Not exactly, the Terry unit I have (my test unit) has a Flash memory chip that "doesn't last long" when refreshed with the full package... But there's enough good space to load the SD driver into - and then put softlinks pointing to SD on it.
I almost never see it have issues now that the main partition is so empty. |

I'm going to post Q&A stuff that I get asked (not in the thread) if it's relevant...
Quote:
It's a slightly different story though, had my software been around for years... You could have had a perfect backup (back when) and once a year run the test... Any small corruptions would have been fixed, and a reboot would correct any other detected issues. Edit: thinking about it, doing it before disconnecting the battery will tell you if there are corruptions - by reviewing the repair.log on USB in Notepad++. If there are, might be worth going out and buying a battery saver device to change the battery? Just a thought. |

Seems I've better documented stuff here than in my own FG2 area on my C:\
I came back here today to get the hex signatures needed to remove the navigation license check, thinking there's maybe one more "repair" recore program to fix "broken by bad Ford vs Sumitomo relationship stuff" while backing up existing programs & maps and copying/replacing existing ones with any new ones that somehow get put on a USB stick in root. New ones (2022/Q2) are due in 3 months... Kelly watch the stars. |

*** Warning *** This is Alpha level software and may not work. Has not been tested on anything earlier than 2013 firmware. Instructions: Extract the archive to an empty FAT32 USB stick.. (Preferably one with a blinky LED) Insert the USB stick into the FG2 and wait a bit.. Running "Recore" via FG2ICCComms.exe will make a backup of navi [old]content folders, but do nothing else. Putting a new file in the USB stick's root directory (.fbl/.fda/.poi/.spc) and runnign Recore will... 1. Check the navi executable to see if it's compatible, or if it's already been "fixed" 2. Stop the navigation software 3. Fix the executable if it's compatible, and alter the manifest file(s) to match (or remove the map checks) 4. Backup existing files to the USB "oldcontent" directory 5. Delete any matching map content for the file prefix/suffix it sees in the USB's root 6. Install new map content that was detected in the USB root 7. Reset the unit if needed File prefixes that are detected are: Australia.. Basemap.. New_Zealand.. NewZealand.. File suffixes that are detected are: .fbl/.fda/.poi/.spc E.G. Putting a file called "Australia_Map2022Q2.fbl" in the USB root and pressing Recore will.. 1. Fix the navi executable 2. Backup all existing files 3. Remove all Australia*.fbl & ..fda files 4. Install the new Aussie .fbl / .fda in the correct place 5. Reboot. Basemap & New Zealand files will not be touched, in this example. The last Basemap I've seen is from 2017, which is at least 2 years newer than the last maps on an FG2. Seems older map files had fbl & fda, but newer ones now only have fbl files. Do not rename your map files, the filename is part of its checksum. Oh, and filenames with spaces in them are ignored. The USB root is used as a work-area (more reliable than the FLASH on these units) and will have old/new versions of any files that were processed during this exercise. Keep them! This is Alpha software after all! Attached is a .zip file renamed to .txt so it can be attached... Last reminder... Beware alpha software! Post your log file if you have any issues. |

I think there's an engineer around who might be able to test this out.

He would have to use a customer's unit - or alter the EEPROM's serial number and copy over someone else's license - to get his working again. Hence, I'm posting this without any third party testing. I've done the best testing I can though and have now recovered my unit from earlier attempts, using this. Happy days. |

Thanks for your amazing ICC research, Jason.
My FK Mk II had a failed screen after letting the car sit for three months with the battery disconnected. I came across this thread back then, but decided to get an exchange from ASL, which also gave me a nav upgrade. Now I want to back up the FDIM, but I'm having trouble with the recore function. I have a FAT32 USB stick with the recore.zip extracted to it, and a USB OBDLink. Running your ICCComs program gives the error that NVM settings are incorrect, and to run Forscan first. So I do, but nothing changes. What exactly do I do with Forscan to get this working? |

Viewing existing videos.. Playing a video.. Try and play anything recent and you will see jerky playback and app crashes. You might find you need to reboot your unit - I did. If I were to compare Sync2 to the FG2/SZ 8" colour touch screen, I'd say it's a slight improvement in speed and has WiFi which is nice. But it doesn't really have enough power to do much else with it. The best thing to do I reckon (and I've done it on the FG2) is VNC to a quad-core Raspberry Pi (3 or 4, but a '4 needs far more amps so that gets tricky). |

Yep, using the Russian's software I cracked, I've installed his skeleton key on USB (lets the USB override his list of installed apps) and I run "/USB Disk/wince/primo.exe" via his app-helper exe (turns off the Sync interface while the app is running, then back on when it finishes).
I've also patched primo to use his special [sound] wave.dll that overrides WinCE's system dll (I assume something more is going on with that - like two sound cards in Sync 2 or something - where you need to use the right one). Both the VideoPlayer and Navitel use that, but MirrorLink doesn't? Along with having his Navitel GPS simulated COM port driver installed, which I think is being picked up by primo. Trouble is, I'll need to work out the SDLC device to get the GPS to talk to the APIM, so that's not tested yet... And I think I'll need to connect up the ACM too, to get any sound (connecting earphones to the APIM pins directly has produced nothing so far). But everything else has worked perfectly - maps are on USB... But it could all be on SD card too without any issues, I'm sure. It is cracked software from China though, so totally illegal, and I have put 2020.Q2 maps on it now - and it works without checking for newer licenses... But I'm not sure it'll be me who'll "release" it! |

@JasonACT Thought I'd run the Recore program you've compiled to create a good working backup of my ICC.
ELM327 seems to be happy on the initial connection (mscan), however I'm getting a fault after running the Recore command. >31AB01 7F 31 22 Condition not correct Any idea what could cause this ? Thanks ! |

It looks good, until that command - the only time I've seen that is when it's already been started without the USB stick in place (so it's now running forever which prevents you redoing it)...
Try resetting the ICC... And get the latest from my github too (that one is a bit old by the look of it)... https://github.com/Jasoroony/Ford-Fa...G2ICCComms.exe https://github.com/Jasoroony/Ford-Fa...ain/repair.zip |

Thanks for the reply and link to updated version !
Issue ended up being that I'd only had the ignition on ACC. ICC was powered, however USB port was only happy once ignition set to ON.

You're welcome.
FYI (though I expect you already know): Lang_English-aus.zip [3765111250] is in the navi download in my github repo... So yep, replace that bad file which is now on the USB stick with the one from github, and re-run it to repair it. (That particular file is one of the few that is the same across many firmware versions.) |
