Software Update 2019.5.x

[Penfold]

Just seen 2019.5.2 c21b3a5 on Model 3 via TeslaFi so maybe this is the one.... how many times have we said that

Interesting there are two 5 releases and the early demos are from 5.1. And both seem to be still rolling.

Getting a new release on my X right now but bet it’s 2018.50...

Just got 2018.50.6 on my 2014 S and 2016 X. Unfortunately no love for AP1. Just romance mode and mobile seat heater controls.

I'm a little sad that Tesla seem to move on from AP1 customers. I have the AP2 and I already felt left behind when they only do stuff for AP2.5+

AP1 already hit max life already, no more love

I think the 2019.5.2 is an early access build. We have it on one of our 3’s. It is actually missing all of the new features from the 2019.5.1 build, but has some other changes.

Same and our 2017's are hardly 'old'

I got 50.6 last week to Mar 2017 (AP2) car. so it's not AP1-only thing.

If 2019.5.2 is early access, sure a lot of them on TeslaFi. Personally I doubt it but let’s see how this shakes out over the long weekend. I was thinking it was 5.1 updated for some of the bugs noted in the first reviews.

You'll still see the things the hardware can support. I'm sure we'll all be getting dog mode together once the new firmware actually starts rolling out to the fleet.

2019.5.3 now. I guess .2 wasn't quite good enough for us.

 

[boaterva]

Lol, hope this is the real McCoy! And promising that there are already 6 copies out there!

Edit at 9:30 ET: Up to 8 now. The bad news is they’re all Model 3’s.

Hope this is a release for all of us.

Still only Model 3’s and people still getting 2019.4 on MS & MX so who knows

I know you don't want to hear this but the truth of the matter is that Tesla is done with AP1. AP1 is not going to get any autopilot related updates anymore. Tesla broke up with Mobileye which made AP1 autopilot and Tesla is super busy with AP2 and AP3 as they try to roll out "FSD" soon. So AP1 is not going to get anything.

So what does Dog Mode require that AP1 doesn’t support?

Nothing. It's just that Tesla has apparently dropped support for AP1.

Nothing. It's just that Tesla has apparently dropped support for AP1.

And that is really sad considering how many AP1 cars are out there.

Yes, it is sad for AP1 owners. But as more and more AP2+ cars continue to be produced and AP1 cars are not being produced anymore, AP1 cars will become an ever shrinking minority. Eventually, AP1 cars will become a tiny fraction of all Tesla cars on the road.

Where does this idea come from?

We were still getting new features last month (control of seat heaters from phone app) on AP1 and Pre-AP Tesla's. Your doom and gloom post above is the only source I've seen that suggests older cars won't continue to get features their hardware can support...

Well, if you read my post, you will note that I was referring to autopilot related updates. I am sure AP1 cars will continue to get quality of life updates.
