Yes. Can't confirm it yet but that's what he said. As soon as it's released I'm sure a bunch of us will be racing to install it.
I'd recommend getting a new card for it so you can keep your old install in case there are bugs in the new one. Or, I guess you could make an image backup of your current install, but seems like a lot of work when the cards are so cheap.

The release notes...just read around the code for now. It will look better within web page when it is released.

Hmm..hopefully this allows Alcatel LTE to work too. I asked on Twitter, no response. If not, this might be my first attempt to contribute back to the project.

It's time to update! tesla-android-2022.44.1 is available. Instructions for both ways of installing, old way (32GB sd card) and new (requires 64GB+ sd card)
Almost had a heart attack when I read this "the image is exactly 64GB in size (this will be reduced in a future update)". I thought the download file was 64GB. No, it's only 3.2GB.
Ugh. Image size is 64.09GB on my Mac. Raspberry Pi Imager says my SD card is 62.5GB. No go. Guess I'll try clearing the format on the card.
Wiped the card using Windows DISKPART then CLEAN to remove any formatting. Mac still shows it as 62.53GB in Disk Utility.
Two other reports on Twitter of same issue. One guy has a SanDisk card. Mine is this one

i Used the manual install method (there is a link in release page) on my 32gb card. Might work on your 62.5GB (available space).
so far it feels really fast! Have not tried CarPlay yet. Gotta take kids out for Halloween. Gonna be a late night for me
tinkering with this new build after I get home.I went ahead and use a 128gb card instead as we would need breathing room for OTA updates in the future (although Michal said he will reduce the img size) just to be safe
Did the manual setup. Went well, but a couple of glitches. Worked fine on my laptop. First connection in car it couldn't get IP address but I just tried again and it took awhile but connected.
Then, in the Tesla browser I was getting "display service unreachable" or whatever. Clearing browser data on the Tesla was the fix. Seems OK, maybe faster, but I also got a Tesla update tonight.
Same here. Tesla software 2022.36.5

I used a 128GB to flash the large image and go the one step way. All worked except the Alcatel modem. Still does not connect to the cellular network. Not a problem since I have the micro router I mentioned previously so all work with this addon perfectly. Hopefully he fixes this Alcatel modem issue. It could a US problem only and that is why he does not have the problem on his testing.
I was able to connect to Wifi if I plug the box to the router but unplugging it returned the same issue

It seems the partition size for the single image install exceeds 64GB (as in powers of 10), it's 64,088,965,120 bytes. Most manufacturers sell SD cards using powers of 10, so a 64GB SD card wil...

The new version (2022.44.2) is working for me. Was able to flash the full image to my 64GB card, which failed due to disk size on 2022.44.1. Can also confirm he fixed the issue with the car not connecting to the pi when not using a LTE dongle.
I just flashed 2022.44.2 but top left banner still shows 2022.44.1. Are you seeing this as well?
