Picked Up My 2011 Ford Edge Limited 17 December 2010! Although I am continuing to evaluate I must say “What a Big Difference” and I must say “We Still Got Some Issues”. After the GEN 2 Update I can certainly see a significant improvement. See: http://fordsyncforum.com/index.php?/topic/1400-sync-software-version-2/page__st__80__gopid__6895&do=findComment&comment=6895

(This is a great Forum. The detailed letter at the top outlined alot of the issues that we all have had). :shades: Ahhh the day I picked up my New 2011 Ford Edge...... Pops always said "Rusty" your day will come too...... I think I've been Sync-ed!

:titanic: Help Me! I'm Sync-ing!

:bike: My 2011 Ford Edge has been in the shop since Monday Evening…… With pretty much the same problems as most of you have explained. MyFord Touch … Started as a Love Story….. kinda like this... . But then suddenly we had this SYNC-ing feeling…. … Lord! & Ford! Please help us all! ………………… Ahhhh Popcorn anyone? Hopefully we wake up in the morning from all this just being a nightmare. http://androidforums...eaming-evo.html

Hopefully all gets fixed soon! MyFord Touch Engineers will get the bugs out I am sure! I Hope! :glare: Can they? http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-support-troubleshooting/117371-ford-sync-bluetooth-streaming-evo.html :burnout: Will see....

This all drives me crazy. It all worked fine with my 2008. I do not think it is my phone but the new MyFord Touch Sync System Then if that is the case then Ford should really provide a selection menu for all the different "Bluetooth Protocols" for the 2011 MyFord Touch Sync..... Ray

Looks like you got lucky.... My MyFord touch dials the wrong number and I figured I would wait for the software fix and have the number corrected at the same time. But No....., Thanks for the advise but I tried all that..... :car: My car sat in the shop for 5 days along with my cell phone. The dealership could not figure it out why the two Sony products could not work completely. Too many are having a problem with this. Maybe Ford should provide the phone(s) that work with sync when you purchase the vehicle (Not the phone service). Just an idea. I wonder what the difference is with bluetooth and the 2011 Ford Edge compared to the 2008. The same phone worked great in my 2008 Ford Edge SEL. Did your contact photographs load via bluetooth to your Sync phonebook as well? I mean bluetooth should be bluetooth...right? Does anyone know if there is a difference in bluetooth from one phone to another? Are there different levels of bluetooth or something? Any techies out there know? :hyper: Oh and by the way ... If you haven't checked out this app.... It can help you from losing your cell phone..... www.myoutlook.com This free app locates your phone using your laptop and GPS..... Well Thanks for the advise... Glad it worked for you...., (#@#@#$%$$!) You Edgy dog!

:shades: Don't get me wrong. I love my new 2011 Ford Edge. But we got some issues here...... :stats: I was so impressed I traded in my 2008 Edge for the 2011 Ford Edge Limited. My 2008 Ford Edge worked flawlessly with my current android phone the Sony Ericcson X10. So, I expected even greater things from my new 2011 Ford Edge Limited w/ MyFordTouch. Not! There is a definite problem with the bluetooth media streaming on the MyFord Touch side. The phone does connect for phone calls (only), but NOT for MEDIA STREAMING such as PANDORA , or media music files etc via bluetooth. My vehicle was in the shop for 5 days with my Android Cell phone to see if a fix could be found. Without the bluetooth media stream functions you are unable to enjoy a complete experience with the 3 years of Sync Services that Ford provides to new owners. I have not been able to use these services as since I bought the vehicle on November 1st 2010. The hardware/software engineers at Ford, Microsoft and Sony will have to coordinate and go back to find the missing link with their bluetooth connections. There should be not be problems with these two Sony products streaming from my Sony Ericsson X10 product to the Sony Sync System. My phone and 2008 Sync System worked absolutely perfectly in my 2008 Ford Edge before Sony even got involved. FORD should fix the problem & compensate services for those 2011 owners that must wait for a fix. Although the software is not allowing bluetooth media streaming (But strangely it does allow phone calls via bluetooth). As a temporary fix I am using a Motorola T505 bluetooth with my Sony Ericsson X10. The T505 works just fine going through the FM frequencies with media streaming and to make phone calls. Although because I am using this device there is no voice recogntion capability. For me this is only a temporary fix for my media streaming until Ford comes up with a real fix. The bluetooth issue is contributing to Sync not working along with another problem that is added insult to My Ford Touch / Sync injury. I called Sync Services to advise them that my Sync Services were not working. They advised me to check which ph# Sync was dialing. They said it should be dialing this number not that number (Gave me 2 Phone # to look for). I checked the #'s Sync Services provided.....it was neither #'s Sync Services provided but a "3rd" # showed on my cell phone. I called Sync Services back. They stated that I need to take my Edge into the dealer to re-program the correct ph#. The dealership knew nothing about this because there has been no Technical Bulletin. The Sync operator advised me that "Well you gotta consider that this is a different system". Both of these issues effect MyFord Touch Sync Services. I expect a higher standard when upgrading to a newer $50,000 plus vehicle. I called the Ford Sync Services hotline again.... They assured me that the Ford Sync Engineers are working on these problems and that the MyFord Touch Sync Services start date will be delayed until a complete solution is found to these problems for 2011 Ford Edge owners w/MyFordTouch systems. I believe that the profesionals at Ford will resolve these issues and hopefully soon. Cross your fingers! (FYI: See syncmyride.com community site for more on this issue.On the Ford Sync Community I am Ray4Ward). I got the $50,000 dollar night light too! I hope Ford has a better idea to fix all this! Hopefully we won't have to beat a dead horse.... :beatdeadhorse: 2011 Ford Edge Limited 3.bmp 2011 Ford Edge Limited 1.bmp
