Yea apparently Ford decided the original rolling rocks screen was too nice for the Bronco and had to fuck it up.

The last Ford software update in September took away the .25" rolldown of the windows when you unlocked the vehicle with the key fob. I really don't understand what Ford is trying to accomplish with this last update. When I see software updates from other company's, they are improving their product not diminishing the original product that was purchased.

Just checked and mines the same way. I guess we’re all in the same boat. Just have to ask the question, if something is working, why mess with it?

Thanks for the info. The "update details" screen on my Bronco is not accessible because the connected vehicle option is off.

The other "about sync" screen shows as below, which doesn't seem to jive with the version number formats mentioned around here.

Or maybe it's the 22291 number, which would be older than the 24xxx you mentioned.

Oh wow you’re way out of date on software. Not missing a ton, I think the main thing is just full screen CarPlay/Android Auto. But obviously won’t hurt anything to be out of date

What are the rolling rocks replaced with?

You can use FORScan to completely disable your modem; hence, blocking all updates.

I refuse to give up my rolling rocks, so just blocked my bronco from my wifi network :D
Tough to beat a super cold rolling rock on a hot day!

I have my updates turned off. I would like to update, but do not want to lose the rolling rocks. Every single time a new person gets into my truck, they notice the rocks and make a comment on it. It was also the first thing I saw when I first got into my truck. It sounds dumb, but I guess I'm just sentimental like that.
