I was previously an early adopter to the "unofficial" version 3 build number 17276 found on another forum. After attempting to update to the OFFICIAL version 3, I would get a message that I already had the current release. I then downgraded to version 2.2 and completed a master reset. Once confirmed that 2.2 was running fine, I performed the OFFICIAL version 3 update and successfully installed SPECIFICALLY FOLLOWING the directions from the Ford Owner site. The final outcome is version 3.0, Build 18025. All updates were perfomed using the center console USB jack. Don't forget to log back in to the ford owner site and update it with the .xml file from the USB stick you used. That will update your owner portal with official version info.
So far, I've noticed much better bluetooth connectivity to my Iphone X which was becoming very unreliable on the 17276 build. That in itself makes the exercise worthwhile.
Hope this helps!
(here is where I found the v2.2 for the downgrade: NAV Sync 2.2 update-download site - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums)
