Santa came to Texas (vin 118xxx) while sleeping at 11:35 CST and installing now. Already installed 7.1.2.36.31 so I'm guessing/hoping it's 8.0. I'll know when I wake up again in 3 hours. (Hope I can sleep since I have a busy day today.)I'm in Texas. Delivery last month. 90d, AP 151xxx nothing yet

Car is now downloading the 8.0 patch files.(From router data)
All i did today is a 2 hour car wash.
Folks who has not received 8.0 go wash your car.
It might think itself being too dirty XD

Before anyone asks, no there are not new maps. Still on the Q1 2015 version. (I checked the server)
This means he was running really old maps and just hadn't been on WiFi before (or long enough) to get the current version.
They are almost 5 gigs and so Tesla usually waits until you are on WiFi before sending them.
The patchfile size is dependent on what version you had before, as it's basically a list of changes.
If you came from 2.36.31 and went to 2.36.108, then your patch file was 181 megs.

What if I'm never on wifi (or only very briefly every now and then)? Does that mean I'll never get map updates?

Woke up this morning and at 12.22 AM I had a notification on my phone that "Tesla Software Update is Available".
Ran out quickly to the barn and started the sucker up.
Was on WiFi, BTW, my trusty eero mesh network.

I have to agree with bmah. Adding a simple check box doubles the number of potential states of the system, significantly adding to the testing surface and complicating CM. Sure, this may be a trivial option, but add enough of them and you're lost control of your system.
Just a minor observation; has the scale on the accelerate/regen dial changed from 7.1 to 8.0 and does it appear to register a much smoother change in values as you accelerate or is that just a perception thing. Previously a high reading of 400+ Kw and now 300+ Kw. Or have I missed this being reported. I know, such a minor change, but why? The regen is reported stronger in 8.0 but the scale appears the same so why the acceleration change? (I don't have 8.0 but based on the video clips I have seen.)
I did on Saturday. Oddly, I was misses with it I'm 7.1 - not picking up parallel spaces all the time. 8 worked for me.

First thing I noticed right off the bat on 8.0 is that the amount of time for my iPhone Tesla Ap to link to the Model S appears to be much faster. Usually from my library, I can expect a 10 to 15 second spinning arrow around the T.... perhaps 1 second now. Although just after the update (which took 1HR and 2 Mins BTW), maybe the Silver Surfer is shall we say... Awake?
I gotta layer up with some clothing and get out there to pat the new baby... it is chilly outdoors this AM at 42 F.... gotta remember to turn on Range Mode. Burrrrr

It's an Asus RT-AC68
It's running the standard Asus firmware and user interface.

What about the icons in XM?? It'd be nice to see the station graphics instead of a plain white screen and XM station numbers in your favs list.

I do. Bear in mind this is a stick that used to work. If you read 2-300 messages forward in the thread :-/ you'll see I eventually did get it to work, by turning off energy-saving I think. I'm trying to reproduce the bug and reproduce the workaround now, before filing a bug report.
Apart from all the other ugly things, at least with my stick they appear to have slowed down the rate at which they scan it by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude. :-(

I hate when nontechnical people say stuff like this. "It's just a button on a page, shouldn't take much to add." Clueless people who have no idea what processes on the backend may be impacted.
