I got 2.28.19 pushed out to my car in Abu Dhabi. Normally I only get the updates that are pushed out to the whole fleet. My last update was 2.20.45. My nearest SuperCharger is now in Dugopolje, Croatia - only 2,514 miles away.

Well, I guess you won't be using that one very often.I got 2.28.19 pushed out to my car in Abu Dhabi. Normally I only get the updates that are pushed out to the whole fleet. My last update was 2.20.45. My nearest SuperCharger is now in Dugopolje, Croatia - only 2,514 miles away.
Firmware 7.1I was told that every car gets the same full download, then the car extracts the particular version for it.
I would have to assume that, since AP was/is an advertised, explicitly paid for feature, Tesla Motors will not disable the feature you paid for or 1) they'll need to write a lot of people a check for the difference and/or 2) buy back the cars of people who ask as they did not deliver as promised (note what VW is going through right now with their diesel disaster).
Lookup what happened with Smart Air Suspension in 2013 after a media freakout about a car hitting a tow hook. Tesla admitted that even though chances of it happening again were astronomical, they still disabled it to show that they are proactively doing something. They never put that in any release notes, nor even admitted they are doing it on purpose when the first few owners contacted them about why Air Suspension doesn't work anymore while driving (it worked while parked and raised back up when driving) - this is so people don't skip the update. I asked for a refund of my Air Suspension and all I got back is "sorry, we don't do that". I came close to declaring my car a lemon as it was brand new and service center couldn't " fix" the air suspension which under my state law would qualify as a lemon car. SAS got re-enabled months later after the titanium plate retrofit. Bottom line, it is not at all unlikely that given enough media pressure, Tesla will disable auto-pilot, pretend they don't know what happened, then tell you they are working on a solution with some deadline they are going to blow by months.I would have to assume that, since AP was/is an advertised, explicitly paid for feature, Tesla Motors will not disable the feature you paid for or 1) they'll need to write a lot of people a check for the difference and/or 2) buy back the cars of people who ask as they did not deliver as promised (note what VW is going through right now with their diesel disaster).
Now, when the firmware is downloaded the server tries to make a binary patch for the car based on the current version its running if the version delta isn't too great. This saves some bandwidth. But when the patch is applied the resulting image is the same as every S/X with that version.

It's software so, theoretically, anything is possible. There could be code that recognizes particular VINs and does something entirely different for each one. Choices could be made at random. Choices could depend on the phase of the moon. In theory, they could do anything at all.I was trying to support the argument that it was theoretically possible...

That wasn't the case for Hong Kong owners. They had it disabled for a while due to government then had it reenabled later on.I would have to assume that, since AP was/is an advertised, explicitly paid for feature, Tesla Motors will not disable the feature you paid for or 1) they'll need to write a lot of people a check for the difference and/or 2) buy back the cars of people who ask as they did not deliver as promised (note what VW is going through right now with their diesel disaster).

I think you'll find the three superchargers in Jordan are much closer.I got 2.28.19 pushed out to my car in Abu Dhabi. Normally I only get the updates that are pushed out to the whole fleet. My last update was 2.20.45. My nearest SuperCharger is now in Dugopolje, Croatia - only 2,514 miles away.
Try summoning with your key fob.Just finished installing 2.28.19. Surprise! Nothing new in the release notes. Didn't notice any changes, but haven't driven it yet.
Mine works. Do you have "continuous press" off?Try summoning with your key fob.
Summon-by-fob went away after this am's update.
It was off before the update. Update changed the setting.Mine works. Do you have "continuous press" off?
It was off before the update. Update changed the setting.
Stuff like this would be very helpful to see in release notes whenever they change a setting back to default or otherwise change its meaning.

Before you all go blaming Tesla you should know my setting of "off" didn't change with this update. So maybe not everyone had this problem?And easily gleanable from regression testing notes. Presuming that their QA teams are not the redheaded stepchildren of the organization as is often the case, and that sufficient regression testing is in fact being done. Even smoke testing would catch some of this stuff, but by then it's a little late.
For all of the silly FUD put forth as an excuse for why release/change notes are not given, there's a huge (dare I say potentially yuuuuuuge) amount of liability in *not* keeping your customers in the loop when the UI is changed out from under them.
