[Helmuth]

Moderator note (bmah): Edited thread title for consistency with existing software update threads

are there any new, worth to mention, features in the newest detected fw 2018.10.4?
Anything new in the release notes?

Let’s hope it at least fixes the ecu reboots (if most of us get it)

Hope it’s a general release... I’m still on 2018.4

Yeah, the rollout slowdown from 2018.10 sure looked like 10.4 (or something) was coming! And usually the ‘point point’ releases don’t have new additions, if I recall... just under the cover fixes for something (like perhaps the MCU reboots, the overcharging, etc.). Those are never noted in the RN.

Time to ask SC why u r not getting updates.

It could be hardware failure (side camera) preventing upgrade prompt

 

[HussainSh]

I am still in 2018.6.1 hahaha

If you really meant 50 and didn't get either of 2017.50.2 or 3, I'd call the support number (main 800 number) and have them check your car for 'stuck update'. Virtually everyone got one of those in order to get Elon's Ho Ho Ho release. Nothing after that was really a full rollout. 2018.6.1 came close. As was mentioned, a hardware issue could be the cause, and there's no indication of it unless it's bad enough to cause another error.

SC is pushing to my car now and I'll let everyone know if there is anything new.

still pushing?

It was about a 40 min install. Release notes really only mention the new feature of opening trunks from app. I don't see any other changes. Haven't tried driving yet but will after work to see if there were any improvements.

Disappointing... Elusive parity...

 

[chillaban]

Yeah cmon already, just roll out the new AP update already!

 

[Pentium2004]

Sorry it wasn't anything exciting lol

That's what Tesla should be saying!

Usually true, though 2017.50.3 brought auto wipers.

I think everybody here should be slightly embarrassed to be so familiar with Tesla's firmware update history...

That is true, the 50's were Hohoho and wipers. I wonder if they snuck that in because they knew it was a semi-full rollout? This is worse than the old reading the curtains on the Kremlin back in the day.

Just got 2018.10.4 at the SC because my center screen wasn't ready to get out of bed in the morning when I was. I can now open the frunk and trunk with the app, so that's nice.
