Model S Software/Firmware Updates

[napabill]

So, we have a SuperCharger network effective yesterday but no cars that can use it as the software hasn't been updated. Is that correct? I've been waiting for the first users experiences and it has been deathly quiet. Like free fuel ain't not big thing. Come on folks, post!

E-mailed my delivery specialist this morning about not getting the update last night and they jumped right on it. They pushed the update to the car about an hour ago and I just finished installing it. Heading from Sunnyvale back to Los Angeles in a few minutes. Will post pictures and updates as I stop at each of the three SuperChargers along the way.

Excited for you and anxious to hear how your trip went. Best of luck in your journey home doc!

So did anyone get the new SuperCharger firmware update last night? I picked up my car yesterday and they promised I'd get the notice by 10pm last night so I would have the new firmware to drive back to LA today using the SuperChargers. No notice last night or this morning. I already e-mailed my delivery specialist.

Maybe they do them in VIN order or something. I was prompted at about 5pm yesterday and it installed at 2am as expected.

The update came through for me yesterday and it seems to have broken my ability to connect via Bluetooth. Anyone else?

Still don't have mine yet for VIN 85.

Since I haven't been able to connect with the Bluetooth module at all yet (it wants a password about which I have no clue), I don't know if the update further compromised that function. However, the tilt down mirror function no longer works, although the Controls screen says that function is "On". Anyone else on this one?

Just updated to to 1.15.8. Bluetooth still works.
I'm not sure mirror tilt has ever worked but I've had it on since the car arrived.

Have you been following the 'workaround' where you put the car in reverse, then adjust the mirror, then the seat, then save the whole shebang? Does that not work?

That saves the settings but I believe harry was talking about the auto-tilt for the side view mirrors when you put car in reverse.

You need to adjust the mirrors to the desired setting while in reverse then auto-tilt will work. Just make sure you save settings before switching driver profile.

Yep, that's what I was talking about. It has to be in reverse to set the reverse setting.

I've never owned a car with this feature before. Just assumed it would auto-tilt down to some preset position but makes more sense that you set it yourself. Thanks.

Are you initiating the pairing from the car, or phone? From watching Cinergi's videos, it seems that the best (only?) way of successfully pairing is by starting the process from the car.

Reverse no longer takes up entire top of screen with camera view hiding the Homelink button.

Thanks! And, is that what you are backing into everyday?! That looks quite tight!

Yeah. That's my 3 point turn I have to do unless I want to back in which is tough (tree sticks out in my driveway making it very narrow at one point).

Is this photo intended to show the correction to the overlay issue? The issue we have is that when you hit the homelink button the selection menu extends under the camera view and you can't see the second and third door entries.
