Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

[KyleDay]

Anyone know what the size of the update will be? I’m going to use my phone’s hotspot but I only have 6GB left so I want to make sure I don’t go over.

It's roughly 1.5GB between the MCU and APE firmwares that download one after another.

Past updates. Tesla software downloads are much smaller than the map downloads.

In my short Tesla model S ownership history I have received 3 updates, all of which occurred some time between 9pm and 5am with my car in the garage on wifi. The car was never plugged in. I have always connected checked off, energy saving mode off.

I always thought the download actually woke the car up?

What is your time zone?

There is no blind spot monitoring on the 3. Screen displays cars in front NOT at side or in back.

I think she may be referencing current firmware

Wow this is scary. Are you sure you have V9?

As it turns out the driver door on my X has completely failed, it can’t open at all but the system thinks it’s open. So maybe it’s a good thing for me the update is so underwhelming, I won’t have envy while it’s in service. Maybe 9.5 will be out by the time I get it back and we will have EAP.

You know about scroll-wheel reset, right? Try reset w/door open, and closed.

New owner. How do I check which version I have? Thx

Sigh. Tap Tesla T in top middle of screen. Window will pop up and show you FW version (probably 2018.XX.XX abcdef7)

It does have a really poor blind spot monitoring. It shows up as lines drawn around where it detects something. The color of what's drawn indicates how close it is with red being really close.

The UI is often delayed from when the object was detected.

The difference with V9 is it now uses the side rear facing cameras to detect cars. So instead of the boundary lines you get a physical representation of what's detected (bike, car, etc). It also has an improvement where it has the straight line if you hit the turn signal while it's detecting something.

Your post does point out a really good thing about blindspot monitoring on V9. People will actually know the car has it versus "what are these weird lines it draws?".

I'd still prefer traditional blindspot monitor with the indicator in the mirror. It is disappointing that the Model 3 doesn't have this.

Thanks, yeah did reset but literally can’t open the door at all so can’t do it with it open. Thanks for trying to help!

That is either a model of a rocket, a small flame thrower, or something to shove up someones arse at the SEC.

It's probably 36.2, what firmware are you on?

If you are on 32.2 then it's probably 36.2 but install it and see what happens!
