If it is staying on the "Installation Complete" screen it is done. The first one will be immediately followed by "Rebooting". It took my car about 8 minutes, for the basic Sync version, from the first "Installation Complete" to the second one on my 2014.

I pressed Menu hard key after I got the installation complete (10-15 minutes). Then I pulled the USB stick.

To be honest, I think I missed the first one it happened so fast. When I saw it should take 10 minutes and knew more than 10 had passed, I hit menu. The screen could be more informative while loading, that's for sure. And having a bogus install complete message is just lazy programming.

Got tired of waiting, so I hit the Menu button and screen came back, restarted the car and everything seems functional but not sure if the update got completed.

At least the radio and phone works fine....

Any idea how to see if the update has been performed ?

BTW I looked under system info tab and saw that the version is DR3T-14D544-AF.

So, does it means that the update is performed ?

See picture (btw it's in french)

THAT'S WHAT I HAVE TOO!

one way to know update was done was now texting works, before it said "error downloading", and also when you play songs from BT it shows artist song name..

My text still does not work because I have an iPhone and I don't think this update is supposed to fix it.

But I do see the artist name and song when playing from bluetooth , but don't recall if it was working before.

Yes, I have done it and gives the same thing, but i'm still not sure that this means that the actual update has been performed.

That's why I would like to see what others have inside the unit itself to compare...

Should have noted the number before the install but now it'sy too late
