Firmware

At least it's a beginning:

Last night, while on a road trip to beautiful Tofino on the west coast of Vancouver Island, we got updated from 4.2 (.41) to 4.2 (.42). The download seems to have occurred WHILE driving the 4 hours here, and then I did the update in the hotel parking lot. Today I was giving friends rides and...

I think the way Tesla are able to update their cars wirelessly is pure genius (except for the occasional half-baked-release). Is this unique, or are there other cars out there with this functionality?

Installing a new software update! Will update with version number when it is done. Have V4.1 (1.19.27) now.

Would love to know...

Is there a list somewhere of voice command tips? My phone (with music) is connected. I say "Play Shadow Gallery". The voice recognition recognizes what I said, and then offers to play "Shadow Gallery Radio" from Slacker. I think that's really cool, but what I really wanted was to hear some...

I've needed to reboot the main screen 3 times in as many days with 4.1 because the screen is not functioning correctly. 1) Stays in 'Night Mode' 2) Turn signals work, but don't get the 'ding ding' audio. Which as quickly become my indication that I need a reboot. 3) General flakiness...

Whose brilliant idea was to have two firmware version #s? We started with the 1.X.Y series and than at some point in their wisdom Model S software team added 4.X to the mix. Now to top it off we even have non 1-to-1 mappings (e.g. 4.1 is 1.19.27 and 1.19.29). Why all the confusion? What was...

I spent some time yesterday trying to speak to my Model S. I wasn't all that impressed. I really would like for it to be able to handle context a bit better. I am a native english speaker from the midwest, the part of the country with no accent. :) Seriously, though, I have no thick accent...

A new game occurred to me while watching this video: "Guess the firmware" We know this one is < v.1.17.50 because of the Energy app and the individually extended door handles. We also know >= v1.13.16 because he has the Creep setting.

List of changes to software versions and what is known about them: Version 8.0 (v2.50.114) - December 22, 2016 (2.50.114) - Supercharger Amenities - Automatic Driver Profiles (link keys to profiles) - 5 Equalizer Settings - November 12, 2016 (2.44.130) - Bug fixes - October 28, 2016 (2.42.40) -...

A place to discuss current Model S Software/Firmware updates what changes were made and any problems that appeared with the update. contaygious found a discussion on the Tesla Motors forum regarding some of the promised features that have already been added to the current version. The direct...

What features would you like Tesla to add in future versions of the firmware? One minor feature I'd like to see is for the Model S to recognize via GPS when I'm close to home or any other location where I have a HomeLink signal saved and bring up the window on the 17" screen to open the...

Real time traffic is horrible in BMW and mini. It tells us to detour every time we drive. It says detour, detour, last chance for detour. It always thinks a few cars means heavily congested area.

so my roadster was in for minor service this week (TPMS faults) and they updated the firmware to 4.6.5 afterwards, i noticed that the VDS range display now defaulted to "IDEAL" miles instead of "ESTIMATED" miles. if I press the RANGE button it shows estimated miles but then changes back to...

I've written up instructions for updating the OVMS firmware for non-developers. Developers who want to work on the code have to go through a complex procedure to download the source code and install the tools needed to build and update the firmware. It's a lot of work if you're not going to...

Was told that the Model S would have regular firmware updates every eight weeks. Sometimes six. Tesla wants to make sure what they release is solid. Then they will be adding new features over time building excitement about the car. I mentioned how great it was that the Roadster has actually...

Hi! First off, what's the difference between software and firmware? How do I figure out what software (or firmware) my (recently purchased) used 08 roadster currently has in it? (Built 1/09.) What is the latest update for the PEM 185? And if mine is not the latest, is it possible to update...

Tesla Model S Will Support Third-Party Apps On Its Massive 17-inch Touchscreen Let's see. Full battery and charge info, a Ipad/phone/android app converter, a timelapse recorder for any Model S cameras, weather, voice recording, and a Post it note feature to start.

What things do owners who have had their cars for awhile wish Tesla would upgrade (within the realm of what's possible with a firmware update and their limited engineering sources directed towards the Roadster given Model S development). I'd simply like to have the speed shown in the gray LCD...

A new firmware revision was released Saturday, the release is 3.5.7.11. It was installed on my 1.5 roadster. Notable changes included a speed display on one of the VDS screens. I've included screenshots here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tesla26/sets/72157624044442054/ Quick...

There is a new Tesla firmware version now available. I heard that it improves the accuracy of the range estimates. Tesla Roadster 2010 latest firmware is "4.1.28 33". Tesla Roadster 2008 latest firmware is "3.4.13 12".

Ok, I have been meaning to start this thread for weeks now but have not had the time to kick it off properly. Rather that wait one more second, here it is with a weak start but hoping it will grow organically. The ideas for firmware fixes and improvements are scattered in dozens of threads in...
