Firmware 7.0 Beta Discussion

[Cyclone]

Firmware v7.0

Since we already have tons of posts in the old v7 thread (that is now the v7 Beta Discussions thread), I thought we'd open a new one.

v7.0 a.k.a. 2.6.220 is in the wild with auto-steer and auto-lane change!


Edit to add: This looks like another case of regular people "accidentally" getting the beta release alongside some EAP people. I'll ask a mod to unsticky this and collapse it into the Beta Discussion thread.

As in a general release, beyond early access owners?

It's been 4 minutes already, where are the pictures and complaints? :wink:

Firewall at work is making things difficult. I'm trying!

Someone just mentioned 7.0 update in his car. Not beta(?). Check Tesla World Wide facebook.

At this point I now definitely believe it's intentional leaking from Tesla so we get some fodder to chew on.

I don't know if it was just beta or not. That same David Rowland guy said that he received his as not a part of the Early Release Program.

This is beta 2, please merge with the other thread.

 

[JMG]

Well check that, the pictures have been deleted from Facebook. But the cats outta the bag. I wish we could've seen some images of the new dash.

Tell him if he wants to keep it that he should NOT install the update he's going to get any time now that reverts him back to 6.2... lol

OMG, they brought torque sleep to RWD only vehicles. From the EAP release notes:
- Improved performance at top speed and initial start (below 3 mph), even on RWD vehicles
- torque sleep on RWD vehicles
- improved regen on 60 kWh cars
- faster and more efficient climate control
- hill hold on all road grades, even flat
- parallel parking for AP cars
- improvements to side collision warning system (better range)
- individual tire pressure readings
- power meter on energy app and energy app automatically shows up when limiting is in effect

Lane keep? (I saw from the screenshot)

What happened to stall parking? I guess the naysayers might of been correct.

 

[Kalud]

This is huge (I mean, I was thinking about it almost daily):

- Improved Driving Experience at Low Speeds
Smooth consistent torque near zero speed: When you shift to drive, there will be a smooth transition from rolling backwards to forward as you accelerate through zero speed.

- individual tire pressure readings

Finally :biggrin:

Watch it require the newer TPMS sensors and thus, my car won't benefit. But I'd be happy to be wrong about this!

See Dropbox - Screenshots

NICE!

Why am I never the "wrong" person to receive V7.0? I wouldn't post anything about it, and just quietly use it!

Screen shots from latest beta Autopilot release that was posted to Worldwide FB group and then quickly pulled. Screen shots are from two different owners...

As posted in the other thread, I don't understand how P42444 can have AP hardware. The earliest VIN to have AP should be in the 50,000's per Model S Order Delivery - Google Sheets

It's entirely possible the two above screenshots are from a different car. OR, there's a bug in this 7.0 release that shows AP toggle switches even if AP hardware isn't available.

Yeah. Don't think us classics will see the TPMS app.

Two different cars, I saw the two guys posting the pics before they were removed from Facebook.
