Firmware 6.0

Static web pages are no longer cached. It goes and gets them every single time--and it's way slower to do that than it was in 5.9.

Having repeated problems with my 3G connection dropping out. Google maps of course is lost as is nav during these times. I have rebooted the screen each time and things seem to return to normal eventually. The problem is not a weak 3G signal as I am in strong signal zones when it happens. Not sure if it is a 6 problem (I am on the latest version) or something else. If it persists, I'll ask Tesla to take a look on my next visit.

This is a known bug in V6.0 (.15). Many of us also can't use our USB audio files - causes a crash every time. Connectivity is lost and takes a few minutes to restore, even after reboot.

I have been told by two different SCs that Tesla is working on a fix for this problem.

My guess is that there is an address conflict in the use of the memory space. I suspect that V6.0 is using some of the solid space storage that originally was to be for us to store music files (never implemented), and which more recently we were told was being used to cache Google maps segments. If the directories for our USBs are also stored in that space, then there is a lot of stuff there, and it would be easy to see how there could be some conflicts.

i'm going to join the bandwagon on this one and say my regen sucks after 6.0, definitely not what it used to be.

Did you just say "Bug Report" and then release the button or did you add commentary before releasing? What feedback did you get?

Bug Report... content of bug report

One was a nav thing, I forget the other. It told me something like "thank you" and took screenshots to include with the report.

FWIW, if there is any change it's very subtle and for me it only happens at the very end just before I put on the brakes to stop. It used to decelerate rapidly at that point and now it's smoother. from 60 to very slow doesn't seem to have changed (based on my test off-ramp)

Does anyone else not have 6.0 yet? At 2,000 a day, it seems like it should hit all the cars at this point, but I'm still on 5.

Lot's of us don't have 6.0 yet. There is a separate thread going: Got Firmware 6.0?

I had this exact problem today as I was shuttling David Suzuki around!

I've had that pretty much since day 1. When it gets frequent enough to be super annoying, I'll re-boot the 17" screen which seems to fix the problem for a few weeks.

The most recent version (8.0.2) hasn't fixed it yet. Mac forums say it's supposed to be fixed in 8.1 which is in beta.

I'm still on 5.14 with the new iPhone and bluetooth is working fine, just as a note.

I'm having the bluetooth issue with the new iPhone and 5.14. It's not a universal problem, but Apple is plainly at the root cause based on all issues that people are having with other vehicles.

Have you guys tried to toggle the regen settings and then reboot? This has worked with past upgrades that had the same regen issues.

 

[galangg]

iPhone 6, no problems with iOS 8 or 8.02. Mind you, I'm still on 5.14 so who knows what will happen when 6.0 finally makes an appearance.

I'm in the same boat.

Waiting for 6.0

I don't have 6.0 yet. Been waiting for a message. VIN 29288

had 6.0 for 2 1/2 weeks at least now. No issues really.

Not in love with traffic navigation

My take Version 6.0 | Tesla Owner

 

[ecarfan]

Have 6.0 and wife and I just got iPhone 6 Plus phones that we right away updated to iOS 8.0.2. No problem pairing them with the S and using them.

I'm on this wagon too. This is my only real complaint about 6.0.

 

[JerryNycom]

Regen is definitely lower....No jerk like before, but seems I need more braking.....

 

[golfski]

Definitely noticed a much smoother deceleration with regen when coming off of cruise control, which I thought was great! Before, the transition was so violent, even though you expected it - it didn't feel as natural as when taking your foot off the accelerator. That's probably do to the pedal actually having to recoil and controlling some of the deceleration there. Manually coming off the accelerator I did not notice any difference in regen though. Have had it for about a week or two.

I remember in previous updates this sometimes happened. Has anyone tried the turning it to Low and then back to Standard trick to see if that returns the regen to the old way? #olderteslaownerwisdom
