Yes, but they will never know the satisfaction of buying an overpriced $500+ dongle, a $100+ battery charger, and a $50 weekend license, to spend that weekend sitting in your truck watching a screen with your fingers crossed and your butt puckered, only to ask @rugedraw why a couple of the updates didn't appear to work.

Ima MY23 so hats off to you before me @Livnitup @Jesse-Infotainment @Snakebitten @HammaMan @superfordman @rugedraw et. Al.
Lol, I can totally agree with that. Yes, pricey along with boatloads of anxiety when getting into FDRS for the first time. But we learned something, and I'm fearless with FDRS now thanks to this forum.

Additional shout outs should also go to the 2 guys that founded the mighty FDRS thread @iceman77 and @Bob_Mac who wrote the original FDRS guide for us.

It's so nice to see that Ford seems to have finally figured out OTA after 4 years! It looks like the 24 trucks have no problems with it. :) Man, what we went through. 😆
And still going through....:sadface:

But now, with using FDRS, no different than loading new software on a laptop.

It's no surprise that ECG-24.2.5.6.1 is my most recent update. This one installed on 9/23/24, and I've been getting phantom notifications for it ever since.
I got the same update on 9/24 and now get phantom updates 3-4 times a week

Meijer is my go to for phantom updates!😂
With getting that update your truck is primed for the next 2 OTA'S 10.1.0 an APIM update which will give you a new SYNC version 24127. And this will be followed up soon after with 10.1.1 a TCU module update (telecommunications module) this will end the "Phantom updates " forever! :)

Guess I need to drive my truck more often. I live in gods country and poor cell connection. No signal in garage, not even SiriusXM.

funny i'm just now seeing this thread...i kept getting phantom update symbols on the sync screen but would check to see I had no updates pending.

last week i drive to work (35-40 min drive) and when I go to leave, I got a message saying an update had been installed. It was kind of a surprise truth be told.

I got that one back in August and nothing since. The site's telling me it's been over 90 days since any update. Truck states no updates available either.
