6.1.4.0 or 6.14.0?

Sorry. Corrected.

Time to keep tabs on everyone’s progress to Blue Cruise 1.3!

The voting options aren't mutually exclusive and apply to different things. For example, ECG-24.2.4.9 applies to the GWM module. A person might get that update today but still have an ancient version of sync (such as power-up 4.2.2), something newer, but still old such as 6.2.1 (aka 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE) or be up to date with 6.14.

As well, the OTAs might get pushed in seemingly random order, which could make a very out of date vehicle look like it has everything new, or making a car with most updates appear very out of date.

So... what is the poll voting on?

It’s simple. Where are you now?

Pittsburgh, PA. I'm not sure how that relates to OTAs...

Oh.. firmware-wise? That's what I'm confused about. The most recent OTA I received (23-PU1103-NAT-VCE) is actually a year old but my car installed it last night. However, the OTA I got before that one (ECG-24.2.4.9) is only a month old and my car installed it 2 nights ago.

So would I answer with the "newest" firmware (based on release date), or would I answer with the "most recently installed" firmware (realizing that the most recently installed might be years old, but was only recently installed due to Ford-OTA-quirks?)

Your car tells Ford where it is at and any problems it has. Then Ford transmits to the car the appropriate update that it needs. Not all are the same. Not all cars have the same options, parts, or subscriptions. Making software work with all different things is a real difficult chore. Especially the job 1's vs todays. We all seem to want the newest and best, but maybe we should step back a bit and ask ourselves, does the vehicle work and do what I need or not.

WOW it has been an absolute blitz of updates over the past few days. Went from getting the Tesla charging update back in March then nothing until a few days ago.

Went from 24.2.4.9 then 24.2.4.9.1 to 6.14 today. Updated poll.

I just got 6.14.0. Yesterday I got ECG-24.4.9.2.1, and the day before that I got ECG-24.4.9.2. The OTAs are coming in Fast and Furious!

Exactly the same for me. 06-30-2023 build date GT.

6.14 just rolled in!

What a big update!

 

[ArthurDOB]

Got that one today, too. That is one dusty screen, my friend! ?

I guess the OTA hold up was to get 2023s onto the latest Sync. Hopefully new updates will start rolling for the rest of us now.

Just got 6.14.0 yesterday. Seems great, but I have one issue with it. In combining USB and Bluetooth, when I play music using USB there is no longer a little button next to the album art that shows you the album it came from, the folder it's in, who wrote the song, etc.

I realize most people probably don't pay attention to this or probably don't even use USB to listen to music, but I fill in that metadata on my music files and really like having it available on the screen whenever I want to access it. I don't understand why they would take that out. It doesn't seem like it would be a problem for anybody for it to be there. I used the message button to express my displeasure to Ford.

I tapped all over the screen and opened up the one button that is still there, but that is still only device information and re-indexing the USB drive. There seems to be no other way to see this information and it's really disappointing that it's gone.

If I'm missing something, someone please let me know!

Went from 24.2.4.9 then 24.2.4.9.1 to 6.14 today. Updated poll.

In the past few days, I went from ECG-24.2.4.9 to 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE. Interesting how different updates are pushed out for different vehicles. Would love to see the 6.14 update come my way soon.

I suspect those 2023's who got 6.14 over the last 7 days already had 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE (aka 6.2.1) on their APIM and so were queued for ECG-24.2.4.9, ECG-24.2.4.9.1 and 6.14 (which also goes to the APIM.)

The rest of the 2023's (who got anything at all) were queued to get ECG-24.2.4.9 and 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE. Perhaps we'll see ECG-24.2.4.9.1 and 6.14 soon.

(Did anyone with a 2023 get _both_ 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE and 6.14 in the past week?)
