It feels like the maps rollout has been suspended. The last map update confirmation I have seen was nine days ago (Friday, September 12).

The fact that you detect no changes does not prove that they did not happen any more that the fact that other people think they feel changes proves that they happen. :smile:
The difference, of course, is that people reporting changes say "may be", but your are so sure... It is so easy to ride imaginary high horse with the sarcastic smile...

My post said that I was sure that I have not detected the changes in question that others have said they detect.

I got 6.0 this morning. At first, I thought regen braking changes some of you reported are just in your mind but not real. My apologies, I was wrong, the regen is not as hard as before, and the amount of energy you get back at some point is more than before. That's why the regen doesn't have to be as hard to come up with 60kw back to the pack.
I wish that they kept it the same and we got 70kw instead
.
Overall, the experience is different but better. The screen is more responsive now and the speedo is more elegant and futuristic.

I'm not the only dorkus maximus who did this? Cool. It was my first ever update, so had to watch. Indeed, nothing much happens, but the car does wig out a bit. The displays come on and off, the steering wheel buttons light up and turn off, fans spin up and spin down, and various solenoids go ka-chunk. To what end, I have no idea.
If anyone knows, I'd be curious -- are these just side effects, or is there some sort of testing or calibration taking place?
It also indicated that you see other people reporting the changes you do not detect manifesting symptoms of hallucination. Totally unnecessary remark IMO.
I'm gonna +1 this suggestion as well. My hope is that this will come in the form of battery swap stations so as to eliminate the load on service centers. I think the way to make it low cost is to give a generous and fair credit for the pack that is being replaced. Tesla/Solar City together could sure use a sizable amount of grid storage.

There should be an alarm clock icon to the right of the Tesla T at top of your screen. Touch that icon.

Love the new Regen......Hate the new speedo! Calendar feature is great too!
Yes! It's still terrible, but much less so. It feels like upgrading from dial-up to ISDN.
Not sure why but it seems like a very large batch of people finally got 6.0. It seems more than has been the case since it first started. I was at an event with some other Tesla owners today and three of us got 6.0 overnight. We were all charging while parked for the National Drive Electric Week. Good thing that our cars initialized normally we were all parked on a "mall" that is normally off limits to traffic. Would have made bad news clips to see Teslas being towed away from the event. So far not noticing anything noticeably different. I wonder how many of the people like myself who received a new version of 5.12 just before 6.0 started rolling, finally got the software today.

@jkliu47, @bollar,
I added another fob antenna half way down the side of the car, to improve the fob signal reception. It helped. Now, nearly every time I go up to the charge port, the handles present and I can unlock the UMC. I posted instructions for this mod on teslatap.com in case you are interested in how I did it.

Don't jump on @ecarfan. It was me who introduced the word hallucinating as a point of humor, but only half in jest. It's a real thing that we notice stuff after a release that is not always new or a change. I can point out hundreds of such posts in the various firmware threads. It's a human tendency, so it's ok to post what you perceive, but also ok for others to try to debunk.
I am totally cool with debunking, but calling something that one does not perceive a hallucination hardly qualifies as debunking...

I slogged through almost 700 posts and haven't seen this mentioned - 6.0 does not have the map magnification setting anymore?! I prefer the small text because the map looks "cleaner." After updating to 6.0 this morning I can't find the setting.
