Firmware 7.0
- Thread starter MarcG
- Start date
This is a good idea.
Also, the warnings from parking sensors sometimes overlap the map directions. EXTREMELY annoying when you're standing at a complex intersection and need to check where to go. Why not use the toy car for that?
You're right. I didn't know the original poster was Tesla itself. Makes you wonder if they'll release that energy graph app as well. I am also kinda curious why they switched the order.

Oh NO! What happened to the energy graph inside the power meter?

If the yellow, green and red bar is for thermometer indicating 42 deg C, Lets get rid of that, and just show the time after the 42C. i.e temperature + time. Yellow, green red temperature bar is too confusing with the battery icon, imo.

I hope it gets to USA from Finland.

Still useful for people who like analog clock. :tongue: An analog speedometer with power/regen indicator on the circumference (like 6.2) but with energy graph in the center will be a better use of the IC left or right panel, imo.

I think he wants that to be the energy meter, but I can't figure out what the colors are supposed to represent.

That image is a leak and never released version of the firmware, but if I were to guess, the energy graph is in a separate "app" (as it should be).

I actually like the current power/regen meter and energy graph in one app, simply because I want to see both without using 2 panels. I can understand from a non-AP POV, the energy and power meters can be separate, but for AP with the car and lane markings in the middle, we need to better utilize the valuable space.
For classic UI, simply replace the clock with the energy graph as you wish:wink:

I finally contacted Tesla HQ about my OTA issue (no OTA received since Jan. 29) at 12:20 PM and got a response at 2:14 PM saying that they were looking into it and another at 3:15 PM that my car was downloading the update. When I checked my car at 5:45 PM, I saw the update icon and started the process, which appeared to take somewhere between 30 minutes and an hour. Anyway, I hope that means the issue is resolved. I can't wait for 7.1 to bring back some of the missing dash data.
One thing I noticed that I haven't seen mentioned was that the walk-away door lock delay seems shorter. Before, sometimes when walking in from the garage, I'd wait a little bit at the door to watch it lock. This time, after checking out the v7 changes, there was hardly any wait. Could anyone confirm that it actually changed and isn't just me?

That was my impression today. No data, just seemed a bit shorter (returning house keys to car after unlocking house).

What point version of 7.0 / 2.7 did you get, (.56, .77, other)? I can't tell from the firmware tracker (maybe I need a lesson there) how to tell if any .77 reports are from the U.S.

It's is my crayon attempt to mock-up a live energy use bar. Cross-hatches show limited regen, green shows regen range, red is showing power in use and 42 is the answer to the .. umm the amount of power currently being used, or regenerated.
Power output bar probably nice in the same blue color as the Autopilot icons vs. red in hindsight. And I like my crosshatches the other way.
Wouldn't this make sense ??
Might need to be a little simpler to interpret. Like a box that's 1/4 for regen on the left, and 3/4 is for power. And just tint from the left or right in yellow or whatever to indicate limited regen or power, but sticking with green for regen and orange for power would keep it clear. Then the 0 point would be at ~1/4 from the left, going up the right and down to the left. Along with the actual numeric value this would be *perfect*. I would literally pay for something like this.

They must have felt bad that I was the last to get updates for so long. :wink:Tracker shows that Pilot_51 got .77. He's the only one with .77 in the USA on the tracker.

It would be animated.. real-time. I don't feel like making an animated GIF right now though haha

Sounds like we're on the same page. I think they want to reduce the focus on the speeds and feeds for "average" buyers, but this is a like a tach in a typical car plus much more, and I expect a tachometer in any decent ICE even with an automatic transmission...

Oh ya it was orange for power output, I almost forgot already :smile:

It has no accuracy whatsoever. There is literally no way to distinguish say 60 kW from 30 kW. You literally can't even tell when it's actually at 100 kW since there isn't even a tick there. When on a long trip I like to keep my power usage under 1/2C (~40 kW). Impossible with the new energy meter on AP cars.
