2020 Ford Escape upgrade 4" to 8" screen

I have a 2020 Ford Escape base model with a 4" screen but I changed it to an 8" as I want to get Andriod Auto to work so I can see my maps on the bigger screen when driving. When I did this change, I could only see the top left corner working (except when in reverse the whole screen worked). I dowloaded the latest syn3 updater and plugged it into my car. The screen went blank. I could only sometimes get the Ford logo up and the screen also worked when in reverse. Then I Created an Interrogator Log USB and plugged this into the car’s USB. I later did a hard reset and then the whole screen worked in its blue software (as shown in google), except I could not get Andriod Auto to work. I can see it in the settings, but it doesnt work on my phone. I can play music off my phone and makes calls etc, but my maps is still displayed on my phone (I do have Adriod Auto on my phone). The syn3 updater I downloaded was the one without maps as I wasn’t sure it would work with my APIM. The new screen I have is compatible with Ford maps: LJ6T-18B955-FC.

Should I download the Syn3 with maps? I do not know if my APIM has Navigation? How do I get it work with Andriod Auto? I am going into Ford to fix something else, should I say something to them?

The code I got from the Interrogator log is:

Following on from my last post… I got my new 8" screen to work with Android Auto (doing a manual reset worked - previous log included).

However, I wanted to see if I could get ford maps onto my screen as it should be compatible (LJ6T-18B955-FC).

Cyan’s Syn3Updater asked if I had a 2020 model, I first clicked yes and tried to install the maps (using a USB, plugging it into my car), but nothing happened.
I’ve been looking online and saw I should do it again, but clicking no, I do not have a 2020 model.

The 8" is blank and the 4" just says, “version: 306 Please insert USB stick…”. Everything I try turns the 4" screen red and says “Error update packages not found…”, reversing camera doesn’t work, manual resets do not work, taking car battery out doesn’t work (left out over night).

I saw another Youtube video that said this bricked my APIN, and uses the reformat tool utility on my20 ford.

My APIM drivers are not the same for the display and the APIM module has been reformatted. How do I fix this? Youtube says I need to access the flash storage on the APIN module and fix it?

How do I fix this and can I get Ford maps on my 2020 Ford Escape S (base model 4" screen)? Will a jailbreak work? Does my SYNC APIM have Navigation?
