Just got new update: 2017.42 a88c8d5

Version: 2017.42 a88c8d5

Car is a Sept 2017 build 75D.

Release notes in image.

First time I sat through an update. Wild! All sort of clicks, humming, fans spinning up (the APE fans are LOUD at full blast) and power cycles. Also I swear I hear a HDD spinning. I can’t imagine Tesla isn’t solely using SSDs, but unless my ears are deceiving me...

Also there should be an Easter egg that happens during the install for those that sit through it! ;)

Also nice that AEB enablement happened so quickly for AP2.5. Actually within the guidance, and the low-speed vs full-speed updates are basically back to back.

Maybe I'm an optimist this late at night, but sounds like someone at Tesla is learning.

Just updated and sat through. I didn’t get an Easter egg. What was it? ;(
 
TeslaFi shows 5 of these already. That is fast!

Also, 17.42 is suppposed to have whatever firmware fix for the bug I ran into that blew me out of the water: no power steering/parking sensors. Pretty much dead car. Rare code branch somehow that was fixed here.

Wonder if it also has whatever was being tested in 17.41 and 17.41.6 that two or three cars got?

I am one of the 5 on TeslaFi Lee, got it on my X last night. Hoping it has the fix for HomeLink as well, but who knows, it's not mentioned in the release notes.

Excellent... can you test it? Of course, it’s one of the things that we won’t know does the trick until it doesn’t break for a while! The Homelink fix was supposed to be in 17.41, also, but that doesn’t appear to be a large rollout from what we’ve seen so far. This one (we hope) is a real release. (But what do we know... :). ).

And, I don’t believe Tesla ‘reports’ fixes like that in RN, usually. Only new features. Someone can add more to this if they have other info. I don’t recall bug fixes/error corrections before!

Yeah I will "test" the HomeLink, but as you say it is a negative test scenario and I am not going to try to trigger it like you did ;)

ROFLMAO... I have been assured what happened is not reproducible. Seriously. I asked if there was anything I should do or not do, and the answer was No.

Seems to have been a random event that triggered a firmware branch to ‘never return’. :eek:

And it was 17.42.... four hours from TeslaFi email to getting it. That’s quick! Only weird thing was, I went out to the car to see if I could ‘coax’ a download and the timer icon told me I had something. No notifications on the app for having it waiting or when it finished. (Took the usual 40 minutes, and I watched most of it. X’s seem mostly silent, as opposed to the S’s noises! Most of the sounds come from the charger relays going on and off in the rear.

Anyone else having notification issues? Here we go again with app issues? Seems to be working fine otherwise....
