Anyone stuck on 2018.12?

[DarkMatter]

I'm on 18.12 still. No big difference from the last time I went a long time between updates, which was 17.34 to 17.42. I would expect to see an update in the next few weeks. If you make it to late June without one, call and ask them to send it.

What a weird way to operate. We've got Elon saying that they are going to add a button for you to request an update, so they are aware that people want updates. At the same time, they'll smash out 25% of the fleet in one night and then not have everyone updated even 10 weeks later.

I'd really love to know why they would leave a car on a 10 week old update while having at least two major updates between. I get not rushing everyone to the latest update in one day or even one week, but this kind of gap is harder to understand. What are they learning or saving by not updating the last 5% of the fleet?

EXCELLENT POINTS HERE

Android said they would allow you to check for updates and then install. It still took a year for the feature to actually work. Tesla is not doing great here but I don't feel the need to beat them up yet. Maybe in three months, six months definitely?

I was stuck on 2018.14 until this last week. Interestingly, I was in for (annual) service and for the first time ever, I came out of service without the latest software update :-(.

I emailed the service center. They apologized for not upgrading the firmware during the annual service and did something remotely and a few hours later I had the notification for the update that ended up being 2018.20.5.

So definitely worth asking the service center to flag your car for an update.

I know the feeling of being stuck on 2018.12 with no update in sight... It sucks seeing everyone else getting updates, and you have no ability to do anything about it. I'll be very thankful once the update button comes around.

I was stuck on 2018.12 until last week (X100D, AP 2.5). I checked my wifi, turned it off/on, and did the two-button reset several times. It finally gave me an update notice. Doubt it's because of anything I did, but the Tesla gods finally decided to reward me. The browser is noticeably faster (as is my LTE connection), but otherwise nothing too significant.

I am on AP1 and had been on 2018.14.2 since May. This morning I finally saw 21.9 after a long wait. Upon checking firmware tracker, it looks like Tesla starts aggressively pushing the firmware to everybody.

Agree, I got 2018.21.9 last night.

2018.21.9 showed up for me last night. It downloaded on the night of the 9th and offered to install on the night of the 10th. That's two months and one day, about a week more than the last longest interval between firmware updates for me.

I got 21.9 over the weekend too.

Still on 2018.12 since 3/29

Its the longest I have ever waited and there have been numerous releases in the meantime. However, other than the UI speed up, nothing of importance to me

Updated this am from 2018.12 to 2018.21.9 . From some of the other.post, the hands on warning is iirritating, coming on every 30 sec in this 21.9

 

[DarkMatter]

I noticed it seems to behave a little differently, it's true. It meant sightly modifying how I hold the wheel on AP to avoid false positives. I found out when I finally heard the warning sound for the first time.

I FINALLY got 21.9 today. Sheesh.
