I also added a heat sink to the SoC to compensate for the custom firmware’s adjusted governor settings.

This results in a buttery smooth experience for me on my Ford Sync 3. Then use the custom firmware 2021.03.06 (not the 2021.04.26) from the above repo and upgrade it via the USB method (which should be done whilst connected to a power supply not the car). Multimedia tools downloads - PTCL Smart TV by PBX Telecom and many more programs are available for instant and free download. It’s fine to do this in the car, but DO NOT disconnect it while the light is alternating red/green or you’ll brick it. I solved this by:Ĭonnect to the device via WiFi, goto 192.168.50.2 and select the downgrade option that sends the unit back to a 2020 version. You’ll get blips and stuttering left right and centre. If the USB upgrade isn’t working, you’re probably on a recent version 2021.03 for example, which they changed governor settings in and performance sucks. Goto the above mentioned GitHub repo ( ) the problem is that once you are >= a certain firmware version, upgrading and downgrading is a pig in my experience. From reading download instructions on Microsoft page it says to use Windows 7 or 8.1 because using 10 it can overwrite temporary files on this computer.

I’ve had similar problems recently (including sucky performance). Downloading Windows 10 to flashdrive The computer I am on is running Windows 10 but need to download Windows 10 to a flashdrive to install on laptop that has no OS at this time.
