Love the update, got mine a few days ago. The full screen Carplay may seem minor but really is a great update and so fortunate it's just OTA. The way it should have always been, full screen...

definitely seems to be random on the customer side. I got the full screen CarPlay / Alexa update over a week ago and 3.5.4 (dual phone accessibility at once) today. looks like some got them in reverse order.

I had my 22 on a maintainer charger and it went into deep sleep after sitting for about two weeks. I have it wired to the cable terminals where Ford recommends, not clamped to the battery posts. I guessed it went into deep sleep from not having been started, and not low voltage. I hope mine went deep sleep dye to time, not voltage.
Where does Ford recommend wiring in a battery tender? Mine sits in the truck for weeks at a time, so I was going to just install one connected to the battery posts.

I was going to ask the same question. I leave a trickle charger on mine since I only drive it every few weeks, and it similarly goes into deep sleep mode even with the battery charger on. But for some reason, it did update and this morning I had full screen mode.

Positive to battery terminal and negative to frame/body (or to the frame side of the sensor on the negative battery terminal of the battery). Supposedly so the system can register the incoming current.

See above. I believe the truck can also go into deep sleep if it sits for an extended time (think it’s 2 weeks) regardless of battery current.

I have 7/9 of my cars on the NOCO battery tender hooked directly to the battery posts. Works awesome for tending and charging if need be. NOCO jump pack is insane.

Check out this video posted by @JohnyPython; hope this sheds a little light.

I couldn't find where I first saw it...lol.
Lol, me neither until I did a search and found it in the “How to” section of this forum.

As for the multi quotes, it’s simple. Just tap the “+Quote” of the persons’ post you want to quote. At the bottom, tap ”insert quotes”. From there, you can either re-arrange the quotes or remove a quote…then write your comments & off you go. Voilá!
