My version says 2.0 and the ford owner page connected to my VIN says I have the latest version? Feels like I am a couple versions behind here but according to ford I have the latest?

Mine says the same thing. Wonder if it has anything to do with having a Sony head unit vs non Sony.

I gave up. I followed the instructions to the letter and the truck wouldn’t recognize the USB even after I reformatted the USB and tried it two more times.

Mine is now v3.0 as of this morning. I didn't do anything else since I checked it yesterday, just hopped in this morning and noticed the home screen was different. I used FAT32 formatting FWIW if you decide to try again, maybe try a different flash drive if you have one?

Did you try exfat or fat32 for format?

2 flies at root and a folder with contents is all you should see

Stupid question: Did you guys start up your Rap to do the upgrade or just hit the "start" button to turn on accessory power?

(sorry if someone already posted this)

Upgrade just completed and successful. Will report back after a couple of weeks if there are any issues.

Upgraded from Sync 3 v2.0

Process I followed: formatted flash drive for exFAT, copied files, used flash drive with activity indicator (important for me!); started Raptor, inserted flash drive in first slot, upgrade took 20 mins.

Post upgrade observations: wifi pop-up, heated steering wheel icon on home screen

You can do either way - it was simple enough to do it on my drive to work one morning [emoji1303]
