Browser no longer works

Update: 2019.16.2 release seems to breathed a new life into the browser for MCU1! It actually loads pages and even with traffic turned on in the nav.

Totally agreed. It doesn’t hang anymore. Still extremely slow by any modern standards, but works most of the time.

Just accept that it doesn't work and don't bother with it anymore. I poked around on mine last week just for grins, and lo, it doesn't work, still.

As said above by @whitex, you need 16.2
I have it and it still happens that it freezes, but very rare and in between it is indeed useable and useful again.
Once frozen, only a reboot helps.

@whitex

Is it possible to change the thread name ?

I have 16.2, maybe I tried it just before the update? I'll have to try it again. But seriously, should we consider a browser as fast as a 386 windows machine as one that "works"?

It’s a matter of use I guess.
In the case of Tesla Waze web site, it does the job. Not much a faster browser would add, except if/when you want to swipe around to move the map. But I don’t need that often.
If you want to check TMC, not ideal.
If it’s about ready a news article it’s nice enough.
But indeed for browsing as if on you preferred tablet/Mac/..., it is not there yet.

I can't, but that's why I started a new thread on this
It's alive!

It was never fast. 16.2 at least restored prior fubctionality. Tesla owes us keeping existing functions, they do not owe us making them better, except when they sold the feature as such (e.g. advertised specs not yet reached, or FSD driving without humans, etc).
