    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    I installed 16.1.2 yesterday also. Will see how it fares.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    New semi-regular update: Yesterday marked my weekly red x. Yet another Saturday, the weekly cadence for needing to reboot the interface - then it works for another week.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    That USB icon means USB music - just like that Bluetooth icon means Bluetooth connected music. Those stay in the tray if you source music from one of those music options.

    Will Tesla ever offer Lease buyout?

    There’s a third option which is extend - that’s an official thing… may need to when my lease ends depending on production timing for my next one.

    Will Tesla ever offer Lease buyout?

    I have actually been considering asking them to let me buy it out. I mentioned it to the guy at the SC when I dropped my car off a month ago and he said I need to talk to the sales people (it was too early and they weren’t in). My car has 2 Carfax reports already from being hit in parking lots...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Mine required another reboot after another week. Seems to be working reliably for about a week between reboots.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    So my dashcam continued to mount properly upon wake for about a week or more before it failed to mount again. I rebooted and it has been fine for going on another week now.

    Not sure, but that’s my hypothesis based on a very small number of observations. Also a reboot… https://www.baeldung.com/linux/empty-buffer-cache

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    I’d also add that this problem will likely be exacerbated if you have other volumes mounted (say another stick full of gigs of music). The overall filesystem footprint will eat away at the available cache.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    This explanation might shed light onto why my USB has been behaving correctly post-12.3.2. If they boosted the cache size even a little in .2, mounting my now-empty (freshly formatted) USB now lets it safely stay mounted within the cache footprint. It also explains why someone here said their’s...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Interestingly, after upgrading to 2022.12.3.2 from .1 my ❌ goes away when the car wakes up at first drive. It has done so reliably each day since the update. I have the dashcam icon in the tray so I can always see it.

    PSA - if your 4G isn’t working well, schedule a service appointment

    I noticed some times when my 4G was unavailable and opened a ticket. Chat requested times so they could look at logs. They did a remote diag and determined faulty connectivity board. Currently in the service center for replacement. Kudos to Tesla for a streamlined experience. Anyhow, if...

    Mine seems to break after every deep sleep but works until that happens. I’m formatting each time to get it working again. This is usually only after an overnight sleep.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Just found this thread but been seeing this for a bit - I had already begun to suspect the update since it coincided. I’ve been getting sh!t LTE connection (as in not there frequently) as well - have a SC appointment and chats for that also… 1yr old Samsung endurance Pro SD. Figured it was full...

    AEB is too abrupt - I got rear-ended

    I disagree with that definition. I have on several occasions been mere milliseconds away from applying the brakes myself when AEB kicked in and would have undoubtedly avoided any incident had AEB not intervened. I do however agree that bailing from the lane is idiotic.

    UGH - The smell of it. [AC Smell]

    I have successfully avoided AC funk in my last several cars. The trick is to “purge” the condensation by manually turning the compressor off for a few minutes each time (or a good percentage of the time) when you’ve run the AC. I usually turn the fan higher as well.

    21” arachnid or 19” base

    Yes, I previously took the word “base” in the thread title to mean 19” base wheels vs base Model S config. 😀

    What's next for model 3?

    I’ll say with the current S lineup (slowest one matches the M3P and the Plaid is a beast) Tesla can finally do a few things to the 3 Performance that previously would have potentially cannibalized the S. I‘d like to see improvements to the power curve in the M3P, some kind of Spaceballs...

    New headlights vs free 1yr supercharger

    Don’t get too excited... There’s a good chance they’ll be crippled when installed in the US until regulators okay the new behavior. Why Is America Stuck with Bad Headlights?

    Yes, mine too. It’s a machine though, so who says it needs to be totally silent?

    Turning off Model 3

    Heh, fewer and fewer gas cars shut off also, or are difficult to shut off. My previous car was a 2020 Supra (a BMW inside) and it had 3 power modes. You could manually sleep it (hold down the power button on the radio), or trust the settings and locked door to sleep it but things could keep it...

    Phone Key Pairing Issues (OnePlus)

    My initial setup was rough on a stock iPhone, so having issues isn’t limited to “expected” corner cases. Needed to uninstall and reinstall, reboot, etc and fiddle with settings to get past the app thinking Bluetooth wasn’t enabled.

    M3P OEM Michelin Pilot Sport 4 vs 4S

    Seems it worked in the narrow range for which it was designed. Not a panacea, simply a tiny improvement - “the tone of the sound has changed”. Also worth considering C&D has gotten pretty weak compared to their former glory - this is one test with one manufacturer’s tire. They even point out...

    iPhone screen phantom touches on wireless mat

    Is the phone in a case? I have an iPhone X and I’ll be taking delivery of my 21 Model 3 in a week. Hopefully it’s not useless. My ‘20 Supra charged it fine, but cooked it - the phone got so hot it throttled the CPU and became unresponsive (or nearly so).

    iPhone screen phantom touches on wireless mat

    Yup, I’d bet it’s this. Definitely an issue with insufficient power.
  41. R

    Touching touch screens while driving no longer allowed in Germany, even for adjusting wiper speed!!

    This is and always will be the answer. At some point an interface that does voice control well enough erases this issue entirely.

    Calling on Audiophiles: Lossless, High-Res and Dolby Atmos

    Right. You’d need a multichannel solution. To the best of my knowledge this only happens with Logic 7 in the automotive space. My long gone 2006 BMW had this and I found a good snippet from Benz about it. In both cases, the vehicles had DVD support making it easier to playback true multichannel...
