Doesn't that conflict with setting the target speed for Autopilot or cruise control?

Software Update 2018.39.x (Version 9)
- Thread starter PoitNarf
- Start date
I think the most useful thing about version 9 for me is actually be able to share address from app to the car. I get Yelp links (of restaurant) from my siblings all the time to meet them there. Now I could just click/share and walk to the car, the nav is set for it.
I think he misspoke about that. You can now slide your finger over the temperature control on the screen to the left or right to raise or lower the temperature. The steering wheel buttons and scroll wheels remain unchanged from previous versions as far as I am aware.

We got the 9 update last night and installed it this morning. Now the car doesn't work. 
Have the new screen but that is it. won't go into drive or reverse.
Contacted Tesla, they tried to force an overwrite, no luck. There dispatching a ranger to try and load it, or there having to tow it to Tysons. Vin # 97xxx

That's the problem your VIN is too high
Maybe the ranger will bring it some coffee to help sober it up!

That sucks. Wonder what happened. Good thing they are rolling it out is batches. Can you imagine rolling it out on all cars and 10 percent are down; poor rangers and SC and customer service calls...

Got the notification last night and tried to update but it failed and the car will not power up now. Had to tow to the service this morning.

Thanks for bringing this up. Well, no I didn't mis-speak about that, yet I should have been more clear.
If you press the menu button (on the right steering wheel column below the scroll wheel), and select "Temperature" as the default function for the scroll wheel, then you can control the cabin temperature with the scroll wheel. The display can still default to trip status or other things if you want and then temporarily displays temperature as you scroll the wheel. This function isn't documented so it is hard to discover for some folks.
To me, I rather use that scroll wheel for changing the temperature, yet I understand it is also useful for other functions.

I think I know what the confusion is here, I think you're speaking about Model S/X and @PoitNarf is talking about Model 3. Model 3 does not have temperature adjusting functionality on the right scroll wheel. Nor does it have a menu button on the steering wheel.
Model 3's right scroll wheel does Autopilot speed control and follow distance. In v9 it stays the same and so the swiping on the screen for temperature adjustment is a welcome change for us

TeslaFi pulls the info from the Tesla API, naturally, it needs to poll the car to provide to the info to TeslaFi. As far as I know, there is no direct connection from TeslaFi to the car and it is done through Tesla.
(The extent of my IT abilities is understanding Excel so someone with knowledge of what APIs are may be able to provide better insight).

Ah yes, that makes more sense. This is the Model 3 forum, let's not confuse everyone here more so than we already are!

Dude, this is the Model 3 forum. You can't come in here and gloat about the superior steering wheel of the Model S.

Eh just remind us how your turn stalk automatically dismisses after auto lane change.

The touch and slide worked on the old version as well except it was up and down and down only had about ¼" before running out of screen so was useless. Left & right slide is a welcome change.

You try tuning bluetooth on your phone off and on (has worked for me in the past) or simply using the key card (to eliminate phone issues)?
Yes, version 9 makes the Map display to always be the default display and only allows one other app to be displayed. I don't use the map app very often and now can't use 2 other displays of my choosing as I could before. Why would that change be made??
