an ignition cycle which will help save some time.
@@NaviUpgrade Awesome thanks man!🤙🏼 About to start the update process. Great videos by the way very informative. Gotta love jail breaking tech😎
@@NaviUpgrade will this work with sync 3.4 without navigation?
@@kevinjohnston5261 yessir
Why cant i see APIM module on Transit connect????
How did you power up sync on bench? Do you have got tutorial or can give me some more details how to do it? Thanks
One of the only things I keep secret 😜 it's really just an Arduino with a script running the boot signal.
oh and my one I've done successfully plays Avi too. Thank you so much! I could not get my background screens working. installed the mod, i made the usb and made the correct sub folders. not sure why.
Awesome - Does this work on the my2021 version? the one cyan says don't update? thanks
Absolutely
Hi there, After first usb my second usb gives me always the message usb not supported please remove? Maybe you know why, thanks in advance.
Can you provide links or information as to what this will allow you to do? Im seeing various benefits of doing so, in the comments but mostly curious if I’m missing details
Of course I would like to access videos… etc while driving but one Of my concerns / problems is I would like to have the same access to sync 3 as when a passenger is seated in the passenger seat. Does this fix that concern?
I definitely suggest signing up on the FMods forums and seeing all that is possible. I definitely have quite a few more videos to make on this subject and I can't really type out all the things you can do with this 😅
@@NaviUpgrade
Please please please give a video if there isn't one. 2016 Escapes are a nightmare. I've bought every gadget I could and had to return them all because it's just locked. They show how easy it is for the regular radios to be set but not this monstrosity. Sync is my only issue with this tiny vehicle.
