Did anyone succeed in reading all parameters of Mach-e 2025 using a OBDII scanner?

Depends on what you mean by all. I used Car Scanner and an OBDII adapter. Seems there are an awful lot of parameters missing, especially around battery health

I agree sort of, i use car scanner and mine gives me SOC and SOH of main baytery, also gives SOC of 12v, cannot give SOH due to insuficient electronics connected ???

I also have the same question. Someone here posted that Forscan has some support for the 2025s. Have you tried using Forscan lite on your phone?

My understanding is Ford encrypted a lot on the 2025s and am also curious if anyone has had success making changes to them with Forscan.

There is also the question of when we are going to be able to use it with ABRP. Currently no.

Ford added TRON encryption to certain module on the 2025 Mach E, but I don't think TRON prevents FORScan. The 2024/2025 F150 uses TRON and those guys are able to get in and change stuff around.

The problem with TRON is with firmware flashing itself as FDRS is needed to re-authorize TRON if it breaks after a module with TRON is updated. Also, you cannot use firmware that requires TRON on vehicles that don't have it and vice versa (which is one of the reasons why we can't FAFO with the 1.5 IPMA software from it on these and other BC equipped vehicles).

I would recommend anyone with a 2025 Mach E that cannot properly use FORScan to reach out to FORScan support and send them the VIN so they can add it to their database.

Edit: I know of one person who did install an IPMA with TRON and on a 2021 F150 without TRON and it worked. However, this person has well above-average knowledge and talent when it comes to these things. I would not know where to begin to make that happen.

Do you happen to know what would let you know if you have the encryption or not? Did it come after a certain date? Was it a particular model? Just wondering. First new Ford so not familiar but do have a Anyscan A30M and can confirm it does not currently work with my 2025 Mach-E. It does have the Mach-E in its database, but not the 2025 model yet (don't know if they plan it either). I have forscan lite but have not tried it with my ELM327 scanner yet. (not holding breath) Was waiting to see what can be done with the 2025 first, before purchasing another scanner.

Update: still have not tried the ELM327 (Veepeak) but I did get the A30M to work. Was able to get DTC's from most modulus. Some did not work and special functions don't work but its something. I just had to manuel add it as a MY24.

All 2025 Mach E's have TRON encryption on certain modules. PCM, ABS, PDM/DDM, IPMA, GWM and TCU all have TRON. Not familiar with Anyscan or how they work, tbh. I only use FORScan (and FDRS).
