That would be in line with the stalling number of installs detected via Teslafi and manual additions to the FW tracker. My first thought was that they simply do x amount of cars per day and monitor, but if already staged downloads are not getting installed, then there might indeed be an issue.

Still Trying to Figure This All Out
I hope it's better than the sequencing they were doing at the Model X reveal event last September.
Alarm clock is still there on my screen. Car is currently in a parking garage with 1 bar of LTE. I'm not going to start the install here, don't want to risk getting stranded if something goes haywire. In about half an hour I'll be at home connected to my WiFi and plugged in. Given Ingineer's concerns I think I'll wait an hour or two to see if the staged update gets yanked off then.

Excuse my ignorance Ingineer, but yanking means an actual roll back to 36.31 without explanation to the so-far-to-date recipients? And if queued but not installed, then a halt on it?
Scary but fascinating to understand the technical steps involved. Thank you.

Would someone explain how "Cabin Overheat Protection" work?
Can it be turned off?
The problem with giving owner a choice is: one unlucky day, a driver may manually turn it off at a wrong time!

Is this a manual yanking? Or does the FW installer ask for permission again before an already staged update is getting installed?
The car will use the cabin fan to draw cooler air in (or possibly a little bit of A/C in very hot environments) to keep the interior temperature below 105F.
According to the articles and release notes, it can be disabled, but is turned on by default, and will turn itself off when the battery hits 20% (but it supposedly uses very little battery energy - Elon said something about being able to run for a year on a single charge, not sure what conditions he's assuming.)

I'm seriously hoping they realized that someone forgot the letter shortcuts in the song list for USB media and that they are hurrying to get it back in.
You don't need internet to install once it's staged. But yeah, I think I'd drive home and make sure they don't yank it later. They'll be sending out a new version soon that fixes whatever they found to halt the rollout.
Source: Updates have stopped. At least according to that firmware tracker site.

I thought that site was just self reporting. Maybe people just stopped reporting?
