MCU1 performance improvement & browser improvement. Simple trick by Thomas The Tesla Tuner..

[BigMskiman]

Easiest fix to the non-functional browser is to just type "a" in the URL bar, which does a google search and works 100%. Then you can go back to your normal page (for me, azure waze). This is the only solution I've found but it works 100% of the time.

Tried it, no it does not help/work.

Sorry should have included my info, Model S 90D, 2016 September delivery, nose cone refresh, AP 1.0. Still on software 8.1 (2018.34.1), which sounds like it's still the best software

Since v10, no number of reboots have gotten the web browser to work. I think it's time to give it up.

my browser is completely dead since 2019.32.1
No amount of reboots can make it work again.
I still have to try a full car shut-down, TBH.

I havent been able to open pages on web browser, my user manual or SW update changelogs for at least 3 months.
No number of rebots, power offs, sketchpad tricks or recent SW updates have solvded this. My car is 1 year and 9 months old.
I really wish was something I can do to fix this.

Take it in for service and tell them to fix it.

Save yourself the time and angst. Forget that you have a browser if you have MCU1. Just forget about it.

They need to just remove it from MCU1 cars. Its incredibly embarrassing for myself and the brand when i give someone a ride and have to explain the browser never has worked

Well, we can play *some* video games. But, my wife now wants to take the X on trips simply because it has karaoke and the S does not!

I don’t agree. It worked in previous updates. Slow but basic sites like Tesla Waze were doing fine.
They must take some time to fix it.
I will not complain if they don’t add theatre to Mcu1 as it was never there to start with, but the browser was there in the initial offering.
I saw today a MCU2, and the improved map allows to select businesses and other POI on the map to show details, and allow to start navigate, call and -new- open the web page if any. That is also there for Mcu1 but with the current browser, that will not work.
I’d very much like that to work.

Quoting myself: yesterday night I had time to perform a full shut-down of the car, wait 5 minutes in the car, and then bring it up again (opening a door; pressing the brake pedal did nothing)
LO AND BEHOLD! the browser works again! It's slow as before, but at least it is now usable with teslawaze and abetterrouteplanner

Can confirm that 2019.32.11.1 restores browser functionality for MCU1.

I have the same experience. In 19.32.11 the browser, changelog and usermanual was completely dead. (also in the months before)
Yesterday I got 19.32.11.1 and they are actually working. Browser is actually halfway useable.

mine worked as well. Now back to white screen

I'll re-iterate another user's perception in another thread that v10 (2019.32.11.1) does appear snappier when it comes to things like navigation. I've long since given up on the browser (I prefer my phone anyway), but still happy to see our cars continuing to improve many years on!!

When my browse dies, google search doesn't work either. It's stuck on a solid white screen no matter what I type in the address bar. One or more reboots are required to get it to show any life.

Are you on 8.1? Tell your service center to fix it.

v9, 2019.32.2.1. Car out of warranty, not that it matters, since browser was broken before when car was under warranty, nothing service center can do but reset the car once of a few time, which will make the browser work for a bit, so they'll call it fixed.
