2020.4

[MrBadger]

TeslaFi has picked up 2 instances of 2020.4 being rolled out. Hopefully some more details will become clear over the coming days. Oddly, both in China with US named states

Software version 2020.4 bec232c2c946 was just detected on a Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor in Texas China. The highest previous version was 2019.40.50.7 ad132c7.

And in software thread 2020.4...Come to Papa

I’m getting withdraw symptoms for not having an update for a long time!

Looking foward to it

Here's what it was for me.

Along with some other things that seemed were already there from a previous update like phone contacts and message notifications, maybe some extra games too (not sure if they were new or not )

 

[LukeT]

Installing here now. Those voice command descriptions above were pretty much what 2019.40.50 had in weren't they (that killed all useful voice control in my car)?

I would say so too. I'm guessing this is mostly bug fixes rather than features.

 

[LukeT]

Some new suspension settings for cars with the necessary hardware.

I look forward to trying this out. I recall posting on here a while back re being keen to see a more comfortable cruising setting.

There's also some stuff about smart summon and adjacent lane speeds but I think I saw all that from previous updates.

Wonder when voice commands will work again?

Mine certainly don't with this update. Not a sausage. Multiple attempts and not one success. Bring back the old system, Tesla, please, until you can make this one work.

I can't prove it's due to this update but I must say my autopilot was as poor today as I've experienced it in my 6 months of ownership. And I'm usually a supporter of it. In a 3.5 hour drive this evening it exhibited pretty much all of the issues folk commonly complain about. Multiple incidences of phantom braking, almost constant left fender camera blocked or blinded and therefore no lane change, despite 3x cleaning the cameras (which weren't dirty or misted up) and some quite skittish wobbling within the lane at times, plus the obligatory choosing the right on a splitting lane. There was a bit of light rain occasionally, but mostly not, and dark of course. So on the rather limited basis of one man's experience for one day, I wouldn't recommend installing it!

What's range mode on your a/c? Never seen that before....am I the only one?

I got "left fender camera blocked or blinded" a couple of times tonight, still on 2019.40.50

Standard S/X feature IIRC. Stops it using the dedicated battery heater, uses rear motor less, uses lower fan speed, half the cabin heaters and reduced power to air conditioning compressor

I think it also has a wider comfort band for temperature so you have to be further from the desired temperature for it really blast you with hot/cold, which I like. I use it as much because I just like how it works as for any energy saving.

yes how annoying, works in s/x but not in 3! Tesla staff are equally confused!

Mine's an S. Doesn't work in that!

Oh brilliant! My voice commands have been dead since Christmas, glad to see its back, really useful when driving. Even in its pre christmas less functional form it was spot on in recognising where I wanted to go.

 

[TomD]

I gave up with voice commands after trying for 20 minutes to call "Mum" which kept being converted to "Mom" and finding no match.

I get that, but I don't think it uses the word "fender"? Low sun, or headlight dazzle, seems to be the cause.

Oh maybe the one I tried was on old software then
