Firmware 8.0

[HX_Guy]

New software version detected on Teslafi.com...17.11.10, has gone to only X vehicles so far.

Anyone here got it?

EDIT: Wow...19 cars on EV-FW.com are reporting 17.11.10, including S vehicles. Surprised no mention of it here...anyone have some details?

My family's brand new X 100D just finished updating to 17.11.10. Not sure what differences there are yet. Might try some autopilot. Got 8.1 17.11.3 an hour after picking up car on Friday. AP 2.0 with 8.1 still isn't as smooth as our P85D with AP 1.0. With 200 miles of AP 2.0 driving. Hope 17.11.10 fix maps not loading properly.

Would you mind posting the release notes?

They are the same as 17.11.3

Just got the update myself... Waiting to return home to check it out. All I see on forums is the ability to press on the touchscreen a button to force open the falcon wing doors (which disappeared in 8.1). Anyone else notice other changes?

Shouldn't all these posts about 17.11.x go in the Firmware 8.1 thread?

 

[Tesdad]

Downloaded on my X AP 2 as well. Release notes the same as previous ver. Has Tesla ever done update without new notes ?

About ten of them that are covered in this thread alone...

Tesla's usual MO for bug fix releases is to repeat the release notes from the feature update they are fixing.

Yes, every one of them should be moved by the MOD.

Yes, every one of them should be moved by the MOD.

No, all the "I just got version xxx" posts should just be deleted. Put this info in the tracker, people, and stop posting about it.

Unless you have a comment to make about it beyond "I got it" or "I don't have it yet".

Both should happen. Move the 8.1.x posts to the 8.1 threads and delete the "I got it" and "downloading now" posts.

Can all you forum nazis post a link the deemed "official" 8.1 thread? I only see the 8.0 on the sticky topics of this forum

@Cricket88 There isn't just one there are 4 depending on what you are discussing:
Firmware 8.1 -- Thread for 'general' discussion common to all cars -- things like kernel and browser updates (ha ha), etc
Firmware 8.1 - Autopilot HW1
Firmware 8.1 - Autopilot HW2
Firmware 8.1 - Classics

The annoying thing is that there are no links to the 8.1 threads in this forum, which is the only forum I regularly check.

Look at the post just above yours for the links.
I'm sure once this becomes a fleet rollout the forum admins can make it sticky.

Those links don't have the "new post" indicator though, and require an extra redirection.

I still think having a Model S-specific 8.1 post is a good idea. All those falcon wing/easy entry discussions are not relevant to us.

Use the Watched Threads link. It let's you check all the threads you've posted in or selected to Watch in one place.

I have an idea, but do not follow the forums in detail nor often enough to implement myself. I, too, only manage to stumble over firmware news threads.

How about a thread where a link is posted to any new firmware version thread - including all the minor revision threads. Then folk could just WATCH that thread to keep up-to-date with update news, and WATCH any new threads, linked from that "New Firmware Posts" thread, that turn out to be of interest. If useful that thread could become sticky - and perhaps replace the Firmware 8.0 sticky as the "index" of all firmware threads.

If I had time I would "harvest" old threads into the initial post so that it served as a useful index of the ones that have gone by.

New Tesla Issued bumper sticker for HW2 cars coming out: "CAUTION I Brake hard for: Crosswalks, Overhead Signs, Signs on the side of the road, Overpasses, Ghosts, Manhole covers, dark spots on the road, random times when nothing is around, whenever I feel like waking up my driver!". I had hoped 17.11.3 would fix this, it's worse for me. And how would it have been to give us rain sensing wipers and auto high beam headlights.

Made me laugh !!
Going home yesterday it happened. Mystery emergency braking. What a trip. Then there was the flatbead tow truck slightly out of lane by the curb, that it didn't see. It just saw it and headed right for it w/out even thinking of stopping. Had we been inattentive - we'd have eaten the rear edge of the flatbead ... right thru the windshield ... both the real flatbead as well as its ghost image. Sure keeps us on our toes.
