I just picked up an used Evo. It's version 3.13.14. I notice that I can't adjust shift firmness or spark advance with it. It's on a 2006 5.4L. Is this something that anybody else has ran into or should I talk to Edge? Everything else seems to be working just fine with it.

I don't know if that's the latest firmware or not. You might try downloading "Fusion" from Edge's website to check for firmware upgrades. Like Bluejay, though, I think you SHOULD be able to adjust those parameters.
I have the menu options available but it says that it's not available for this vehicle. Go into programming>level 2>custom yes>shift firmness or timing and I get "This option is not available on this vehicle." I'm going to see if I can upgrade the firmware and fix the issue. If not I'll have to talk to Edge.

It's almost GOT to be the firmware! I suspect the user you bought the unit from had it on a 2004 or 2005 truck and never updated the firmware.
I KNOW you can adjust firmness and timing in a 2006!
this happend to me as well but in a different way, i needed to send my PCM to whipple so i bought an identical PCM from a wrecker, hooked up the IDS(ford scan tool) and did a PMI (swaps info and also updated PCM to latest Ford calibration) then swapped PCMs. Well now that my PCM had the latest calibration from Ford I now needed to update my edge in order for it to work, no big deal. So i updated the edge and was then able to tune the truck, but cant adjust shift firmness aswell, never tried spark advance as im running level 3 on 91oct. Any ideas? I was able to do this before updating the PCM and the Edge.
I have the firmware v24 and calibration v30 which are the latest according to Lightning. For some reason it's telling me in fusion that my hardware isn't supported. I wonder if it's related to the vehicle being E85 capable or something.

I think BOTH of you guys should call Edge Tech Support. I bet there's something very simple they can suggest that will allow you to adjust those settings.
