Well, I can log in to the account just fine (running it on BlueStacks, thanks for that!!). Unfortunately, I don't have my car yet (supposed to be delivered today, got pushed to Tuesday). Man, I was so hoping Remote Access would have been enabled by default... could have watched my car make the trek across the country to Chicago! Still cool, though, that my VIN shows up correctly in the app window.

I tried all this, I see the Tesla Model S Beta and when I click install it only shows downloads for World Clock and 1S Compass?

Haven't picked up my car yet. When I log into the app, it shows my VIN but tells me that Mobile App Remote Access is OFF.
I know that my car is in final testing so maybe this isn't enabled yet.

Yup, same symptom here. The Android Marketplace seems to be there already (atleast shows up in the "Searching AppStores" dialog) but, the Tesla app doesn't show up there after I click Install. Tried it on a Mac and a PC. Oh well...
Had the same problem. You need to go to My Apps > Help. This will open a browser window. In the address bar, type play.google.com. Once it navigates to that page it will allow you to access Google Play and download the app directly.
Thanks! Tried a different tack: searched for "android marketplace app" and got some random hits in the rightmost column (for Android Market); picked one of them and that took me through the Google Play account setup. I could search for Tesla Model S there.
You have to install a new Android Marketplace app. Then it will automatically convert to Google Play.
Extremely interested/anxious to try this out!
Downloaded the tesla app on blue stacks.
Got to red screen where it says "TESLA, SIGN IN TO MY TESLA". Has login boxes asking for email and password....
BUT...it won't let me type into the boxes!!!
I am trying this on a MacBook Pro. (I have an iPhone and not an android).
any help would be much appreciated

Restart the App. I had the same problem. As noted by Brianman, this app is less than adequate.

This is what I did: Click on the Wrench and Screwdriver icon in the lower right corner and select Manage Applications. Switch Tesla to "Tablet". You can then type your username and password. After you get on, you should switch the application back to "Default", since the tablet mode does not work too well. You must restart the application. The easiest way I have found is to select "Location". This will cause the app to crash - and then you can run it again.Got to red screen where it says "TESLA, SIGN IN TO MY TESLA".

had the same problem, what i did was setup a proper account and then it all worked using google play (marketplace replacement?). I found out that i still don't have a VIN yet :crying:
Go to settings (bottom right corner in bluestacks), change the size for the Tesla app to Tablet and then restart the app. That let me type my username/password. But, it's all too big after (atleast it lets you login). Then, go back to settings and change it to the default size again. Now, it should show up in the phone form factor and work.
Boo... my car's perfect and charging happily but for the 21" wheels

Got it! Thanks
Seems to default to a large screen though. Anyone know how to resize it?

I love the new beta app. Works great on a Motorola Atrix so far. Minimal delay and easy interface.
Yes that would sure mess up final testing if you started flashing lights and honking he horn at them!
Thanks amigo!
Works great in tablet mode!
once it worked in tablet mode I could even switch back to phone mode and it seems to work fine! (It's just a beta version so we will cut it some slack).
My gps located didn't work though
I click it and the mouse cursor spins and then it takes me to the blue stacks app player home screen (with all of my apps).
Oh we'll...the lights and horn were fun...and tom am I'll test out the venting of the roof (and the climate).
Thx for your help everyone!!!! (And enjoy
are we a sad lot or what? I've always been a techie and I've always loved cars...but I've NEVER joined a forum and I've never obsessed over any of my other cars like this (or over anything really...not to THIS degree). Does the climate control aerosolize crack cocaine through the ventilation making our hearts race and keeping us coming back for more?!?!?!
