Departure Charging issues with 50.7

Is anyone else having departure charging issues with 50.7? Since that build has released, departure charging no longer functions. By that I mean, the car does not charge (at all) and pre-conditioning does not occur.

I have departure charging configured for weekdays with a departure time of 7:30am.

After two failures, I disabled departure charging and rebooted the MCU. I re-enabled departure charging last night and plugged in the car. The display indicated departure charging was enabled. But again, this morning, I found that the car hadn't charged and pre-conditioning hadn't occurred.

If I disable departure charging, the car charges immediately when I plug it in.

Knock wood, mine still works. However, I don't use the "weekdays" feature. Perhaps un-check that box and see how it goes.

When you check the phone application after you've plugged in does it indicate that there is a scheduled charge?

I've had departure schedule (set to start8am, plugged at 8pm) charging immediately instead of waiting sometime in the night once.
I tried it yesterday, plugged at 6pm, scheduled to leave at 7:30am. It charged from 3 to 5:30, reaching its target then, way too early. It started preconditioning/heating the car a bit before 7:30. I think there's still some hardcoded "end before 6am" logic in there that I don't need since I have a flat electricity fee.

yes, stopping by 6am is currently by design. Some areas have peak electricity times, and Tesla adhered to that model in their design.
