IOS6 mod
So I downloaded IOS6 tonight and it says it supports MAP for Bluetooth. That should allow us to have text via voice functionality now right? Can't get to the car to test it tonight, but this would be great if it is the case...

Same deal here. I deleted and re-loaded my phone. I now have access to all of the texting functionality, but it fails every time. I seem to remember a sync engineer type on the forum in one of these posts, maybe they can shed some light....

According to this guy it should work with the iPhone 4. The profile needs to be deleted on both the car's system AND iPhone then reconnect.

Ok so I have been seeing confusion all over the web today about if its working or not. If its working on anything other then the iPhone 4S and 5 or not and so on. Im here to clear it up. I had to wait until later in the day to do the update so like many I had been searching online about the Blue Tooth MAP which was in the beta.
To clear things up
YES - Bluetooth MAP (Message Access Profile) works on 4 and I suspect on 3GS too.
YES - It made it to the final software
YES - it does work with Ford Sync 3.1 and up
I don't know if it works right with Ford My Touch, some one else will have to test that out.
Anyways if you update the phone and try to use it the Ford Sync will continue to say not supported.
You MUST Sync from the phone and then delete the Phone from Ford Sync
After you have done this re-link Sync to your iPhone and this time around the Ford Sync will see the BT MAP
Additionally in the phone if you go to details under Sync you will see a option "Show Notifications" with a slider on and off. By default its off. You need to turn that on.
If you don't delete Sync from the phone and the profile from the car first, that Show Notifications option will not be there.
I hope this helps.
This probably will apply to many of the Car systems from BMW, Honda, Fords My Touch system for those upgrading phones. Hope others test that out on the other cars to confirm it
