Service installed v6.1 2.2.200 today

So 21 more builds since the last release? Sounds like they are working on TACC and/or torque sleep pretty hard. Good to know.

Build numbers can be misleading. I don't know the process they are using to manage sources and releases. But I wouldn't put too much weight on this...

It is incredibly annoying that there are no release notes! :-(

 

[dirkhh]

So true. Allegedly they promised to improve that. I'll believe it when I see it...

Forgot to post a pic of 2.2.200

Do not hold your breath! Most of these sub-releases with no notes are tweaks and fixes. If there's not a change to the UI, Tesla does not provide notes. I conjecture that is out of caution that the auto industry regulators might consider OTA bug fixes a recall, and put onerous notification and reporting requirements on them. Silliness, but when you've got majority of auto mfgs trying to do you in, who also have lobbyists and legislators in their pockets... you finish the picture!

I'll be happy if they just release an updated manual for 6.1.

Unless you absolutely want a pdf version, the one in the car using the touch screen is up to date.

There is a pdf on the TM website which includes everything on v6.1 as far as I can tell.

Me too--just got my car back today and got .200 (May 2013 S85).

Has anyone received .200 OTA or is it all just SC installs so far?

 

[spentan]

I think it's SC, mine hasn't installed yet (clock)

But I was at the SC when I got the notice.

I would've thought that *.200 would be 6.2 but I guess not

I received an OTA upgrade to .200 last night (3/17). I have one of the last P85's made.

Thanks.
I guess it's the translated version that I have on "my tesla" that lags then.

Just learned an interesting nugget from my service advisor. At some point in time a firmware build was pinging the TPMS sensors more than necessary/required, and thus the TPMS batteries were/are degrading faster than expected. The later firmware corrected this problem. But if you have a TPMS warning, ask your advisor to pull the logs and check the battery voltages. And, no, I do not know which versions/numbers of firmware had this issue or when it was corrected.

I have a 1.5 TB Seagate HD plugged into my USB port to store all my FLAC files. Anyone else on 6.1 notice that files are getting indexed twice? Almost every song is listed twice in the media app.

I've tried rebooting (didn't fix it) and verified that there was only one set of files on the drive.

How long do you think this will survive the temperatures / vibration in your car?
Anyway I had this happen with earlier releases as well. And then it randomly disappeared. So I don't think this is new in 6.1

Guess I'll find out, but it seems as though plenty of people here have been running USB hard drives in their car for years without trouble.
