Just got the notification to go from 149.25 to I think 149.30, can anyone tell me what the changes are.

It was reported here that there is an issue with 12V battery drain, its probably that small fix being pushed:

They said the issue is that with shore-power battery pack warming (a new feature?) at times the contacts remain open and can drain the 12V battery. A fix is supposedly going to be pushed soon.

Yes, please do this is you get the chance Steve. I would do it myself, but haven't received .30

Sorry.. Closest s/c is 80 miles north....

I have verified that even with 1.49.24 (and 25?) the Low option is allowed 'while in Park' but NOT at highway speeds. The question is whether with 1.49.30 (or 29), it is now activated again at highway speeds.....

I updated to .30 this AM. No auto lowering at highway speeds - I tried during a lunchtime drive and it stayed at standard.

In the last 10 days I've had 3 updates - first to .22 OTA, then to .25 at the service center and last night to .30 OTA. Haven't noticed anything different. One buglet with .30 was the 3G strength meter was stuck at 1 bar. A reboot cleared that up.

One complaint, after an upgrade, slacker search data is cleared out. Now, it also looks like a console reboot clears the search data as well. That is pretty annoying. When do we get Pandora???

Curious: Am I the only one who got a message saying "setting not allowed" with ride height?

I got it while driving but not when stationary.

I believe that the .25, .27, .28 and now .30 are all bug fixes so no big changes will be noted. All the release notes are the same. With a major change comes a new release note.

 

[Electric Machete]

I noticed that Slacker doesn't seem to have as many skips and pauses as before. After that last update it was an absolute mess. Seems better now.

It auto-lowers above 55 again ?!

I sense a blog post coming.

 

[Mayhemm]

I sense a blog post coming.

Why? Nothing seems to have changed.

Steve reported his "low mode denied" message no longer appears, but Lawsteve confirmed the car still does not auto-lower.

I can also confirm that the car does *NOT* auto-lower. Nothing really appears to have changed between .24 and .30.

How long did it take for an update? This is my first update, but it appears to be frozen?

I tried to reboot with the two steering wheel - wheel buttons held...but no response.

How else can you get out of the update screen? Is there another way to reboot?

Thanks.

even when you hit 100mph? it no longer lowers at >97.5mph?

 

[ACDriveMotor]

I got notice and installed 1.49.30 last night. No issues, but also no news on what issues were addressed. I want to re-enable scheduled charging so I may talk to the SC to see if this fixes.

I didn't try that

 

[Pollux]

Thank you, @jerry33!

The battery is preheated when you use the App to turn on cabin heat and/or charging. Typically you set the charge so that it ends shortly before you leave and then about 30 minutes before you leave, turn on the cabin heat with the App.

From another thread on here:

"I had this pushed to me on Monday at the SC here locally. This is a bug fix for for schedule charge in cold weather. In extreme cold weather like <35 degreesF sometimes the car didn't want to wake up so this should take care of that problem. Or at least that is what the SC mgr told me. "





We had situations like that here in Dallas last week. The car's ext temp showed 30F IN THE GARAGE and was a bit sluggish waking up. Upgrade away, baby!

I just realized that battery UI now shows light/door status. that was on about screen but has been missing since 5.x update...

I knew that about screen showed these stauts but I did not know about battery UI. it may have been there before but new to me.
