... and liked the improvements from both over 2018.50.6 to everything except TACC / [email protected] phantom braking - it is very glitchy, making minor jerky speed changes almost constantly if there is any traffic nearby.

... and yet for others (like myself) we see none of this 'glitchy' behavior and it is all just smooth as it should be...

No idea why, but take some comfort in the fact that the problem you see is not something everyone is experiencing.

Got 2019.8.4 yesterday evening (after a day's driving with my mobile phone set as an hotspot and the car wifi connected to it).
Haven't had a chance to test it today, I simply checked for the release note and the screen is empty. Guess I'll have to reboot it.

Did ~110 mile drive yesterday post 8.4 update on my usual commute. AP does feel more smooth and so does lane changes but too much phantom braking! Sometimes just from shadows and sometimes while passing nearby cars. I am sure cars behind me thinks I am brake checking so as usual one step forward two steps backward.

8.5 with the new No Confirmation NoA looks like this on a Model 3.

Note: Not my screen.

When I was on 2018.50.7 my wife had both screens just go blank while sitting in a drive thru. The door handles kept going in and out until the screen rebooted. I opened a case but they didn't find anything. Since then I got 2019.8.3 and last night both screens just froze with no touch response. Didn't go blank they just froze like that during the entire trip until I was able to restart them. Interestingly the odometer never moved and did not report the mileage driven when it was frozen. I hope to get 2019.8.4 and see if that fixes the freezing once and for all. And yes even with 8.3 I too get phantom braking for no apparent reason.

Did an half hour drive under the rain, heavier at the beginning and lighter later on. The wipers are now rock-solid, perfectly timed to keep the wind-shield clean without overdoing it. Very good improvement!

This is awesome. Can’t wait to try it, the wipers have been getting better but sometimes very dangerous in my opinion.
