Install of the new camera was simple. It took me about 2 hours from pulling out the tools to getting it all back in. I followed the same process as this http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/17508-reverse-cam-woes/page-2?do=findComment&comment=129556but instead of a dremel I just used a small drill bit and it reversed the screw right out from behind. Screwed it back in by hand and then put a small zip tie just in case around the bracket. I used an OBDLink MX and FORscan to recalibrate the camera. Simple as connecting to my laptop and selecting the service action to calibrate the camera. Took 10 mins start to finish to get it completed. My camera is now 100% functional with lines and zoom.

The developer built in the camera calibration as a service function with the latest beta release. Should be simple. I have the camera and an OBDLink MX bluetooth on the way. Will update when I can get it all done. FORscan 2.3.2 beta, 2016-06-01 release notes + Service function "Rear camera calibration" for: F-150 2011-2013 model year Edge 2011-2013 model year Explorer 2011-2013 model year Flex 2013 model year Taurus 2013 model year Lincoln MKX 2011-2013 model year Lincoln MKS 2013 model year Lincoln MKT 2013 model year

All I found was this thread that has the same username http://forscan.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2087

It's the camera failing. It's failing on a lot of Edges. Can replace DIY but still needs a dealer calibration to restore all functionality. Sucks.

Using FORscan you are able to reset the camera and get the lines back after replacing the camera? Quick tutorial would be nice (skipping the install of ODB adapter and just using FORscan for this specific task). Thanks!

There is a crash that happens when you have multiple phones paired. The audio stream drops every 3-5 seconds for a half a second then resumes. Eventually the entire system lock up completely and you need to do a full power down reset. As soon as I delete the second paired phone all the problems go away. It appears it keeps trying to connect to the second phone while streaming from the first and it's not there. Then it crashes. The new software regressed this functionality as I have kept everything the same. Paired with the same phones. Other than this it is much better.

No you can't. The nav will not function until you get the SD card within a few days.

As an FYI when I updated I just left my car running at work with the keys in it. I locked the doors with the keypad. I checked it at 40 mins and it was done.

Unzip the package and copy all the contents over. The MD5 file is just used to validate the package is corretly downloaded and hasn't been tampered with etc.

Nothing to worry about. Same file Ford will be releasing later this week apparently. Just download and check the MD5.

I really want this update but don't have time to waste at the dealership. Can someone hijack their dealer's flash drive for 30 mins and upload the ISO :D

Yeah it's correct. In versioning binaries it usually goes first field is major relase then second is incremental fixes within that major release. Sometimes there is a 3rd field for internal builds tracking and even sometimes a 4th field.

They didn't properly plan or didn't have developers who were capable of programming openGL. I'm sure they had to scrap plans as they were even able to get required features to even work. If they hired good developers from the start the code would have been much cleaners and proper the first time. It's always a mess fixing bad code. Easier to start fresh sometimes if you know what your doing and have the proper time.

Ok thanks though! If anyone has one currently please take a quick ISO image of their drive and upload it somewhere like skydrive/dropbox/sharefile/etc and PM people who are requesting it. Would be much appreciated. I don't use my nav system and would love to avoid a trip to the dealer while I wait for my USB drive to come.

Dingo can you take an ISO image of the flash drive and upload it to dropbox or something similar and PM me the link! That way can create my own usb drive
