    Summons Fail - Crashed - Body Shop Repair Estimate

    MFi certification is a bit of a headache, yes; you need to buy a special encryption chip (or license and implement the encryption), and you need to write your communication protocol atop Apple's External Accessory framework. However, MFi is only required for custom Bluetooth Classic profiles...

    Logged out of slacker?

    I have a personal Slacker account, which is what got signed out. Attempting to log in with the Tesla account before I left the parking lot didn't work (I also got the captcha message), but once I got home and logged in with my personal Slacker account it worked fine.

    Also got logged out today, yeah.

    Phone as Key Issues

    That would make sense, as the persistent notification would be able to ensure the background service that provides the 'key' continued running.

    Phone as Key Issues

    So I did a little bit of experimentation, and at least with iPhone, it seems that the phone key is very susceptible to signal attenuation. The simplest way to see this in effect is to put the phone in the back pocket of my jeans and stand facing the car directly; in my own experimentation...

    Model 3 Software Updates

    I had the same thing happen to me yesterday. Haven't seen a software update prompt in the car yet.

    Jim Keller leaves the autopilot team

    I believe the software is still headed up by Andrej Karpathy, one of the foremost deep learning and computer vision experts in the world. I'm sure autopilot software will be fine under his guidance. Keller was apparently a hardware guy, and even if he was getting the chance to work on custom...

    [POLL] Will Tesla ever offer a key fob for the Model 3?

    I think most of those reports were Android, though. Android and iOS have wildly differing implementations of Bluetooth, and Android has differing implementations of Bluetooth across manufacturers. For instance, code which worked 100% reliably on a Samsung Galaxy S8+ had a 20% failure rate to...

    Anyone tested S/X CHAdeMO Adapter on Model 3

    Sure, but that does no good if the Model 3 doesn't yet _support_ the CHAdeMO adapter.

    There should be a bonus to Electric-type Pokemon when you're playing from the passenger seat of a Tesla. ;)

    Anyone else with glass defect?

    I was going to post about how my co-worker mentioned having this same problem, but I see you're here already. :)

    Already have J1772 EVSE, should I get the Tesla Wall Charger?

    Yeah, I don't have a spare 240V available; I do have a spare 120V, but that seems... slow. I could certainly add a 240V outlet, mind you, but if I get an electrician in to add stuff I'd rather just add a second EVSE anyway. ;)

    Anyone tested S/X CHAdeMO Adapter on Model 3

    Putting aside whether or not the CHAdeMO adapter is useful to everyone -- since it's pretty evidently useful to /some/ -- does anyone have any idea when/if the Model 3 will gain support for the adapter? I have a trip planned in October; I should have the M3 by then (and would love to drive it...

    Already have J1772 EVSE, should I get the Tesla Wall Charger?

    I figure I would still charge with the existing EVSE 99% of the time, but having a nearby Supercharger reduces worry considerably about if there's a sudden need for a full charge and the switch-off timing between Leaf and M3 didn't work. I would be pretty equally annoyed by someone using the SC...

    Already have J1772 EVSE, should I get the Tesla Wall Charger?

    Well, I just found out they're planning to put in a Supercharger about four blocks from my house by end-of-year, which lessens the need for a TWC even further.

    Android phone key work around with Tasker?

    Speaking as someone who works with Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy for her day job, different implementations of the Android Bluetooth stack haunt my nightmares. But yes, different Android phones have different Bluetooth quirks; I literally have a list I keep for work. Unsurprisingly, the...

    VIN Assignment

    I would've honestly preferred the Aeros, but my friend talked me into the switch. I hope we both squeak in under the deadline, either way!

    VIN Assignment

    I did the same in hopes of squeaking in under the May 31 deadline on the Washington state sales tax exemption, so we'll see what happens.

    Already have J1772 EVSE, should I get the Tesla Wall Charger?

    I can probably live with it—my turn with the charger is overnight, while my housemate with the other LEAF works evenings and charges during the day. Still, it might be nice to be able to charge both without worries. That's a fair point. I suppose I was more pondering if there were any...

    Already have J1772 EVSE, should I get the Tesla Wall Charger?

    So, my household currently has two LEAFs (one 2011, one 2015), and thus has a standard J1772 charging station. We trade off charging as-needed, and it's worked well for a few years now. I'm replacing my LEAF (the 2011) with a Model 3, and trying to decide if it's worth adding a Tesla charger...

    Android phone key work around with Tasker?

    It's been a while since I've used Tasker, I admit, but I believe you should be able to set up a profile for 'Connected to Car' and make it dependent on BT Connected <address of car's BT radio or name of car>, and similarly a 'Connected to Headset' and make it dependent on your headset. Sadly...

    Out of curiosity, how did you change the wheels on the order? Just called the service number on the page?

    I got my invite on 4/15, configured 4/16 because I dithered on options for a day. (Also, hi! Longtime lurker, first time poster.)
