Thank you, I know this was an issue on the first couple of generations of this.


Maybe I shouldn't say any. Some issues are really hard to say that they are steering wheel controls or something else.

- I've notice that if skip to the next song 'too frequently', the system will lock up and audio from the console (SYNC) will start playing...or it will just be muted. I have to close the console app or hit the mute button on the steering wheel repeatedly to get it to 'unlock'. I wouldn't call that a steering wheel control problem though.

Excellent idea @Gtibbot!


The spreadsheet is showing up as read only. I'll provide info to you when I get a chance, or if it becomes updatable.

Some possible other columns:

Launcher: Nove, Index, other
Vehicle WiFi: Yes, No
Primary Audio: Amazon, SXM, Google, Apple, etc
Carplay/Android Auto/Neither/Both
Known Bugs?:

It would also be useful to have second tab, listing the configuration options specific to tablet and what do they do. Many of these are not remotely clear by their label. For example, I believe there is one called "Parking Sound" or something similar that toggles radio volume on/off while the cameras are displayed, in reverse or otherwise. I was thinking all the possible options could be laid out and we can add explanations as we figure it out.

Spreadsheet is editable by everyone now, sorry.

Good idea! I will update the spreadsheet while I'm at work tomorrow :)

It looks like the latest MCU version is RL7A_KWY_E030Y -FOD3-La1.07-9727, if anyone has a newer version please let me know.
Phoenix just posted a YouTube video showing how to upgrade the MCU, while they didn't specify this was for the F150, it does have a picture of the Raptor during boot:

In the video, the MCU version number is RL7A_KWY_E041Y -FOD3-La1.07-9727
I dropped them an email for specifics on this and will report back

Per the email reply from Phoenix:

As advised by our technicians, it is not better to get updated if there is no problem with the unit.
