I tried to update my software to 19205 via WiFi yesterday. It tried to scan for updates for a couple of hours and never completed. Is this common?

Yeah, it seems that this is a big update. The website indicates that it may take up to one hour. engine needs to be running and vehicle stationary when you start, but you can drive after the installation starts.

I am waiting until the next long trip to do this update and I will use the USB method.

It takes less than 10 mins with the USB

I got mine last week a 9/19 build date and I still have the Sync 3.0 and 18093 build. Seems to be pretty random what you wind up with on 2019s.
I checked owner.ford.com and was able to update to build 19205 via USB. Still Sync 3.0

I got the "update" installed, but it still says my software version is 19149. The update has JR3T-14G381-AS shown as the updated software name. What is the name of the 19205 file?

The file I downloaded was JR3T-14G381-AS.zip

That looks like the same version. Did that install 19205 in your truck?

I updated via USB a few days ago. It's not very intuitive. My system didn't indicate it was updating, just searching. Then after several minutes it said update complete. Android Auto works ok, but not sure what changed since I didn't use it much before.
