"Hard" reboot... nonsense, right?

One thing I saw is that the limiting of supercharging speed on my 90 pack was initiated by a person logging in on the car.

Interesting. I would love to know more about that.

All this is pure speculation and in line with Tesla’s very poor customer communications.

Also interested in details. Are you just speculating that your reduced supercharging speed was connected to the remote login? Did it happen without accepting a software update? Is the remote address logged? How did you reach the conclusion that a person manually initiated something?

I will put a snippet of the log in here tomorrow. It says something like “changed fastcharging from 1 to 2 by loggedon user wzhang on... “ etc.

This is very interesting! Are you rooted? Wonder if someone who is rooted can change the value of fastcharging variable between 1 and 2 and compare the difference. Maybe @wk057 or @TonyT ?

Thanks everyone for this good information. I have long contended that there was no "hard" reset for the exact same reasons, including having consulted with every Tesla Tech I have come in contact with. It is always funny when someone like @Duke-U promises to return with content and is never heard from again.

I was really impressed in this Troll happy environment how few people came to this thread to disagree. Perhaps it didn't garner enough eyeballs, as it was also not visited by authoritative rooted figures who could post log files showing the steps of a reset.

Interesting to hear about the streaming services cloud data. I know they no longer give out your account info so you can access Tune-In on your home computer, but I also had a tech offer to reset my car to Factory to RESOLVE a Tune-In issue. I had accidentally hit the Thumbs Down button for the song Tesla Girls, I was so excited to hear it I stabbed at pressing the Thumbs Up. If you hit Thumbs Down you will NEVER hear that song again. Yikes!

He said that doing a reset to Factory will cause the account number to autogenerate a NEW account number, so you would lose all your saved songs. But I have only heard the one tech say that, could just be more VooDoo.

I just suffered from the service center doing a factory reset of my MCU to rectify my report of frequent crashes that I believe are do to a hardware problem (eMMC?). I lost not only all of my settings (no, they did not restore these), but also my trip odometers, which held my running total energy and average Wh/mi for the life of my vehicle (which greatly disappointed me). Nevertheless, I did not lose my Slacker account, contrary to the claim you heard. It is true that when I first tried to pull up the "Streaming" section, it came up with a login screen, which I, at first, thought confirmed your report (but I believe was just due to a connection problem). However, after a bit of going back and forth, it logged in fine and I confirmed that "likes" I had previously set on songs were still present.

@Randy Spencer To be honest, I couldn't find the files on my laptop and since I live in my summerhouse during the viruscrisis, had no access to my files on my home computer. And then forgot all about it, sorry.

This is a snippet from the Gatway.cfg file:

rhd 0

seattype 2
seatfabrictype 0
memorymirrors 1
ocs 0
euvehicle 1

# access-internal-dat.pl 2019-06-21 07:12:55: Teleforce user wzhang changed fastChargeInstalled from 1 to 2

Edit: I am not rooted, I had my eMMC replaced when I saw the first signs of wear. The guy doing that gave me a memory card with all the data of the eMMC on it, so that you can restore even when the whole chip goes down.

Edit2: @kavyboy @thecloud tagged so you get a ping.

Sorry to pick on you Duke-U, I was trying to point out a trend on this site, but way to not be that guy, after all.

I am excited to know the goings-on in my Tesla some day
