Firmware 6.1

[apacheguy]

Updating for 56 minutes so far. I'm guessing another 10 or so...

Wow that's long. The previous updates I've been able to watch over have been 20-30 min. I wonder if it takes longer because of torque sleep on the Ds. That being lower level code and all.

What are others experiences? How long does the update process take?

The 2.0.77 to .81 update took about 65 to 75 minutes on the D also had an eta of 45 minutes

Edit: at the 75 minute mark now... still "Update in progress"

SO EXCITED! As someone said - it's like Christmas. :-D

And did I read right . . . it'll finally default to average? Finally. ;-)

I <3 Tesla.

Yep. Finally defaults to average! Such a small thing but people have been asking for that for over two years.

Hopefully I can train myself not to tap to correct it every time I get in the car. ;-)

Just started updating my P85D. Wonder if there are an specific P85D model updates, hopefully the torque efficiency update. Though I doubt it because that is scheduled for late January.

Promising something "--BY-- the end of January" (which is what Straubel did in the blog) is not the same as scheduling something --FOR-- late January. I am optimistic.

I got the update notification yesterday, and scheduled the update for last night. Woke up earlier than usual to check what I got.

I was worried that the white guidelines do not show up properly on snow (which there will be on the ground for at least 4 more months here), but they seem to show reasonably well. Now if they just could come up with a way to keep the reverse camera lens clean..

I'm not even going back to the garage until wk057 says his is done. Its cold out there.

That's because yours has started, so you don't have to. I'm willing to bet my garage is colder than your garage, and I've been out there several times already, and am going out again now, hoping to be able to start mine! (Get out the tiny violins.)

Edit: I have the update! Just realized, though, that I was so excited, and so cold, that I came back inside without actually seeing that it was updating, after starting the countdown timer. So I guess I'm going out one more time. The dog already thinks I've lost my mind!

Can someone who has this update please let me know if you hold the fob trunk button in for three seconds does it pop open the charge port door?

Already works on both my cars without 6.1.

Not mine and others which is why I wanted to know if it was included in this update but I don't see it in the notes people have posted.

I'm pretty sure this was mentioned in the release notes upthread.

Great - thanks. I missed that. I'm really looking forward to getting this update

Update finished on the D. Looks the same as the previous autopilot ready non-D cars in terms of the release notes. No new D specific things mentioned. No new D specific settings that I've come across so far on the controls/settings screens. No new acceleration mode.

Took right around two hours to finish the update from the time it actually said updating to the last reset.

Looking forward to trying out the new features in this release, but not so much that I'm going to stay up to take a spin right now :biggrin:

Thanks for the information. Not the news we were hoping for, but thank you for delivering it. (I can go to sleep now, even if my rear motor can't yet!)

Clever!

Another P85D here in the middle of upgrading. I'll find out in the morning if we get any new acceleration mode, but I somehow doubt it given the late-January estimate for torque sleep mode.

 

[wk057]

Fell asleep when it was 90 minutes into updating.

Woke up, it was done. No normal mode and my quick highway drive reveals no obvious efficiency improvement.

Release notes look the same as everyone else with autopilot hardware.

v6.1 (2.2.92)

 

[LetsGoFast]

Same here. Cruise control is cool, but no apparent D changes. Range and efficiency seems the same. Lots of cool new features though. This just means we have another update to anticipate this month.
