    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    Card needs to be formatted to Tesla compatible format. Maybe it doesn’t work with Android.. Anyone get it working successfully with an android device? Will try to test today.

    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    Did you get it working? The update making other card formats possible might help. I’ve actually got an bb in there and not an Android device. Wonder if something about android is to blame?

    Sound Deadening Model 3

    What kind of cars have you had? I’ve never seen someone claim their model 3 was the quiet, let alone the quietest ever!

    Whatever is lying around ;) I’m using a BB Z30. Feels nice to be using it again.

    In V10 how to send videos to play in the Tesla Theatre?

    Same. 23 replies in and yet to have someone actually answer the original question.

    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    Been busy. So works fine. No issues with the video quality. Low cost method that is the most convenient so far. Depending on use, winter may be an issue.

    Model 3 clicking sound near the rear wheel area

    My point was to throw cold water on the wear theory. Pretty basic troubleshooting and it’s ruled out. Further propping it up is a distraction and counterproductive.

    Model 3 clicking sound near the rear wheel area

    Again though, this isn’t a wear issue. New cars also experience this. Sorry, new Tesla Model 3s.

    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    Standard setup. Fat32 with the teslacam folder. Didn’t try with the internal memory given the fat32 requirement. As for the network, smb and any other smart device (TV, Phone etc.) will be able to access it.

    Interesting. Hard to say if it’s the same, but it certainly could be. Can you report back after you speak with Tesla?

    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    Excellent news, mounting issue isn’t a big deal. As soon as the car powers down the USB ports it unmounts and voila, access. It auto mounts when the car is on and stays mounted when sentry mode is on. Pretty much exactly how I want it, and again, free. Only thing to test further is the write...

    Sentry mode - Use an old phone as USB drive

    I was also considering something like the Raspberry Pi but thought I’d give this a go first, since it’s pretty much free (for me at least, and I think many). I threw an old blackberry z30 in there and seems promising enough. Not exactly how I want it so will continue to test different set-ups...

    Yeah, most have card slots, so not an issue. I’ll test this weekend, was just impatient and figured it must have been done already.

    Model 3 clicking sound near the rear wheel area

    Appreciate the input, but I’m not convinced (your first point). This was an issue as soon as it rolled off the production line. To me that rules out longevity issues.

    Model 3 clicking sound near the rear wheel area

    Don’t plan to, but I’ll give em credit, they string you along until you just give up. Been busy, so for now all I did was give a honest post service online review. Got me a call but I missed it. To be continued...
