Software update 2018.4.5

[vraev]

I don’t have anything plugged into my USB ports..yet the update still keeps failing. I think I used to be on the fast track for updates until mid jan when I made a visit to my SC. They said they reset the firmware to fix my MMC reboot issues. Since then, I guess I got bumped down a bit. Oh well.. hopefully won’t be stuck on 2018.02 for too long.

Looks like 2018.4.5 a1d9b92 was released. According to Teslafi a couple of cars have received it.

Anyone have this version? Please post pictures of release notes.

Got mine two days ago (2-12). Inconsequential changes. I was hoping for the rumored update to Nav, but nada. Changes are so minor that it’s not worth posting screen shots.

Moderator note: Split off about 20 posts discussing 2018.4.7 to their own thread. I'm not 100% sure if this was a good idea or not but 2018.4.1 and 2018.4.5 each had their own.

Gotta love the coding folks over there ....

Probably less coding, and more the delivery over cellular. CRC checksums get borked.

Most likely not. The cellular layer and the TCP layer makes the applications on top not notice much difference between cellular and wired. Corrupted packets are automatically discarded and retransmitted. Also it notifies the user about the update only after it is downloaded, it makes sense that they would check CRC/MD5 before notifying the user about the update. (so you can discard the entire update if it's wrong).

In my experience most software install failures on Tesla are due to some component/hardware not responding as expected after the update during self-check (such as the door sensors on Model X not working due to water-damage).

Mine has failed to install twice. Apparently it is due to a faulty door sensor; it’s being replaced by a Mobile Tech.

Mine failed twice too. I do have issues in getting the door to lock right away. Almost every single time, I have to open and close the door again to lock. I am going to try to visit the SC tomorrow.

Have others noticed a regression in USB audio with 2018.4.5? For a few glorious months I was mostly listening to music instead of watching my library slowly be rescanned. Alas, I'm back to mostly rescanning. Seems to coincide with the update. :-(

Just got software update 4.9 on my model 3 curious about why it would not go to 10.4 or higher?
